Re: Emulators / Old Games

mm i need a gamepad. i love 2d platformers.

Hammerin' Harry (mame) rocks.

Also side scrolling beat em ups like Aliens vs Predator (snes)

Also love fighters Last Blade 2 and King of Fighters '98 (Neo Geo)

oh forgot, the best fighting game is Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - must have

Re: Emulators / Old Games

me too. playing with the keyboard of the lappie sucks hard, espically for platformers and beat em ups. maybe i'll get one today.. there opened this pc store across street.. if you like platformers you def. gotta check out Demon's Crest, Cybernator and Hagane, and of course Contra III, but i bet you know that one (all for snes)... great games i think.

hammerin' harry - yeah.. "let's get busy!" lol. but i didn't like it so much to be honestly
about the sidescroller beat em ups: been playing some streets of rage 3 on megadrive... A vs. P - never tryed that
fighters: it kinda sucks too hard too play them via keyboard i think...so i quit. for me fighters are also more fun if you play against friends.. samurai shodown series was always among my favourites

i also enjoy a lot top/side view shooters.. stuff like Raiden I + II, and of course the R-Type series (delta on ps1 was really nice and of course the older ones), Darius etc. ...

JoJo - never tryed that too.. but looks nice

damn i need too get an controller

Re: Emulators / Old Games

i also play only once in a while, but sometimes it's fun, especially with friends ...

Raiden 3?? duh, missed that one, will check out!

and the whole 1941 / 43 / 45 etc WW2 shooters are kinda similar... they are for mame, but also on some other platforms i beliefe.. also aero fighters / sonic wings 1, 2, 3 are like this

but raiden is still the best, especially 2Player
