I remember playing a game called Commando on a arcade machine? Though I'm probably wrong and this a game with a similar name, but has nothing to do with what I said.
Yep finished the article nothing to do with my nostalgia.
Update: This comment says it all from the linked site.

It's not the Commando arcade game, CouchPotato. The Commando game you speak about is more like an action game, from Rambo times. Yes, I played it too
In the Commandos games (from Pyro), you lead a squad of men doing infiltration missions in the World War II setting, where each commando has unique abilities.
Yeah figured that out after reading the link, but I have so many fond memories of my local pizza joint playing that game in the late 1980's and early 1990's.It's not the Commando arcade game, CouchPotato.

Yes, that one!
I'm pretty sure I can hear its MIDI music playing here, next to my ears

Do you mean this music?

Actually, no
I was referring to the arcade song theme (I never played a C64)
That one:

I had this back in the day for my commodore, lost quite a few hours in it. A new game in this genre would be good.
Guys,
The thread IS NOT about the old C64/Arcade Commando game. It is about the Commandos series from 1998 to 2006, please see link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commandos_(series)
The thread quickly derailed to Commando arcade/C64 game, but now I'm putting it on the right track

Maybe Kalypso will buy rights for Commando too (and hire Arnold for voice overs) so we are actually on track, just ahead of time.
BTW: that C64 music is better than arcade version.
one of my favorite games of all time.
Slap 'em back into line, henriquejr!The thread quickly derailed to Commando arcade/C64 game, but now I'm putting it on the right track
Anyone ever play Heavy Barrel? Similar format. That game was nuts.

Yeah I remember Heavy Barrel, but I didn't care for it as much as I enjoyed Commando.

Kalypso do not have the funds to release proper products, they get closer and closer to the crowdfunded scene in this regard.
Products are released at 50/60 pc completion stages.

C64 didn't use MIDI music
Anyway, I love Commandos - especially the second one. If they keep the coop multiplayer, this could be neat.
