What Genesis game are you playing right now?
R.O.T.S replied to MagitekAngel's topic in Sega Genesis
No I cant even get past Level two lol ,but I will keep playing it for sure. -
Some other arcade ports I enjoy are- Alien Storm Marble Madness Toki Wonder Boy III-Monster Lair Golden Axe Paperboy Hellfire Zero Wing Master Of Weapon Air Buster
-
I have laways liked the game and are not bothered which port to be honest although I find the Intell one a little rough,I do recall actually playing this in the arcade somewhere..way,way back.

I think mobile emulation is absolutely the wrong way to go and many people have already abandoned it a long time ago,if you look back there have been many poor controllers from the power glove ,Roll n rocker to the U-force but I still favour those over a mobile touch screen,unless you like playing Candy Crush puzzle games it is simply impractical and frustrating. IMAybe some mobile platforms with much larger screens may be a little better but you still will be faced with the same controller problems,I know a few retro gamers and we have already tried this and without a controller in the hand I can safely say the statement "These platforms already enjoy a number of emulators for various systems" is very puzzling to me and invalid.

I like some of the detail in Impossible Mission with the droids and such , also I will say MS Pacman and Tower Toppler.
-
Raiders Of The Lost Ark ,Chopper Command,Haunted House,Space Invaders,Asteroids,Pacman,Pele`s Soccer and Pitfall! , past and present friends from school and a time when life was far less complicated...Amen.

Cosmic Ark and Joust -
Here in the UK and in what I would call a low income area I noticed nothing,my mother was a single parent and as a 12year old in 1983 I already has my first console an Atari 2600 and if I remember correctly I would of got my first computer the Zx spectrum in that year.via a shopping catalogue. I obviously relied on my mom to purchase me a game whenever she could which was not often but she did the best she could and I was gratefull for that, I certainly do not recall shop shelves and floor baskets overflowing with third party cheap games that is for sure.
-
This is not too bad at all and I look forward to any future changes,it might just be me but it seems more aggressive than the original.
-
Ranger - X Played this originaly not long after its release and It looked good but It all seemed a little clumsy to me, I have revisited it recently and for some odd reason I got straight into it. So i would not quite say I love it but it is growing on me real quick.
-
I just had a go and quite enjoyed it,controler always hurts my hand playing this lol .

Consoles you just can't get excited about
R.O.T.S replied to Rick Dangerous's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I have an interest in most systems to some degree upto the Dreamcast/GBA and very little interest in anything after that or current gen,but to answer the question I think the system I have the least fun with would be the Intellivision as try as I might I just struggle to play the games more than a few minutes. Great fan of the Intellivisionaries podcast and (as with other retro systems) any history connected to the system and its games of course but I just struggle to get interested while playing most Intellivision games for various reasons. -
Personally I found most of the original release games were quite shallow and had poor gameplay with Scramble and Berzerk being the exceptions,as already said above there is some interesting stuff going on in the homebrew scene though. Some interesting examples are Patriots,Gravitrex,Vectrexians,Vector Pilot and Protector.

(MEGADRIVE) Ranger-X (AMSTRAD) Biospheres and either Aero Fighters 2 (NEOGEO) or UNIWARs (ARCADE) I am not too sure as it was a few weeks ago

What Genesis game are you playing right now?
R.O.T.S replied to MagitekAngel's topic in Sega Genesis
Just Ranger-X recently,but I think a lot more of it now than when I originaly played it back in the day. -
If Atari made a new console, what would it be called?

Manticore -
I had no idea the arcade Warlords came after the vcs , that means the arcade version has even less excuse. You know I had forgotten about Vanguard which is sort of embarrassing as I own an arcade cabaret of it , yeah I recall it being a pretty good port especially with the music although I have not played the Atari version for a few years.
-
Yeah i remember this game being a little challenging along with a few computer ports , I like the marqees and the cab is an interesting shape almost like it wants you to really lean into it lol.
-
Great achievement, I spend too much time looking at the amazing desert horizon graphics lol. If I got a score like that I would have those coloured bands burned onto my retinas.
-
For me personally Warlords is by far the best and I would say Kaboom and Breakout are the worst.
-
If I remember correctly I used this (Quickshot Model no:QS-128F ), I do like the original vcs atari joysticks and remember cramp very well back then. Even stranger things can happen like people suddenly getting urges to bite the end of their stick :/
-
Berzerk and Phoenix are the top direct translations for me , Frogger,Space Invaders and Galaxians next. Warlords on the Atari 2600 actually seems better than the arcade although I have only played the arcade version through emulation of course.
