No, NOT a trick, a Halloween treat! Presenting the Dead of the Brain 1 English patch by David Shadoff for the DEAD last official PC Engine CD game published by NEC before exiting the console biz in 1999!

I miss my dose of Turbo music:(  sorry everyone...been away from the site for awhile..

Huh,

There I was across the street at my friends house, and some guy who lives there has a bunch of stuff strewn around in boxes...something caught my eye, and I bent to investigate. Sure enough, it was Double Dungeons..along with 10 or 12 more Turbo games all in their cd cases..The guy was on vacation but I guess he was just going to throw them away! I was also told by my friend.."yeah, he's got a few more of these weird games..never seen'em before..he'll probably just give em to you.."  Imagine..I thought I was the only one in my town who had this stuff...

Can't wait til he gets back and I'll give a full report! -Doom

Just wondering if you guys have been tracking the new controller for the Revolution...pretty nifty..Nintendo is turning away from the console wars and going in a completely new direction, saying that siply trumping the competitor's hardware specs is not enough, and the intensity of the specialized gaming experience is creating a narowing market in japan, with the world sooto follow... I love trailblazers..and NEC is collaborating to make some of the hardware:)

Feedback / How do I get/find an avatar?
08/10/2005, 10:55 PM
Hey everyone..forgive my ignorance, but while I don't post often, I come here everyday, often several times. I have always wondered about how to get an avatar or picture or whatever under my screen name.  what sites are good to grab them from,  or can i yank them from anywhere?  then do I just upload it in my profile info?  Thanks for any help...-Doom

Hey everyone...I recently put the Duo aside for a bit to work on DWVII on an old playstation I got for cheap.  I loved this series on the NES and was wondering if anyone here was a fan too and what you thought of VII ,  and whether you think VIII will be good or not.  the trailer looks crazy...!
#11
hey everyone,  I picked these up not too long ago on auction...haven't played them much yet..what are your opinions?

P.S. And excuse my ignorance,  but I want a cool logo or avatar too..where do you guys get them? -Doom
#12
I now realize how big of a player hudson was in japan,  and all the fantastic games they made for the Pc engine and Nintendo..which now begs the question: What is your favorite?
#13
is Hudson still its own company?  Or was it Konami that folded and was bought by Hudson? I couldn't really get a feel for things by glancing at the website...
#14
Hey Mindrec has some pics of their RPG on their blogger!   and a game called PC gunjin...Sweet!  This makes me want to support them by getting meteor blaster..anyone played it?  is it cool?  I am excited now....I wonder if  we could round up some old Hudson programmers to help give these games some more impact...they must be out there,  trying to keep the heat going..maybe they would....
#15
Alright..I am putting myself on the laughing block,  But I love this game.  Granted, i am a platformer/RPG/shooter guy. Back in the day,  my buddy and i would play series after series of this game against each other,and now like 14 years later we picked it back up and still luv it.  yes, the programming is faulty,  sometimes it doesn't even follow real basketball rules, like charging callls and free throws for the wrong transgressions.  there is no music,  and a weird in betwen courts screen where you pick plays...BUT  it is not commercial, and the players have goofy names named after the programmers,  all with different abilities,  and it is better than takin it to the hoop, (in which the 2nd player cannot pick up a rebound, try it and see)...with just a little more tweaking,  they could have done so much with it, especially on cd...if only mindrec would... dunno..just another crappy turbo game that for some reason stuck and its reply value has been immense....any feedback?
#16
Just curious,  did early original PCE games come with a box AND jewelcase?  or just jewelcase..and if so..did they eventually go to just the plastic tray..i suspect not..as the tray method was doubtles a means for poor TTI to save some bucks....or maybe they came with a slidecover,  like supergrafx games...any help?  I never see any PCE games up with a box,  so I think no box..but you never know
#17

whatever happened to die hard video games that ran all those kickass adds in EGM back in the early 90's,  and where are they now?  or gametronix for that matter?  no websites that i can find..are they still around?

I am collecting old electronic gaming monthlies from the days of the 16 bit wars of  old.  anyone wanna get rid of their old collection?  can be in any shape as long as whole issue is intact.  will also accept offers from '89-'91..especially early issues !   :)  Otherwise, does anyone know where I can find these issues?  ebay and 1up.com seem dry. Thanks:)
