Touche Tiger!

The difference for me is that with Talespin there is also a shooter for the NES that revolves around flying the plane... Most of my memories about the show tend to revolve around the plane...

Although, in Ducktales' favor, collecting gems and amassing a fortune (haha i remember Scrooge's voice as he said fortune in the cartoon LOL) is a big part of the game.

I don't remember the Tailspin plain having any cannons on it in the cartoon. :wink:

 Heh....
 I actually had Talespin back in the day.

 And I LIKED it! I found the ending, in particular, to be inspiring.

 Of course, I was only about eleven at the time.

So Necromancer, what'd you think of Talespin now that you've had a chance to play it?

It blows syphilitic goats, to put it nicely; Darkwing Duck is much more playable, not that it doesn't also suck.  Maybe if I put more time into 'em, I'd get a little further and actually start enjoying 'em, but that sounds as unlikely as enjoying a prostate exam if it'd just last a bit longer.

I hate to say it, but I actually like Tailspin. Not the greatest game ever, but far from the worst. I'll play it on occasion, er, once I score a copy again, that is. :oops:

Ok well obviously both of these games suck it hard.  It's all about who has more affection for which turd- not counting the truly sane ones who disregard both- or the true maniacs (they're out there!) who actually really dig both of these coiling turds.  It's funny- I do have affection for Talespin- but when I start thinking about that underwater level and how Nat played that level first and how long it's taken for him to play it for the first time especially after hearing all this affection for it- I start thinking maaaaan that must have been one sucky experience.  =P~   :lol:

Yeah my first message in this thread pretty much sums up my feelings on that.

I got that boxed Darkwing Duck but I haven't had a chance to play it. When I do, I'll pull out good ol' TaleSpin and compare them.

Ghost Manor is still beckoning as well! Woohoo!
