Snatcher (Sega CD) - Retro Gaming Review 

yea cause the price is STILL thru the roof on ebay...

Yup. Playing Snatcher for the first time on Pie Modded Arcade1Up SF2 cab. Really good.

@Till This Day that's true

I uh *cough* cyberpunked a disc to play.

+electricmastro Plus his desire to have ridiculously detailed world. There's a computer in the game with a giant database, you search random words and it comes up with all this in-game history and details for all these words. No wonder he wanted to have all his games take part in the same universe and timeline.

It helped that the quality of the voice work in the game was many years ahead of its time in quality.

@@XH1927 compare to resident evil and how critically acclaimed that was

I can't stop looking at that cat.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Glad you liked it!

Thanks!

Late to comment, I know, but I completely agree! You got some great taste there, buddy!

bro’ what drugs you on?

@@DJDanceClassic Just goes to show you don't know what epic games really are!

Thanks :)

+Round2GamingChannel Thanks so much :) The game certainly has some flaws, but the overall game is good enough to make them not so bad to deal with.

Welcome to the channel

Thanks!

+Andy Lynn Thanks so much :)

+KeltainenBike Thank you. I love SoftAnna

No problem!

Thanks!

Thank you

Thanks so much, it's weird looking back at videos from years ago.

+The Unsung Hero Thank you!

No idea, actually. There were quite a few changes from the original to the Sega CD version, including the whole 3rd act.

+esotericmissionary The music in Snatcher is so good! I'll keep an eye out for Rise of the Dragon, it sounds good.

+Stefan Homberger Thank you!

Looks like Reddit thinks your link is spam as well, the post was removed.

@@Cannotbetamed1 Ya I made a new thread and contacted the moderators on r/Roms to clear it up. Not unusual for downloads like these to get caught in spam filters so it's no worries. The second link should work but I've taken the downloads down for now while I continue working on them. I finished up my Policenauts Directory but I'm currently testing it. Thank you for the heads up!

+DubiousGamingOnline They are pretty cool and there's extensive use of voice acting.

Thanks!

+TheJobberHunter Thanks!

It was the most frustrating part of the game by far.

It's a really fun one, so stylish and great music.

+SegaCDUniverse Thank you!

+Ricardo Espergue That's a good idea. I don't really expect Konami to make any smart decisions though/

Thanks!

+Retro Cynical This is definitely the best game I've played on the system so far. Though I do have a weakness for hokey FMV games.

Trust me it was your mistake

I really want to play that at some point

Yes, I'm looking forward to watch your review! Kisses!

+nywlaw thanks! The play through is posted

Have you checked out SDatcher by SUDA51?? It's a prequel that's a radio drama, and it's pretty damn good. The english translation is on RU-vid.

Got mine back in the day and still have it!

That sequel just needs to happen! This game is so amazing!

+Dave's Retro Game Show Thanks!

+R. F. R. Thank you!

+AlTheStal87 Thanks! I think the light gun would be pretty cool.

It really should get a digital release somewhere.

Thanks a lot :)

Hmm, I don't think it's possible to get stuck. Have you tried going to your apartment to rest and coming back?

I'd say the Sunset Riders bonus game is straight out of Snatcher, since it originally released in 1988. I have played Sunset Riders (and reviewed it), but am more familiar with the Genesis version, which doesn't have that bonus game, than SNES or arcade.

You're right! I was wondering how anyone could forget the bonus game, but the Genesis not having it would explain it.

Do you remember what emulator?

+Botza Brand I don't really associate shooting segments or puzzles with RPGs. I'd love for Policenauts to be made more accessible, everyone's recommending it now.

+Cannot be Tamed Normally they wouldn't, but those factors cause a deeper sense of immersion in the narrative, which I would define more towards a role playing game, instead of turn based combat applying to an rpg, if that makes any sense.

+Cannot be Tamed I personally didn't find Policenauts as impressive as Snatcher, but it's still one of my all time favorites and I recommend playing it if you enjoyed Snatcher.

Yeah, I'll try to figure out how I can play it one of these days.

Cannot be Tamed I played it on an emulator myself, but if you're not a fan of emulation, there are ways to play it on a PSP or on a PS1 and PS2. I don't know how it's like playing it that way, but a person once told me he preferred emulation since it's a bitch to get a PS1 or PS2 to play copied games. Also, he said there were some glitches present on the console, and when I played on emulation, I don't remember any serious glitches. Also, I was planning on doing a review and unboxing video of the PS1 version, so if you're interested, I'll let you know when it's up. It'll be spoiler free, just in case you're worried about spoilers.

+Lord JS Yeah, my next one will be NES.

Okay. I look forward to it.

Good luck

@@Cannotbetamed1 Thank you. The interface and game system is quite unfriendly sometimes, but the plot and atmosphere is stunning. I want to know more :-)

Happy birthday!

+SKMCTV Thank you :) I like to keep things chill.

+Aaron Jacobson Here's my footage of that last 30 minutes, if you want to see it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S9bLjcKXKY4.html

+Cannot be Tamed Thanks! Doesn't look like I missed much, though. Definitely a low point in an otherwise great game.
