You should have him stand-in for an episode and see if anyone notices.

Great idea! If only Joe could do this. 

[Joe Redifer]

No way would I ever do that. The audience would probably prefer him!

The problem with Elemental Master, is that Undeadline just destroys it in all aspects.  EM is a decent game, but man Undeadline just does it so much better.

Cool episode, glad we finally saw some Beyond Shadowgate loving!

[VenomMacbeth]

SO glad you mentioned Shinobi Legions.  I have the Japanese version & I love it, cheesy cutscenes and all!

Not in the music aspect! From what I've played of Undeadline it was initially too hard for me to care about continuing to play it. Elemental Master eases you into the difficulty like a properly designed game should. Games that are hard right off the bat are really only championed by people who consider themselves elite and I don't like those people. That said, I have not really put a lot of time into Undeadline so take my comments with a grain of salt. I do remember liking the cemetery stage.

Super is probably comparing x68k version anyways, which is totally unfair.   Both are good games on the MD, but I also prefer Elemental Master over Undeadline.

[SuperDeadite]

Actually I'm comparing the MD versions.   The MD Undeadline was done by PAL Soft and is a totally different game from the MSX and X68000 versions.  The computer versions are both awesome in a masochistic kind of way, but have parts that require pure luck to survive.  PAL Soft's changes for the MD version make it a much better game to actually play.  They completely removed all the random crap, and the focus is on pure skill.  It's a tough game for sure, but never cheap.  It's a lot like R-Type imo, when you die, it's your fault.

Why have I been ignoring Granada for so long? I was picking my jaw up off the keyboard when I saw those sprite rotational effects. Nice!

I have been hoping to come across Elemental Master for ages. Not once have I scored. I'll keep looking.

Dave really sold me on that Kirby game. I am not the hugest fan of Arkanoid clones but sometimes I like to fire one up. Like Metal Orange Kirby looks to be lots of fun!

I picked up Shinobi at MGC this year. I played through a couple stages, then put it down. Yuzo Koshiro really adds so much to the "Shinobi Experience", but I'll try to put my feelings aside and give it another chance. I might track down that European version just to have a different OST to enjoy.

Thanks for all your hard work, Joe and Dave!

Edited for disconnected thoughts that filtered onto the screen.

Don't you own an X68000 now?  Play Granada on that.  It has way better colors then the MD port.

My collection hasn't grown since MGC. I am set to maybe get hooked up with CF in a few weeks so maybe I can get Beamer to include that game. And if I do I will get the MD version anyway just for comparison's sake.
