Still Catching-Up

Finished Sonic Advance, and on to Sonic Advance 2. Anyone who's been missing Sonic's 2D glory days on the Genesis needs to play the Advance series if they haven't already. Almost done Gunstar Super Heroes (last boss). Haven't had a chance to sit down with Gears Of War 2 or Majora's Mask recently... Been building-up my PCE/TG16 CD experience though:
  • Bomberman: Awesome version of the classic game.
  • Bonk III CD: Still awesome, CD audio is a nice upgrade.
  • Beyond Shadowgate: This was a surprise; a solid adventure game! Controls take some getting used to, but there's some good stuff here.
  • Castlevania: Dracula X: Best game on the system. Possibly the best game on any system... Ever.
  • Forgotten Worlds: Great version of a great shoot-'em-up.
  • Gate Of Thunder: Another awesome shoot-'em-up.
  • Last Alert: Sweet top-down action game with notably gory gameplay and unintentionally funny voice acting.
  • Lords Of Thunder: Yet another great shoot-'em-up, but with a medieval/norse theme.
  • Fighting Street: Awful game, barely playable, only significant historically.
  • Shadow Of The Beast: Some weird kind of action/adventure game with sweet graphics and awful gameplay.
  • Shape Shifter: Unique action/RPG, solid gameplay, high production values for its time.
  • Super Air Zonk: Yet another great shoot-'em-up, but with particularly weird cartoon graphics.
  • Super Raiden: Great port of the seminal shoot-'em-up, with sweet CD audio.
  • Valis II: Bad control, boring gameplay.
  • Valis III: Huge improvement over Valis II, I specifically like the playable/in-engine cutscenes.
  • Ys Boook I & II: Haven't played it yet.
  • Ys III: Haven't played this one yet either.
