...I am totally excited about Retro Game Challenge.

...no, that's it, fuck all that jazz. I'm boycotting retro until it stops being the next bullet time or sandbox or whatever. Even the indie retro games. Grow up and get some fucking resolutions.

Actually, every time I sit down and do pixel art for some new game I'm going to abandon making in a month, it's always "retro". Not because I'm trying to be hip or anything, but because art can be made quickly and look fine with it.

In fairness, Game Center CX started that gangsta shit, and also they actually put a ton of effort and detail into it rather than just crapping out some lame IWBTG ripoff on WiiWare coughSEGAcough

I could not stop playing RGC all day yesterday. Until I unlocked Guadia Quest and realized I am not in the mood to play an NES RPG even the tiniest bit.

I am mostly done with it but i broke away to play lots and lots and lots of Haggleman 3. Oh god, Haggleman 3. This game is shinobi meets ninja gaiden meets Super Metroid. It's emblematic of every game in RGC in that if it had been released when i was ten years old, i would have spent months playing it sunup to sundown.

Niku · « **Reply #7 on:** February 13, 2009, 09:16:34 AM »

that is why guadia quest is annoying me so much because i really fucking want to play haggleman 3 but do not want to play guadia quest to get to it. >:||||||

i am vastly amused that niku correctly pictured himself with one mouth for each of his dinners

Apparently, when you unlock Guadia Quest in Free Play, you have to start over at the beginning. I was really excited to unlock the full version, but it's bullshit to have to play about halfway through the RPG first.

I like Guadia Quest, but it'll probably be a while before I want to start over. Other than that, my only other complaint is Rally King [spoiler]especially because you have to play it twice. At least I could cheat like crazy.[/spoiler]

just got retro games challenge and beat the shit out of NOT-GALAGA.

EDIT: FFFFF RALLY KING.

I'm usually not too keen on the Dragon Quest series, on account of it sucking, but 5's getting some decent marks and word has it you can recruit monsters to do your bidding. Are we talking anything we damn well see, or just this goofy lot of rejects?

Because Slime aside, these monsters are sucking some serious D.

yyler · « **Reply #12 on:** February 14, 2009, 11:21:33 AM »

I have come to the conclusion that if you don't enjoy RGC, you should probably just play Imagine: Petz

THAD EDIT: Stupid misuse of spoiler tagged removed; has not become any more funny or clever since the last time some idiot used it.

Ok the next game these dudes make needs to be a graphically updated sequel to Robot Ninja Haggleman 3 and they need to tout it as the first game in the series in 20 years and i will A) buy it and B) like it

Niku · « **Reply #14 on:** February 14, 2009, 12:22:20 PM »

it's actually just ps2 shinobi except now shinobi is a robot

i would never need another game again

Norondor · « **Reply #15 on:** February 14, 2009, 01:55:54 PM »

I meant a side-scroller on the DS, but that would also be a great idea!

maybe that one can be Haggleman 4 and the DS one can be Haggleman: Dark Something

Niku · « **Reply #16 on:** February 14, 2009, 01:58:40 PM »

Haggleman: Dark Something

As long as that's literally "Something" and not a placeholder for some other S-word.

DAMN SHIT!!!

The DS Haggleman is a relaunch of the 2D series that turns it into a metroidvania
