It's a Super Scope game that not many know about, and it's good.
That it is. I haven't gotten to play it in years, but I had a blast with it back in the day.

In fact, I may go track it down. It's pretty cheap on eBay.

Finally opened my copy of Devil May Cry HD Collection. I'm playing through DMC 2 right now (played through the original twice on PS2). For years, I've heard that this is the crappy one and during that time I though: "How bad can it be? It's Devil May Cry." Now I see why everyone hates it. I'm not sure if I'd say it sucks, it's just boring.

Did you find it hard, or are you having problems like I am, due to the mechanics? The inability to control the camera and the odd angles it uses makes it superficially harder to me. For example, the battle on the bridge with the samurai riding the horse. I'm stuck looking at one of the doors half the time, how the hell am I supposed to pay attention to the enemies?

The fact that this exists pleases me greatly:

And I wish this had been released in the US:

I never bothered, either, until Valve gave it away shortly before the sequel. I enjoyed it and feel it deserves all the hype it received back in whatever year that was. It played great on my 2004 computer hardware! It is also literally the only game I own on Steam.

Sonic & Garfield? Since when did Sega get a license to make Garfield games? But talk about your polar opposites. If you put Garfield in any of Sonic's games, just getting him to MOVE would be a big task. That's why when I see Garfield in a video game, it ends up like this.

Alien 3 and Predator 2 were released separately here, correct? I remember P-2 having some really interesting music.

Finished Devil May Cry 2 a while ago. I'm taking back what I said about the game not sucking. Holy shit, the game just got worse and worse. The camera angles alone made me want to quit playing the game and the music was so boring I put some Death Metal albums on a flash drive so I could listen to those. Worst of all, the game was still a boring drudge. I also played the first mission of Lucia's campaign. I ain't doin' that shit; next game!

Let's go old school for a moment, back to a time when not everyone had a smart phone/cell phone. Ok now in that mind set....how did you keep track of your collections? I ask because when i'm out and about at pawn shops...I'll stumble across a cart and wonder if I have that game...I know you can do it easily on a phone but I don't have a cell phone/smart phone. I also know I could just make a list and print it out but I don't want to carry around a bunch of papers.

I was thinking that maybe a little journal or something that I could slip into my backpack would work if nothing else. But i'm hoping someone might have a better idea lol.

Although I couldn't name every game in my collection if you asked me to, I'm definitely capable of remembering if I own a game or not if I spot it in a shop. I never used a list back then, and still dont.
