Game types you wish had more types on the PCFX
« on: August 21, 2011, 03:38:50 PM »
This isn't a what game shouldve been on PCFX, its a what genre.

I wish there were more Boundary Gate style games.

Wizardry or Might and Magic would have been great.

LaserDisc arcade game ports.  TimeGal, Road Blaster, Ninja Hayate, Triad Stone.  They all got ported Saturn, PS1,
but no FX versions.  They would have been a perfect use of the FX's FMV tech, still amazed it never happened..

Games in genres which don't require so many words!

Action games. ANY action games. As far as I'm concerned, the PC-FX only has three real action games - Zenki, Zeroigar, and CCK.

It would've been nice to see a real side-scrolling platformer. Maybe they wanted to distance themselves from Bonk, but you'd think they would've encouraged a Valis game, or even a clone. It would have fit the system's image perfectly.

More action games in general, but shmups and platformers would've been preferred. A traditional fighter would've been nice, since all we got were the FMV ones and the unlockable mini-game in a dating sim. More adventure games would've been welcome, either side-scrolling like Last Imperial Prince or overhead a la Zelda.

The only platformer I can think of is Ruruli Ra Rura and it sucks for the most part.  It reminds me of CD-i platformer garbage. Its ok, kind of.

Platformers- PC Gengin FX
Shewties- Air Zonk 3, Lords 2
Laseractive titles- Time Gal, Dragon's Lair
Fighters- Street Fighter Alpha, Kof- Nice 6 button controller, coulda been used for something.
Sidescrolling action- Run n' Guns, sword and whip games etc etc.

but yea, anything requiring less dialog would have been nice!

It needed Puzzle games too

Puzzle Bobble and magical drop would've been solid.

Platformers, shooties, and puzzlers - you can't have too many of 'em.

Totally agreed....amd with a built in english translation!  :)  The RPG/Adventure game genre is seriously lacking in the PC-FX line-up.
