Metroid 2 is cool and puzzling but can get a little too confusing at times. I havn't played fusion or zero mission but what i do know is that fusion has better presentation overall. But if you enjoyed the first metroid, zero mission is one you should really consider.

Yowzer Bowser! You think Metroid II can be confusing at times? Wow, what do you think of the original Metroid non-linear exploration of a quest with no map or hints to aid you?
Also, if you have not played either Fusion or Zero Mission how do you know which one has a better presentation? I have both and Zero Mission is better anyway you take a Ginsu knife and slice it.

I'm reallllly interested in the Gargoyle's Quest franchise, all thanks To Ryno and Nintendo Life's 3DS VC GB Review

Anyways, I'll be checking out Gargoyles Quest on the 3DS's GB VC this month, but i wanted to get Gargoyles Quest II for the NES as part of my Halloween Gaming spooky Fiesto for this October. How does it stack up the GB original?

I never played The Demon Darkness and don't know anyone who has so I would like to hear from someone as well! Scary how closeHalloween is, Waveboy you got that Capcom Craze Club costume ironed and ready to go yet?

It's not SEGA's answer because Konami made both.

I still found it pretty fun, mind you it wasn't as good as TMNT4 but it was good.

So I'm interested in Total Carnage for the SNES. I hear the arcade version is better though, but all the people back that up with is the arcade version is bloodier. Is there anything else? Is the SNES version worth it?

dont play Total Carnage until you play Super Smash TV for SNES.
Total Carnage was sort of a "sequel" to Super Smash TV and some folks will tell its better

I now Total Carnage is a sequel of sorts to Super Smash TV. I've only played the arcade version of Smash TV though.

Tasuki

Its not so much a sequel but more of a spiritual successor to Smash TV. I played the SNES version of Total Carnage years ago cause I loved Smash TV on the SNES. All I really remember from Total Carnage is that I really didnt enjoy it as much as Smash TV.

So how different is the original Goldeneye from the Wii version? I unfortunately never played the original, but I played the Wii version and... :I I, uh, wasn't too impressed. I can see why it's popular, but was the 64 version any better?
My friend's control was messed up though...maybe that's why I didn't enjoy it too much.
Anyway decided not to get Total Carnage. I'll just pick up Smash TV if I ever come across it.

Tasuki

@Retro: Actually its not that different IMO. Yeah the graphics are early blocky polygons but what do you expect from that era. Gameplay wise its pretty similar to the Wii version but the levels more closely resembled the movie. I would put it on par with other FPS of that time like Doom so if you were a fan of that you will like GE.
