Berzerk review. Classic Game Room reviews BERZERK for Atari 5200 from 1983. Relive the classic Berzerk from Stern on your Atari 5200 with awful controls thanks to the horrible Atari 5200 squishy button joystick that utterly destroys the intense gameplay found in Berzerk. This game cartridge is easy to find and affordable for Atari 5200 and looks and sounds great. Berzerk for Atari 5200 even has synthesized voice dialog that insults you as your player battles waves of aggressive robots and Evil Otto! CGR Berzerk video review features Atari 5200 gameplay of the Stern classic, Berzerk!
Video Rating: 4 / 5

Stylish combat that is as challenging as it is exciting provides the backbone for this great role-playing game. Read more: www.gamespot.com

    I don’t remember evil otto telling me to bite his cock, or calling me a chicken in the arcade!

  6. eklipsegirl November 23, 2011 at 2:55 am

    @trkoby no, it says: “Chicken, fight like a robot”. Nuff said.

  7. Tricob1974 November 23, 2011 at 2:59 am

    @cheznar – Hey, that’s cool. I try very hard to make my messages fit in one post, and it ends up being a bit wordy sometimes. :-)

  8. blacklipsandcorsets November 23, 2011 at 3:35 am

    I played this with my trackball and it was a lot of fun when I was younger but with the controller very difficult!

  9. SheIIyDeKiller November 23, 2011 at 4:32 am

    The thumbnail for this video looked like an ass, lol

  10. gp75motorsports November 23, 2011 at 4:40 am

    @trkoby If you listen closely, it’s not “you can bite my cock, robot,” it’s “Chicken! Fight like a robot!” Just thought I’d point that out for all the people who think it’s “bite my cock, robot.”

  11. omar7132 November 23, 2011 at 5:33 am

    the music in the end is so pleasant

  12. cheznar November 23, 2011 at 5:59 am

    @Tricob1974 my apologies I got lost in a sea of words….I see what your saying now…

  13. SpetsnazFP November 23, 2011 at 6:11 am

    Evil Otto is the Wal-Mart mascot in their commercials. The bane of the small business.

  14. Tricob1974 November 23, 2011 at 7:09 am

    @cheznar – There was a 2600 Berzerk in the Atari market, yes. But the original version never had digitized sound. Someone hacked into it and added digitized sound later, in the emulation days. :-)

  15. TankT9 November 23, 2011 at 8:01 am

    Nods Cabal beta version, now we know where he get his humor and need to kill humans.

  16. trkoby November 23, 2011 at 8:58 am

    LOL I think I see a youtube poop being made… sentence mixing anyone?

  17. chairuser4 November 23, 2011 at 9:25 am

    @trkoby I think it said cock block alert

  18. marfeno November 23, 2011 at 9:40 am

    you can bite my cock robot XD LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

  19. haseo18615 November 23, 2011 at 9:52 am

    4 people were killed by Evil Otto.

  20. timetakesawhile November 23, 2011 at 10:38 am

    @trkoby Actually its ” Come back and fight like a robot”!

  21. makedaevilmage November 23, 2011 at 10:45 am

    DAMN this looks like an awsome game ! <3 the computer like voice its awsome!

  22. spacexploder November 23, 2011 at 10:58 am

    love the game cover. classic game

  23. cheznar November 23, 2011 at 11:14 am

    @Tricob1974 what do you mean it was never commercially released…I’ve had this game on 2600 since my youth its one of my favorites too….or am I sitting on something special?…

  24. MattTheSaiyan November 23, 2011 at 11:47 am

    I wonder how this game plays with the well-regarded 5200 track-ball controller.

  25. wildbilltexas November 23, 2011 at 12:25 pm

    Nice review. AtariAge has a 2600 version with voice enhancement. I played it with the Stella emulator. It has 3 phrases but only plays them after you leave the room or get killed. It also blanks the screen when it talks.

    I totally agree on the 5200 controller. Didnt Atari do ANY beta testing?
    I remember in ‘the day” Wico made a 5200 controller with a separate keypad, but it was very expensive.

    RoF reminds me of Valkyrie Profile

  27. Neosaigo November 23, 2011 at 1:12 pm

    @BadAlternatives RoF is not a game for everyone. They do not tell you the story outright. Each mission give you a piece of the story (not in chronological order), and you have to piece the story together. Some people dislike that and rather story be told like a bed time story. Personally I like this type of story telling, it is a refreshing change from the standard RPG storyline design.

  28. peaceoflove18 November 23, 2011 at 1:16 pm

    is it just me or is that a FF9 moment at the beginning*

  29. peaceoflove18 November 23, 2011 at 1:41 pm

    is it just me or is that a FF9 moment at the beggining

  30. BadAlternatives November 23, 2011 at 2:33 pm

    A mediocre game in my opinion. The combat system and world map are kinda cool, but not brilliant, and pretty much everything else about the game had potential, but never really made an effort. The greater story for example made small, almost guest-appearances here and there. Too little to even spark a genuine interest. Too bad since it still had the potential..

  31. TehZealSeal November 23, 2011 at 3:30 pm

    @devilxx3 I’m just saying it as an example, I have known them to put down amazing games.

  32. devilxx3 November 23, 2011 at 4:28 pm

    @TehZealSeal why halo? It’s awesome. There some really bad games. *cod*

  33. SuperMicklovin November 23, 2011 at 4:44 pm

    So if you don’t have these ruby things you can’t play anymore if you die ? WTF

  34. lompocus November 23, 2011 at 5:13 pm

    I hate these big-name reviews now. Seriously, it’s as if each reviewer goes out of their way to pander to the simplest watchers. (Of course, this category makes up the majority of the viewers. Damn you, world!)

  35. TheDDD194 November 23, 2011 at 6:02 pm

    @anthony555100 Resonance points are required to do “Tri attacks” (if you don’t know what they are tell me,) you get them when you cross between your two other characters when you do a hero action, if you don’t do a hero action when you built up resonance points you will lose them

  36. anthony555100 November 23, 2011 at 6:08 pm

    Ok the tutorial doesn’t give full info so if anyone can explain resonance points and how u get them please send me some info to this point I still haven’t pulled off a tri attack I’m up to chapter 3 right now

  37. trilfy November 23, 2011 at 6:18 pm

    @KelanX i don’t belive i’m that great cause i haven’t gotten to new game +. and do you decide your difficulty when you start over again?

  38. KelanX November 23, 2011 at 6:25 pm

    @trilfy cocky?

  39. trilfy November 23, 2011 at 6:54 pm

    @KelanX yeah but most people that complain never got to new game + yet. they complain that they don’t know what to do and the tutorial doesn’t help them at all but when i started playing i was already good at this game then most people.

  40. KelanX November 23, 2011 at 7:11 pm

    @trilfy try playing the game on new game+ without your weapons and do neverland… Then you will see how hard it is

  41. TehZealSeal November 23, 2011 at 7:46 pm

    @ItsSomeDeadGuy couldn’t agree more.

  42. ItsSomeDeadGuy November 23, 2011 at 8:04 pm

    @TehZealSeal IGN has a bad habit of giving middling scores to games that aren’t heavily advertised on their site.

  43. TehZealSeal November 23, 2011 at 8:56 pm

    @morpDprime Mmm Somebody seems upset :p

  44. morpDprime November 23, 2011 at 9:22 pm

    @TehZealSeal
    TehZealSeal: I’m gonna leave a dumb comment on gamespot’s youtube.
    Me: why?
    TehZealSeal: Because I’m a butthurt fag who get’s offended about other peoples opinions about a dumb game.
    Me: Go kill yourself…
    TehZealSeal: Great now I have to think of another “witty” response my brain can’t handle the stress.

  45. trilfy November 23, 2011 at 9:25 pm

    omg this game isn’t even hard! you guys just fucking suck at video games!

    This game looks Awesome tastic, and 60+ hours of game story… hell yeah, I’ve found the 2010 sleeper and of course it was over shadowed by final fantasy… Square Soft!!!!!!!!! it’s aggrivating
