Been scraping the chains and just focusing on not dying for now. Bombs all over the place and it seems to be working for now. Until I get the patterns down Ima need dem Bs.

Built a MAME cabinet for our break room at work. Had funding from the company and everything, it's a pretty nice setup to get busy with during lunch or breaks. Hard to keep people working though Lots of shmups on it and this one is easily one of the best - I've had a thing for Fever SOS, Esp.Galuda ...

Big heads makes me think Kid Chameleon?

I just don't see how you could sleep at night without fulfilling Ryu Hayabusa's bloodlust for demons. I voted Ninja Gaiden (NES)

I really liked Light Crusader. I was big on RPGs and I loved my Genesis so I tried most of them even if they sucked. But my faves were the usual Phantasy Star and Shining Force, then Landstalker and Light Crusader after them. LC was pretty weird though. I mean, the music is pretty mellow and dark ev...
