/vr/ - Retro Games

part 1

(I'm on an alcohol & drug fueled binge, so forgive me for misspellings and such; otherwise, I'm really a great guy)

Sega Genesis version is the best and that's a fucking fact!

- It’s just so open in the gameplay and especially for a 90s cartridge game

- The Matrix missions & hacking are especially good; the graphics and gameplay are amazing here; you control it via first person and it’s like Johnny Mnemonic (that red-haired chick in the movie was hot too)

- You also stay at a hotel to improve stats if you have the points and can get into a fight and get thrown outside (sounds way cooler than it should be but excellent detail for a 90s cartridge game); I wouldn’t actually drink that ONIONS-Koffee shit in real life but you do in-game

- Hilarious real time fights both on the street and in the Matrix; ghouls just rush you in abandoned buildings and you gotta run and shoot with the lousy starter pistol; it’s gets better when you get better and can one shot kill or fire a steady SMG burst either suppressed or not; the Matrix offers you looking at the nodes and killer ICE in first person while slipping past them/permutating a passcode/fukn them up with your own deck

- Travel to other locations via orc driven taxi cab (it ain’t free unless you ally with them or something and I forget if that’s if you choose to join the Yakuza or their rival, the Mob)

- Cops (a.k.a. Lonestar) harass you just like real life and you CAN go shoot up their building in revenge; I had a friend do this and absolutely NO Lonestar harassed him for a period of over two hours of him playing after that (he was really proud of it)

- Buy guns, ammo, armor (like bullet-proof vests), grenades when you want; you got the cash and it’s yours although you gotta get the cash first (see JOBS)

- Get missions/JOBS from the various Mr. Johnson(s) found in the bars(?) of different locations while negotiating pay; you can also turn down jobs or just cancel them if they piss you off in-game
