I dig TFV. But I have the jp saturn version so I don't know what WD did to it.

 

[Wollan]

Ain't that the 'water f-zero' arcade game?

If I recall correctly the difficulty as compared to the Japanese version was crippling.

 

[Tarazet]

I don't know why there would have been a reprint, it wasn't rare to begin with. It's worth about $15 complete.

Hyrdothunder?

I figured it had to be, every other PSX game was...nothing, just an empty white cd jewel case with a yellow sticker telling its name.

Then you got Thunderforce, which was just sitting there in pristine condition, the jewel case is flawless, the gleam of the shiny shiny that WD used is still there, the CD is brand new...

Plus it was only $2, and I didnt feel like coming home from my errands empty handed, so I picked it up.

There were these 2 40 year old fat geeks playing Kameo and making criticism comments on it.

Boy, glad I'm nothing like them. Nerds.

I'd love to see Demi inside a Gamestop if someone is trading in Advent Rising.

 

[DCharlie]

$2 for TFV? You're winnah

You'd love any opportunity to meet the legendary demi in person.

 

[MrDaravon]

You fucker, I've been looking for that game cheap forever

$2?

2 motherhuffing $ !?

Anything is worth $2. Jeeeeesus. I couldn't even buy a slap in the face for $2, let alone a genuine actual video game. Who cares what it's like. It's a shiny disc in a special plastic case with pictures... that's worth $2 in itself.

Some people.

Honestly.

Tsk.

 

[demi]

That's not true.

 

[Grifter]

That's a steal. One of my favorite Saturn shooters.

This game sucks and might infect your other games with suck. You're better off protecting your copy of Advent Rising from harm and shipping it to a Thunder Force V Safety Shelter. I'll PM you an address for one in the greater Boston area.

Tim Schafer already embezzled the fun out of my games.

...So have you ever rummaged through a Gamestop's PS1 bin? There are usually plenty of things in there I wouldn't pay a red cent for.

Can I have it? Please?

WTF? The first Thunder Force game came out before F-Zero came into existence.

I prefer the Sega Saturn version a bit better; the sprites are sharper in that version.

 

[Geek]

This reminds me how good the Thunder Force II soundtrack was and how I taped it to cassette from my Genesis instead of having a social life.

*CRY*

Not really - the only change that WD made was to the scoring/extend structure, so you didn't get as many free ships through the course of the game. The difficulty of the bosses and such is still the same.
