Hrmph. I shamelessly promote this game to everyone I know who's even slightly interested in gaming on every God-given opportunity, and now I forget to mention it.
@ MrT-Tar
Yeah, because an awesome game not getting released in Europe is totally unprecedented. *smiley to sound less dick-ish*
OT:
Another game I want to talk about is Phantom 2040 for the Super Nintendo and Genesis.
(The guy in the video isn't very good, btw, but it's the best video I bothered to find that somewhat represents the game in its entirety.)
Haven't heard of it? Me neither, until a few months ago, when I bought it from a Finnish auction site. Basically, it's a Metroidvania game, with a hint of Vectorman. (In the sense that it has a large focus on jumping, shooting and ducking.)
The 48-character (Yeah, you read right) password system is a big pain in the ass, but I'd still recommend it for fans of the genre. Does it replace Super Metroid or SotN as the all-time classics? Lolno. Not in any way. But it should still be a fun, inexpensive source of amusement for you, if you enjoy exploration-based action games.
