Robert Garcia, which reminds me that few people read the full article.

"The stunningly fluid animation of the characters is due to SNK going with rotorscoping techniques, used previously in such genre defining games as Karateka, Prince of Persia, Another World and Flashback."

You just mentioned some of the games that defined my early gaming.

Re: Review: The Flame in the Flood (Switch eShop)

LemonSlice

"What isn't quickly apparent about The Molasses Flood’s debut title is that it actually details the harsh reality of survival. Hunger, thirst, sleep, broken legs and bear attacks, it's all part of a world that is constantly trying to knock the player down. This sense of realism is spot on and is The Flame in the Flood’s greatest strength, and conversely its biggest weakness."

Do you even hike bro?

"So we want to salute Nintendo and wish them another 128 years of success so we can all celebrate the 256th birthday next century."

See ya all in Heaven when that day comes, guys. Hope Jesus joins in on the fun.

@Gauchorino @Thulfram To quote the question, as well as provide a further answer, a recorded live orchestral soundtrack has to be stored as, well, audio; while MIDI is stored as, well, MIDI data (note and automation information, very small) and the synth engine together with instrument samples (can be very small too). MIDI takes up less space, so could be that, could also be some licensing issue as well.

Re: Review: Metroid: Samus Returns (3DS)

LemonSlice

" The Game Boy version could be completed in around four or five hours: indeed, beat it in less than three hours and you got to see Samus in a bikini (look, it was a different time back then)."

Indeed, there was a whole lot less of that kind of thing. (;

Re: Fear Effect Is Being Remastered On The Nintendo Switch

LemonSlice

People seem to forget this was maybe the first game to use cell-shading, which made it look very different from anything else at the time. So yuri wasn't the only thing that made the game interesting, but it certainly made me happy (and horny). The gaming magazine in Croatia even released the sexy massage promo image (if you'll remember that one) as a poster. (:

Re: Dragon Quest Builders 2 Confirmed for Nintendo Switch

LemonSlice

Bought the original for my nephews, they'll be playing it when they come home from holiday. I hope they'll spend more time on World of Final Fantasy, but at least it won't be Minecraft. (which they aren't playing on home consoles, but I still felt I needed a safety net)
