Mad-Dogg 04/07/23 6:17:11 AM #31:	Youtube put up this rpgs on the 3DO video that I let autoplay, and the dude eventually gets to this one dungeons and dragons first person game. Said game has a ton of platforming in it, but for whatever reason they could not find any button to put jump on besides the start button.......definitely is the only video game I can think of that had jump on the start button. Sure the sega genesis back when it came with a 3 button controller sometimes had to get a little wacky to fit a ton of actions on just 3 buttons....for example it was common in street fighter games to have the buttons swap from punches to kicks when you press start, and mortal kombat games on the sega genesis used to put block on the start button if it was the 3 button controller, but the 3DO controller despite also having 3 buttons had at least 2 more on top of that: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/7/8/7/AARkkPAAEXAD.jpg They could have put like, magic or whatever the hell on select or somethin' and put jump on that 3rd button, lol. --- GTag:MadDogg730 PSN:lMadDogg NNID:xMadDoggx More peeps on gamefaqs need to try the indie game cyber shadow.
