    well in the dreamcasrt one anyway :afro:

  2. Game: Alien vs. predator

    System: Arcade

    Emulators: MAME

    This game I feel is the pinnacle of the scrolling 2D fighter. This came out a year after the punisher one which I also recommend you check out. This game feels as if Capcom have looked at final fight and just improved and polished every part of the game. The game’s plot involves aliens taking over earth and two humans are caught in the think of it when suddenly two predators appear and tell them to come with them if they want to live.

    You can select one of four different characters 2 humans and 2 predators. This is one of the games best features as playing the game through with each character is totally different. The army man has a giant robotic arm instead of a normal hand so as you would expect this makes him slow but powerful. The woman is a ninja type character who is weak but fast with the most special moves. The predators have the more useful weapon with greater reach and are generally more rounded characters.

    Well I suppose your wondering what makes this game different from the many other side scrollers? Well for starters characters have all the usual side scrolling moves , (e.g. jump and attack cause a health drain special, being able to grab baddies) however they all have weapon with a power bar at the bottom left of the screen. This can be shot whenever you want but shoot to many times and it will over heat or need to be reloaded, this really adds a new strategy to the game of when to conserve power and when to let rip. Also each character has their own special moves involving simple up, down then attack combinations. For example the woman can double press forward and slash baddies with a samurai sword while the predator hunter can rising uppercut or slide kick the bad guys.

    This game also has an incredible amount of items dropped including marine guns from the aliens films and predator discs. There are many aliens to fight and this gives the feeling of an alien swam of that will just keep coming at you.

     

    This game also has three elevator fights in it, the more elevators the better in this kind of game J.

     

    The few downsides to this game are that the environments can get a bit samey but your normally too busy to notice this. Also the usual unfair arcade boss appears round half way though (play it and see if you can work out which one I mean).

     

    Overall tough this game is great fun for two players.

  3. well today its yoshi vs ryo from shenmue

     

    mmm which is better a green long tongued dinosaur or a nearly characterless human ?

     

    how do u pick what is best?

    best character to go for a drink with?

    best game?

     

    are there any good characters in bad games? apart from things such as kirbys air ride has there ever been a really good char created for a really bad game?

  4. What the hell How does that work? Does he thwart bad guys in a wheelchair or something?

    nope, he gets a guy who he freed from a mind conditioning cult to fight for him.

     

    the conditioning kicks back in and he goes pysco trying to kill everyone instead of throwing them in jail

     

    batman gets better and trys to reclaim the "mantle of the bat" from him

  5. dare devil is the worst idea for a video game because either

     

    A: you can see DD as in the GBA verison and this is nothing like his powers

     

    B: you can see nothing, just feel heartbeats and a very crap version of the world

     

    theres no way to make DD into a great game!!

  6. i dont believe in the death penaty, becuase i think when u die thats the end, you dont go to hell.

    so why give them the easy way out of non-exsistence?

    they will get that soon anyway in the sceme of things

     

    Ps i want to know what the smartest life form on earth is if its not humans, i go for dogs

  7. some of the comments on this thread make me sick,

     

    a person loves another person, they want to tell the world they want to be together , what does it matter what sex the two people are?

     

    imagine if your life parnter died and then you were kicked out of your house.

     

    why do you care what these people do togther and i notice that most of the "against" comments are aimed at gay men not women

  8. Pegg likes to "mention" pop culture a lot. So far what I can grab out of one viewing is:

     

    Dawn of the Dead (Music at the very end of the credits, it was played in the mall during the original "Dawn")

    28 Days Later (Reference to "Rage" monkey's at the end when Shaun is watching the tele)

    Day of the Dead (Shakling Zombies as playthings and labor)

    Night of the Living Dead (The Cellar)

    i found another reference the end of resvour dogs "stop pointing that gun at my dad!" bit.

     

    i saw this at the weekend and i thought it was crap, it was good for the first half hour, then all he did was rip off every zombie movie ever

     

    the 2004 dawn of the dead is still one of my fav films of the year and i have seen many zombie movies

  9. yeah it been out in britain at the same time as dawn of the dead,

     

    the guy who wrote and starred in it, wrote and stared in the comdey show spaced by channel four

     

    Spaced is great its about people around my age (23) and what they get up to it contain loads of movie , comic and games references you should get that too
