_________________________________

Anyone remember the Spriggan contest we had on these forums four or five years ago? I was thinking of doing something similar, this time with Zeroigar, but we need enough people to make it worthwhile.

The game has a nice 2 minute mode that would be perfect for such a contest. The 2 minute mode is scored a little differently than, say, Spriggan as in Zeroigar you're given a finite number of "super weapons" right from the start that all share a common "energy meter." The catch is, your final bonus is tallied by how much of this meter is left unused + how much life you have left.

So... who's got a PC-FX? And who's got Zeroigar? A PC-FX is really the only "must" as there are, uh, ways to get ahold of Zeroigar.

Who's in?

Id be in depending on the time frame.

I gotta do some furniture moving, and some homework project and all of that... but Id be down.  PC-FX is so hood.

Yeah, we'd set a deadline for scores like three weeks or a month out or something, give everyone some time to get a copy of the game (if they don't already have it) and get some play time in.

Nobody else? Seriously? I know for a fact Arkhan and myself aren't the only people on here who own a PC-FX.

Where were you a couple years ago when I was selling repaired PC-FXes for $40-$60?

Actually, IIRC, you almost bought one but backed out at the last moment.

correct, I still kick myself when that all went down.  Sorry dude.  I hope that doesn't tarnish my rep for buying and selling stuff with you or others...

Shit - either M.E.F.X. has a bug or my rip is fubar.  Either way, I'm not going to get to join in on the festivities, as this just leads to a black screen.  :(

The normal game played fine, though.  I got to show off my suck by dying twice against the weak sauce first boss.  :dance:

Strange, I wonder if MEFX has a bug. Doesn't seem like the game would work at all if your rip was bunk.

I'd love to do it, but it doesn't seem like we have enough people to make it interesting. I keep hoping some more folks will chime in.... I *know* there are more people with PC-FXes here that haven't spoken up.

ME-FX doesn't emulate something that Zeroigar uses, use Mednafen instead.

DJLobo

I would play if I had a copy of the game. I'll have to "find" it and see if it will work on my system.

I have an FX coming in within the next few weeks... as long as burns work on them I could probably join in on a Zeroigar contest... :P

By the way nat, props for most ambiguous thread title ever.

So here's who we have so far:

FOR SURE
nat
BlueBMW
PCEngineFX

MAYBE
Arkhan
SuperDeadite

If we can turn those two "maybes" into "for sures" and get one or two more people on top of that, I'll say we're good to go for a contest.

Plenty of time to practice while we wait for one or two more to join and for Arkhan and Deadite to commit.

Ha! I'm in.

Wait, I don't have Zeroigar.

I've actually only played this game a little bit on a friend's PC-FX ~10 years ago.

I just realized that I need to play this game now. Now.

I'm glad that it's only taken 4 months for this thread to be re-juvenated.
