A list of all the games (from Wikipedia, sorry) and some indepth reviews of each title: Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle – great! Alien Storm – rubbish! Alien Syndrome (arcade) – OK! Altered Beast – rubbish! Bonanza Bros. – OK! Columns – Not as good as the Master System version! Comix Zone – great but hard! Decap Attack – amazing! Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine – great! Dynamite Headdy – not as good as it used to be! ESWAT: …
Dwayne’s special “power” GET! Jacob’s special “power” GET! And, thanks to finally getting hold of Brucie and taking him out loads of times, Brucie’s “power” GET! But I still can’t nick cars for Brucie, even though his like for me is now 94%. GTA Glitch WatchAside from Brucie’s not-sending-me-emails bug, the game stops working every time I try to got for a heli ride with him. I call him up for one, drive to his house, and the game “takes …
I can’t believe how mediocre this game is. Yeah, Rare have pulled some real stinkers out of the hat before (Grabbed by the Ghoulies anyone?) but this was so hyped, and so long in the making (it was originally a N64 title!) that it’s amazing that it was released in this, clearly unfinished, state. Earlier today, I posted this at rllmuk: I’m five hours in, and have just done the catapult bit. Having no proper way of rolling the ammo …
Hmm. I’m seeing some real problems with this already. Didn’t they bug-test it at all? The ball is forever getting stuck on, in or under things. The worst big today was while I was playing online against someone, and he was winning. Then, on one of the Wild West holes (the one on the train station platform, I think), his ball was launched up in the air and just stopped dead. In mid-air. And stayed there. It kept spinning, but …
No, I didn’t sneeze. According to “resident” of #spin (a super top-secret geeky IRC channel, for super top-secret geeks, and me) Tom-Cat: Galaksija is a Z80 based computer built in ex-Yugoslavia during the best computer years (80’s 😉 ). I have no idea what it is. At all. Anyway, Mr Cat (I’m not really on first name terms with him) has written a Galaksija emulator. For the Spectrum. As you do. I downloaded it, read the Readme (which didn’t really …
Stupid sleeping Chris had to be woken again today. I’m sure I’ll wake him one day and he’ll bite off my face or something. Trained him for a bit, and taught him Jump and Spin. I also had to re-teach him Sit, as he refused to understand what I was saying to him. Then I took him for a walk, which went on for ages as he stopped every five seconds and refused to move any further. Shouting his name …
Really plowed through this today, and I’m now up to World 7 (out of, it seems, 8). In fact, I only stopped playing due to the battery in my DS coming close to running out. Things are getting somewhat harder now, with lots going on at once to worry about – things flying at you, electrified walls, spinning spikes and all sorts all at once. Luckily, there are plenty of restart points, and lives are easy enough to pick up. …
