Yeah there was a Taz-Mania Saturday morning cartoon in the early 90's. It starred Taz and his family and friends, most of which were based on other Austrailian animals. It wasn't that great, but it did pave the way for better WB cartoons like Animaniacs and Batman: The Animated Series. I don't know how much the Genesis game was based on the cartoon, but the SNES game had characters from it.
Wow! How many Cool Boarders and Syphon Filter games did they have?
Yeah when I was in college, I was the worst I've ever been financially. When I got out of college, I even went a tiny bit overboard buying games I missed. But once I got a job, I've been taking steps since then to help keep me from being that low on money again.
Since I didn't have a Genesis as a kid, I never had this game, but I know I played a little bit of it at a demo kiosk in a store back then.
The SNES had a Taz-Mania game, too, but it was a totally different game. You ran on a road in pseudo 3-D or something. I never played it because it was too expensive to buy and I don't remember ever seeing it for rent at the rental places.
Going around in circles seemed to be all you did in the first game. Were most of the DD games on PlayStation?
I do have a comic book where Spider-Man fights Powdered Toast Man. Guess who won? :)
I don't really get into comic books much, so I never played too many of the Marvel games. I enjoyed Captain America and the Avengers arcade game because it was so cheesy and you could pick up vending machines, and I played a lot of the Marvel vs. Capcom games. But mostly for the Capcom stuff. Most of what I know about Marvel either comes from the movies, LEGO games, or Marvel vs. Capcom titles. Like, those games taught me about characters like "Purple Hair Lady Who Shoots Out Pink Things." Or "Mrs. Hulk."
It may not be so bad to not have as many Marvel games now, as Disney would have their fingers in the pie all the time.
I didn't realize there was a whole series of Destruction Derby games!
Oh I know I'd probably like Snowboard Kids. I just didn't buy it when it came out because I was a poor college student and couldn't afford to get all the games out there I wanted.
The DMA game on the N64 that you are talking about is called Space Station: Silicon Valley. I REALLY wanted to play that game, too, but again, I was a poor college student and couldn't afford it. Plus it was really hard to find if I remember correctly. Can't play all the games out there, unfortunately.
I almost feel like the SNES was Square's own console, but that's because I played a lot of Square's RPGs on the SNES.
FF9 is great. It's what FF7 and FF8 should've been. Yeah, I went there.
Brave Fencer Musashi is awesome. A Square gem. Shame no one remembers it.
