Title: what could have been done on the pc-fx !
Post by: starbuck on July 30, 2001, 11:44:00 AM

Do you think that a shmup such as thunder force 5 could have been done on the pc-fx ?
I sincerely think that the pc-fx can handle those multiple scrolling, photorealistic backgrounds... I'm worried about the polygon count, though... I'm not sure that this console can push that much polys/sec...
A thunderforce 4 conversion or upgrade would have been nice!!!

Hey, ANY polygon action game would have been nice!  As for making Thunder Force 5 on the FX...well, I really don't think it could do that many real polys, but they could do sprite-drawn ones like Sapphire....i'm sure it would look good on the FX. Aaron Nanto
