What Turbo game are you currently playing?

Chrome?

The only PC engine rom hack (not counting translations)

Adds the meat cleaver from the arcade and switches around some stuff. I've never played it though

Oh, yes, I remember a small discussion on this (Bonknuts suggested that the hack simply uses existing assets--sprite animations--and doesn't introduce any new frames of animation). STILL, it sounds very interesting. I will have to check it out one of these... years...

Played through Dracula X and The Adams Family in honor of Halloween.

turbobs: Genji Tsushin Agedama

Non-turbobs: Beat Thunder Force III and D&D Tower of Doom. Dug out an IA-100 processor and I've been playing a lot of Strikers 1945 II and DoDonPachi in Tate mode without having to put a tv on its side. It is glorious. Strikers 1945 2nd loop is NUTS.

I keep trying to play Break-In, because I kind of like pool games. I keep turning it off pretty fast.

I had a similar experience with this game.

Haven't played any TG16/PCE in a while but today my friend was over and we played a game of Monster Lair. It was cool playing as the alternate character and seeing all of the additional powerups that appear for her without just starting the game in 2 player mode and letting the first player die off in the first level. The added items you can only get by jumping off of the head of the other player and the fact that you need to cooperate for that and to make sure neither life bar runs out also definitely added to the fun. When it started up they commented on how sharp the image looked and it was nice to see someone else appreciate the S-Video mod, especially since the last time we played on the Duo was before I had the mod done.

Always loved the co-op

I've started Valis 3 for the first time. I'm enjoying it, even though it can be a bit frustrating at times. For example, the sliding is kind of awkward, especially when you're supposed to slide between platforms. Bosses are super easy so far. Overall I'm enjoying it, and I like the story and cutscenes. Voice acting is charmingly bad as always.

Thankfully, the sliding is *extremely generous*, and you don't have to be pixel perfect to complete most slides. The standing-->sliding animation is a little wonky, allowing apparently "impossible" maneuvers.



I consider this an epic TG-16 experience. Sure, some levels are average/uninspired, but overall, a really fun game.

I keep finding myself going back to Zonk.

Never played co-op in this game, but that sounds awesome, so I need to give it a try.

I'm currently playing Download, which is another one of those great shooters that really define the PCE for me. Too bad that the game is kind of a cakewalk after you crack it, having some incredibly obvious safe spots in some of the "harder" sections. Having said that, the last boss is always challenging, although it might be because I haven't studied it as much as the rest of the game.

Love the PCE's idiosyncratic shooters, such as Lost Sunheart and this one!

I spent about 90 minutes playing Alien Crush yesterday.

An excellent choice.
