Who has played Gunlord?
« on: June 14, 2015, 03:28:09 PM »
So I have played a few of NG.DEV.TEAM's great shooters on the Dreamcast as my friends are big fans.  We were talking about them last night and my buddy says, "Hey they made a run and gun game for DC and Neo Geo." 

I thought well hell, that's my shit and impulse purchased one on ebay.  Some of the videos I've seen it looks like Mega Turrican and Contra mated.  It looks awesome!

So my question is have any of you played it and what are your thoughts?

IMO, it feels more Turrican and less Contra. It really has that Turrican feel, but I haven't played it long enough to decide whether I like that. I think last time I played it, perhaps for an hour or two, I turned it off and went to play Super Metroid instead.

If you really dig the Turrican series, it should be a solid "revived" entry.

I should enjoy it then.  The original Turrican and Super Turrican are average in my eyes.  Super Turrican 2 is better but Mega Turrican is the best in the Turrican series imo.

I think it's ngdev best game.  The graphics,  music, etc are all top notch.  I like it more than some turrican games.

I absolutely love GunLord, to the point that after falling in love with the DC version, I bought the MVS LE release from someone on the Neo forums.  The whole game is a love letter to the Turrican series, so if you don't like those games then Gunlord may not be for you.

Here's a video review I did several months ago:

Hahaha... yours was one of the reviews I watched.  I actually have watched quite a few of your vids.  I didn't realize it was you, perhaps I should pay more attention to forum sigs.

You'll love it Desh. It's one hell of a Turrican-esque title.

Yeah its one of those games I need to purchase at some point though I'm not so sure I'll pony up the $$$ for the MVS version.

Dare I ask, how did the AES release work?  It's a homebrew game, right?  What did it cost new, etc?
