B.C. Racers for 3DO supposedly complete is on its way from Amazon. Now I will be able to see if the 32X game sucks because of the 3DO source material or because of bad porting, then I might just make a video comparison of the three versions excluding the PC. |

Rage (X360)- He he...it's pretty. I can't believe this game's running at 60 FPS. How in the hell did id do this? Because the game texture-wise is pretty powerful. Is this how you PC people play your games? :D |

Dang, that's out already? How does it play? Is it just another FPS but with huge levels and better textures? |

I think I'll review the game in more detail later. But for the most part it is, like you said, another FPS but with huge levels and better textures. It's a very good one and the gameplay works well, but I don't see it winning any awards other than best tech. It's definitely got my interest. I've played it for quite a while today. It's along the lines of games like Crysis 2 and Resistance 3. I'm glad I own this, but I'm not sure it's worth the $60 price tag like Deus Ex Human Revolution was last month. |

I'm saving my first non-retro $60 purchase in years for Arkham City, I'm glad Rage isn't going to tempt me until it drops in price. I'll be interested to see your full review. Also, has anybody posted any comparison videos from the PS3 and 360 versions? We've had a lively debate about which would be better since the beginning of time. |

Okay, I'm about to start the review. After twelve entertaining hours, Rage has been beaten...and my God, it had one of the worst endings ever. I think I would've been more satisfied if I got the ending from Ghostbusters on the NES. |

Nothing can ruin a game for me like a bad ending. Combine that with the severe boredom I feel with FPS gameplay and Rage is going into Halo and Gears territory for me. I'll buy it if the price ever drops below $10. Racing Damashii (Complete), Power Drift (Complete) and World Heroes 2 ACD (Complete) for PC-Engine DUO (Gift). Loaded for Saturn (Complete) $12.95. |

Got a two page review on Rage coming up in a second. Two pages. Shit. I wish I was that efficient with schoolwork. -o- Edit: And done! The full thing can be found here: http://ds7gamestalk.blogspot.com/2011/10/rage-single-player-review.html Rage receives a 7 out of 10. Rage is kind of a heartbreaker. When you’re in the FPS sections of the game, it’s brilliant. It just unfortunate that there’s a bunch of extra crap in the game that drags the experience down. Honestly, if the game was 100% fps action, I would have loved this game. I would totally put it in my X360 every time I wanted to kick some ass. But as it is, Rage is an excellent rental. I think you should definitely go through it at least once. But I wouldn’t blame you if you never felt the need to go through it again. I think id should have gone with the route of, “Keep it simple, stupid.” Recommendation: Rental or bargain buy. Edited by DarcSeven, Oct 8 2011, 05:05 PM.

Bloody Wolf (Complete, No cardboard box) $25.95. Galaxy Force (Complete) for Master System $10.94. Cadillacs and Dinosaurs (Complete) for Sega CD $16.16. -edit- I already posted all of these, but they all finally arrived last week and I wanted to post the prices so I'll remember later. |

Goozex came through for me again and I landed Transformers ROTF (Complete) 360 and Starlancer (Complete) for Dreamcast. Transformers is amusing, better than the first bayformers game by a long shot and possible better than War for Cyberton. Starlancer I traded back when it was new because I was playing Wing Commander Prophecy on PC and was sick of the formula. Ten years and the absolute starvation of space sims today has brought me back to one of my first loves. |

Just rented this today: Battlefield 3 (PS3). Good lord, was this game average. Good thing Redbox is only $2 a day, because that's all this was worth. I bought Cyberbots through PSone classics. I'm glad I finally got the chance to play this. I was wondering where Jin from MVC came from. Don't have much to say about the game. It's a good classic fighting game from Capcom. That pretty much says it all. |

I've never heard of Cyberbots, what kind of game is it? It looks like I've got Chrome Hounds coming in for 360 from Goozex, I didn't even remember requesting that one, it must have been only 100 points that's why. |

Holy crap, is that available on the US PS1? I'd have to pick that up, actually, I need to pick up whatever that Dreamcast 2D mech fighter was already. Still, that really is Full Metal Madness, awesome! |

Sadly, it's not available on US PS1. It was only released in Japan for the Playstation and (I think) for the Saturn. No, I got this through the PS3's PSN store. They have a few Japanese imports to download in there for about $6 or $7 each. |

Scott, you do realize that this is that Capcom fighter that showed up in the arcades? Came out on the Saturn in Japan, uses the 4meg cart, you can play it in MAME, etc, etc... Bel(using PK's account again...due to laziness) |

Hmm, I might need to pick that one up if it uses the RAM cart on the Saturn then. Thanks for the info! |

It's been a while since I've done this, but I left a max bid on a Super Street Fighter II Turbo and a Capcom Soldier pad for 3DO last night when I went for bed. I won, so, I get a nifty looking six button controller and supposedly the best version of Super Street Fighter II outside of a compilation. We will see. |

Believe it or not, that controller is actually not too bad. I've got the Genesis version of it, and I actually kind of like it. As for SSF2T on 3DO, I've played it a few times and it's actually a solid port. What I didn't realize, though, is that the PC version and 3DO version have different soundtracks. I knew they both had completely redone soundtracks, but I thought it was the same one across both versions(it isn't). If it's redbook, could you make a rip of it for me(192kbps)? Bel |

If and when it arrives I will definitely make a rip of the soundtrack if I can. Lately everybody has been requesting 356kbps though, so I will do that unless you would prefer 192. I can't hear the difference on any of my equipment, but I am told there is one. I have also found that the file size changes really doesn't make that much of a difference in today's memory rich environments. |
