Balrog0 02/17/20 7:37:05 PM #1:	Classic: Cadillacs and Dinosaurs holds up better than most imo. The end is a slog, but it keeps it moving until that point. Bucky O'Hare is kind of a weird run n gun that plays a lot more like a beat em up. The gameplay is strictly okay but the graphics are great, especially cutscenes, and there's surprisingly good voices for the time. Violent Storm: Yuge sprites, cuts a very quick pace, does the stereotypical Urban gangs thing but with a bit of a twist. Modern: I like Full Metal Furies a lot. There are 4 different classes that all play really differently, two melee and two ranged. I like the art work, but I can see some disagreeing. What really kills it is the awful, awful writing. Seriously, skip it all. Apparently like half of the game is hidden behind a puzzle treasure hunt thing but I haven't done that yet. That's the only one that's left an impression. I tried coffee crisis but it got old after like three levels --- But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. <cite>Balrog0 posted [p:934520393] in Favorite b...
