yeah thats the only system it came out on sega saturn :) was a japanese game did quite poorly here still i loved it and played it for hours and hours and hours and hours
I remember when I was a kid reading about it in some video game magazine, I was drooling over the graphics. I always wanted a saturn and an atari jaguar, maybe one of these days.

American, and Japanese versions both on Ebay.. American still sealed in the box is up for sale as well but pricetag is a tad high - to be fair though, the game was quite rare in the big picture. I guess it'd depend on how much you trusted used copies of it, and how much was budgetable to obtain it.

games sucked back in the days they where decent enertainment, but games now days... they are much better. but still i think the storylines of older games where much better and that some remakes with up to date shit should be made. my favorite game of all time has to be half~life and star craft brood war on some shit dial up laggin like a mother fucker.

I've been playing Clash at Demonhead lately, and I just beat Fallout 1 for like the 4th time lol. Anyone else playing any old school games?
Just dug out my trusty Colecovision thanks to this thread. Blew off the dust and fired up some mousetrap!! lol Yep, i was one of those kids. Spent so much time dreaming about when or if the day would come where i could be a proud owner of brand new Atari. Then that day came..or so i thought. I got the word my pop's was on his way home, with a new game!!! Could barely contain myself!! Jumpen outa my socks as he pulled in the driveway..he's waling up the sidewalk..HE HAS A BIG BAG...sets it on the table..im pissing myself at this point!! I ripped that shit open and yanked out the box and...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I was like wtf is this?!?!? He say's COLECOVISION!!!..the guy at the store said this shit is state of the art!! I grabbed what looked like a big t.v. remote with a weird dial on it and a retarded number pad. Hooked it up..and was immediately depressed lol. Only kid i knew anywhere that had a Colecovision that nobody wanted to play. I basically felt at the time like it was just a sick cruel joke to rune my life ha. Now i just realize i was spoiled lol. I actually have fun playing now!!! 30 years later..

thanks to years of stocking and shelving things i have an arsenal of retro game systems, i just have half the games i used to have for SNES, N64, genesis and playstation. right now im playing eternal champions and compared to mortal kombat, their fatalities seem way more disturbing than i remember.

when i was a kid the music on river city ransom tortured my mom half to death. that and a boy and his blob. i heard a rumor that if you timed it just right you could get the blob to eat a ketchup jelly bean. i never did pull it off. was that bullshit or what?

I never put much time into a boy and his blob, was a funny game tho. Not sure about that rumor.

Festers Quest was another one I liked to play for some reason.
