I want to play this game again. It was one of the funnest games.
I played it all of the time on 3d0.

Are there any other games like this?


2 years ago i tried playing it again because i still have that system but my disc is scratched up and got stuck in the begining of the game. i wish they'd remake it or do a part 2

This game looks epic... the closest I could think of is "Zombies ate my Neighbors" Def not like what this unique game but is Jes as fun lol.. Oh have you tried an emulator n Rom Concept?

[Lord Xenu]

i just might have to check that game out.

[brash]

this game would own on nintendo ds.. since the pen would allow for placing stuff more easily

[Lord Xenu]

Oh yea, it would help the game move a bit more quickly as well. I for one am a huge fan of these types of games.

[liquid_nova]

OOOO O_O m looking into getting a copy via emulator te give it a go lol it looks really fun! I have te try this... I have a 3DO but sadly couldn't believe i didn't hear of this game! -_-

[brash]

i heard the 3d0 emu isn't very good. if you have a 3d0 just download the cd copy and burn it. 3d0 has no protection againsts burned cds

there is also a saturn and dos version but the dos version has sucky midi music.

[liquid_nova]

Ah thats good te know ^^ I still gotta get a new back up battery for my saturn lol Does the 3DO still suffer that as well?

[Lord Xenu]

I believe it does. Neo Geo CD supposedly had that problem too.

[brash]

i have the original 3d0 that i got the day it came out and i still am saving games on it.. i've never changed any battery. lol i'm surprized at how long those can last

[Lord Xenu]

It was weird. Supposedly, they used a few different types of batteries that were different sizes. Some worked well, some failed quickly.

Speaking of 3DO, anyone remember that horrible Demolition Man game?

[liquid_nova]

Oh wow O_O thats awesome!! lol I have it too still in the box and all, was jes wondering cause Like Niko said the neo geo had that problem n the same with the saturn Saturn wasn't hard te replace but I havent tried the neo geo.. WHich am sure shouldn't be too hard te replace either lol

[liquid_nova]

Lol Sewer Sharks!!! haha Yeah I was the poor sap the owner of the game gave to me for free and I now know why! lol With demolishion man lol

[Lord Xenu]

It was just another horrible movie tie in game.

[liquid_nova]

Its a rare find te find a good game/movie tie in.. though i am starting to see it gradually getting better...

[brash]

i have demolition man. hated it. my brother liked it though

Another game that sucked -and i dont know why i use to play it- was Way of the Warrior.. i kept playing it because of how strange and stupid it seemed. also to discover it's secrets, like it's odd ways of killing

The best Fatalities i've ever seen at the time were actually on segaCD's Eternal Champions.

The 3d0 did have a surprizing amount of decent games for the time.. but i wish i had just skipped that system and invested more into sega saturn.. because i was juggling n64/ps/saturn/3d0 and it's just too annoying having so many things hooked up
i missed out on all of those good marvel/street fighter saturn games.. which makes no sense considering it's my favorite types of games to play & love the marvel fighters.

[liquid_nova]

Yeah the 3DO sadly jes like neo geo where Put aside.. The price was as a whole steep... I loved Firestorm on my 3DO lol Helicopter fury!!! haha err I think it was called Firestorm... fml... I need to go fish it out eventually lol

[Lord Xenu]

With the Neo Geo, you knew what you were getting. At least I did. You were not getting arcade ports, but the ACTUAL arcade games. It was awesome. 3DO was a shot in the dark to push new tech. It was just too expensive.

[liquid_nova]

Yeah I miss Neo Geo wish they made a return to the market lol so many epic games and 3DO yeah it was lol

[jthereliable]

Just tossing this out there but I think there's a PC version that's deemed abandonware, so you can get it for free. (Check out abandonia.)

[brash]

i was stupid and traded in my neo geo to help buy the 3d0. .. in a way it was worth it in that neo geo didn't have hardly anything beyond fighting games. Which is probably my favorite genre.. but i really did have a blast playing Alone in the Dark, The Horde, Star Control, Crash n' Burn, Total Eclipse, Killing Time, Gardian Wars... and Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo was actually just as good as any neo geo game.
But if i had just waited i could have gotten most of those on ps1 or saturn.
The horde was probably the number 1 3d0 game for me. Even today i often think about that game.

With neo geo i loved how the games were the actual arcade games. That use to blow me away.
As soon as i got a neo i had a dual custom arcade-stick built by "Massytems" for it so that it looked just like a neo geo machine with the colored buttons and a happ bat stick.
That made all the difference.
Then when i sold the neo and got a 3d0 i pad-hacked a 3d0 controller to work with the stick so i could play SSF2Turbo

[brash]

my favorite neo games though were Samurai Shodown series, King of Fighters 98, Magician Lord, Nam 1975, Art of Fighting series, and Metal Slug series.

I dont know which i liked the most. They were all so good. I had world heroes and some others but i didn't care much for that series.

[Lord Xenu]

I ended up buying an empty official Neo Geo arcade cab complete with game cards to put in the slots in the top. I have my Neo Geo in it and rewired sticks. It is amazing. It even accepts coins (not that you need them lol).

I liked World Heros a lot.

[liquid_nova]

I love my abandon ware lol I miss the ol Abandon Garden, last I member they shut it down :(

[liquid_nova]

King of Fighters!! lol I loved the dodge ball game they had and the neo geo baseball series was a blast, I wish they would revive it again and bring an arcade concept to onlive.. would be killer! Get a usb Arcade pad to run on onlive and off yeah go all set lol

[Lord Xenu]

Yea, you pretty much have to search offshore sites.

[liquid_nova]

Sad but true my friend -_- So many good games burried and not seen but by the few folks that have an aprication for the old gaming world lol Know yer roots! lol!!
