Re: Review - Blade Force

Agreed. It sucks. There was so much hype I couldn’t wait to play it, and was underwhelmed to say the least.

Re: Looking for old Gex dev interview

I really enjoyed reading that. I think that the frustration involved making that game really showed in the final product. I never liked Gex, I found the controls aggravating and the game concept all over the place and incoherent.

Re: Need for Speed on 3DO destroys the other 32-bit versions

I had both versions and they were pretty much identical. I just hate playing video games on a computer, so I never much liked the PC version. I'm 46 years old now and I bet I spent 28 years of my life playing NFS on my 3do!

Sad news

One of my favorite 3do "characters" has died. One of the best parts of Need for Speed was this guy's over the top taunting.

There's a guy selling Plumbers Don't Wear Ties for 129.99 on Ebay. Maybe there should be an "Ebay WTF man" sticky thread.

Re: Road Rash getting back into it.

I've tried on and off for about twenty years to finish Road Rash! I can never finish the final race. I'll be impressed if you do it. Good luck!

He got one thing right.. "Seriously... there's no point" I really tried hard to like this game but it was just impossible to get anywhere with it. I ended up selling it.

A google search reveals: The term originated in Japan, although the concept of a long distance relay race is probably not original or unique to any country. The first ekiden race was sponsored by the Yomiuri Shimbun in 1917, and was run over three days between the old Japanese capital of Kyoto and t...

Introduce Myself

I have been reading these boards for years, but only recently decided to register. I got my 3DO in 1995 after a friend of mine showed me how awesome it was (is). The first few games I got (which are still my favorite 3DO games) were: Wing Commander III Need for Speed Road Rash FIFA Star Control II K...
