R.I.P. Mr. Missy, my feline comrade. Godspeed.

Never played this game, probably never will, but the video is nice!

Aww, c'mon!  The cheese is at least worth a peek!

[Michirin9801]

Aww, c'mon!  The cheese is at least worth a peek!

Umm, maybe? >w>

[Digi.k]

Man I thought you was going to parade around with the virtual cushion there!

Dem cloudy skies look like London skies!

i think it was my first cd game 100 years ago. You should definitely give it a shot.

You know I am genuinely obsessed with the stupid Virtual Cushion. So sad.



...and that stretch of polluted NJ skyline (from the video) is the reason everyone thinks my beautiful state is a radioactive dump. Because.... that stretch *really is* a post-industrial wasteland.

Thankfully, the entire state is not like that...but 99.99% of folks get their first impression of NJ based on the worst bits.

Ha!

Good lulz and I love the smiley ants.  Thanks, esty!

Yeah, it was funny because I simply asked both kids to draw ants and I didn't realize my son was all about the smiley faces.

My daughter, by the way, keeps asking if ants can really be monsters. This silly video may have created a life-long phobia of ants.

Damn.

Aww, c'mon!  The cheese is at least worth a peek!

Umm, maybe? >w>

If you are really, really patient and forgiving, you can actually appreciate many aspects of the game...but the "platforming" sequences are horrid (repetitive, poor control).

On one of the pages I linked to, I praised the seemingly minor role of the "Radio DJ" as important "glue" that improved the overall experience. I love little things like that.—it shows the effort that went into this project.

Your mileage may vary...I'm a sucker for the "radio DJ" of yesteryear.
