Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon is a game that I too rented multiple times but could never progress further than getting Yae. Picked up a copy a few years back and finally dedicated a full playthrough early this year, 2024. The full game is amazing. Taking over 20+ years to beat it felt like realizing your soulmate was someone you've always known but never pursued far enough. Enjoy it!
my Rom Library is much like this, a lot of games that i havent picked up and played longer than making sure it functions properly. this is why i interact with RetroAchievements is so i play more than just the games that i prefer and actually try to beat/complete them.
Mystical Ninja is the one that got away for me. Now I can't find a copy and when I can I can't afford it. Front Mission is a blast. Go for the arms, you'll thank me.
Hey!! We've got some Florida people in here 👍Mt. Dora for me, right in the middle of the state. Another fantastic video by my favorite streamer! I always look forward to any new vids. GO GEN X🤘🤘
11:45 - Shadow of Mordor is AMAZING, as is the sequel. LOTR games from Peter Jackson's take are mostly great. and EA did different things with the handheld versions of the games than the Console Ports, if that wasnt enough Battle For Middle Earth 1 & 2 are RTS games set in the LOTR Universe, the first fixating on the Trilogy and then the sequel tellng the unseen story of The War in the North, including Legolas' father and Elrond. the BFME games are Abandonware and therefore legal to download wherever you can find them. sadly since EA no longer holds the precious LOTR rights, they can never make sequels that many of their fans would love to see, so what we have, we covets them.
I have lots of games on my PS4 and on Steam that I haven't played. I still have not played Hollow Knight, Bioshock, and Bioshock 2. Those are the top 3 that come to mind. Every time I have vacation from work, I always make it a point to play some of the games I just never fired up. I've had a mixed bag of games whenever I fire up a game that's been just sitting there un-played. I've had games that were crap and should have stayed un-played, games that were extremely overrated, and games that were really fun and I wish I'd played them sooner.
We all have a game or 2 that we own but haven't put the time in to play. More now than when we were younger. Content and older games are so readily available today like they never were before. I just went to a Retro Con gaming event in Portland Oregon where I live,and it was funny to see all these classic NES games at 70 different booths all at different prices and in different condition. Front Mission looks pretty cool. Hearing you talk about Fatal Fury 3 was pretty damn funny LOL, The play control was always difficult you have a better chance of hitting the POWERBALL than executing a super move when you want to. I liked the characters but the play control always felt blocky not smooth like SF2. The computer in most FF games felt like it could read your input so quickly and just kick your ass like MK3. I still hate that fucking game. I really enjoyed the King of Fighters games later on with teams I thought that was pretty cool. Out west we did have a lot of SNK arcade cabinets usually with 3 or 4 games in each cabinet you could switch titles to the one you wanted. SNK in a lot of ways had good ideas and never was afraid to try new things. Samurai Showdown was always a cool title where you could slice your opponent in half at the end of each battle. Twisted Metal I own and have beat it. The problem is TM2 is a damn masterpiece and just about a perfect game. The problem with Twisted Metal 1 was that you had background shit hitting you from behind that was annoying as fuck and little guys that respawned so you couldn't wait a second for the computer cars to come to you so you could ambush them. You couldn't freeze an opponent without the freeze missile to tee off on someone, also the areas were bigger and the map harder to read where your opponents are. I almost never play this game its funny to hear my son 9 year old son say "Screw that Ice cream truck" and worse things. My son and I love playing TM2. Funny now that he learned about the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, Empire State building from blowing them up in the game. I met all the actors from the original MK 1 game at the Retro con and although I didn't have $140 to get a signature from all of them they were nice people to visit with and get to know. They are all pretty small like 5'5" and 5"6" but look so much bigger in the game but wonderful people overall. Met the guy who did the NBA Jam voicework as well he was funny as hell you could hear him talk anywhere in the whole convention center. Highly recommend if they are coming to your area. Also they were doing Tetris, and Super Smash Bros tournaments.
The game Front Mission is very interesting! It looks like a Final Fantasy Tactics clone. A lot of similarities with that game, just using the Mech theme instead of fantasy. Definitely will check out Front Mission. It kind of makes sense if Square worked on it, but if it is a legacy title, then maybe Final Fantasy Tactics is the Clone🤔
I live in NJ so like the idea of Twisted Metal in general, but I'd rather play a modernized Roadblasters where you just have to get to work and pick up your kids while shooting asshole drivers. TM lost me with the guy killing his family. That's not fun or funny to me.
@@FortefyreHave you watched Eraserhead? I wonder if that was a reference to The Lady in the Radiator squishing the falling worms...not a fan either way. #LeaveThoseKidsAlone
@@Fortefyre sounds like you need to start planning for a stream. I hate to start a game I won’t be able to dedicate the time to finish and now is a busy season for me
It was worth the $30 I paid many years ago. However the Babel tower annoyed me with how much I kept falling in it that I ended up selling the game because I was at the point that I almost took my disc out and snapped it.
Beyond Good and Evil? If you've never played it, don't bother. The game is just eye candy with HORRIBLE controls. Your main character Jade takes forever to respond to your imputs she take a ton of hits and dies. Boss fights are impossible.
