I could so go for some real Kimmelwack rolls right now.  I'd eat some with every meal if I could....

Latest shipments...Swords of Destiny is pretty awesome, enjoying it more than Devil May Cry. And I can now understand what all the Yuna hype is about. Also...Dogora may be the strangest Japanese monster movie I've ever seen.

I heard that Jim Power has very good graphics but horrible controls. Let us know how it plays.

Jim Powers most notably has good musics and.. yeah good musics.

Graphic wise it is far inferior compared to the original Amiga version. Control isn't the best either.

Actually, I know that Jim Power is known to be bad but I'm going to go against the grain...I love this game. The controls really aren't that bad. The one hit kills might get annoying if you like to rush through levels, and the jumping takes some getting used to. But I find the game enjoyable enough to play through...I haven't beat it yet though. There is also a cheat mode that can add to the fun, but I want to try to beat the game before messing around with it.

If you want to talk horrible controls...Slime World takes the win. What a slug-fest. I had high hopes for this game too.

Doesn't Jim Power have only one tune?  I know the Mega Drive version has but one track.  I really like Chris Hülsbeck's (or however you spell his name) arrangement of it located on some non-game music CD with arrangements of his tunes.  I haven't heard the PCE arrangement of the tune yet.

No, this version has a track for every level as well as boss music...and it is a surprisingly good soundtrack. Check out the music for level 3, it's my fav:

And I just checked out the Mega Drive song which ironically is the same as the song for Level 3. 

But check out the other Jim Power songs posted by the same youtuber....good stuff.

Yeah, that's the arranged version I am talking about.  It's pure win.

Jim Powers has an excellent soundtrack, worth the purchase alone IMO!

Hülsbeck is one of my favorite game composers, loved the turrican game soundtracks he worked on!!  Truly legendary!
More people should share their Jim Powers love!!
