anyone ever play/complete this, it is the hardest longest game ever, i never completed it, its a megadrive game so you can't save, you have to start again from the beginning if you die, i have played it for 8+ hours straight and not even gotten half way though..

noisereductions 08.12.2010 07:32 AM

SS, that game's pretty rare actually. Wow. I never played that one. I played the NES game that was on a 4-game cartrdige. Um... somethign about an Island or somethign? Anyway, Dizzy has been in a rather impressive number of games. haha.

it seriously was soo hard, and after 10 hours of playing you could just die and that would be it, it sucked

noisereductions 08.12.2010 08:03 AM

hahaa Dizzy is like a crazy underground series. Check it:

Games in the series

[edit] Core series

198619871989199019911992[edit] Spin-Off games

These are games which feature Dizzy but have puzzle or action oriented gameplay which is substantially different from that of the main series.
1987199019911993[edit] Compilations

1992
  • Dizzy's Excellent Adventures
    • Kwik Snax
    • Dizzy Panic
    • Dizzy Down The Rapids
    • Dizzy: Prince Of The Yolkfolk
    • Spellbound Dizzy
1993
  • The Excellent Dizzy Collection
    • Go! Dizzy Go! (Previously unreleased)
    • Dizzy the Adventurer (A renamed conversion of Dizzy: Prince Of The Yolkfolk)
    • Panic Dizzy (A renamed conversion of Dizzy Panic)
1994
  • The Big 6
    • Dizzy: Prince of the Yolkfolk
    • Crystal Kingdom Dizzy
    • Fantastic Dizzy (in an enhanced AGA version)
    • Treasure Island Dizzy
    • Spellbound Dizzy
    • Magicland Dizzy
The Excellent Dizzy Collection (available on the Sega Master System and Game Gear) was originally intended to include the 9th game in the core Dizzy series, Wonderland Dizzy. However the Codemasters marketing team were unhappy with the idea of two similar games in the same package, and it was decided that since Dizzy The Adventurer (a renamed Dizzy: Prince Of The Yolkfolk) was already almost completed and was generally agreed to be the better of the two games then it should be the one included. Following this decision work on Wonderland Dizzy was effectively halted. Wonderland Dizzy's place in the compilation was taken by a conversion of Dizzy Panic. The third game in the pack was Go! Dizzy Go!, an action-oriented game which had not been previously released.
[edit] Games available on cover tapes/disks

1986
  • Dizzy - Crash Special Edition
1987
  • Treasure Island Dizzy - Crash Special Edition
1988
  • Dizzy - Amstrad Action Special Edition
1990
  • Easter Eggstravaganza (An Easter themed variation on Fast Food Dizzy given away with Amiga Action magazine)
  • Dizzy 3 And A Half - Into Magicland (A short game which acts as a prologue to Magicland Dizzy)
1994
  • Christmas Dizzy (Given away with the January 1994 issue of Amiga Power)
[edit] Unreleased games
[edit] Parody games
This game featured similar gameplay to the Dizzy series (although the game was much shorter) and stars Giddy, an egg very much like Dizzy except that rather than wear boxing gloves he simply had very large hands.
There was a sequel, Giddy 2, also on Amiga, and a third game, Giddy 3, made in 2000 for DOS, then ported in February 2009 to Windows, Mac OSX, Wii, AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS.

noisereductions 08.12.2010 09:47 AM

yuck.

I had a TJ&E shooting game the Genesis also. It came with the Menacer light gun. You shot tomatoes at stuff.

screamingskull 08.12.2010 09:47 AM

i think they should have just left it alone

noisereductions 08.12.2010 09:54 AM

like most 2D to 3D conversions. Yes.

screamingskull 08.12.2010 09:55 AM

if it's possible i think the graphics on the xbox game look worse than the megadrive, ha ha ha

shabbray2.0 08.12.2010 05:01 PM

^^oh yes they do!!!!
I recently played Toejam & Earl 2 with a buddy of mine, and it looks awesome.

right?

atsonicpark 08.12.2010 05:47 PM

I sold Toejam 1 and 2 many years ago and made $50. So, that was cool.

I've been playing these games for the past 12 hours...

 

Finally got a burnt Tomba to work for the psx. It's fun and clever, albeit a bit clunky. TOMBA 2 is pretty terrible. These are 2 more games I sold a long time ago and made $100! Weird that an ACTUAL COPY of Tomba won't work on my ps2, but a burnt one will. Anyway...

 


WOLF FANG! This game is awesome, kinda like a Mega Turrican for the psx...

that looks terrifying

atsonicpark 08.12.2010 06:07 PM

it's a cool little 2d sidescroller from the creator of ghosts n goblins/ghouls n ghosts. It's got some rpg elements and lots of nifty clever weird little puzzles.. you can jump into the backgrounds and whatnot..

screamingskull 08.12.2010 06:09 PM

i really want to get a playstation 1 and the first Tomb Raider game and also this which i loved

 


cutest loveliest game ever

atsonicpark 08.12.2010 06:12 PM

it said no hotlinking allowed but the link says it's croc.

I'm in issue 101 of ultra game players, which has croc on the cover! ...

I have the Tomb Raiders for the pc.. if you get a ps2, get Tomb Raider: Legend, it's just the first Tomb Raider remade... the best parts of it (vast landscapes, clever puzzles, minimal music) without the clunkiness. Tomb Raider 1-3 rules imo.

screamingskull 08.12.2010 06:14 PM

i loved the first tomb raider, need to get a playstation fo sho

atsonicpark 08.12.2010 06:20 PM


 


I guess that's Lara Croft now.

screamingskull 08.12.2010 06:22 PM

Her hair isn't dark enough, but she's got the weird shaped head thing down...

Also, CROC and especially CROC 2 were both amongst my favorite games back in the day.

Edit: I just realized that I actually still have my original copy of Croc. Well, gonna have fun tomorrow :D

atsonicpark 08.12.2010 07:44 PM

Well, just burn it to a cd-r -- it's only 100mb or so -- and use a swap trick and you can play it again. It's simple.

TRAP GUNNER is so awesome -- where has this game been all my life? I can't wait to play this 2 player.. setting bombs up and blowing my friend up and shooting him.. cool.

Really ? Does it work on a PS2 ? I don't have my Playstation anymore, unfortunately...

Ah, well, good then ! But I've seen videos on youtube of guys doing swap tricks on a PSX.

atsonicpark 08.12.2010 08:11 PM

There are swap tricks for PS1, PS2 (fat and slim), and PS3.. all extremely easy to do.

I use a fat PS2.

noisereductions 08.12.2010 08:39 PM

 


the only hockey game that might rival NHL 94 (Gen/SCD)... this is basically 94 with realistic graphics and audio. Wow.

the original pincho 08.12.2010 09:03 PM

I am playing some zygna games.

noisereductions 08.12.2010 09:06 PM
