Aw man, I'm a sucker for isometric games in general... I want it!

Oh man. Has anyone actually seen this ever? I'm actually drooling.

This looks well old school, those characters look groovy too.

Are there loads of these "unknown games" floating around? I assume they all came out of the far East?

What the...!

It looks like Syndicate.

And Syndicate was a damn good game.

3DOKid should write about it... 'cause...
well, he's the one ya know.

indeed I am - but, erm, yes. Short of taking six months off and hanging round downtown Seoul - anyone got any bright ideas.

Hey guys... not dead yet

It's been quite some time since I've been round these parts - good to be back !

I do believe I have this game. If I can locate it (never did get around to completely going through my imports) I will make sure 3DOKid can review it if he so desires.

Did anyone grab the pictures that was on that page? 3 years have passed and the page is gone *sniff*.

This game is even harder to find info on than Oilman, theres squat.

Edit: Managed to find some pics!

I wouldn't say it's harder to find info on Battle Blues than Oilman as at least with Battle Blues you can find pics of the game and manual. Try doing doing the same with Oilman.
Although, I will be posting info on Oilman shortly for those interested.

These were posted on this forum before, but it's good to have them here in the thread about the game.

That's not his stuff. Those are just pics that he gathered from around the net over a period of time.

I'm not seeing the problem here.

So, when do you leave?

Thread resurrection. Why you ask? Because I got a copy of it!

Korean only exclusives:
Armageddon CHECK
Battle Blues CHECK
Eye of Typhoon (damn, only the PC version)
Firewall CHECK

Three down, one to go.

Cool. Where and how did you get them?

Unless more Korean games are discovered ...

Like 3DOKid, I'm curious how you finally acquired this? Id also love to hear your thoughts on it, maybe see a youtube vid, etc ... man, I'm full of requests aren't I ...

Congrats on landing a rare find!

bitrate · Post by **bitrate** » Sat Jul 02, 2011 4:51 pm

I finally got a copy myself. I think we know the same person 3DOExperience.

Mine is disk only. Did yours come with manual or anything?

I made this video for people who are curious of the game and like me have been waiting a loooooong time to see it in action

HAHA! I wouldn't mind that as long as they are good games. I can't reveal how I got it (in public anyway) Same goes for Armageddon, Firewall on the other hand I can't remember

I believe it was through a trade. That memory may not be permanently lost as it is a bad few weeks for recalling things.

Thyroid has been acting up (if that's possible) my blood pressure has been messing with me for the past few days too.

Yeah bitrate, mine is disc only as well. I'm sure we got it from the same collector. I'm surprised you don't have a complete one personally.

I thought I had a copy years ago, but was never able to locate it. On a trip to japan back in 2002 I bought a huge lot of 3DO software and I was sure that Battle Blues was one of the games in the lot. I haven't had any luck locating it though.

I just got my disk the other day. Haven't even had time to play it yet. Ackmed has an account here too, but has only posted a few times.
