Game Sack

Only console I've bought at launch is the 360. Waited in line for 12hrs at wally world.

After the RROD debacle, it will remain the only console I buy at launch too.

It's a shame that they focused so much on 3D that gen (but I get it, and games were evolving) because 2D on the Saturn looks great.

@Zerogamer: I agree, there are not many benefits to being an early adopter. Pay more, have less selection when you buy it and possibly (especially lately) have poor build quality. Thankfully Sony moved on from the original model PS3 pretty quickly.

2D also looked great on the playstation.  Off the top of my head, take another look at Megaman X games, Symphony of the Night, Lowmax, Legend of Mana.

Yeah if you compare Saturn to PS1, the 2D is better on Saturn as a general rule (lol SotN).  Capcom and SNK fighters are pretty good examples of this.  But just because Saturn looks better doesn't mean that PS1 didn't still look good.

Oh I wasn't meaning to slam the PS1 or anything. I just haven't played any PS1 games in a long time so I wasn't thinking about anything on it whereas I still play Saturn pretty regularly so it's fresh on my mind. Oddly enough, I think the last game I played through on PS1 was in fact SOTN.

So you got me thinking, Adventures of Lomax looks pretty cool. So I strolled over to Ebay and noooooooooope.

Jesus!  I wanted it for a long while and finally bit the bullet and bought it a year ago for I think $35.  The $200 sales HAVE to be shills.  Multiple copies still being sold for $50 while before and after said copies are $200+?  Call me a conspiracy theorist if you must but I don't think that's how this works in a fair economy.

[Gypsy]

Yeah I refuse to pay those prices. Fortunately, there seems to be a PC version that is cheap. Feels like price fixing to me too, and I don't often think that.

This episode was a nice diversion from the normal themed episodes.

I do love that Alpha Denshi T-shirt of yours, Joe.

the new video on game backlog was amazing, maybe a continuation down that path or bring random battle back? either way I still watch all the episodes you put up

Never seen that Nanatsu Kaze game for Saturn looks really nice.  I think I'll give it a try at some point.

Latest back in japan episode was good, zoomed right by. That Saturn game does look neat.

I almost thumbed it down for lack of PCE, but naw.
