  1. Snatcher totally counts I think. So do the others. I am replaying Uninvited and somehow have two dolls (one is a voodoo doll).
  2. I got a complete sealed copy of Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective for PC recently. Best 5 cents I ever spent at a yardsale.
  3. Issue 3 keeps getting better and better, the more I hear about it. Very cool.
  4. Thank you very much. I will try it out (TV is currently tied up watching Warehouse 13 on sci-fi).
  5. Looks pretty cool. I have a slower connection so it kept slowing down on me, that or my computer is just that crappy. Cool nonetheless.
  6. That is the three buildings, thanks Sky, the chapel and the doll are my problem. I didn't know to use it in some way there. I will try it out here in a bit. I have already watered the plant in the green house and it started growing so I think I have that covered so far.
  7. I like the ICOM Simulations adventure titles too. They were different and all had unique stories for the most part, even though they used the same engine. Got time to help me out with a problem in Uninvited? I am stuck at the 3 buildings area outside and have explored everywhere I can inside. Got any tips?
  8. Full Motion Video games have disappeared from consoles but you can still get plenty of them on PC (there are a couple of online only ones). I miss the beat em up and shooters like Gradius as well.
  9. Not a lot of info here but Steve Harris has talked with 1up.com about EGM and his past with the magazine and a slight bit about the future of it. You can find out some interesting tidbits about Mr. Harris' career in the article. As usual, 1up messed up a lot and didn't get some things correct but it is better than nothing I guess. http://www.1up.com/do/feature?cId=3175300 I will make sure to keep everyone up to date on any more developments.
  10. That was yesterday. I missed it by about 2 1/4 hours, oh well, anyone got any stories they want to share about Mother?
  11. I had one of the systems, no CD attachment though. I loved playing the Neutopia games, Shockman and Splatterhouse on it. Those were about the only games I had for it really, I had some others that don't really need mentioning, like China Warrior etc. Great system, too bad NEC went with the PC-FX as their follow up rather than a regular console (PC-FX was pretty much a FMV system only and was apparently a harder chore to program a regular game for than Saturn).
  12. I believe there was an A-Team game for the Atari 2600 generation (I say generation since I can't remember exactly what system). It would be cool if they made a newer one similar to GTA, except you go around and meet up with people needing help (or see someone getting beat up or whatever and help them) to get missions and then have to salvage parts and such from the game world. Thundercats could have been cool if they would have made one, I always invisioned some kind of game like Blades of Vengeance on Genesis or Strider for it. He-Man would have been cool too (the old Atari 2600 generation one is pretty bad if I remember correctly and the GBA version that came out awhile back isn't much better), again, something like Strider or Blades of Vengeance and let it rip. Where is my Voltron game? Or Go-Bots? Or where is the digitized fighter version of Double Dragon with Alyssa Milano in a similar fashion to how they did Street Fighter The Movie?
  13. Now they are planning on releasing Marvel sackboys: Pic and quote thanks to Kotaku.

  15. I have to go with 3DO, it got my long since retired father into video games (he had no problem with me playing them but I think they were just not interesting to him), loved playing Gex for the first time (coming from Super Mario World to Gex was just mindblowing, graphicswise). I remember the first time I played Killing Time (1st time to ever play an FPS and loved it), Need for Speed, Road Rash, Star Fighter (that really blew my mind since I was used to playing EA flight simulators on Genesis and this was just so cool). There are plenty more that I liked like Brain Dead 13, the first game to get me to laugh and then there was Psychic Detective, the first FMV game I played (I later went back and started collecting them on Sega CD). Jaguar was one I always wanted to try out but never got around to. AVP was at the top of my list with Iron Soldier close behind. CD-i was the anomoly for me, my father wanted me to buy it since it was advertised with "edutainment" options but I was able to hold off on that one (the local Best Buy had around 130 or so titles for it but over 2/3's of them required the DVI cartridge which was never in stock or included with the system so games like Dragon's Lair and Space Ace were out). Amiga CD32 was interesting but it was not an option to me to have to order over the phone every game I was ever going to get for it. That and the games just didn't strike me as anything special. As far as never released in America consoles, I was always a fan of the FM Towns Marty for some reason and the Super Grafx system (probably a fan of both for arcade perfect ports and no one else around me would possibly ever have one).
  16. Your welcome, I have been working closely with OtTG and the stuff not shown in the video or in pics so far is simply awesome. Well worth the price they plan on asking for it in the US.
  17. Keep an eye on J2games.com in their magazine section, they have some rarer VG&CE issues (they have #1 right now). Also, you could message them about that Jan/Feb 89 issue, they are great about getting in contact with people about things like this.
  18. I don't think they all were the same way as Plumbers Don't Wear Ties as I could have sworn there were a couple of 3DO titles that were only available at Adult stores (probably unlicensed games).
  19. Get some rest, take care of yourself first, we all will be here when you get back up to feeling able to do more. Enjoy your time that you can and do stuff you want to do. Take care, man. Really, we all missed you and are glad your OK.
  20. We covered it on the front page here: http://www.retromags.com/forums/Boy-Blob-W...tml&hl=blob
  21. Not exactly what is being asked for but Kotaku has some coverage on a 3D remake of the first Zelda- http://kotaku.com/5320756/if-zelda-was-fir...erson-and-in-3d
  22. Are you talking stuff like classic collections? Hmm, you could really throw a coin in the air and pic a side as far as PS3 and Xbox 360 really. Neither is getting games on disc that the other isn't as far as 2D goes. Now, if you add in either the PSN or Live (to which you can access more recent releases like the HD Street Fighter-why isn't that on a disc yet?). PSN does have a game called Crash Commando while Live has Shadow Complex (more like a Metroid type game) both of which are 2D (well, they are 3D but played from a 2D perspective like Clockwork Knight on Saturn and such).
  23. On 3DO there were about 10 or so of those softcore porn videogames. I believe Night Trap has more gameplay than those games did.
  24. You can check out a game called NyxQuest, while not a sequel or connected to Kid Icarus in anything but game setting it is often referred to as a Kid Icarus for Wiiware. http://unnamedgamingvideos.fliggo.com/video/13NiPMgM (video) http://www.overthetopgames.com/ (developer's site) I have an interview with additional exclusive pics and game information for their US launch coming on UnNamedGaming.com for those interested.
