How did the guy get away with such ridiculously obvious cheats like the Centipede one? That should've been a clear problem that then makes the rest of his scores questionable. I've always had a soft spot for speedrunning, never something I do myself, I'm interested in playing new games than just focusing on single games, but it's good to see a cheater get the boot, especially one that managed to do so in a way to get himself into prominence.Not only was one of his friends a "referee" for many of those runs ( who is now serving jail time), but he was also a referee which meant that he got free access to input his own scores to the scoreboard as a staff member, along with the fact that a lot of people said he could do no wrong because of his " legendary status" from setting those " records" from the 80s.
You have to keep in mind that this is 1995. Most people bought these ports just to be to experience a half decent conversion, and since these were straight arcade ports most companies focused on just porting arcade content, which would reduce dev time. Its not until a few years later where you start to see arcade ports with added content ( mostly in ps1 fighters like jojo bizzare adventure/ street fighter alpha 3 or daytona usa cce).I just wanna say. Sega Rally Championship is the shortest game ever. I can't even believe it, it's about 10 minutes long. The driving and the graphics are pretty amazing for it's time, but 3 races and the game is over? It's set up so that you start the first race in 20th place, there's only one lap, and you gradually catch up to first place by the end of the third race. If you win, you unlock a fourth track. That's it. That's the entire game.
That's more than Ridge Racer, a PS1 launch title, had. All it does is add a few turns to the track, make you go backwards on it, or change it to night to change things up. But it's still fun as hell.
I just can't see people paying like $60 for the same deal they had in the arcades at the time for maybe 75 cents a go. They could have mirrored the tracks, added difficulties, added multiple lap races. There's so much they could have done to increase replayability for a home console port.
Come now, MvC2 graces us daily with food for the mind and you wanna label it spam? This is in off-topic, it's not like he's sticking it in classic gaming or something. Even if you don't find his posts amusing (which I do, greatly) is it really so bad in a posting pool of a liberal guess of 30 or so people to shake things up a bit? I think there is room for posts that are meant for the purpose of being entertaining rather than pure discussion. I say if you find it annoying, simply avoid them, their mere presence is doing no harm and give me a good chuckle regularly.They're not really entertaining to me anymore, and mostly fall under a line of trying to sound profound while not having anything of substance. He'll post them here, and never expand upon them.
He is also Mike Tyson as you know, and a few too many knocks to the head effect cognitive faculties. I didn't know you where a bunch of abelists. I for one am triggered.
Sine Mora EX is a fantastic shooter, with a solid story. Don't see too many people talking about it, so might fit what your're looking for.Probably because the game mechanics and feel of the ship movement, which were lacking the original release, didn't really get fixed for this definitive release, along with a number of other issues. Playing one of the stg's on the ACA Neo Geo Archives would be a far better option imo.
