Ah mate, Fantasy Zone!
The classic of all classics!
All you need from the Master System era is that and Alex Kidd in Miracle World and the jobs a good un.
Impossible Mission on the 64 was one of the hardest games I ever played, never managed to complete it. You get an hour to do it but everytime you die time gets taken off you. Really good early platformer though, remember being wowed by the speech at the start of he game "Another Visitor, Stay awhile, Stay forever!"
California Games was pretty cool. Used to play it head to head with my 2 brothers passing the joystick between us. Once you get used to the events it is pretty easy though. Personally thought that the best event was the surfing, clocking up points doing 360's etc from the top of the wave. If you wiped out you got the jaws theme and that famous fin!
i wasted 500 points on california games, its pap
So the fond memories are literally that with California Games. Mind you never really wanted to fire it up for old times sakes on the 64 emulator I have. What I remember of it was it was great to play with my brothers for a few hours, also loved the Summer and Winter Games series from US Gold.
They need to get up the Last Ninja series (System 3 games in general and also the Thalamus Games) and some of the old arcade conversions like Black Tiger and the origional Bionic Commando, now those would be well worth the points!
They also need to do AvP from the Jaguar and Return Fire from the 3DO, imo.
Have none of you got mame? whats the point in spending points on classic games when you can have over 5000 mame games on you pc.
Much preffered Winter Games myself :-)
I play lots of classic games on my 360, Sonic, Sonic II, Golden Axe, etc.
I could use emus, but apart from the dodgy legal status, you don't get achievements, a big HD screen to play on and stuff.
There was a copy of Fantasy Zone (Mega Drive version) on the PS2's Sega Classics discOriginally Posted by Stewart
Classic game, although I'm sure I've seen it about cheaper than Play sell it for. And Golden Axe has "updated" graphics on that disc which don't suit it.
There's the Mega Drive version of Alex Kidd & the enchanted Castle on this one where the games haven't been tampered with at all.
