This Month's Haul: November 2012

[Korly]

Bought the Indie Game: The Movie Blu Ray for 50% off thanks to their BF sale. Total was $22 w/ shipping, which is still a bit high, but worth it to have a physical copy of the movie.

Isn't there a directors cut on the way?

and I used some Gamestop rewards points for this:

Hero: Can't believe there's hate on Epic Mickey 2, the first looks awesome. I should have jumped on that one day one.

Also, NGE, you're truly going to sell the WiiU Deluxe after going through all that trouble to pick one up?

Roadblasters is fucking awesome. If you've got a Nomad or clone portable, it's even better.

I used to love playing roadblasters in the arcade and on the lynx. I thought the genesis version looked horrible when i got it. Does it play that well? I never gave it a chance beyond that first glimpse.

It plays well but goes a bit faster than the arcade, though that may be my memory faltering. It looks spectacular in s-video too!

I have a WiiU?

I haven't played the arcade version since I was a kid, and I've never played the Lynx version either. Even if it's a bad port, it's pretty awesome.

Just make sure you push B to go into option mode and change the controls to type B, otherwise the game automatically tries to go max speed all the time if you aren't hitting the brakes.

The Sega version actually looks pretty decent. I don't know why I remember it being so awful. It's really not. I think the Lynx version is better though!
The only ones I would stay away from are the Spectrum and NES (now that's ugly!).

Sorry, I meant Brand X.
