I think most shooter fans would agree.  As someone who only likes them somewhat, I admit it's a great game.  Just not perfect.  :)

Maybe that'll change in time!  Is it your favourite?

One of the only Turbo games I could get my gf to play with me was double dungeons since you don't need any fast reflexes for that. However, after getting through a few dungeons she started to fall asleep.

I fall asleep playing that one myself..  lol

2nd'ed

[talking about Sinistron]  I've never been a fan of shooters, but this was cool.

You let us all know going in your current stance on the genre. We can lead a horse to a shooter, but you can't make 'em a shmup fan.


Keep up the thread! Nice to have alternate view points on games.

Double D is a sleeper but at least the combat is FAST. Where is Nect to defend it?

#14.  SONIC SPIKE
Her: 2
Me: 3

We decided to play three random games, and I was pumped for the first two, and less excited for this one.  However, I have to admit... I was pleasantly surprised!  I didn't think a beach volleyball game could be fun, but it really was!  She struggled a bunch with the controls, but she gave it a "hi meh", as it's somewhat fun for her.  For me?  I'll definitely play this again.



Haha, more people need to experience multi-player Sonic Spike!!! 


Fun Fact:  If you win 100 consecutive matches, Sonic the Hedgehog actually makes a cameo in a game and gives you 500 rupees!! NO LIE!!

Multi-player Sonic Spike would be awesome, not going to lie.  :D

I really need a Turbo Tap.

That's pretty cool that your lady is willing to play all those games with you .. Ive had my girl try out some TG16 games also and so far she is only into Devil's Crush, New Adventure Island and BomberMan 94 .. You should have her try out some of the BomberMan games ..
Finally playing these games I couldn't get my hands on back in 91' !!! Nec fan always !!!

2.)  Every other game:
Her:  Doesn't give a shit.
Me:  Gets shit for playing.

Haha this is pretty much my gf's stance on my gaming addiction. The only games she likes is Bonk's Adventure and the Wonder Boy games. It's hard having a gf that looks down on something that is obviously important to you just because she doesn't like it. Oh well what can you do  :|

True however she's probably feeling the same way about how you feel about her shoe collection.   :lol:
All is well. :)
