Nah, Maximo was a game inspired by GnG for the PS2...

Tag for later, but immediately interested (although I've never beat a G&G game; I think I got the false ending in the gba port because I didn't have the right item or whatever or you have to use something specific in the final fight)

Looks dope

Capcom has been kicking ass lately. Is there anything in the pipeline for Dragon's Dogma?

They should do that and a retro version like the bloodstain games.

Always liked this series.

Hard to believe the PSP game was so long ago.

Looks good. Didn't know Whoopee Camp was still around - I remember them as the ones behind the Tomba series.

I'd love a Maximo vs Army of Zin HD port. Either for sale as a hidden bonus in that.

In all seriousness, this should be a Demon's Crest reboot.

People want a new one, though. Same as people like having new SMB games instead of just playing SMB3, 1, etc. You ask about the demand, but even in this topic there's interest and it's not like PotD is some hardcore platformer audience.

the only compelling bit of the original is a like 12 pixel window to get the right weapon in the last stage. is this a gimmick we need an entire game for in 2021?

You're aware that there were a whole lot more games than just the first, right?

Yeah, double the pixels, half the gameplay for every one that came after the original.

And they all still misused the original gimmick.

There really isn't though. Spam and jump, and hope you figure out the right subweapon in the last level, or do it all over again because you did it wrong.

Theming, artwork, characters, mechanics (and it's funny that you highlight the special weapon mechanic -- which is literally the smallest gimmick mechanic in the game -- while ignoring the more memorable armor break mechanic), the nostalgia-inducing name, etc.

And you don't really have subweapons. iirc, the weapon you pick up is the one that you're stuck with.

And Arthur's inclusion in MvC has kept a pretty steady interest in the franchise, as well as the merch over the years.

Yeah I'm with Whiskey here, none of the sequels to Gn'G ever really added or improved on anything much.
Gargoyle's Quest and Demon's Crest were way better games that changed with each sequel.

Mainly due to Sir Arthur showing up in the MvC series (the last two games)

I beat Three:

  • OG Arcade Ghost N Goblins (on a Emu/Save States)
  • Genesis Version of Ghouls N Ghosts (the easiest outta the Series, IMO)
  • SNES Version of Super Ghouls N Ghosts (hard, but not as hard as the OG game)
Never played the PSP version (eventhough I want to)

I barely remember the first one. My older brother beat it and I remember watching him play it. Not sure if I actually ever played it myself but probably did.
