Despite disliking anime in general, I enjoyed Magic Knight Rayearth. It has a pretty cool last boss fight.

I never finished MKR, I thought it was kinda dated by the time it came out here. I should go back to it though. Same thing with Albert Odyssey. The load times killed my desire to see the end of the game.

I'd gotten stuck at one point in Magic Knight Rayearth and gave up. I'm hoping to one day play the game again, to see what clue I'd missed before.

Albert Odyssey upset me so many times, because it would constantly lock up during battle loads. I'd tried to go back and play it a couple of months ago and had no clue where I'd left off. I don't know if I have the heart to endure going through the game, as far as I did, to get back to where I'd quit.

I played through Albert Odyssey with a game shark. You would level up crazy amounts after each battle. I don't think I could have handled playing it the right way. The loads in and out of battle were just too long.

No kidding, and WD supposedly IMPROVED the loading times too. I don't see how anyone can play through a random battle RPG with 10-15 seconds of load time. Even improved it still suck.

I stumbled upon this launch Sega Saturn commercial today. :lol:

I'd seen still shots of this commercial, but I'd never seen it in action.

I'm kind of motivated to grab Gale Racer now to see if it's as good as those others; really the Ridge Racer games are the only arcade racers I can think of from the same era that can hang with those games.

Yeah, it was the last Hang On game. Gale Racer is a port of the 1990 arcade game Rad Mobile so it's more old-school than most Saturn racers. It's still cool, though.

Was any one looking for Dragon Force? I believe I still have a second copy of the game.

I love Rad Mobile. The Sonic thing dangling in front of you was a nice touch.
