As for actual gameplay .. Well, it looks to be rather simplisitic. Continue shooting, dive & dodge incoming bullets, continue shooting. Just a classic get up and go bullet frenzy. I\'m diggin\' it so far.


Gun Grave - I was interested so I bought it myself.  Took it back in 48 hours to receive an 18 dollar store credit :mad: I took it back not because I didn\'t like it, but because I had finished it and I really see no replay value in it either.  No new weapons, no new enemies (unless you count bosses) and just too repetitive.  Don\'t get me wrong its a cool anime sort of game, but Sega could have done more with it.  It is way too short!!!!!  The Gun Dance is cool, but even that gets old.  This is renter all the way if only because it has no longevity.

Finally finished my Sega Soccer Slam review for the Xbox.  One of the best multiplayer games I have ever played.

I just went to the store and got some good deals on PSone games.

CAPCOMvsSNK PRO - I love it. I never really got into the vs. series until now. I already have every character... I\'m so special....

Actually i got a discount on the force feedback wheel for ps2 and playing it w/ gt3 is a riot. I hope in the future more games become compatible w/ it. Other than that ive been buying old favorites, fear effect 1&2 (awesome!), Ico (short but i always seem to come back for the emersiveness :D ), The bouncer (i got it for cheap and i love it a lot, i know i must be the only one but screw that i have a lotta fun w/ it!). Ooooh yeah. Wipeout Fusion. At first its kinda easy because the focus on speed has been removed for wepons. The game has a lot of modes and when u get further the fun really begins. Damn was it fast! The only complaints i have are about the slowdown that happens when theres too much going on at once and the weaker airbrakes. While the computer opponents can be cheap sometimes the game always gives u the opportunity to pay them back. Overall: Pretty damn good.

I finally got WipEout Fusion... I\'ll write later on how I like it.

[EDIT] I wonder if I should\'ve gotten Extreme G3 instead... bah, I haven\'t even played much yet, a couple measly hours, but

• Eyyeeerrraarrrlikeyaknow... it\'s WipEout?

-
• Frame rate drops too often
• Horrible shimmeries
• Stupid physics (when compared to the fabulous feel of 2097)
• Stupid new pitstops
• YOU LOSE ENERGY FROM RAILING! (it was just SO nice in wo2097 when you could just glide through the tracks at mad speeds, hugging the walls with sparks flying... ahh...)

So, in conclusion. Err... *goes back to wo2097* :p

WipeoutFusion bites the big one - or so I think.

Warcraft 3 - Good game, disappointing tho. Better than WC2, not as good as the brilliant  Warcraft

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun - Another good game, not as good as the brilliant Command & Conquer

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 - Very good game, better than Red Alert, still not as good as C&C tho.

Emporer: The Battle for Dune - Seeing as Dune 2 is my all time favorite RTS game (followed by Warcraft and Command & Conquer) this game had a tough name to live up to, but it\'s turned out to be fantastic.  Definately the best out of the aforementioned games.

Soldier of Fortune 2: Double Helix - :crap:

Baldur\'s Gate 2: Shadows of Amn - I just have too many games to play right now, and havent really gotten around to playing too much of it.  Seems fun tho :)

Got Blinx today...returning it tomorrow:)

Seriously, I think the ex-members of the Sonic Team were kicked out and they focused all their bad talent into one game.

One hit kills, crystals don\'t come back, blinx is so slow (might as well have been a turtle), 10 minute time limit, time control feature feels tacked on for some events.

I was kind of having fun with it until world 3...getting to the end and dying...then having to do the entire stage over again.  I don\'t need this.

There is a fine line between challenging and frustrating...learn it Artoon.

I have a huge rant just building up as I type this about MS.

Burnout 2 - Best arcade racing game I\'ve ever played.  Has the best racing game graphics I\'ve ever seen.  Smoothest framerate ever.  Nice handling, great crashes.  Mmmmm, soooo nice.  Only small flaws are that there are only 2 camera positions (p.o.v. and behind the car).  There needs to be a 3rd, behind the car but sitting up slightly, so you can see ahead of you easier.  And that sometimes only a slight touch will stop your car in your tracks.

Other than that, great game.

Onimusha 2.  I only just started playing it, seems like it\'ll be tremendous fun, as was the case with the original IMO :)

MLB SLUGFEST
« Reply #133 on: October 11, 2002, 01:08:04 PM »
I bought MLB slugfest a little while ago. I didnt really know what to expect when i bought it. I had an XBOX before trading it in for my ps2 and i had ALL-STAR BASEBALL for X and i didnt like it...

MLB SLUGFEST is good, gameplay is awsome and graphics are good, the same as in any other midway game...If i had to choose it over though I would have probbaly looked for a more realistic looking baseball game..
