Terra Cresta II is another disappointment. Not sure if it's rare, but I know it's very expensive on ebay these days. The gameplay is stale and its soundtrack hardly kept me awake.

TCII isn't that bad. in fact it's a pretty good and solid shooter. but yes, it isn't that cheap.

Never played TCII, but I thought the first one sucked.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Waterworld for Virtual Boy is hard to get and almost unplayable its so awful.
.

I played this game at the convention I went to recently and I thought this game was pretty cool actually! I don't see how it is unplayable since I was able to control it just fine and I dug the old school gameplay with the virtual 3d enviroment :) . I had no idea this game is rare though, I wouldn't mind getting it if I had a Virtual Boy.

I've never played to arcade, but the Nes port is one my favs and one of those hidden gems thats worth tracking down.

I always loved the music on first stage, it sounded weird the first time I heard it all those years ago. Now I'm trying to track down a complete game for myself since love it so much.

I've only played the PCE port, are the other ones any better? I admit, I did like the weapon customizing though.

there is only a pce version of TCII. TC1 is arcade and FC/NES only.

Hmm, what game am I thinking of then? :o

I'll have to look through lists to see because I have played it on a emulator before a few times. I know it's a Japanese HuCard game.

That's got to be it Keranu. Armed F has the same concept as Terra Cresta, to attatch of parts to ship to increase firepower, because both games were created by Nichibutsu.  But Armed F on the PCE was not so great, really horrible IMO.

Aha! I figured it all out now :D ! The game I was thinking of on PCE was Terra Cresta II! You see, I thought there was a Terra Cresta on PCE and a Terra Cresta II on PCE CD, but I confused this with IMAGE FIGHT! There is the first Image Fight on PCE and Image Fight II on PCE CD, which I haven't played. Anyways after playing Terra Cresta II, that game is actually better than I thought! The weapon customizing is really neat and the music is great! After playing Image Fight on PCE again though, that game ain't so good :) . Don't know how I mixed these games up really, but I did. Also I remember the title name "Armed F" really well, but I always get it confused with a couple other PCE shooters; I seem to remember like that game though...

Knowing you, you probably liked it a lot - the rest of us think it's crap :)

I have Image Fight II at least i can see why it's shumps fans least favorite shooter.

If you thought, Rayxanber II was bad well i'll just say, Image Fight II is just as diffcult.

Still it was worth while to get for myself any ways.
