Power Strike. 

then, why not with the much better part II of it?

Well for one I've only played Power Strike 2 once or twice in an emulator.  From what I remember it was COMPLETELY different than the first one, the music wasn't anywhere near as good, but the graphics may have been better.

I like Space Megaforce, for all you haters who say it's slow, here's some news:


IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME SPEED AS PULSTAR.


And last I heard, Pulstar isn't really hated.

[GUTS]

Pulstar is shit too.

Pulstar is shit too.

Too hard for you? LOL!

[Michael Helgeson]

Pulstar isn't shit,but I do like Blazing Star more but both are awesome to me. I love that ex R-type crew Aicom. They could do no wrong.

I know Space Megaforce is hated..

Only on this board. That is a legendary game, but people hate everything on the SNES here for... obvious reasons, so... I wouldn't trust anyone here in that department.

I don't hate SNES, it's honestly my favorite console.

We probably have as many Turbo/PCE haters as SNES haters on this board.

I don't hate the Snes either,but it wasn't godly. As far as shooters go on Snes I like Super R-Type,R-Type 3,Axley,Gradius 3,U.N. Squadron, and  a few others. I also think the Snes,when the programmers were on their best could produce a good fighting game port like Power Instinct or Fighters History. I also liked Mortal Kombat 3 for Snes,along with a few others. I loved Chrono Trigger. For the longest time it was my favorite RPG. I also love Pilot Wings and F-Zero and the vast majority of generic beat'em ups by Jaleco and Super Double Dragon by Technos. Konami titles on the system seemed to about all be good games.

I think that two or three of the SNES fans around here are just too sensitive.   

Seldane cries in his pillow every time someone makes a negative comment about a "legendary" SNES game, but the fact remains that "haters" like GUTS and me are more than willing to give credit where credit is due.  GUTS has said numerous times that he loves some of the SNES RPGs, and I've been arguing that Super Castlevania IV bests Rondo of Blood for years now. 

Now, that Emerald Rocker guy is definitely an SNES-hating troll... but he also hates every HuCard game ever made, so it basically evens out. 

We'd all be more than happy to praise "legends" like Space Megaforce and Zelda III but... we don't like them.  We think they suck, and we have no qualms with poking fun at them. 

Contra Hard Corps destroys Contra III.  Deal with it.

Contra Hard Corps destroys Contra III.

ooh, I think I just threw up in my mouth


I voted for Blazing Lazers, mostly cause I'm mostly familiar with that game.  I had Robo Alest for Sega CD, but didn't really care for that one too much.  Pretty ho-hum average shmup.


Me?- I'm a lover of all the 16-bitters.

Man yea I totally hated Contra Hard Corps. I mean,a f*cking werewolf and a mini might robot on your team,that was laughable at best. Contra 3 Alien Wars had  a certain seriousness about it that was lost with Hard Corps.

[GUTS]

Yeah Pulstar is hard, but its not good hard, just bad design hard.  Blazing Star on the other hand is my favorite shooter of all time.

I agree on Contra Hard Corps being much better than III, those overhead levels on III ruined the whole game.  The werewolf guy and girl in Hard Corps were gay, but the little robot guy rules!  He has a dope machine gun and a hover jump that opens up new strategies for beating bosses that you can't use with the normal guy.  Plus the game doesn't have any mode 7 bullshit like III to ruin the flow (seriously, those levels were terrible even back when the game came out).  Its just huge awesome boss after boss with short kill-everything in sight segments in between, I don't see what there is not to like.

Sir, I whole heartedly agree with you on both points.
