That' s a great game, but I want more arcade games and less Genesis games! And hasn' t that Puzzle HD thing been up there for quite a while? I swear I saw it a long time ago.

Y' know, i thought that was just me. I saw it last week, or maybe the week before but didn' t take much notice because it' s obviously shit. But apparently it' s up gone up today.

I might get Street of Rage 2 though as i don' t think my Mega Drive works anymore, although maybe it' s the fuse in the plug...

It was just a theme and come pics before. Now the actual game is up. Along with Streets of Rage and Bomberman Live add-on.

SOR2?! Jesus yes! Is the music faithful or has it been butchered? Best MD music ever - not the genre of music, but the production squeezes everything out of the Yamaha box!

*edit* Downloaded it even though I' ve got a couple good ones of it allready, just for the online and to have it on my profile.

The music is close, but a little tinny compared to the original. The sound effects have gone wrong somewhere, with almost comedy squeaks if you hammer punch a little more than you shuold - this also happens with certain other effects. Still, its fantastic to have it crisp on a big display and looks as good now as it did when I was 12! The emulation of the 68000 core is bang on on this, compared to golden axe which didnt seem quite right somehow - don' t know if they have tweaked the emu since then.

Ah Yuzo - they even credited you on the start screen again too.


As for bomberman they should just port saturn bomberman - blatently the best ever version and be done. :Leave the franchise there hudson, you are worse than Sega for whoring yourselves out!! Every iso 3d version is/has been crap. The saturn one was probably the better of the pal available releases. 10 Player simultaneous in widescreen, loads of arenas, great artwork, crisp controls, 3 modes of play. No-one can pick it up and play for match and not want another after!

The atrocity on live is horrific in comparison!!

just port it allready!

Golden Axe wasn' t the Genesis version. It was the arcade.

Nitro, so you don' t like Puzzle fighter?? I plan to get it on ps3 when it comes if the price is fair. Loved it on the Saturn.

Aah that makes perfect sense Joe - only played the demo for a few minutes before some meeting so didn' t have that much time to have a proper look.

Thats where the nick comes from - radiant silvergun and Ikagura - and I love em both. But still slightly prefer RS and more recently Border Down as much for the art direction as anything. Some of the nuances in the game play are brilling. Aaah Treasure...
