My worthwhile thoughts on a few PCE games

[Turbo D]

the sound in that game makes me laugh, it sounds like it was done by camerika or codemasters or whatever its called.

What you're hearing is the familiar arpeggio sound common in European chip music.  Impossamole's music was arranged by Barry Leitch, who was well-known in the C-64 world.  I don't think this game's music is that great, but a TON of the Euro stuff is fantastic on the C-64.

[Turbo D]

wow, cool. Now that I think about it, I only hear sound like that in europeon games, haha.

Youkai Douchuuki is a game that has really stuck to me ever since the first time I played it. I don't even play it much, but the atmosphere of the game is extremely enjoyable to me and I absolutely love the song in the first level. Also the spiritual boss fights are way cool!

Impossamole sucks, JJ & Jeff doesn't!

Completely agreed.

I know I'm repeating myself, but every time I see this, I cannot help but remind you that the title song is FRIGGIN' AWESOME.  It is the highlight of the game.

Completely agreed to the max!

Although I've never played it seriously, I've always liked Youkai Dochuki.

It seems pretty faithful to the arcade version too.

Completely agreed to the max!

What would agreeing to the minimum be like?

[Turbo D]

Maybe it would only be 80% agreed

Q: What would agreeing to the minimum be like?
A: You know, guys, even though I'm usually not a fan of music that sounds like the tunes in Impossamole, I have to admit that the title song is decent. Oh yeah, I'd also like to add that JJ & Jeff is a decent game.

Correct! However it should end like "Oh yeah, I'd also like to add that JJ & Jeff is the friggin' best game ever created."

[esteban]

hahahahhahaha. Poor nat! Little did he know that the proponents of JJ & Jeff would join forces against him .

Come on Keranu, at least be reasonable and say something like "the friggin' best platformer ever created."

[Keranu]

Ok you're right, I guess it's not better than Insector X.

[nat]

hahahahhahaha. Poor nat! Little did he know that the proponents of JJ & Jeff would join forces against him .

I feel so.... alone.

nat, embrace the wonderful world of J.J. and Jeff with us and you will never be lonely again.

Keranu, I have a plan. It is a compromise, and I think nat might be interested. Basically, Keranu and I will try to open our hearts to a game that we're not particularly fond of (or, alternatively, to a game that we think is over-rated).

nat, I'm sure there is some turbo game that you dig that I (we) think is rubbish OR is over-rated. Name it and I (we) will find some aspect of it that I (we) can "appreciate" on some level.

Ahhh, I don't know if this plan of mine is any good. It's a pretty lame plan, since Keranu and I already love games that others consider rubbish. Damn it!
