That's fine w/ me if it feels like there's enough want for BB.dsheinem wrote:I'd like a Bubble Bobble vs Game and Watch poll.
I've heard no compelling reason why DE would be a better TR title other than "Half-Life didn't really do it for me." But like I mentioned earlier, Half-Life has more ports, seems to have more historical impact on the genre, has a TON of community mods (@Exed: as a DC fan you should be excited to look into Counter Strike, They Hunger, etc). Also it was stated earlier from a website perspective that Dave may have access to getting a HL-related guest on the RB podcast that month.And it sounds like we need a HL vs DE poll too.
Some of them I may have misunderstood I guess. Any time anyone mentioned something was a good idea or that they had a preference for it over another option, I counted it. I tried to avoid counting people twice, but it wasn't an exact art or anything, so i could also have accidently counted twice.dsheinem wrote:I'd like a Bubble Bobble vs Game and Watch poll.

I am not sure I understand entirely how you are arriving at your numbers either, AJ...
for now -- right here. Are you mad as hell at G&W? Then don't take it anymore! Make a stand against G&W. Tell us how boring a month that would be!retrosportsgamer wrote:Agree with Dsh, if there is some place I can vote against Game & Watch, that'd be great.
I generally do'nt like to do a lot of double-bills. The October thing has kind of been a tradition now, as it's a fun way to work in two games from any genre really -- and I admit, is jus sort of a hokey b-movie reference...AJ's doing a great job but want to clarify (and confirm) for the group - we are combining racing and sports into one month again this year, correct? Is there any energy around maybe doing a double bill for that month with one racing game and one sports game?
I imagine more people have played Final Fight than the TMNT brawlers. Not to mention, I feel that Turtles in Time is superior to Final Fight all around anyway.noiseredux wrote:^we should just replace G&w with Virtua Tennis because fuck G&W.
Also, just for the sake of discussion -- what about Final Fight as a beat-em-up? Obviously I'm a huge TMNT fan so will be thrilled if it's that... though I've spent a lot more time playing Turtles In Time than Final Fight. And it could be argued that Final Fight is a more "important" title. I guess I'm curious if y'all have really spent a lot of time playing FF, as a big part of TR is discovering games you really haven't played much of already.
That's the part I'm trying to figure out. Personally I played tons of TMNT when I was younger, but didn't play Final Fight until I was in my 20's I'd guess. (I was a Streets of Rage dude growing up).AppleQueso wrote: I imagine more people have played Final Fight than the TMNT brawlers.
This I cannot argue with. At all. But if we've all played Turtles and know it well then it would be more interesting to play a game that (A) influenced the genre prior to Turtles and (B) some of us have less or no experience with.Not to mention, I feel that Turtles in Time is superior to Final Fight all around anyway.
