I finally got a chance to play some Lords of Thunder this weekend. What an awesome game. Rocking soundtrack. I have a handful of SCD games I've been meaning to play that I haven't yet. Android Assault is near the top of that list. Glad you got to play it! That soundtrack is so freakin awesome. I've had a much better time playing it since I upped the difficulty level. Really makes you do some trial and error to find out which armor works the best in each stage. Android Assault is a really fun game too but I'm not crazy about it. I can't really give you a good reason why either. It's just missing something I can't quite put my finger on. Have you played Snatcher yet? Woops, never saw this one! I haven't played Snatcher yet, no. My better half actually did a video review of Snatcher (and many other games) since I'm too lazy to play many of them. As for myself, I've been playing a lot of Saturn recently. I got a stack of new games and I finally got a copy of Tenchi Wo Karau 2 aka Warriors of Fate. Really digging the combat and the giant colorful sprites. Capcom really did it right back then. |

I'll be checking out her other stuff too, definitely subscribed. I hate how most youtubers go for that awkward/forced comedy these days. It was nice to see a reviewer that's actually focused on the review itself. As for what I've been playing. I popped in Knuckles Chaotix for something 2 player to play with my youngest and he absolutely loves it. The rubber band mechanics make for some hilarious moments too, he really gets a kick out of it when things get crazy. |

I'm gonna check out your lady's review just haven't had a chance last couple of days. Snatcher is one of the most memorable games I've played in the last couple years so I'm def interested in hearing someone else's perspective on it.

Haven't watched many Snatcher reviews (guess just GameSack's) but I couldn't imagine doing one any better than that. Like Fist said; very accurate and honest. I also enjoyed hearing someone else gripe about the more annoying parts of the game like having to inspect things repeatedly. Too bad she didn't have a Justifier, it really makes those shooting parts easier (well, I imagine it would anyway) and really adds to the overall experience. I found myself holstering the gun in my belt and keeping one hand it just in case questioning a suspect goes south, lol.
Downloaded Jumping Flash 2. If your like me and can look past dated graphics I highly suggest playing these games. Simple but fun.

Never played snatcher, burnt it to a disc long ago but kind of afraid it wont live up to the hype so keep putting it off. |

I played through Metal Head for 32X last night. Great fast paced mech game and pretty quick to beat.
Other than that I've been enjoying 3D Sonic 2 on the go. I need to save up and get all of M2's 3DS titles. They're such top notch re-releases.

I was looking through my loose carts for something to play and happened upon Reggie Jackson's Baseball for Master System that I forgot I even had. I ended up saving it from a pile of retro stuff from a comic/card shop and hadn't even tried it yet. It's pretty sweet, plays a lot like MLBPA by EA for the SNES and Genesis. There's a lot going on with it for an 8 bit baseball game. It has some pretty impressive voice samples too.

I can't express enough how much in love I am with Xenogears. I hope I'm not speaking too soon, but it's really holding my attention, which, as I've mentioned before, RPG's struggle to do that with me lately. But I love it. <3

Played a little bit of Zaxxon Mother Base 2000 for the 32X. I'm really not sure what to make of it just yet but it does have some "interesting" music and cool features like taking over enemy ships to obtain their powers (similar to Gaiares) and a jump button! Ha ha, I guess this isn't strange for a Zaxxon game but still strange to me for a shooter to have a jump button.
I'll work on getting some pics up in the Finds thread to show you guys the 32X games I picked up, only got a few more carts and I'm done but they are of course the more expensive ones.

Perhaps worth spending the cash on the Everdrive rather than blowing 300-400 on that mediocre Spiderman game thats so rare. I'd get it if you were after a complete set though. |

Complete set of 32X games shouldn't be too difficult. Can't be more than 50 games.
