Not to mention that in a year later or even less, you can usually get a Game Of The Year or Deluxe edition that includes any add-ons/DLC. Those versions usually cost $29.99-39.99.

Not even since Funcoland... Quite possibly never. Haha.

I am happy for that haha. So you're basically telling me that this game was the original Pokemon. Summon animals to fight until you're the last man standing. Nice.

I never got to play any Spectrum games as a kid. I was just a little too late to that party... I really respect Julian for taking a title like this particular one, that has been mostly forgotten, and bringing it back to life. I hate the HD Remake world, but sometimes it's done for the right reasons.

That's gonna be a purchase for me 100%. They've butchered the series a couple of times already, so hopefully this time off has been beneficial.

Awesome. Haha.

Did he get to request that change because he was the first to beat the comment game?

It's happeningggggg!!!!!

Still not better looking than that old Camaro.

Hahahahaha. Zing!

I am a Nintendo fanboy, and a Sony fan. I have also owned every Microsoft system, and generally tend to sell them down the road after trying a few exclusives. On the original XBOX, there were some extremely good games that were not blockbuster hits. Not to mention the abundance of good solid games in general. That…

This game looks cool. I tried Minecraft and didn't like it at all. Believe me.. I tried to like it. It just didn't do anything for me. But this looks far more beautiful. I'm loving the fragmented geometrical look, rather than a bunch of cubes. It has a digital paint/kaleidoscope type of feel. Like polygonal…

"No word on a Western release."

I happen to agree with you, but there's no reason to get defensive. The WiiU has been out the longest, and while it does have the best current line-up out of the 3 home consoles in our opinion, the upcoming line-ups for Sony and MS are looking pretty strong. Just a bummer that I got PS4 on day 1 for Drive Club and I…

That Saturn 6-Button WAS awesome, and still holds up by today's standards although a bit noisy and hollow feeling. But the Genny and DC controllers had some of the worst D-Pads ever made. The Genesis and Saturn D-Pads look identical, but the feel and precision was better on the Saturn ones. Still, they all…

That sounds fine with me haha. HD versions of the original Rainbow Road and Ghost Mansions. I'd be happy.

Today Jason, you are envied. I suck terribly at this game.

I generally agree with you, but I have to at least admit that I've seen a small handful of amazing ones.

My role on the Kotaku is to get your attention, so that my pals can steal your pudding snacks.

I would prefer the opposite. A horror game about the TRUE horror that is getting old. You can play as an 84 year old, and you have to do everything ridiculously slow, and every little thing irritates the crap out of you... literally.
