Lumpy the Cook posted:The thing that sticks out in my memory most about this (aside from almost totally killing Squaresoft and forcing the Enix merge) was how they tried to make the girl some kind of ‘virtual celebrity’ and have her do news interviews with anchors and playboy shoots and crap. I remember Roz from Frasier was in it as some kind of super-soldier, but she just sounded like Roz, so I kept expecting Donald Sutherland to make jokes about how much of a slut she was or w/e

can't wait for Ubisoft's Roguelike adaptation of Henry David Thoreau's Walden, with the book included with the game disc. maybe my kids will be able to get all their summer reading for school done through AAA Prestige releases.

Wormskull posted:I own it and the expansion packs. On two platforms. I reinstalled it several times and one time had to call EA to get my legal copy to work. I'm pretty sure if you gave it to 10 people now, maybe 1 of them woul dbe able to get it to actually work such that you could play through the entire game.

FactsAreUseless posted:I've never heard of this but I'm reading about it and it seems insane. Yeah, it was clearly designed for a mouse, and while you're trying to figure out what the picture of the lips does or even how you select it (because there's no documentation) a giant weird Star Fox shadow thing making laser barf noises just kills you in about 30 seconds. i beat it (using a walkthrough, i'm sure) and i literally don't remember the ending or understand anything that happened at all.

FactsAreUseless posted:Drakkhen was developed by a French team, which was then translated into Japanese for the Super Famicon, which was then translated to English and further rewritten with help from the original French developers. To exemplify the telephone effect of all this, the original game contained a French translation of an Emily Dickenson poem as quoted by a mysterious teleporting wizard, and that French translation of an English poem was then translated further into Japanese for the Super Famicon version, and then translated again back into English from Japanese. The version of Miss Dickenson's poem that survived into the SNES version of the game is almost unrecognizable and difficult to comprehend. lmao

FactsAreUseless posted:Another notorious enemy is the powerful "Shadow Man", a tall, dark figure that would unexpectedly emerge from the ground, accompanied by an ominous tune. Fighting this monster at an early point of the game meant certain death, which may cause confusion among new players. seriously, get this on an emulator so you can experience it in real time with the hosed up sound effects, it's a uniquely bizarre game

Kongming posted:I think you're thinking of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_7th_Saga This game's US localization made some minor tweaks to gameplay that buffs all the monsters which makes it super-hard to play for most of it, with a huge difficulty spike when you get to the point that one of the seven apprentices turns out to have betrayed you, but it gets almost impossible right at the end of the game, when you get the seven runes and the game reveals the twist. it's hard to beat even with an emulator, they broke it that badly.

also: iirc, the game plot is that a king sends you to get the seven runes because he is old and dying, and he needs you to get them to defeat some bad guy. the twist is that when you get the seven runes, you get sent hundreds of years into the past and they take away all of the runes (which you learn to depend on for stuff like healing), and you try to beat the bad guy in the past, but only seal him away, then, after hundreds of years, you become the king from the beginning. that's the good ending. it's a really good and interesting game with mechanical problems right up until you get the 7th rune.

FactsAreUseless posted:7th Saga is actually playable. It's just weird and hard. it's super-not playable when you get to the end. the localization team totally hosed up and basically just stuck a multiplier in all of the game's numbers.

like, i beat both Drakhen and SNES Jurassic Park, but i lost patience with 7th Saga. my brother got so into it that he briefly joined SA as Doros (there's a town where everyone says "Hail Doros!"), but like, in what should be the last 5% of the game, the need to grind increases so exponentially that he hacked the ROM to level his characters so that he could see the ending. Seventh Saga is like in the Illusion of Gaia sphere of weird and awesome SNES RPGs, you just unfortunately can't be expected to finish it.
