I've been playing Rapid Angel

 


Super obscure, I haven't found any info on it whatsoever, but it's amazing.

 


 

 


FUN AS HELL

al shabray -- you still wanna do that trade for the Game Genies? Do you need both? Or do you want 1 GG and that boxed Gen Arcade Classics?

shabbray2.0 10.21.2010 01:39 PM

^^for comix zone?
I got it still packed for you :) I really dont need it, because I own the original genesis release, so yes I would be definatel up for the trade, otherwise I would sell it on ebay, I think.

its the demo disc that was included when you bought the bulky first playstation!!!
I dont know why, but this thing is like all the PS magic included in one disc. this cheesy 90ies mentallity.
there are some cool playable demos on it like tekken 2, and battle arena to shin den I think. also some fucked up music visualizers and some "look-how stroooong-the PS-is" "playable" graphic gimmicks like a full 3d animation of a walking tyrannosaurus rex, which you can let run faster, open the jaw and fuck around with the camera.
I was pretty blown away back in the days when I first recognized how packed that disc was and I am still coming back to play it :)
it was the own good picture Ive found in a hurry, my version is green/black

I just beat comix zone last week.

atsonicpark 10.21.2010 01:45 PM

I just went to the store and bought MAKEN X (dreamcast; was playing it the other day but the version I downloaded fucked up when I got to a certain cinema, I got it used for $5) and 3 ps2 games: CHAOS LEGION, NEO CONTRA, and ZONE OF THE ENDERS: 2ND RUNNER (to replace the copy my friend borrowed and lost). Neo Contra's the only 3D Contra that's fun, Zone of the Enders 2nd Runner is a masterpiece/Kojima's best game.. and I've never played Chaos Legion but it looks incredible. Altogether, I spent $29. Not bad!

Joe, if you get a chance, play MAKEN X. It's fun. It's by the Shin Megami Tensei game! It's not really like any of those games -- except for the music and the maps... weird.. some of the locations.. anyway, it's a FIRST PERSON SLASHER.. you BRAINJACK, where you enter into peoples minds and shit.. some of the locations and enemies look like Metroid Prime/Other M.. pretty weird. Fun game! It seems like it'd get repetetive but yeah. If you like PN03, it's kinda like that (albeit being first person), in that there's really not much to do, you just kinda do it, it offers cheap thrills with little depth but what's there is kinda masterful, and the game is cheap as hell.

^^zone of the enders: second runner is indeed awesome.
I recently played it and I was blown away by the stunnig graphics the PS2 could provide. the 2 player battle game is pretty fun too, even if its not that deep.
btw check my previous post for the explanation of the mysterious PS disc Ive posted before

damn how is that girl called on the maken x game?
she is from a SMT game, I am sure!!!

noisereductions 10.21.2010 01:49 PM

yeah al, you want 2 Game Genies or you want a Game Genie and that Genny game. I don't remember?

atsonicpark 10.21.2010 01:50 PM

Oh, it's KAY. She does look like she's from an SMT game..

Speaking of next gen Contras, I read that this game is hard..
 


I thought it was the easiest Contra game since the NES one! I used to think I was lousy, or average, at games, but I've never had much problems with Contra or the Mega Man games, or the Devil May Cry or Ninja Gaiden games... so, I must be better than I thought.. hahaha.

I do think ALIEN HOMINID is hard as hell though! I think that's the toughest last-gen game, definitely!

Also, Ikaruga is hard. I've put so many hours into that, I can get to the last level, on normal, but I've yet to beat it. Boo :(

Tanks for the mystery disc explanation. Always looking for more ps1 games. I've discovered so many badass PS1 games lately. ADVENTURES OF LITTLE
RALPH and INTERNAL SECTION are both pretty much unknown ps1 games but definitely the 2 best games on the system, so fucking awesome.

this thing is really kinda cool. especially the t.Rex. If I remmeber right you can use him as a screensaver while listening to music....

noisereductions 10.21.2010 02:04 PM

I love Alien Hominid. I actually have the GameCube and GBA versions.

ink. 10.21.2010 02:52 PM

I spent like two hours playing a boy and his blob the other week. Then I remembered why I got sick of the game.

noisereductions 10.21.2010 02:57 PM

yeah that game is hard. I have the sequel for GB -- Rescue Of Princess Blobette. :)

ink. 10.21.2010 03:10 PM

rescue a princess in a video game whut?

I'm playing through Super Mario World again. I used to just do the main levels and then beat Bowser at the end and call it a day but I'm really trying to complete it 100%. I had never been to the Special area before tonight!

after you are through that area be prepared to see the world in "autumn" mode and all the koopas wearing mario masks instead of shells, and the plant are from then on: pumpkins.

this is a major-video-game-experience for me since the early nineties. unbelieveable flashback. the only one that is on the same level is the connectivity of sonic 3 & Sonic & Knuckles, where some hidden levels will be unveiled to connect both games when you play through sonic 3s last level
