I guess I can see that. I want more vehicle mayhem though. A city on tracks is fine but there needs to be lots more racing around. Oh, and a guy with a guitar chained to a car made out of speaker cabinets. Yeah!
I'm deciding to not talk to every darn character in a town this time. I know I'll miss stuff, but it's not natural. I want it to feel like a real adventure.
I almost returned to it today, but I had achievements to finish in Minecraft with my friend Mark.
Yea, no one's really memorable except the one character who is barely human, the resurrected. That's not good.
Yea, and it was therefore impossible to just figure out without going to the manual. I'll read it sometime. I got a lot out of Star Raiders a year or so ago when I finally read the manual and figured out what to do.
I had a 2600, but when the 5200 came out, my parents got an Apple IIc. After that, us kids were getting ready for college, and so I never got another gaming console. I had a Mac Plus on my way to school a few years later. I played some games on that, and I still went to the arcades. I returned to console gaming probably around '95 when the Playstation came out.
I really wanted the manual from Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen for SNES when I played it. It was not easy to figure it out without one.
I like manuals too, and get all excited if one comes in a new game today, but I've been trained by modern games to expect an in-game tutorial and not have to read anything. Some of these old games really need a manual to help you figure it all out. The graphics are sometimes so abstract, you can't readily tell what to do.
Aside from the ones you mentioned, I can't really think of any that were better on NES. Most of the ones I played were either just ok, or bad.
Environment seems to matter with film. I've watched the same film with different people and even different crowds at a theater, and got totally different experiences.
Apparently Howard Scott Warshaw (Yars, Raiders, ET) wrote it but it was never released. Also, like you said it was retooled as a A-Team game but that also was never released.
Lucky Switch owners. 150 games all in one.
I tried Final Legacy. It seemed like a cool game, but I couldn't figure it out on my first try. I'll have to, "gasp", read the manual.
