Marble Madness??

I just noticed this game reviewed in the PC Engine software bible. I know it was unreleased, but has anyone here actually played it? If only there was a ROM dump to try it out...

It's an unreleased game (like Peter Packrat, Gods...). I don't know if the game was near completion or not. But it's possible that a proto has popped up somewhere.

Strangely I have no idea how or when I reviewed this as I've not played it. I am baffled and plead insanity as many of the reviews are based on things I wrote over 10 years ago, which is why I am updating and correcting much in the current site. I have vague memories of playing a rom, but logic states I can't have and I certainly can't find it if I did.

Oh man, Marble Madness rules. Why didn't they release this sucker for the PC Engine or Turbo?!

Ya a CDROM version would of been cool.

Hell, this game would've fit just fine on a HuCard. We don't need no stinkin' CD!

Yer darn tootin'!

But then NEC would have had to release a roller ball controller.

...speaking of madness, I have to get Military Madness for my mobile. That just might be the best mobile game yet. I just read that it won the best cell phone game award in 2005. That's a no brainer.

Whoa, if anyone has a playable ROM of this, please share!

Do you mind giving furhter info for those two games listed

? I don't think I've heard of those ones before!

Word.. Gods would have kicked ass on the PCE.

juggernaut · 10/16/2007, 05:37 AM

Nooo, was Gods actually planned for the PCE? It's one of my favorite games of all time. Man, life is unfair sometimes.

Boop beeep boop beeep AAAAAAaaa aaaa aaaa AAAAAAA aaa aaa AAA aaAA. I remember I always used to think it was saying "Into....the waterfall" and I was all "WTF THAT'S DEEP".

Well since I can't do it justice, here's the MOD (plays in Winamp).

Keranu, this is Gods.

Thanks for the link, it looks pretty cool!

Gods is one of those few gaijin games that were advertised as WIP for months but never released. I remember a couple of screenshots. The game was to be ported by PCM Complete, the same company that eventually did the PC-98 and Mega Drive / Genesis conversions. I think the chosen medium was the HuCard, because I remember wondering how well/bad they would adapt Richard Joseph's soundtrack on PSG.

Thanks for the top info, as usual ;) !
