No wonder I've never heard of it.  I don't do much with books or Netflix.  Mark Hamill does a lot of cartoon voices.

Good luck trying to figure it out!  The game collection comes with no instructions, and these games came out when printed instruction manuals were included with games, so they usually didn't feel like they needed tutorials in the game.  They didn't even bother including scanned pics of the manual in the collection.  I tried watching videos and guides online and still couldn't figure it out.  That was my main problem with the collection.

I'm not a big fan of DBZ, but I do know a lot about it because the original Dragon Ball is one of my top favorite anime cartoons of all time.  I don't know much about GT or the new Super one whatever it's called.

Yeah if this is based on some kind of franchise, I've never heard of it.

You know what's weird is I don't think any of the current gen systems have a new Ridge Racer game.  There's none on the PS4 or PS5, as well as the Switch and Xbox One or X/S.  Namco needs to get on that.  Usually each new console has one.  I don't think I've played a new Ridge Racer game since Ridge Racer 7 on PS3!

Yeah the only two Mario games I've completed 100 percent are Super Mario 64 and Super Mario World.

In G-Darius, you get a set number of these balls you can shoot out to capture enemies.  Jeff and I called them Pokeballs!  

I think you should continue to do these Taito games after BaD, because you never know what the future will bring!

There's no such thing as a bad Kirby game.  I really can't wait for Kirby and the Forgotten Land!

Only 'realistic' racing game I like is Ridge Racer.

Aw man, we're at the end of BaD and you haven't even gotten to the really good shooters yet.  If you're playing the PS2 version of Taito Legends 2, G-Darius is on there.  It came out after Darius Gaiden, so it's a bit more polygonal, but I think it looks and plays better.  Plus, you know how in Darius Gaiden you could capture the mid-bosses?  Well in G-Darius you can capture ALL the enemies and use them in several different ways.  You can use their shots, use them as a shield, a super laser, or as a screen clearing bomb!  It was way more versatile.  I have the PSOne version of G-Darius and played it all the time with my brother Jeff.

Another awesome Taito Legends 2 shooter is Metal Black.  It was made by the same team who did the Darius games and was almost going to be a Darius game itself.  It even has seafood bosses, too!  But the vibe the game has is really neat.  The Darius series is one of my favorite shooters ever.  Nothing remarkable about them gameplay-wise, just something about those robotic fish.
