Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

First retro (well kinda retro) purchase in ages.
Picked up Ace Combat 6 for the XBox 360.
Ace Combat 7 was my favourite game of last year and want to check out the rest of the series.
You need to buy a physical copy of Ace 6 now to play it as they took it off the digital store as they were offering it as a pre-order bonus for 7. Can't wait to take to the skies of Strangereal again!

Tale of the tape: Game arrives from New Zealand, has that weird upside-down problem with monitors, get a friend to send me a replacement rom to correct it, rom doesn't work, send entire game to Italy instead of playing relay with roms, turns out mame code is wrong, new rom figured out and corrects problem, game comes from Italy to Ireland, eejits mis-label it en-route from UK, goes missing, ends up back in Italy, sent again from Italy, watch tracking like a hawk this time....actually arrives! Actually works!
This game has clocked up serious miles to get here in working condition, crazy.
But it's a great little game, difficult but fun.

The fact that people love Athena perplexes me but I've brought that up before. And anyway I'm a Castlevania Adventure/Zelda CDi apologist so stones, glasshouse and all that!
Psycho Soldier on the other hand I love... but probably mostly due to the theme tune.

Oh man! If I had known it would have saved a lot of trouble. Still, at least the game went on holidays for the last couple months, which is more than most of us can do!
For those interested (there are dozens of us) the monitor correction is done on P1, NOT P4!
I don't know why exactly but the game reminds me of wonder boy 2, has that little bit of rpg thing that most arcade games understandably don't have. It's great!
Have to get my hands on psycho soldier to round it out, but it's proving elusive and/or mega expensive. Won't be paying the 800 quid or so that some people want.
As mentioned the song at the start of psycho soldier is notable for being one of the first (or actual first?) games to have an actual recorded song with lyrics.0 -
A full brown platform game in the arcade, not just a normal shoot/stab progress to the right - not very common in the arcades right?0 -

Yep, unusual enough all right, not too many to choose0 -

Reminds me a bit of Alex Kidd in Miracle World with the octopus and the first level.0 -

Feck it anyway!
I say I will be good and then somthing shiny distracts me and I have to have it!
Seems that the famous Sean Kelly (at least in Vectrex circles, he developed the first software based Multicart years agao) has released a completed Dark Tower game.
This game was 99% complete when it was abandoned with the failure of the Vectrex in the market.
The game then lay, unreleased for years before it was found and released to the masses in a quite playable state.
Kelly is after surprising the Veccy community by releasing a completed edition of the game, and I picked one up from his site this morning, works out around €31 shipped here for the cart.
