Sapphire is underrated.
« on: April 08, 2018, 11:56:58 PM »
Whenever a Sapphire discussion pops up, it always ends up being a discussion about....
1.. prerendered polys? lol
2.. too expensive!
3.. oh no boots!
4.. it doesn't play like my favorite, but completely unrelated shooter!
If you are one of these people,
SHUT THE f*ck UP!

SAPPHIRE IS GAMING TRANQUILITY 
1.  Price of a game has no connection to it's quality.
2.  The art-style is fantastic.
3.  The animation is fantastic.
4.  The gameplay is fun.  (Good games are fun.)
5.  The music was clearly performed by ninjas stabbing great white sharks with whammy bars.
6.  Sapphire herself is hot.  Way hotter then what anyone reading this will ever get to bone.
She is clearly the type of cop to hold her cuban cigar between her boobies as she sits on Bruce Campbell's face with a twinkle of pure domination in her eyes.

If you think Sapphire is overrated, then please go play more Radiant Faggotgun.
Good-bye.

The backgrounds and most of the sprites are pixelart.

I agree with everything but gameplay, which isn’t as good as other games I don’t bother to own. I bought it for the graphics, straight up, didn’t eventually get drawn into the gameplay. I’d much rather play Star Parodia.

This is the one game my Duo-R is having trouble playing and I tested out two different Acrcade Cards. It played once and then never again. I know my Duo-R is a rats nest from the seller I got it a few years ago on ebay. I hope to get the mod work cleaned up and then maybe I can play it again.

Deadite, it's been a while! I hope you are doing well but it seems you're triggered over a mere thread unrelated to you. Sorry Deadite, we all got different opinions. Sapphire isn't bad at all but I prefer other pc engine shooters. I literally do not care about price.

If you really want to get nasty with me, go back to your doujin X68k shooters. I may not be the oldest member on the board, or live in a tiny apartment in Japan, but I've been playing pce for a solid decade now. I know what games I like, what games I love, and what games I don't care about at this point.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, you get some unconventional opinions from all types of people. Some people prefer Dracula X snes over Rondo on pce. But everybody has their tastes.

Opinion is subjective.  I like Cyber Core loads and no-one else seems to rate it.

Sapphire is great, my only knock on it is it's annoying sound effects.  It's like a couple notches below Rayxamber III in "pew-pew" annoyingness.

Unless your opinion is Drac X > Rondo. Then you are not only wrong but destined for hellfire.

It's pretty good. I've played through it a couple times even.

I'll play with YOUR faggotgun....

But srsly I love Sapphire. One of my favorite games that I cherish since I got my hands on it from Kisakus forever ago. 1. Love the music, 2. Mika Akitaka arts! 3. yer mawm.

It's pretty amazeballs and lots of people never really have anything to say about it except that it's expensive. But it's more than just a pricey game. Sapphire is not my favorite shooter, but it's definitely in my top few.
