Racing around giant indoor environments is what drew me to review the game, but you can't get to those until you unlock them by racing around boring forest and mountain tracks. And the game is so awful I wasn't going to get that far!
A Space Channel 5 sequel would be neat. Only problem is I'm awful at those games. I'd like to play the VR game, though. Because...ah, well, just because.
I'm a huge fan of Wallace and Gromit and loved the movie. It's a shame the studio where they made it burned down the day after the movie premiered.
2005 was still a good year for me, as nothing much had changed. My Game of the Year was Psychonauts. Unfortunately, the last half of the next year 2006 wasn't so great. But we'll get to that later.
Yes I have that Popeye game. Namco published it in the US. They published a lot of weird GBA games during its twilight years, like a Gumby game and a Berenstain Bears game.
I think FFX was even more turned based. I think FF12 was when it got more action-y. But I don't really know for sure because FF games are a mystery to me after FF9. I think FF12 had a cool female character with rabbit ears, though. I hope she had a carrot sword.
Same here! And I don't even like candy for the most part! So if you know I like Reese's Cups, you know they have to be good.
I never really liked this game, but it sure had some catchy music. But the one hit deaths and luck based boss battles ruined it for me. The sequels I played weren't much better, but I never did play Alex Kidd in Shinobi World, which many say is the best. I will give the Alex Kidd remake a try when it comes out next year, though. Everyone deserves a second chance.
Yeah I knew about that, but Reese's Pieces are still not that great.
I don't remember playing the E.T. game when it came out, but then, I didn't have an Atari 2600 until much later. And even if I did, I probably wouldn't have gotten this game. Mainly because I actually didn't like the E.T. movie that much. It was too long and drawn out and E.T. looked ugly like a rotisserie chicken and not huggable and cute like Gizmo or ALF. Plus I was mad that they hyped up Reese's Pieces for the movie, and when I FINALLY got to taste them, I was very disappointed. Peanut Butter M&Ms are what Reese's Pieces should've been.
Once I did play E.T., I had no idea what I was doing, but once you read the instructions it becomes a little more clear. But even then it wasn't much more fun. Atari 2600 games were mostly pick up and play kind of affairs, so the ones that you had to read the instructions to really know what to do were kind of rare and most were not worth playing.
There is one Atari 2600 game that is complicated enough that you have to read the instructions, but it's defintely worth it. The game is called Pressure Cooker and it's by Activision and it's my favorite 2600 game. I highly recommend you play it if you get a chance.
Honestly I don't remember the crash either. I just remember getting a lot of games for my Atari 5200 really cheap.
