I've decided to sit down and beat my first Castlevania game and I chose Castlevania IV. This game is amazing.

I wholeheartedly support that decision!  ^_^b  Castlevania 4 is not my favourite in the series, but I have several friends who swear by it!

love castlevania 4. the 8 way whipping is so much fun.

Hahaha  I know I love just holding down the button and flinging the whip.

You'll need it.

Played and beat Thunder Force III tonight finally clearing it for the first time. With all the hardcore shooters I have been playing lately I was able to cut right through the game with ease. Gate of Thunder is definitely the harder shooter as I have yet to clear it.

I recently rearranged my 8- and 16-bit systems so the NES, SNES, GENESIS and TURBOGRAFX-16 systems (+ others) were hooked up to my 27" tube TV.  Previously I had a couple of those systems hooked up to the big-ass LCD in the living room, but they never looked right.  So since everything is now being displayed properly on a tube TV, I went ahead and calibrated the TV again and went to town on old-school gaming goodness.

So to test the new setup, I played:

NES: Blaster Master, Gradius, Galaga
Genesis: Steel Empire, Castle of Illusion
SNES: Mega Man X, Gradius III, Pop'n Twin Bee, F-Zero
TG-16: Galaga '90, OotG (since I put in OotG I really haven't played anything else)

[roflmao]

I beat Raiden Trad on the SNES today (... on easy :oops:).  I know it's not the greatest shmup evar, but I enjoyed playing through it.  Now I'd like to hunt down a copy for our beloved system.

Been having a hankering for some Mickey's Mousecapade...especially since I hear there may be a new one coming after almost a couple of decades.

I downloaded that from GOG a while back. Great game, and to make things even better it's a free download!

Yea, it's really killer so far.  It plays like Loom and feels like the original Fallout.  I've heard of ScummVM a while back and never really thought too much of it.  That was until I tried it.  Just amazing!  Access to a crapload of great oldschool point and click adventure games!!

Brilliant!
