Gonna be brutally honest this sounds like it would’ve sucked. Much as I love Tenacious D I can’t lie and say there are only CERTAIN types of movies their music would fit, and Medievil just isn’t one of them. Whole thing sounds like it’d be another ratchet and clank movie/devil may cry anime.
Played mega man 2 and beat it via his msu port and it’s SHOCKING how much of a difference this makes with games. They legit feel better to play than the actual official Wily Wars remakes IMO
I swear every day that passes I feel more and more assured to NOT get the Switch 2 lmao
I think this is fair seeing how intensive these filters can get but all the other horse$#|¥ they’ve been pulling like refusing to credit anyone who works on their projects in end-credits, suing people for being inspired by them, charging money for console tutorial software and making us pay 70-80$ for games even though they aren’t impacted by tariffs anymore is a different story. Someone needs to drop Doug into a cartoonishly red pit of lava over a bridge like the REAL Bowser at this point 💀.
These games are all p cool, but in NO universe am I gonna pay this company's AAA 60$ prices for them when I can play them on an emulator for free. If they were budget priced like what Ratalaika or Hamster puts out I'd be all in for it. Unless it's a full on remake, modern rereleases of retro games should not be more than 20 dollars MAX.
visuals are ugly as sin but the gameplay actually looks really good and like they respected the series formula when making it, will deffo give it a shot!
@Aran_md nah they straight up try to erase it, if ppl make fangames of stuff like golden axe or streets of rage they go full Nintendo and take them down. Not to mention how they axed sega forever and delisted the genesis collection from storefronts, they’re worse than Konami and Nintendo at this point💀
<Sega> LMAAAOOOOOOOOO yeah ok right next you’ll be telling me Nintendo is gonna start embracing their fan creators or Warner Bros is gonna focus on the Looney Tunes
@Tasuki I’m genuinely convinced Troy Baker is IRL Clayface cause bro can do literally ANY voice and do it damn near perfectly. I normally have a problem with ppl voicing a super large ammount of characters and constantly getting hired for projects but that dude’s vocal range is so unreal im all for it every time
Idk bro I never got the vibe dr Mario was a Tetris ripoff, the “vertical stack things make things disappear get blingo boingo points” genre was made BECAUSE of Tetris, that’s like getting mad at Mega Man because “it ripped off Mario”, you can’t get mad at people for making games in a genre YOU started💀
Love this genre of eu platformer where they just completely vomit their brain onto the levels with a bunch of absurd surrealist imagery without any worry for cohesion or sense. This whole game gives me the same energy as stuff like JJ Squawkers and Top Banana only yknow. Minus the seizure risk💀
“the 1990s, when game boxes were TRANSFORMING ROBOTIC ART PIECES.“ yeah ok bro don’t act like yall didn’t still get garbage like dashin desperados and time cop back then too lmao
Aside from Guardian Heroes Advance which is imo the only bad game Treasure have ever made, their GBA lineup is fantastic and is very much worthy of their legacy imo, Gunstar Super being no exception to that!
love this overly in your face unhinged era of gaming magazines so much, every article and advertisement and review was like "HEY WORMSUCKER!!!!!! YOU'RE STUPID, GO SUCK UP AND SQUAREDANCE WITH YOUR GRANNY WHILE CRYING ON PROM NIGHT IF YOU DON'T WANNA PLAY HAMMERIN' HARRY ON THE GAME BOY, GET N OR GET TO SUCKING KITTY LITTER ON THE KINDERGARTEN BUS!!!!!!" it's so earnest and charming to me lmao.
@KainXavier LITERALLY THO!!! As a kid every time I’d come up to those 500 in one arcade cabinets I’d ALWAYS immediately do this game instead of pac man or donkey kong cause it gave me that thrilling shoot and dodge gameplay that I always crave lmao. Will absolutely be picking this up ASAP.
@RextheSheep oh no worries I have no doubt there are good sides of it and that it’s not all bad, I’m mainly saying this because of the people who let their love for retro games cloud their judgement for this kinda crap XD. Also I feel ya two on the getting screwed over by companies as someone who had to put up with strictly limited and the bullsh1t they pulled for the Turrican Anthologies💀
@slider1983 that may have been the intention behind Paprium but between the game taking 10 years to come out, people not getting their cartridges even now, Fons constantly going on psychotic Joker mental breakdowns online, and the EXHORBENT price tag the game has ESPECIALLY if trying to buy it second hand completely ruin the whole thing. Why should I give this game and it’s horrible creator my money when I could get streets of rage 1-3, final fight cd, hyperstone heist, golden axe, and SO many more on the same console for (mostly) 5x less the price? Not to mention all the AMAZING modern beat em’ ups nowadays like streets of rage 4 and shredder’s revenge that similarly cost less too.
This BS is why i ALWAYS choose emulation rather than giving these psychos my money. Theyre all just a bunch of sick in the head grifters who view old video games as some bizzare get-rich-quick scheme rather than as the cherishable pieces of art they are, and it blows up in their face spectacularly. We saw it with Paprium, we saw it with SuperSega, we saw it with Strictly Limited games, we saw it with Piko interactive, and we’ll continue to see it until the end of time. Idc about the “physical authenticity” if I have to obtain said authenticity by forking 80-100 bucks over to an irl Silent Hill villain who likely won’t even deliver on their promises, it’s just not worth it to me.
Even if it isn’t dead there’s no reason to be interested in this game. It’s just a bog standard beat em up that does nothing to push the genre forward and is headed by one of the biggest clinical psychopaths in the gaming industry, that’s not even mentioning the ludicrous price tag attatched to the thing and the near decade long wait for ppl to even GET their cartridges. Dont see why I should give this my time of day when infinitely better games like streets of rage 4, shredders revenge, fight’n’rage, final vendetta and all the countless openBOR projects exist, not to mention all the sega genesis homebrew projects that ARENT complete dumpster fires for WAAAAYYYYY less.
It should genuinely be illegal to sell 30 year old games for THIS high of a price, legit no reason to get this instead of emulation which is not only free, but available on more platforms and runs far more accurately.
@gojiguy Didn't notice it was AI until you brought it up. Ew, on second thought I think I'm ok giving this one a pass. If the devs are too lazy to pay an actual artist, then I'm too lazy to give them my money.
Praying they continue showcasing cool development stuff that was never released before and don't go the sonic twitter route of "WHEN YOU GET AXEL STONE TO GRAND UPPER YOUR LE EPIC MICROWAVABLE BURRITO BOTTOM TEXT" lmao
Between this, the fact it's a PS5 exclusive, and the fact the trailer basically shows off no gameplay, I like everyone else in the coments have very little confidence this'll be a game worth spending money on, lmao.
