/vr/ - Retro Games

>mfw the game goes from being cabal shooter to being a side-scrolling shooter with shit controls
Who at Treasure thought this was a good idea?

>>2116290
thank god it doesn't last much

>>2116290

Get good

>>2116290

its literally for one stage

Always wanted to play this. How similar is it to starfox?

Can I pick my path through choices or how I play the previous level?

>>2116695
Linear progression, not sure about playing levels completed previously.

keep your cancer on /vg/, thanks

You will probably like it if you like Starfox since it's an on-rail shooter, but it's a completely different monster. On Sin and Punishment it feels more like a mix of rail shooter and action game, you can use melee attacks and as already mentioned, the game even changes perspective and becomes a side-scroller later on, while still maintaining the gameplay.

It has no alternate routes, but it has a hard mode and an unlockable turbo/frameskip mode that makes the game faster and without slowdowns, thus making it a lot more harder than usual.

NInja Spirit is cuhrazy as fuck, give it a try.

>>2116695
Ehh, let me say this much. If you like SF64, you should play Sin and Punishment.

DMC and God Hand before they ever existed.

>>2117062
Mah nigga. One of the games that convinced me to get a PC Engine / TG-16. Only game that perfectly balances making you feel OP as fuck while still providing a challenge.

Best ninjer movie ever made, right here.

The ship is even called Dante

Kid Icarus NES goes from being a vertical sidescroller with wrap around the edge warp, to maze like dungeon levels, to being a horizantal sidescroller, and the last level is a shoot em up.
Its difficulty level is also backwards, most people cant beat the first 3 levels, and the game gets easier as you get upgrades. The first level is the hardest one.

Don't know if I would call it cuhrayzee, but it is one of my favorite games.

alien soldier too

I'm surprised not that many people talk about Kid Icarus considering it's a pretty awesome action side-scroller. I also think the initial difficult barrier puts a lot of people off. Once you start getting more health bar and upgrade your arrows, the game becomes easier, you're right about the first levels being the hardest.

And I dunno if it's 'chrazey' but the new 3DS Kid Icarus Uprising seems to be similar to Sin and Punishment, I really want to play it.

but yeah, Kid Icarus needs more love.

jumping flash 2: big trouble in little muu, plus it has some groovy music to top it off:

I only really played the GB game, Of Myths and Monsters. It froze instantly after defeating the final boss, which was a little frustrating.

What in the world does "cuhrazee" mean?

>>2117058
That fight blew me away first time I played.

Also the graphics are top tier, you could fool me into thinking it was a Dreamcast game with some screenshots.

>>2120585

This is my favorite 1st person perspective game ever. Doom can go suck it (I hope the doom general guys don't notice this post).
There's also Ghost in the Shell on the PS1 from the same developers which is also pretty crazy.

>>2120657
Never played the Gameboy one yet.

>>2120686

It means INSANE.

>>2120796
Yeah, it has really good animations and lighting effects, and it doesn't use the expansion pak.
It's also impressive how fast it can get, unlocking the frameskip mode to remove the slowdown is incredible, I think the game goes at locked 60fps.

>>2121339
ooh didnt know it was from the same guys, neat, i always liked these two games

time killers

chop fucking heads and limbs off each other. used to play this as a kid and laugh my ass off.

>>2120686
it is used for modern stylish hack and slash/beat em up/fast paced action games like Devil May Cry or Bayonetta.

>>2120585
God dammit I want a modern release of this so badly. Think of the crazy jumps and vistas that modern technology could afford us.

>>2116695
I got into S&P because I loved SF64.

I liked the original, but I consider the sequel on Wii to be far superior, though people disagree.

>>2123464

Yeah, but Sony prefers to give us Knack instead.

>>2123474

Star Successor is amazing. I think some people complain about it being "too long", since on-rail shooters are typically made to be beaten in 1 hour. S&P2 is 3 or 4 times longer than the first.
I love both, I might like the first a little bit more, maybe because I played it first, but SS was certainly a worthy successor.

does astro boy omega factor count?

>>2126294

Yeah but it's not /vr/ since it's on the GBA.

Alien Soldier, Gunstar Heroes and Mischief Makers all seem like viable "cuhrazey" 2D games though, anything made by Treasure is usually filled with over the top action.

>>2117145
Got it for PSP but haven't started yet. How much of cuhrazy am I in for?

>>2118749
this is actually the most comfy shooter i ever played. given that the stages feel more like puzzles and mazes rather than a regular shooter game

>>2127279
if i remember it right, it's all about being the most ULTRASEX samurai cowboy ken-sama evah!

sup

>>2126328
Alien Soldier is amazing. I used to think it was just brokenly hard, but once you learn how to play it its fucking incredible. Best Mega Drive game

>>2126328
Silhouette Mirage moreso than Mischief Makers imo. And Bangai-O.

Treasure's amazing

good man

>>2118925
treasure IS CUHRAZEE
Alien Soldier is probably their best example of it though.

>GITS PS1
I fucking love this game so much. I've gotten way too used to left/right strafe though, takes me a bit to get used to left/right rotating again.

also, I kept fucking up at the bit where you have to get to the bombs and it drives me nuts.

>>2123962
I love S&P2 to death, but they really, really, REALLY needed to trim some bits. It made me more than glad to own a Wii though.

>>2121339
DOOM GENERAL REPRESENT HERE
FUCK U

>>2120425
Uprising is pretty crazy on the highest difficulty. I could barely beat the first stage
