Doctor Fugue recommends a daily dose of ZUN for several common ailments, such as: too much free time, low scores and itchy trigger fingers.

Warning: side affects include sudden loss of vision, uncontrollable grazing, and an unhealthy attraction to underage spirit maids.

Please consult Doctor Fugue before attempting Lunatic Mode. :D

Rez HD. Borderline choice, but all the other ones I would mention have been listed.

Man, another great year for retro fun. I love this!

Is this remakes and updates of older games, or just games with a retro aesthetic?

Ah. Then I'd put in for one of Strong Bad's Cool Games for Attractive People, then, since they've got a lovely oldschool point-and-click adventure thing going for them.

Oh yeah, it released yesterday so I doubt anybody's played it yet, but what about Legend of Wukong? That definitely fits the category.

Yeah...i want to pick it up, but alas the price tag will force me to wait. Played the chinese original ROM, and that was decent in it's own right (and confusing). From what they say about the improvements I'm guessing it'll be a solid title. I was hoping for Pier Solar, but that may be a while...or never.

Yeah, I suppose I should start looking into Pier Solar...

Anybody know of any other groups doing similar projects?
