They say even a busted clock is right twice a day. Likewise, even dud games can occasionally surprise you with brief instances of brilliance or admirable glimpses of creativity. Here are a few misplaced memorable moments marooned in games the world would largely rather forget.
Back during the Cold War, if you wanted to make a movie featuring Soviet equipment in some capacity you couldn’t just wrangle some spares from the Ruskies. It was fair enough on their part, to be honest. You probably wouldn’t lend your neighbour your lawnmower if you knew he was going to set fire to it making a short film about how much he hates you.
So filmmakers improvised. Sometimes they did it quite well; apparently the original 1984 Red Dawn’s replica T-72 tank was such a precise knock-off that, while it was being moved across LA, a pair of CIA officers tailed it to the studio and wanted to know where it had come from. Because maybe they suspected shipping empty tanks to the MGM lot was how the Soviet invasion of the US was going to happen. It’s hard to say. Cocaine was an immensely popular drug in the ’80s.
