Don't think I've heard that one, but I can imagine what it probably sounds like. I'll have to look it up Smile

Retro Game of the Week: Project: Horned Owl


Posted on 08/17/2013 at 04:03 PM | Filed Under Blogs

I think you're being a little too harsh. Remember when this came out. The PlayStation launched in America at the end of 1995, so Project: Horned Owl was in the console's first year. If they'd tried to use polygons for the graphics, it probably would have been a much uglier, muddy-looking game. And while it isn't an arcade port, it's definitely an arcade style game, so I don't see why it should get knocked for playing like an arcade game when it seems like that's what it is trying to do. And you won't get the whole experience if you don't play with the light gun. Unfortunately, this game came out before Namco standardized the genre with their Guncon, so finding the Sony gun is pretty hard (and it won't work on an HD tv anyway). Sure, it's not the best light gun game out there but I think it does its thing fairly well.

Well, I've featured Castlevania songs that have floated your boat before, so you'll just have to deal with this one lol. As for fall, I was out with the wife and kid doing some shopping today and I saw Halloween stuff out already, so maybe fall will get here earlier than usual. Personally, I can't wait for some cooler weather.

Hey, I didn't know Drac's castle had a porch! And I hope your guitar literally doubles as an axe 'cause you're definitely going to need it Tongue Out

I bought Shantae too! I've only played the first level so far but I like it Smile I've also picked up the two Zelda Oracle games.

LEGO Rant

Yeah, it was a cool novelty when they introduced the first Star Wars LEGOs but it's just gotten out of control since then and now they're stuck with this business model of branded themes. If they had made them limited time only sales that were just one arm of their business, they could have made them real collector's items. Now everyone just expects them and people like me just roll their eyes when they see yet another property getting the LEGO treatment.

I've always wished I had some hobby I could do with my hands while watching tv or something. It'd be a nice change of pace. But I'm not sure what I'd do Undecided

I went when it opened in D.C. Really neat and very well done. Go see it, folks, if you can!

I'm surprised they're not offering the first game instead.

The first game I played was Kirby's Dream Land for the Game Boy, which probably makes it the first game I beat too, since it's so easy. Otherwise probably Super C for the NES.
