Cheek mumble this to All? *** THC> Sega Confirms Work on Mystery Machine, Layoffs Hey Troy, I dunno if you've already posted an article about what I'm about to say, but here goes...due to the death of the Genesis, the Sega Channel is going off the air forever in June. That news doesn't surprise me, since it would be virtually impossible to reprogram the channel to make it compatible with either the Saturn or the upcoming Dural. --- Telegard v3.02 * Origin: The Steiner Line BBS 910-626-7985 (1:3648/6) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 170 VIDEO GAMES Ref: F1Q00027 Date: 01/20/98 From: CHRIS VALDEZ Time: 04:09pm \/To: KANO VUONG (Read 0 times) Subj: Re: N64 games -> Hehehe well FF Tactics and Saya frontier are coming out soon.

But even if I did play one of those games, they would still be more coherent. The problem with RE is that it sets its story in the real world, and uses a real-world problem (viruses) to explain the existence of the "zombies." It's totally illogical - the closest viruses come to creating these creatures are hemorraging. SI> game?

For a real story, play a Gabriel Knight game. --- Maximus 3.01 * Origin: BitByters BBS, Rockland ON, Can.

I don't see hoe either of these flat games compare. Goldeneye is the first true 3d shoot em up in this genre. every other game just uses 2d characters dumped in a 3d map. Unless you can play(damn the one you fly around in a 3d maze with that spaceship thing.) mult player then godeneye beats em all any day. --- Maximus/2 3.01 * Origin: Juxtaposition BBS.

First of all Mature games aren't the best and Blood and Gore don't make the game. Sure I really enjoy those kinda games but unlike some people I enjoy some variety. Not killing everything in sight. I also like Sports games and Adventure games. Not just Go-on-a-killing-spree games. And that link thing sucks and is way too much of a hassle. You gotta have like more than 1 TV.
