We should count the number of games with bears as playable characters in them on each system and see which console is most in love with bears.  Japanese games count.  I bet the Turbo/PC Engine would win.

Well, I still stand by my word, that I think it's an ok game.  It deffinitly ain't good, great, or grand, but, it's ok.  Graphics?  The only stuff I think that looks graphically cool, is maybe the vertical flying squequence...I think.  And also that scene with the ....bah, I can't remember the name of the pirates giant air ship, but, there's a cinema with a picture of it, & it looks cool to me.  I can't recall anything else being noteworthy graphically.  The music is ok, it's kind of fun & Disneyesque.

You're nuts!

Beyond that, I doubt I'll ever be able to force myself to play the game long enough to experience those heart-stopping graphical wonders.

Talespin and Darkwing Duck are coming my way soon, so quit harshing my vibe dudes.  :D

Actually, I expect the sucktitude.  The price was just too low to pass up, so two shitty games were added to the collection.

Did you take advantage of those eBay links I posted?

Either way, if it makes you feel any better, Darkwing Duck is a trillion times better than Talespin. At least you can have half a day of fun.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I think there is a character limit on these message entry forms.

Altered Beast!

Anyway, I agree with Nat. I think Talespin stinks.

The NES version, which is a side scrolling shooter, is a bit more fun. Although to be honest I probably would never have played it if it weren't for my neigbor's strict Seventh Day Adventist mother, who didn't let him have too many games. Talespin was one of his few games so we played it quite a bit. I think I went so far as to borrow it and beat it.

But that was the NES version....

The Turbo Grafx version....  :-& [-X

The Turbo Grafx version....  Sick Shame on you

I am not in the least surprised that Tailspin stinks. But like Joe said, it's easy to get this game mixed up with Yo Bro and Camp California.

Jeeze all you guys getting Darkwing Duck, Yo Bro, Camp California, and Tailspin and I'm being talked out of buying Xevious for the PCE. lol  :roll:  :P

Indeed I did; I also have such gems as Gunboat, Falcon, R-Type, Silent Debuggers, and Dragon Spirit coming my way.  I'm starting to get a bit nervous, as it's been nearly two weeks since I ordered them, but I suppose that traveling half way 'round the world takes time.

I got both my packages from both sellers. MoreDiscsUK took a lot longer to ship my games than SimpleSimon did (2 weeks, plus). I wouldn't worry just yet.

Alright, I won't; given MoreDiscsUK feedback, it doesn't surprise me that shipping is so slow.  The part that bugs me is that they say that they'll ship via Royal Mail Airmail - Small Packets, which claims delivery in one week.  Oh well, the price was right.

Yes sir, I did.  How long have you been waiting?

I say relax guys. It took them an awful long time to get here, but they did. And they were packaged great and in PRISTINE condition. I'm not complaining.

I don't know if I would say Impossamole is great, but, I do love it, despite it's annoying flaws.  I used to hate it, but, it grew on me back in the day.  And if I'm nuts, well, then, call me Mr. Nutz(I think that was an Amiga/SNES game) :)

Guess its all a part of our character makeup- the suckfests and the lunatics who love them.    :D =P~ :D
