Re: Games Acquired 2024

Robocop 3 (SNES) -$11.89AUD / $7.74USD via eBay While not an amazing game, I was utterly obsessed with Robocop as a kid (well done with the R rated film for a kid mum) and always wanted this, I have played it in the years after, but happy to own it. I picked it up for the price because it had 'labe...

Re: Random Thoughts Thread

Yeah, I think that'd make for a cool article. Interesting topic of discussion for sure. It's got me brainstorming on other examples.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread

Alone in the Dark is actually the only reason I own a 3DO...and I don't own the game for it. I only have three games for my 3DO and sadly this isn't one of them either. We need to change that! I really respect Alone in the Dark. It was Resident Evil before Resident Evil. Sadly, though, and like man...

Re: Genre of the Month (MAR 2024 TR) - Brutal Beat 'em Ups

Regarding SNES beat 'em ups, my two favorites when the console was in its prime and still hold up are Turtles in Time and Super Double Dragon. The Mode 7 effects in TMNT are awesome. It's always fun to throw characters towards the screen, really unique inclusion in this one! And the difficulty is ac...

Re: Games Acquired 2024

I added The Punisher for the Sega Genesis this afternoon. The Punisher has probably been my most wanted Genesis game for several years. Unfortunately, when the Pandemic hit the Retro Gaming Market, the price shot through the roof and I thought it would be gone forever. However, thankfully, prices h...

Re: Genre of the Month (MAR 2024 TR) - Brutal Beat 'em Ups

I'm a big fan of beat 'em ups as well, and I'm glad this is the topic for our March discussion! Totally agree with prfsnl on the genre being accessible and a good way to introduce people to classic gaming. Like many others, my favorite game in the genre is Streets of Rage 2. I'm sure you could tell ...

Re: Random Thoughts Thread

The They Create Worlds podcast just dropped an episode on the creation and context of Alone in the Dark. It’s quite a fascinating story. Thanks for the heads up on this, I've gotta give it a listen. My cousins had Alone in the Dark on the 3DO back then! It was a memorable experience for sure. Would...

Re: Games Beaten 2024

Overall, I really enjoyed Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando. It has been so long since I played the first one, so it is hard to compare them. But, I really liked the improvements in the game as it made it easier and the challenge was a bit more fair. The game is nothing ground breaking, but if yo...
