Just emulating isn't enough when you are selling game compilations. There has to be an incentive to play the games like unlockables for getting a high score, detailed story about the game and how it was made. Otherwise you might as well just download an emulator and get almost the same expirience for none of the cost.8bit wrote:What about it didn't meet your expectations?arion wrote:I also got taito legends and i hate it for simply being an emulator.
Case in point Intellivision Lives is an awesome compilation. They went the distance to make it feel like a purchase with a 3d arcade to select games from, info on how the game came to be which in many cases is a interesting read, highscore challenges to unlock various things like ads and other minor extras.
Even the soundtrack manages to somewhat capture the 80's arcade feel.
Similarly the Sonic Gems Collection for the ps2 has huge ammount of artwork and extra games that can be unlocked.
So yeah simply emulating is not enough.
However i did not notice that the Taito Legends was made by Xplosiv a budget pc games publisher so if i hadn been so excited to see Raystorm and Elevator Action Returns i problaby would have skipped buying it.
