I'm playing Gate of Thunder for on a Turbo Grafx 16 CD emulator. I get up to about stage 3, then I keep dying and losing all my power ups. So far I think Lords of Thunder is a better game, but it's still pretty kickass.

I keep failing on the last level of MUSHA. The feedback isn't the greatest when you take a hit and go into the two seconds of invincibility, especially if you were using the blue weapon (so you might not even notice).

I always die there, too. I've never actually beaten it.

After playing some of the better Turbografx CD games, I think I can see Sega's logic for releasing the ill-fated Sega CD.

How is Ghost Blade HD?


I have been hacking away at Jamestown again. I still can't beat the last stage with all of the environmental hazards plus enemy bullets. There are a couple of sections that feel damn near impossible!

Hoo, boy. I remember working through Jamestown when I first got my gaming laptop. That last stage was tough! I did manage, but at times, it did feel impossible.
