Sonic & Mario at the Winter Olympics - the series nobody ever asked for. Boggles my mind how these things get made!

The games sell like hot cakes though

Watching the Total Recall remake.

Why is the three boobed hooker in this one when there's no evidence of mutations in the movie?

o1s1n

Because Total Recall isn't Total Recall without at least 1 chick with three boobs :pac:

I haven't seen the remake. To be honest I refuse to watch it. Absolutely zero reason for it to be made.

I know. I'm just watching this out of curiosity.

Yeah, almost did myself when it was in the cinema! Had a feeling I'd just end up in a rage though so decided against it in the end.

That's known as morbid curiosity.

I just had a jam on the God of War: Acension demo. It didn't blow my mind though.

Why are they...why are they

outside the transport pod that is going at thousands of miles per hour, would crush them instantly and burn them to a crisp since they're many miles below the earth's crust?

Hollywood shouldn't operate under that kind of logic.

A wise choice, it was crap, total boredom. Bit of eye candy with Jessica and Kate but not even worth a rental.

YAY! The Fugitive is on next.

This iphone is annoying the **** of me. At least when you set up video game consoles, its reasonably straight forward :mad:

Finish my first game jam. 12 hours to make a game and proud to day I made something playable by the end. It was me on coding and my friend on art. It won't be winning awards but it's a start. There's pics in the game dev forum and I'll put a post up with a link to the game tomorrow if anyone wants to try it.

Can't wait!
I'm always looking forward to the next Super Hexagon!

Well, once it's not a Farmville clone I'll be happy!

Only playing through final fantasy 6 for the first time

This music probably tops anything I've heard on the snes so far, truly amazing for a 16-bit console

Waiting for the opera scene , heard good things about it

Retr0gamer

Hope you are playing the SNES version and not the piss poor PS1 version.

I've never played it myself (I really should I know), only watched my friend play a good bit of it, same with 7. Playing FFIV myself for the ..4th? time, only came close to finishing once and lost my save data.

I'm barely anywhere through it, but even in the first few hours you can see whats so special about it.

I played through that years ago on my DS via a Snes emulator. Think I'll pick up a cart and give it a shot again, cracking game. Doesn't look to be too expensive either.

Around 35 dollars I think for a loose cart, not too bad

Played a bit of mystical ninja last night and I'm liking the funky little soundtrack. Top,down to side scroller, I likey.
Put on secret of mana then, just to see it in 60hz and lost a couple of hours to it. I think it might be my favourite game, love the music, love the visuals and love the game overall.

Haven't had a chance to get back to Earthbound in a week or so and I'm finding the desire to do so gone. I only got as far as the end of the sick monster guy.

If anyone wants to see if my game jam project is better than Super Hexagon they can try it here:

Ugh, I'm in ribbons. Had a surprise party thrown for me which was awesome and a fantastic 90s cheesy pop playlist!

And yet, the night passed without a single drunken post, not a mention of "Hoes", or "Beetches" or "Va-jay jay".
I think we've turned a corner people!

So, quick question.
Is it worth getting Sōkyūgurentai/Terra Diver for the Saturn or PS?
Given it's highly unlikely that I'll get it for the STV, seeing as I don't have an STV or the Sōkyūgurentai cart for it.
Is the Saturn version a respectable port?
Is the PS version tolerable?

o1s1n

Saturn version is perfect, definitely worth a pick up

PSX version not so much, but it's not SO bad...
