There was also a Japanese-only Mega CD version, wasn't there?

This is a truly cool idea. That's awesome. Could you put me in for Slayer? Man, I don't know how to say how much I like this idea without coming across as ungrateful, you know? I dunno. It's always been my biggest issue in life is popping words out properly but this is some brilliant stuff you're do...

I had this one as a kid and I could just never quite get into it. I'll give it a shot again if I ever see a copy for cheap I guess but I dunno. It seemed like it could've been something better than it turned out.

So I was thinking today, (A dangerous pastime, I know) and I'm not sure if it's a legit thing or not. I'm a pretty big nerd as it is and a few years ago, I got the Atari logo tattooed above my left wrist. It's a decent size and really easy to notice if I'm not wearing long sleeves, so there's no hid...

I was gonna tell a story about how I've played wrong but not on purpose but then I remembered this isn't in the General section.

Well now you have to tell us! You can't hold out on us like that!

Okay, so I know I can't be the only person who does this. Often times, I play games completely differently than the developers intended. This is my favorite example. When I play Theme Park, I have to resist the temptation to simply take out a massive loan and pave the entire park, save for two outho...

5. That is a problem, for games like "D" you don't reset you open the lid (I hope that's what you meant) while the game stays in RAM waiting to read the second disc. I guess it's not a huge deal as I'll still have three other consoles that will have CD drives in them. I would imagine D would work s...

My first official review! Don't be too cruel! So I just got this game in the mail yesterday and so far, I really really really like it. It's simple, sure, but it seems more like Alone in the Dark than Doom to me. You have twenty shots and you better make them count, as I've found out in that STUPID ...

It may be the biggest hole in 3DO's library. I know I sure wish there was a good shump ... heck I'd settle for an average one.

I'll just settle for the lobster. At least it's a touch of weird.

What about the lobster game on Fun N Games? I loved that one as a kid. I also haven't played it since I was a kid so maybe it hasn't aged well but my nostalgia wins over logic!

Blue's Journey is a fun little game for the Neo Geo. Not typical of the consoles library, this platformer is very bright & colorful, has a nice bouncy soundtrack, and (best of all) 2-player co-op. Smile Yeah, that's a solid little game! I completely forgot about that one. I bought that on a whim of...

... Why is Jane wearing a corset to a job interview? Must be an issue with the core CPU emulation. If i was a woman, this is how i would get jobs. I have a pretty good CV, but if i could shortcut all the stupid questions, endless interviews and tedium, and if i thought it would work, i'd wear a cor...

I've never ever noticed Gex repeating quips in multiple succesion on any level. During the course of an entire level he repeats some of course, as many levels are a good size, but over & over the same one ...? If it is a legit bug, it's gotta be limited to only certain copies. I was playing it last...

I'll be watching, hopefully winning a few bucks here. I've got like $10 riding on the Giants. We'll see how poorly that goes. So what 3DO game are you gonna buy w/your $10? :wink: Heh, already purchased those "Secrets of 3DO Books" or whatever they're called. I got both of them for $10 after shippi...

The core of the game is roughly the same as far as I can tell. It basically got the "CD treatment," much like many games ported to the Sega CD did. The core of the game is roughly the same, yeah, but the game feels so vastly different from the original version. It honestly makes a BIG difference. O...

Now that I've got that bit of pedantry out of the way, as to what I would consider meaningful exclusivity: Even though I'm very much a console gamer, I generally don't consider games such as Star Control II to be exclusives. The presentation between console and PC just isn't different enough. That ...

The 3DO version has cool victory parade footage when you beat a map, which really makes you feel awesome! :) The psx version has ... Lou Gehrig's farwell address ... :? It actually ends up switching between a couple of other video clips if I remember right... Gah, I know it changed but I can't reme...

Nuts! Guess I'll keep going at it and see what happens. It's a pretty neat game, I gotta say. It hasn't held up amazingly over the years but it's a really crazy reminder of what 1994 was like for video games. I'm not sure anything else represents the "NO. ADD MORE BLOOD. NO. I SAID MORE BLOOD" stuff...

I remember loving this game as a kid, so I threw in my copy this afternoon to give it another shot after a long while and I for the life of me can't figure out if there is an end goal in the game or not. Is it just a really early sandbox game to get fares, buy weapons and blow everything up? I don't...

I love the bejeezus out of Return Fire. The only bit of it I've played on 3DO was the single player mission on one of the Interactive Sampler discs, so I can't comment too much on the 3DO version but I've owned the PS1 version for years. I remember my neighbors renting it when I was a kid and when I...

Star Control II is available on the PC (yes, it counts, especially now that you can download it for free it run it on any machine these days) Couldn't the same be said of all games with emulators then? Not to mention that The Ur-Quan Masters is pretty different from the old 3DO version too. Some th...

Are you sure about that? I'm having more fun throwing around Star Control 2 references.

Star Control references? *JUMPING PEPPERS* WE ARE HAPPY *CAMPERS*.

C'mon, you know what I meant. Smile The game is kinda fun, again, not grade-A entertainment, it's certainly made very poorly, but I appreciate it's horribleness to some extent. Nah, I actually get what you're saying. I'm a big fan of some of those "outsider musician" folks, like The Shaggs and Shoo...

Ilwraths ... I think you mean Dill-rats. Don't yuubuu?

My wife swears by her DS, and plays Zelda, Professor Layton, and I'll admit to playing Nintedogs but...

Convince your wife that the Nintendo DS is simply a Tiger Game.Com rip-off. Both have touch screens. What else do you need?

I'm pretty sure it was about Ilwraths Don't Wear Thoraxes.

I'm on to you, mister; you're just trying to take away attention from yourself. A very loose-tongued Melnorme happened to tell me about a fender bender you got into in which your flagship's glove compartment popped open and spilled its contents. At first your crew assumed it was just photos of fire...

Virtuoso fan, eh, Trev?
