Re: Good Dreamcast Games??

If you can get a large milk crate (one that they ship 4 one gallon jugs in) then you can pretty much get all of the Dreamcast releases in that and it will take up very little room (you may have a few spill over but still, better than having all 300 loose). I have a few CIB DC games if you are intere...

Re: WWE Legends of WrestleMania

There are rumors that Macho Man will be DLC for the game (part of this is because the Macho Man DVD is back on). It could happen, if enough people complain, it will happen.

Simpsons Hit and Run and Simpsons Road Rage are pretty good single player games.

Re: Good Dreamcast Games??

Pretty much just about anything by Sega on the Dreamcast is worth getting. Other games of interest, I enjoyed Shadowman (not really everyone's cup of tea but I liked it), Project Gotham Racing (that was the name of it right? The racing game by Bizarre Creations), Virtua Tennis 2 (not a big tennis fa...

Re: Games that were previewed in gamer mags...

Panic! also had nudity (one scene has your character simply covered in bare boobs). According to the gentleman that runs Sega CD Universe, Panic! was released in the US. http://www.angelfire.com/ny/dezmoowu/segareviews2.html You have to scroll down to Panic! for his view on the game.

Re: Friday the 13th 3D

Looks good. I may try it out.

As far as the game ideas, they are pretty cool. What would the gameplay be like? Like the Clock Tower series or Resident Evil? Imagine a scary stealth game like Splinter Cell but you play the hapless guards and it is Jason coming out of nowhere to kill you.

Re: Best books on Video Game History?

Gates is to me the equivelant of Game Over, taken with Fire in the Valley (read Gates after FitV because FitV just covers Microsoft as another player in the bigger story but it is still interesting). What I loved about Gates was that apparently BG tried to push to have certain things taken out or ch...

Any fans of this RPG from the fun days of computing? I was a big fan, still play it a lot, of The Dungeon, hardly played The City. Addicting and extremely hard.

Re: Were you ever in a video gaming magazine?

I have some of the early issues of the second run of Electronic Games and will check and see if I can find the one where they reviewed Zap. Also, what was your name displayed in the EGM issue? I may be able to find that too.

Definitely one thing is for sure, you couldn't level a blanket comment at Raider of the Lost Ark on 2600 as being just like every other Atari game (like a shooter game, or a maze game).

Re: What was it like for SONIC fans and have no game until DC?

Well, on 32X there was Knuckles or something or other, can't remember the name right now and Sega CD had, well, Sonic CD. Then on Saturn they released the Sonic compilation but then left out Sonic CD. So it wasn't all boredom and nothing to play for the Sonic fan. One game per system/add-on. The Gam...

Robo Warrior, any other fans?

I am a big fan of Robo Warrior for NES, anyone else like this game? Sure it was a little one sided as you really just bomb stuff and shoot the occasional creature. Interesting little fact, it had multi jointed bosses made of many sprites before the Genesis came along (I remember Treasure saying that...
