Saw this game mentioned on the latest ep. of game sack. It looks to be a fun beat um up, and the turbo doesn't have to many. So i wanted to check what you guys thought of this game
-
unfortunatelly not a good on our obey machine. it could have been much better than that :(
-
Look on the bright side, even if Mad Stalker is kind of average, it's still probably better than Genocide or Browning...
-
I just want some decent beat um ups to play. What other ones can be suggested?
-
Beat em ups are probably pce's worse genre as far as selection unfortunately....

River City Ransom, Double Dragon II, Riot Zone.

There is a homebrew beat 'em up being made for PCE as well.

old rover (coding), black tiger (ripping and recoloring of arcade BGs, tiles, sprites etc.) and paranoia (music)

I like Mad Stalker. Big and well animated sprites, lots of moves, fun to play, but a little repetitive because of a lack of variety among the enemies.
Good beat em all (in my opinion): Downtown Nekketsu Monogatori, Vigilante, Kaze Kiri ... Ane San is cool but either you like it or hate it.

So mad stalker is better on the X68000?
-
Is the gameplay better on X68000? I know that the X68000 version has parallax scrolling while the TCD version does not, unfortunately, but did they downgrade the gameplay too? The TCD version is alright, but I don't know how it plays on other platforms.
-
x68k is much richer in action and nicer grafx and speed and yeah parallax and almost everything else that is in a way comparable.
to be honest, i kinda find the PCE version lacking a lot of its initial drive and is kinda dull to play. it was a rushed and sloppy port in my eyes, which could have been done much better on ACD. sue the lack of parallax is forgivable.
-
The PCE one is still better then the FM Towns port. Even on a 486, the Towns version is still unplayable shit.
-
I played all the way to the final level on Mad Stalker a few years back. It's a decent game, nothing too special. Definitely not as nice looking as the X68000. Nice music from what I recall though.
-
is Genocide better on the 68000?
-
Genocide 1 on X68000 sucks.
The FM Towns remake however is quite good.
Genocide 2 however is nicer on X68000 as the Towns version lost some parallax.

The game isn't as deep as say Ranger x or Cybernator, but when you look at those huge sprites moving that fast and big beautifully animated explosions, plus awesome, awesome sound fx, i think its one of the coolest robot/mech games ever, cool as hell.
