Does this game suck as bad as the first 30 seconds let on?

This game doesn't do it for me neither. I just can't get into it. This visual is nice and the music is somewhat catchy but I'll take SSS, BL, soldier blade, gate, lords, sapphire, ray, aero blaster, air zonk, spriggan and a slew of others shooter over this any day.

As long as Deep Blue isn't hiding somewhere in that list.

I think MC is the spiritual sequel to ordyne

As a matter of fact, I highly dislike any game which you are required to hold a button down that you normally have to press repeatedly.  I don't know why, but it pisses me off.

MC and Cotton both bite ass! Falcon and Gunboat FTW!

Hahaha, you can rest assure it isn't. I never played that nor do I want to.

I just don't like any shooters where you can stop in shop to buy power ups during the stages.

Cool! Someone else that hates R-Type.

I concur with this. Aside from Lords, the others I have played where you need to buy power ups seem to ruin the experience a bit.

I rather enjoy Magical Chase, even though there are plenty of other shooters out there I would prefer. The graphics are cute and colorful, the music is infectiously addictive for me personally, and overall it's just a pleasant little diversion to partake in.   

On the issue of shopping for power-ups while progressing through a stage, it doesn't bother me as long as it's implemented correctly. Magical Chase pulls it off fairly well IMO. If you think you're well enough equipped for the stage, you can bypass the shop and continue on through the level.

It also pulls off some of the nicest parallax scrollings done in the whole pce library.

I played this at Sparky's place and it wasn't so bad.  Almost too 'cutsie' but not bad in my eyes.

I like it. cute, colorful and a quick getaway from Gates whipping my ass

BTW: this screen shot was aparently taken in stretched mode proving that you don't even have the knowledge to properly operate a television let alone critique a video game, ass.

lol

your not realy giving it chance with 30 seconds of play, there meany games out there that after playing the first 30 seconds make you think f*ck yea i love this game.

Magical Chase is very enjoyable with some impressive graphics and music for a turbo chip. I think the price of the game has twisted peoples perspective and created knee jerk reactions like this. My only complaints about the game are its relatively short length (it could use one more level) and easy difficulty (I've beaten it on the hardest setting without much practice).

I also enjoy games like Forgotten Worlds and Lords of Thunder where you collect currency to upgrade various things. It gives the game a little more depth and customization.

Nah.  First time I played it was with an emulator in like 2001, before I knew how much any of the stuff cost, and just wanted to try games out before I went and attempted to locate them in the wild. 

I just thought it was lame compared to some of the other games I played.

Chuka Taisen is where it's at.
