I'm sure it's emulation. I'm also disappointed with Dotemu's Raiden Legacy, runs like hot garbage.

I started playing Battle Circuit with the idea of beating it in one credit but I don't think I'll be able to because I can't do quartercircles, circles or quick back and forth motions on a gamepad. The GCW Zero doesn't have the best buttons in the world either, which makes it even more difficult for me.

Sigh :(

huh apparently there's a new mod for Alien Isolation that will make the Xeno stop hunting you. He'll still be around, but he's not actively looking for you. Maybe I'll get back into it now that I can play it without feeling like I'm gonna have a panic attack.

There is a train though, so be careful.

Not getting Battle Circuit in this country is a travesty. We got all the other Capcom beat em ups!

Noise, you are being weak! Embrace the panic! Embrace the pain train!

I always found it kinda weird that Ys, Sorcerian, The Tower of Druaga, Grandia, Shin Megami Tensei, and Uncharted Waters all ended up with MMORPG spin-offs. How high was the demand for this sort of thing? Were they all piggybacking off of Final Fantasy XI's success? I assume most of these are offline.

Speaking of Tower of Druaga, I just found out there's a Game Boy Color spin-off called Seme COM Dungeon: Drururuaga. Just rolls right off the tongue.

I thought the point was to hide in lockers and getting eaten anyway.
