Great video thanks for putting it together.  Are there any other games that utilize the Arcade Card in this way?  Is 3X3 Eyes a good game?  Those intros are pretty kick ass.  :)

No game is enhanced as much as 3x3 Eyes is.

Yeah, that video was great. I haven't played any of those comic type games so I have no idea what the actual gameplay is like - I have my guesses but...

The intro is awesome though.

Unfortunately, the game was pretty much all stills for as long as I played it. Very nice art though.

From the little I played, there were a couple of nice animated sequences during the game (like a baseball part and part with a cockroach or something crawling out of the dude's head). But yeah, mostly just still screens. I might play through it soon.

So there aren't any action scenes that used the Konami Justifier or the Sega Sports Pad?

Ask Runin about that, he's the only person I know that has played through it :P . He has mentioned something about a tricky maze in the game or something.

I really want to get a Sega Sports Pad one day! Did any cool games actually use it though?

3x3 Eyes is a cool comic.  Here's my review of it.

Awesome review, I must had missed this one.  I just picked up a copy from eBay for $7 so now I'm even more excited to play through it.   :dance:

Nice review runin.  :) I'm not sure if I'll like the digital comic thing or not, but this game will definitely be a purchase - especially if you can get it for $7 smackaroonies.

I finished the 3 x 3 Eyes ACD/SCD video.

It shows the spitscreen comparison, then cinema 1 ACD, cinema 1 SCD, cinema 2 ACD, cinema 2 SCD.

The fullscreen cinemas are unedited once they begin and show the difference in load times.


I cannot view the comparision since Windows Media Player is having some difficulty connecting to the Internet at the moment. Boo :(.

I may be asking much for this, but do you think you could put this up on YouTube so that I may be able to see it? From the responses from the other users, it sound like yet another one of your great works and is worth seeing. I would greatly appreciate it, SuperPCEngineGrafx.

Download divx and play it through that. Avoid WMP at all cost. The video quality sucks on WMP, along with countless other issues. VLC is also a really good player.

Thanks, but I'm just fine with Windows Media Player. I don't wish to fill my hard drive with any more programs since I want plenty of room on it for the videos that I make. I'm sure, in time, this problem will be resolved.

I highly recommend installing VLC sometime, Kirby. It comes loaded with practically every video codec so you can easily watch any video you see. I don't think it's that large either, certainly smaller than WMP.

What kind of computer do you have? Divx is like 5MB or something. Thats like one millionth of your average modern hard drive.

I'm all for standards. I hate it when people post shit in ogg format or something, but Divx pretty much is the standard for %99 of what I play. If you download the codec WMP will play it seamlessly...well, I shouldn't say that since its probably giving MS too much credit. Its supposed to work that way though, and usually does. It does the same thing for Quicktime if one is running OSX.

He could put it on Youtube, and probably should, but Youtube will really screw up the quality of the video which is kind of too heavily matted anyway (IMHO).

BTW, do you also use Internet Explorer? Statistically most of the people online do, and I'm trying to find out who these people are because I know almost none of them.

And...do you drive a Ford, Chrysler or GM product that isn't a work truck or a sports car?

I have all these ideas for non-fiction books yet I never end up writing them...
