We have done Jaguar, Lynx, and 3DO. So here are some for another highly under rated machine, the Sega Mega CD:




Rogue Trooper

Bloody'ell Laird, your creaming through the stuff i sent, tempted to send the rest of it at this rate (joking, will give you time to cool your scanner down lol).

That Battlecorps review is something else that really P**ED me off with C+VG reviews, fantastic game, made stunning use of the hardware, gets a very worthy score (92%) and yet review cramned into a mere page, few lines of text, reviewer comments, score etc.

Deserved a lot more space i feel.

Shadowrunner

Agreed, Battlecorpse is a great game! Core really were the savior of the system.

Had the utmost respect for CORE, they really tapped into hardware like the MCD, 32X and Saturn and were not afraid to praise the platforms when others just mocked them.Really wish they'd updated Battlecorps on Saturn, no idea what sales of MCD game were like though.


Just seemed a pity as BC Racing and Thunderhawk got new instalments or updated versions on more powerful platforms, but not Battlecorps.Never went much on Blam Machine Head nor that Tank game on PS1/Saturn (who's name escapes me), Ninja and Swagman i had on Saturn, but still feel their best days were on ST/Amiga/MD+MCD.

Sorry, it is not a Mega CD game. Surprised me, that it was so far along in development and not released!

Of course it is, Mega CD and Sega CD are the same thing.

Cool! I did not want to post US reviews without checking.

LOl, it's not YOU, it's the bloody browser, if i said the PS3 browser lets me zoom in far better, would that explain how SHI*E this is for this function? lol.


Lairds got lot of the pages i tore out, hence the scans on here of late, but poor sod has NO idea just how many more i've yet to send LOL
