liveinabin #1 Posted November 5, 2001 A query to all you rabid collectors, Its recently come to my attention that Xenophobe (apart from being quite good) is PAL only, are there any other good PAL exclusives that are worth playing? Oh yeah, is SSSnake by Data Age any good? Saw one today boxed for a fiver (borderline expensive) Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liveinabin #2 Posted November 5, 2001 hmm, just checked this site and it seems Xenophobe is available in (rare-ish) NTSC form. Oh well - anyway - question still stands. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Atari #3 Posted November 5, 2001 "Wing War" I think was PAL only, it's not bad. BTW, "Xenophobe" ROCKS. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lemmi #4 Posted November 6, 2001 Sssnake is a ok game , but i found it kinda boring after awhile, but if its boxed i would still pay 5 for it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liveinabin #5 Posted November 6, 2001 Cool, thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
digitalpress #6 Posted November 6, 2001 1) Why is someone recommending Sssnake, quite possibly the worst pile of dung ever produced for the 2600 - in NTSC or otherwise? 2) Agreed on Wing War. I also like Forest by Sancho, which is PAL only. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liveinabin #7 Posted November 6, 2001 now i'm confused. Everybody battle it out and I'll make my purchase decision based on the bodycount Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atarinvader #8 Posted November 30, 2001 Klax is amazing. And 32 in 1 is a great idea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dwh #9 Posted November 30, 2001 I'm glad I already have my copy of Xenophobe,now that everyone wants one.As for SSSnake--do not have a hammer nearby when you try this game!Also, I wish WingWar was NTSC,it looks cool.All the good last few games made by Atari in the early 90's were mostly PAL.The European collectors have it made...

Ze_ro #10 Posted November 30, 2001 Some good PAL games: Xenophobe, Motorodeo, Fatal Run, Klax, 32 in 1. Xenophobe exists as NTSC, and Motorodeo does too, but both are very rare (NTSC Motorodeo rates a 10!) Oh, and Sssnake really does suck. Play the ROM if you don't believe us. However, depending on what the prices are like where you are, it might be worth it anyways (I'd probably get it) --Zero Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lemmi #11 Posted November 30, 2001 heh i got sssnake for $1 at a flea market but if i saw one now for $5 boxed w/manual i would get it, and find something creative to do to the other cart haha ok i thought of something, i would send it to Stanjr if he does'nt have it to torcher him Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ubersaurus #12 Posted November 30, 2001 It's been forever since I went game scrounging. But then, it's not like I have the cash, with christmas shopping and all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
