SirSmUgly Posted May 1, 2020 Author Share Posted May 1, 2020 Kinda shocked that SoR4 turned out good. I hope the music slaps like in the other games, especially SoR2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really does and better yet there's an option for classic songs. The enemies and their weapons are so great in that game. I've only played the first two levels but the taser and baton in the police station are so powerful. Love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coletti Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Streets Of Rage 4 definitely fucking rules. Absolutely gorgeous art and they made the combat true to the old games yet still amped up and improved. I'm getting my ass whooped on normal difficulty because I immediately go back to my childhood and wanting to just jump headlong into the fight with zero patience or strategy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Control Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 I was confusing STREETS OF RAGE with FINAL FIGHT. This discovery also led me to realize that Mike Haggar looks like a Tom of Finland drawing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromatagon Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) Streets of Rage 2 had an actual Tom of Finland meets Razor Ramon Hard Gay character as a boss and unlockable(but I think you have to play the Bloody Knuckle version) but they threw in every gay stereotype they could into one character and it doesn't age well. I think I'm doing my best as Samoan Jax on the new one. Edited May 2, 2020 by Tromatagon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 My sister got me the Sega Collection on the Switch last year for a birthday present and I decided to go back and play Streets of Rage 1-3 until my friends get going with 4 shortly. I mostly played 2 and 3 as a kid but holy shit was 1 great for '91. The boss mechanics were brilliant, the back strike great for the time. Just a legendary game. Then in 2 they go even further in getting as much as they can out of three buttons with the different combinations and such without making it overly complicated. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southside Jim Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Jesus Christ, copies of the "bulletin board poster" from the original release of Maniac Mansion are going for $700-$1500 on eBay, depending on quality. The worst thing is, I'll probably eventually buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I hope you people telling me that Streets of Rage 4 is great are right cuz I just pre-ordered the physical PS4 version from Limited Run Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 (edited) They did pretty much the ideal update of a retro game, not reinventing the wheel but giving us a whole lot of new stuff while modernizing it in smart ways. It's a brilliant love letter to the beat 'em ups of the early '90s. I didn't love the art style at first but it works pretty well and I quickly grew to like it once I was playing.

This reminds me how much I miss indie gaming. I don't enjoy digital gaming that much - I prefer to own - and I find that during this crisis I'm just not spending money. I've been a regular customer of the collectible physical publishers (Limited Run Games, iam8bit, Strictly Limited Games, etc.), but I've pretty much sworn off all of them until this settles down. Too much uncertainty about production, shipping dates, international shipping, companies even being in business if they can't sell and ship for the next six months, etc. The companies keep putting games up for pre-order and I say "nope" and play the Gamecube. I don't miss the shortages and inflated secondhand market LImited Run Games' business model creates, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technico Support Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) I used the Coronavirus stay at home downtime to turn a cheap Playstation Classic into an emulation machine and it's so worth it. Edited May 5, 2020 by Technico Support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda want boycott LRS and the like, but.... games I want to play. Honestly, I'm into gaming a lot less than I was three months ago. Not sure I have much interest in spending much money on games right now. I'm kinda assuming I'll pick up the indie titles I'm missing off eBay when people actually have them in hand (and probably pay a substantial markup), but that may not happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 The Council is pretty much what I've wanted out of the Telltale Games but never got. The character designs kind of freak me out a little bit, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Hooked up my PSVR for the first time since Christmas because I craved some full immersion Tetris Effect, and finally tried Astrobot Rescue. It can be a little frustrating, but it's charming AF and I'm having a blast with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coletti Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Speaking of PSVR, one of my fucking cats chewed up the cable for the headset so that's awesome. I don't have the skills or patience to try to fix it myself, Sony's mail in repair service is not going on right now, and straight up new headset is impossible to find. So that rules.
