Windows 95... Crashing a lot? surely you jest! :)
I am surprised nobody mentionned Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Genderbender by MicroProse.
I quite like the humor and it was a change of pace from Lucasarts games, mainly due to the fact that you can die, so you couldn't try every stupid thing on the oft chance it would work.
More Lucasarts-y in its execution, I also enjoyed Flight of the Amazon Queen. The cheesy plot and the tongue-in-cheek humor were actually quite fun.
I finished the Saturn version of Policenauts a couple of weeks ago and I must say this:
If you thought Snatcher was great, you haven't seen anything. Policenauts blows away Snatcher in every aspect.

It has become one of my favorite games of all time. We were definitely cheated out on the US version. Damn KoA!
Also:
Tony Redwood is one badass bad guy.
I remember when Gamefan lauded Policenauts as the second coming (Takuhi in particular I think). I was greatly saddened when I realized it was never coming over. Please don't bring back those memories. :(
I'm sorry, but you'll be seeing me mentioning Policenauts alot since it's really is that great of a game.Quote:

Right now, I'm trying to get ISO of the PC98 version just for the Snatcher-style talking heads.
The shooting range has the best secrets in the game. For example:
Remember those "flicking" scenes Shidoshi talked in his review. Well, you can actually grab Meryl's breasts if you get a high score.
Man, that was my whole point as to why I made my site! I've BEEN plugging this game to everyone out there and give it more exposure cause, in many respects, it IS even better than Snatcher, which by itself, is ALREADY a great game! I've also plugged the damn game in every Policenauts and Snatcher thread on here! I am the Policenauts king, dammit!! LOL. By the way, the Pc-98 version is also pretty damn good too. I'm gonna be puttin up pics of it soon too :)

stop it, both of you!
no more policenauts hype until there's an american release. or an english patch. or something.
Cool! Do you have the actual game or an ISO running on a PC98 emulator? Either it's cool. Be sure give me those face shots while you're at it (preferably in .GIF format).Quote:

BTW, had you ever managed to grab Meryl's breasts in the game?
BTW, here's Jonanthan face shot from the PC98 version. I took it from another forum.
Actually, I've been meaning to translate this game for awhile,, but there isn't a proper script dump yet. However, I am translating the character profiles from the official website.Quote:

I actually have the real copy of Policenauts for the PC-98, nice box and everything! LOL. It's still a great game so far. I like seeing all the little graphical differences. Still looks to me like a Sega CD/PC-E version of Policenauts...which is cool too :) I think I'm gonna add the trailer for it from my Private Collection to my site for now, so people can see the differences (I'm also gonna fix the 2 MPEGS I have of Snatcher and Policenauts that I have there already). Actually, Johnny, I did THAT one thing ONCE, and never could do it again! LOL.
EPMode...dammit, I WILL talk about it..over and over and over and over! ANd I CAN talk about it since I at least did a full walkthrough for the game on my site for people to enjoy it! LOL *Sigh* I love this game :)
The secret is getting a high score of over 550 in each one of the three Training Modes (circle targets, man targets, mini-circles) on Level 2 or 3.Quote:
