bentper2 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 What an awesome game and scroll is complete smooth. It just kicks ass. Anyone else tried it? Must be some awesome programmers that made it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_afternoon Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) I agree, it´s one of my favourites and a Lynx-must have since it´s one of a kind. Great gameplay, too. When I got it I was really happy and played it for hours that afternoon. I think I wrote a bit about my impressions last year in my "Lynx Newbie" thread from September 2010. Carl Forhan from Songbird (he wrote the missions and did the cutscenes, the rest was inherited/bought from the Battlewheels-programmers) is a longtime member here and wished me goo dluck There are still 2 missions I have not accomplished yet.

chris_lynx1989 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) Yeah,this was a neat title that was coming out in Sept. '93,right on the heels of Battle Wheels that came out in June '93.It used the same engine that BW used for graphics and such. I couldn't get into CV like I could BW though.I liked the action and explosions and variety of BW more.I'm picky. It wasn't horrible.Beyond Games did some neat stuff for 19/20 yrs ago and along the lines of Epyx and Atari.Too bad the other 2 games like these never made it out.

Willard Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) CyberVirus, Raiden, Pounce, Hyperdrome & Fat Bobby are a couple titles that I've been wanting for awhile but haven't quite bought yet. Still have to build up my lynx collection with a few other commercial releases first (Battlezone 2000, Road Blasters, Checkered Flag), but will probably pick one of them up before I go on a trip next Edited February 24, 2012 by Willard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_lynx1989 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 You're not missing much on one,Willard. If you can get past holding and viewing your Lynx vertically,then Raiden is neat. Pounce is an "okay" or meh demo in the Viking Child vein. Fat Bobby is neat and fun. Hyperdrome is a BLAST with 4 players! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariLynx Lover Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) Can you please stop posting so many topics, Bentper2? You've created 10 in less then two months, I've started two in the same time period. Maybe you could make one big Bentper2 thread for all your thoughts and questions?

chris_lynx1989 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 He may just be an enthusiastic Lynx owner. So was I,up until 2005.After Apr. '05 arrived and I got into PSP,I stopped being SO enthusiastic. I'm sure they're not trying to be a thorn in your side on purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is great that Bentper2 is so enthusiastic and is building up a great collection of games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

108 Stars Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 To be fair to AtariLynxLover: There really is very little moderation here on AtariAge, for better or worse. I agree that it's not too much to ask to use the search function ans check if a similar thread already exists. At AA a lot of threads really are similar to others because nobody bothers to search and the mods don't care. A bit of research before starting threads would make AA an even better experience, just because all arguments on a topic can be found in a single thread then. This is not meant to bash bentper or something, just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
