I have a PC Engine. Now what?

Man, PM PaCrappa and he'll definitely tell you what is the jam on the PCE.

Make sure to check out Carlson Stevens' (16-bit on TNL) excellent eBay store:

Pomping World (Buster Bros.) is an inexpensive PCE game. Of course, BB is awesome and needs no description.

PHOTOGRAPH BOY.

PHO - TO - GRAPH - BOY

... although getting an original PCE copy of the game will probably run a hell of a lot more than picking up a copy of the PSX port.

Other good stuff:

- Valkyrie no Densetsu (kinda dwarfed by PSX Namco Classics Vol. 5 and arcade emulation)
- Shockman (shut up, I like it)
- Super Star Soldier
- Magical Chase (goes for stupid amounts of money. just emulate)
- Don Doko Don
- Parasol Stars

i've seen a page or two of these before, but.. o. m. g.
best link ever.

- Shockman (shut up, I like it)

I have the US version, I got it for free, and I have to say that I do enjoy it. It's funny, I remember reading a horrible review about it in Gamepro years before I played it, but... I think it's fun. I heard it's part of a much bigger series, but I know nothing of the others.

Bloody Wolf's a good one, kind of like Commando (well, a lot like Commando, but who cares?), but with really nice graphics for an 'engine game. Shu bi bin Man 2 is pretty cool as well, though not nearly as cool as 3 (but that's on cd, I'm afraid). How about Bravoman? It's a slightly clumsy Namco platformer that's still quite fun and really amusing (just check out the villian's hair). As has been said ad nauseaum, the cd was really where it's at, but there's still some cool stuff on Hucard to dig up (besides, it's the coolest storage media ever).

So I picked up a PCE on eBay a few months back, and I've been enjoying the few games I have. It came with both parts of R-Type and Side Arms, which are both excellent. I also bought Sonson 2 from Wilykat, and it's also a lot of fun. But I need to know... what are the games I need to be playing? I'm not looking to drop a ton of cash right now, and I can't play any CD games at the moment, but I am looking to increase the size of my library for this thing.

For the record, I do have a few more games for my TG16 than I do for my PCE... Dragon Spirit, Shockman, Splatterhouse, Dragon's Curse, and the second Bonk game.

Recommend away!

mandatory titles to be played:

air zonk
bonk2
jj + jeff
splatterhouse
vigilante
and if you can find it, the turbografx remake of ninja gaiden

US hucards will not run on a PCE.

Get Soldier Blade, great shooter.

I second this.

Holy Fucking Shit.
I'd seen those comics before, yet I had never noticed the artist signature.
I'm sure most of the comic geeks here know who Neal Adams is. For those who don't he was only one of the greatest artists of all times (great Batman and Green Lantern/Arrow stuff).
How far the great have fallen.
My god. (as said by the great voice actor of House of the Dead 2)
