Re: ESWAT: City Under Siege

NeoShinobi

This game may not look like much but its actually pretty good, kinda like Rolling Thunder.
This is also available in Sonic's Genesis Collection on the PS3/360 if anyone's interested.

Re: R-Type

NeoShinobi

Looks really impressive. I never really played R-Type all that much, but this deffinetly looks like a quality port.

And, MY GOD, the box art is actually decent (for an SMS game).

Re: Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine

NeoShinobi

This game was... decent. I played a fair amount of it on the Sonic Mega Collection.

Actually, I think what I enjoyed most about this game was the music, and the refrences to the "Adventures of Sonic" cartoon.

Re: Review: Dragon's Lair II: Time Warp (DSiWare)

NeoShinobi

@Crunc: Its not really supposed to be a game though. If you went ito it expecting it to be a triditional game then obviously your going to be disappointed.

I was really interested in this since Don Bluth is one of my favorite animatores. But I don't think I'll even bother with the DSi versions... plus I don't even have a DSi.

Re: River City Ransom

NeoShinobi

This is quite possibly my favorite game on the NES, or atleast its in my top 5. Its been a while since this came out on VC, but I still hope we see more Kunio Kun games on here.

... or at the vary least they could give us Double Dragon II.

Re: Review: Faxanadu (Virtual Console / NES)

NeoShinobi

I wasn't sure what to think of this game when I first played it. The controls were kinda stiff and I had no clue where I was suppose to go. But it seems like the game gets alot better if you commit to it. So I'll deffinitely consider downloading this once it hits the NA VC.

Re: Review: Sonic Colours (DS)

NeoShinobi

Since I wasn't a vary big fan of Sonic Rush, I'd much rather play the Wii version.
But this does look pretty solid I suppose. I might pick it up when its cheaper.

Re: Exclusive: Nintendo Bringing Back WiiWare Demos

NeoShinobi

Its a little sad that so many people are getting this excited over a feature that really should have been here since the start, or atleast since last year.

What's also sad is I don't think I'll even be able to get my Wii connected again any time befor Christmas...

Re: Review: Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 (WiiWare)

NeoShinobi

An 8/10 is about what I expected. I never expected this game to be on par with the Genesis titles anyway.

I'm also vary glad to hear that this isn't just Sonic Rush on the big screen, that was probably my biggest concern with this game.

I'll likely be getting this on PSN in a week or so.

Re: Nintendo Power Claims Sonic 4: Episode 1 Will Cost 1500 Points

NeoShinobi

Do all the episodes have to cost the same? How knows, the first one may cost $15 but the second could cost only $10. Either way, I might just get this on PSN instead since it could possibly be cheaper.

And to the people who are saying this game better be as good as Sonic 2 or 3. It wont. You should just save youself the dissapointment and accept that. It doesn't really matter what Sega does, Sonic 4 will not be as good as the Genesis titles. Thats not to say it will suck. I think Sonic 4 will turn out pretty good, just not Genesis good.

Re: Super Mario Bros. was Gaming's Big Bang, says Kojima

NeoShinobi

@NintyFan: What exacly did Donkey Kong start?

@JimLad: I hope your aware that Super Mario bros. really only popularized that style of game design. There were plenty of "progressive adventure" type games that existed long before Super Mario Bros. It wasn't all just about scores, even back then.

Now I'm not trying to bash SMB. I'm just saying that its alittle ignorant to say that SMB "created" modern gaming.

Re: You Can Stop Waiting for Worms: Battle Islands on WiiWare Now

NeoShinobi

This WILL be a budget title, so it obviously won't cost more then $30. This doesn't really bother me at all. I'll just pick up the game when it goes down to the price that it probably would have been on WiiWare.

@Token Girl: This is not the same game thats on PSN/XBLA. This game has some completely different gameplay modes and features.

Re: Review: Star Fox: Assault (GameCube)

NeoShinobi

I actually really liked this game. The vehicle missions were fun and the on-foot missions didn't really bother me too much. I had alot of fun with the multiplayer to.

This is deffinetly not the worst game in the series, Star Fox Command was way worse IMO.

Re: Donkey Kong

NeoShinobi

I actually enjoyed the Atari 7800 version more than this. Don't really know why though, the 7800 version still only had the 3 levels. But I think the levels had a bit more detail, and the graphics were a bit crisper.

Re: Rolling Thunder 2

NeoShinobi

I have such fond memories playing this game with my friend on his Genesis. I've never played the first one, and I didn't even know there was a 3rd one until now.

This game is a true Genesis classic that never really got the recognition it deserved.

Re: Review: Custom Robo Arena (DS)

NeoShinobi

I've always wanted to play a Costum Robo game. At first, they seemed like nothing more than ripoffs of Sega's Virtual On. But, I'd imagine Custom Robo would be easier to play since you wouldn't need a special controller to play them properly.

Re: Burning Fight

NeoShinobi

I also played this game on one of those SNK collections on the PS2. I love a good beat 'em up and this one was... okay. Its no Final Fight, but I'd take this over the SNES port of Final Fight any day.

If your not much for this style of game then this is deffinetly not going to win you over.

Re: Castlevania

NeoShinobi

A legenary game. But also one of the weaker ones in the series simply because of how frustrating it can get IMO.

The music is awesome though.

Re: Archie Writer Reveals Sonic Colours Comic, Hints at New Characters

NeoShinobi

I don't see what everybody's getting so worked up about. There are plenty of characters that only appear in the Archie comics.

I also don't agree with anyone who says that the only good supporting characters are Tails, knuckles and Robotnik. Pretty much all the characters that were introduced in the '90s were good (excluding Big the cat). Its just a shame that most of them were forgotton.
