Split-screen.com: "You look at some old games and it becomes easy to quantify their merits. Leaning back on stats, fighting rosters, millions of polygons per second and play-balancing helps us identify the core game engine. Tack on a few personal experiences and you essentially have a game journalist's recognitions of a classic. Some titles grant an equal recognition to the gamer - "old-school", "hardcore", "gamer geek" - for their perseverance in not only completing a game but picking it up to begin with, most times for it's off-beat nature. Talking about the merits of a title in relation to one's personal experiences is highly subjective but a great way to describe exactly why the game captured the sense of nostalgia that it did.
"Which brings me to an impasse on how to quite describe what has been, is, and will definitely remain my utmost devotion to SNK's Garou: Mark of the Wolves."
The debate rages on why some great games receive re-releases on PSN/XBL and others do not. Some members of the Goozex community have put together a list of games that are in dire need of PSN/XBL releases and GoozerNation has narrowed this list, which includes Shenmue, Sunset Riders, Resident Evil Outbreak, a handful of PSX/PS2 fighting games, and a long list of Megaman games
Thank you so much for using that screenshot. The SNES and Genesis conversions are terrible. I need my classic.
Honestly, no. Let's see if I remember:
The Genesis one was two player only, and cut two of the four characters. The audio was cut out, and replaced with speech bubbles. Entire levels were removed, and bosses were mixed onto other level's endings.
SNES had the better conversion, but cut out stuff: there were no western floozies in the doors you went in, all the Indian fighters were replaced with more generic cowboys, there was some, but not all, sound, and again, it was cut down to two players (though all four were selectable). Of the two, it's the better to have, but nothing replaces the arcade.
Shenmue HD!
Skies of Arcadia HD!
Panzer Dragoon collection!
Ace Combat 4 & 5 HD!
FFX HD!
Grandia 2 & 3 HD!
Jesus that's a Lotta HD's. :P
Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can leave permanent, emotional scars and traumatize you for life.
Women are masters of psychological warfare, especially female brawlers in fighting games. Enjoy (or cringe at) the following humiliating, belligerent, and insane post-match insults.
Oh man, Lizzy Caplan and I are super pissed. We're gonna sit back and make snotty comments about these girls, but then I'm gonna fall into their trap and become one of them NOOOOOO!
I'm sorry, Tina Fey! I never meant to become a Mean Girl.
I am Lindsay Lohan in this particular N4G comment.
Hey, if some super-hot chick beats the crap outta you, she gets to say anything she wants to your grateful ass.
My favourite female fighter of all time will always be Vice from the King Of Fighters series. I love how she she crawls on top of the loser's body and says "I guess there's no more bones to break...."
A real turn on for me.....
