Game Sack

[EvilEvoIX]

I am really surprised that they didn't do Devils or Alien Crush.  Two of my favorites and I thought would at least get a mention.

They mentioned them and why they didn't review them.

Did you watch the video?

Musta missed it.


I just watched it again and yeah they mentioned it at the very end stating that they already covered it.

So many familiar faces.

Game music sack was indeed very interesting, especially the LoT to Rainbow connection.

I think it would be cool if when playing the original, "plagiarized" song, instead of just showing the album cover, you split the screen to also show gameplay footage. I think it would be interesting to see the game in action against the song that its music used as inspiration.

Love Game Sack!

I had to go put on Richie Blackmore's Rainbow.

So good.

If there's an "SNES Shumps 2", does this mean they've covered them all now?

lol, D Force was awful.  I think I only played it on one occasion when I rented it as a kid.  I remember staying at high elevation whenever possible because if I went low then went back up I kept running into enemies that were off screen.

From looking at Joe's Game Sack episode guide, I think Macross Scrambled Valkyrie is still missing.

Not quite, still haven't covered Macross nor Steel Talons though I would hardly call Steel Talons a traditional shump..

If anyone is wondering, Darius Twin, Bio Metal, Imperium, and Sonic Wings (Aerofighters) are better than the faint praise Joe reluctantly gave them.

Gotta keep up the SNES narrative, I guess.

His final thoughts on Darius Twin and Sonic Wings didn't really match what he said about the game, which I thought was spot on. Still, conclusions aside, Sonic Wings is much better than he said it was, Darius Twin just better, but Bio Metal was accurate. I never played Imperium.

I owned Darius Twin when it came out BITD - I thought it was only average. It was cool that it didn't seem to slow down, but there were much better shmups on the SNES. It was difficult to get excited about that game. I agree about the first stage music, though.
