General Retro Chat / Remake of Sega Gargoyles game
September 14, 2022, 19:04:08 PM
Hi guys,

Haven't posted in a while but just looking people's opinions on this remake.

I loved the cartoon as a kid and was disappointed that I could never play the game because it never came out in my country.

Is the game actually any good and will a remake be worth it?

Hopefully it gets a physical release.

Retro News & Chat / Perfect Retro game night.
April 18, 2022, 22:30:16 PM
Hi Guys,

Have not been on here in a while but a conversation I had recently I thought would be interesting to put on this forum.

Rules are simple. You are hosting a retro game night and can only have one game per console you own (imagine you have enough TVs to have them all on at the same time if don't already) which games do you pick?

Below are my picks:

1. Mega Drive - My first console is a mega drive and the game I would pick is Micro Machines V2. A racing game is always a good place to start plus this game has the infamous J-Cart which allows for four players without a multi-tap.

2. PS1- Second console is a PlayStation and for this one I would go with a fighting game and what else would you pick but the classic Tekken 3. I personally think it is a perfect fighting game.

3. PS2 - For my PlayStation 2 I am going to cheat a bit. I am going to pick TMNT 3 because it has the SNES classic Turtles in Time in it. Also it is great as you can use a multi-tap for four players.

4.Wii - This one is easy for me. Got to be Super Smash Bros. The Wii has a lot of games that are great for a party but for me smash is the best.

5. XBOX 360 - Got to have a sports game somewhere so I think putting a games a FIFA on the Xbox is best. Probably would pick FIFA 08 or maybe FIFA 15 because I just like the stats of the teams I support in those games.


6. Switch - Finally for the Switch I would pick Mario Kart 8 simply because you can't go wrong with good ol' Mario kart.

I am sure a few guys on here can come up with much more interesting choices than I.

Was thinking about this and thought it would be a good topic.

Which games that came out on two generations of consoles where significantly better or worse on an older console.

One I remember being a whole lot worse is the ps1 version of Tony Hawk 4.

It was just high score and high score to progress whereas I remember playing the GameCube version which had unique challenges to do and a bit of a story.

One I heard is better on the previous generation console is rodeo the sky soldier for wii but I never played Any version of it.

Can anyone think of any other? We all know graphics will be better on newer consoles but I was thinking of other aspects like gameplay to story etc.

Sega Chat / Power supply issue with megadrive
December 08, 2018, 19:49:06 PM
Hey guys,

Quick question,

The socket for my megadrive power supply is loose. I usually have to put the game box underneath the power supply cable to get my megadrive to work. Does anyone know if this issue is fixable?

I will post up pictures when I get the chance.

Sega Chat / Why did the MCU video games stop?
May 27, 2018, 22:47:35 PM
I recently just played through the sega video games based on the Marvel Cinematic Universe (Iron Man 1 and 2, The Incredible Hulk, Thor,Captain America)

Iron Man and Thor = Bad
Hulk=OK
Captain Merica = Great Game

From what I can tell all the games made money and the last game was Captain America which was really enjoyable. I always wondered why Sega stopped making the games. I reckon a guardian of the galaxy game would have been great.

Anyone know why they stopped?

And is there any MCU properties that should be made into a video game?

Arcade & Pinball Chat / Budapest pinball museum
March 15, 2018, 23:13:25 PM
Hey guys I have not been on this in a while but thought you lot might like this. Was on a holiday in Budapest and they had a pinball museum there where you could play all the machines. We had a blast there. Here is a few photos of the place. Definitely worth a visit if you are ever in Hungary. They also had a few arcade machines such as the Konami Xmen and mortal kombat and of course pac-man

Sony Chat / ideal roster for PlayStation all stars 2?
September 28, 2017, 13:34:08 PM
There is rumours of a new all stars. Who should be on the roster.

For me it is:
Kratos
Sly cooper
Crash
Spyro
Raiden from metal gear
Heiachi from tekken
Big daddy
Nathan drake
Rachet and clank
Jak and daxter
Dante
Spike
Sweet tooth
Ken from street fighter
Paul pheonix from tekken
Kye or Sol bad guy from guilty gear
Parappa the rapper
Batsu from rival school
Kaijin no saki from onimusha
Sir Daniel fortesque

I have been realistic with my thought but which characters that originated on playstation should be in their attempt at smash bros?

Did anyone get a 'retro' game in the steam sale this week? I got jet set radio even though I have the GBA version it just is not the same as having full 3d :)

Watch mojo recently rared what they felt where the best fighting games of all time. Do you guys agree? Usual watch mojo rule of game per franchise applies.

https://youtu.be/pUYYChF1-Bs
#10. Virtua Fighter Final Showdown (2012)
#9. BlazBlue Calamity Trigger(2008)
#8. Killer Instinct (1994)
#7.The King of Fighters XIII (2010)
#6. Soulcalibur II (2002)
#5. Super Smash Bros. Melee (2001)
#4. Tekken 3 (1997)
#3. Marvel vs Capcom 2: New age of heroes (2000)
#2. Mortal Kombat (2011)
#1: Street Fighter 2: Hyper Fighting

Honourable mentions went to Guilty Gear x2 (2002) and Dead or Alive 2 (1999).  I personally would switch guilt gear and blazblue because I prefer guilty gear and without guilty gear there would be no blazblue. I am also surprised snk vs Capcom or Capcom vs snk did not get a mention or tatsunoko vs Capcom although tvc is more less the exact same as marvel vs. capcom. Do you guys agree with the list?

Decided to take up a small challenge of grabbing as many dreamcast games for the consoles that I have. I have GameCube, wii, ds psp and gba. So far I have:

Sonic adventure 2 - GameCube
Crazy taxi - GameCube
Jet set radio -  GBA
Power stone - psp
Samba de amigo - wii
Capcom vs snk 2 - GameCube
Guilty gear x - GBA

I know shenmue won't happen but I will just grab shenmue 3 on pc when it is finally released. Other games I can think are skies of Arcadia which I will see if I can grab for GameCube. Amy other major dreamcast titles that got ported am I missing?

Nintendo Chat / Underappreciated GBA games
May 04, 2017, 10:12:12 AM
Personally I don't have a lot GBA games but one I really like is called STAR X. The best to describe it is Star Fox for GBA. What other games do you guys think are not talked about often?

I'm looking at buying a new GameCube fighting game. I already have smash bros but as far I can tell the best ones are CapCom vs Snk or Soulcalibur 2. Does anyone have any suggestions or hidden gem worth a go? I don't like mortal kombat or dragon ball z so would be grabbing them.
