I wish it was online so we could do some Bonanza Bros. co-op. I loved playing that game with my brother back in the day.

Comix Zone has always been awesome.  Awesome gameplay, awesome style and humor, awesome graphics, awesome music.  Game rocked so hard when I first played it in Toys R Us and is still awesome today.

I remember them being good but they've held up so well.

Comix Zone looks fucking amazing for a 1995 game

Comix Zone is also one of the few games that actually looks okay with the godawful filter.

I know this is an old observation, but: it makes no sense that a free emulator can have a dozen different filter effects but Backbone's ports have all of one. I've been enjoying a bit of the original Phantasy Star, and putting the filter on it is almost funny: it blurs shit so badly the characters don't even have eyes anymore (not to mention some of the Genesis games where the filter more or less erases thin text).

demi, is there a trick or something to beating Eggman in Mean Bean Machine? Because I'm about to give this disc to Superman to deposit directly into the Sun.

[demi]

Not really, no

I've been trying to unlock Space Harrier, but Super Thunder Blade is eating me for breakfast.  :'(

Just keep your colors together and hope you get lucky.  I tried it about a dozen times before I finally beat him, and I didn't really do that much different each time.

What's up with Fatal Labyrinth? I keep running through the first level, but I can't find any stairs or whatever that will take me to the second level. Am I missing something really obvious here? 

[demi]

Yeah you arent exploring enough, DUH

[Great Rumbler]

That's what I was doing, I mapped out the whole level and checked every room for hidden passages. Do I have to actually step on the spot where the stairs are for it to appear?

[demi]

Nope

[Great Rumbler]

I walked through the whole level at least four or five times and I don't see anything that looks like a staircase or a door. 

Am I just stupid?  :'(
