Day 31: Sim City
Volume 23

I love the design. It's both evocative and oddly appropriate, even if it isn't necessarily the best representation of the general gameplay (although using the disasters was fun)

ChronxDaHemphog posted...
Day 32: Iron Man / X-O Manowar in Heavy Metal
Volume 85

I don't even remember that game. Oo

Cool poster, but it's just got a comic feel

Day 33: Banjo-Kazooie
Volume 99

Functional and informative, albeit a little bland.

Cool. Ridiculous from the standpoint that it's clearly Vader's modified fighter and those ships are close enough to bump each other, but cool.

I remember being obsessed with this when it first came out. I was so exited to play it. Then I learned a week later that it doesnt have much replayability. Still fond memories though, i loved the black and white yoshies the most

I walked like 10km in ankle to knee deep snow for it, thinking it would basically be yoshi's island 2. that was disappointing...

Disappointingly basic. The Genesis game was pretty decent (even if the raptor campaign was waaaaay shorter and I was never able to beat Alan Grant's campaign -- I *think* the SNES version was probably the same). The GB game was so-so; unfortunately my copy was stolen (pretty sure it was among the stolen games) so I don't have it any more.

the SNES Jurassic park was a top-down adventure game with some clumsy first person sections. it was great (at least when I played it at the time) and has at least one great song.

Wow, so that's radically different. Oo Looks like it was because the versions had different devs, which is kinda weird from a licensing perspective... and it looks like there was also a NES game which formed the basis of the GB game. Kinda surprised.

Huh. Didn't remember there being a DS9 game on the SNES. And I'm also surprised that Playmates was apparently the publisher.

Alright poster. I always liked the look of the DS9 station. One of these days I'll have to re-watch the show, since I don't think I ever saw the full run.

I remember the SNES version being pretty bad and then the GB version -- which I still have -- was somehow even worse. Cool poster, though.

The problem was that they wanted a 2D beat-em-up, but unlike Batman Returns where they gave it to a company who knew how to make good beat-em-ups (Konami), they gave it to Acclaim, who thought using the Mortal Kombat 2/3 game engine would be a good idea.

I don't remember that so it wasn't Game Pro. There was a third gaming magazine that I can't remember the name of right now. Never had a subscription to it.

I think that was PSM.

PC Accelerator was also a magazine that basically was PC Gamer and Maxim combined, but it wasn't video game characters in swimsuits, just models. I have an issue of that one, mostly just kept it because it had an article declaring that when Halo came out it was going to be the "Best PC Exclusive of 2000".

So the Mario head was the top of the poster then the rest was underneath? Kinda feels overdesigned, although I guess it helps Mario stand out more prominently. The lower part is great, though.

Were they on the back of the poster? And the cards are really cool. Can't remember if I had those.
