Raffle: [2ND CHANCE] GENPEI TŌMA DEN - KANNONI / Samurai Ghost (Re-enter to win)

[xcrement5x]

Raffler-roffle!

The details:
HuCard only, art on the front looks nice and fine but there's some wear on the back.  Works fine in my Duo-RX without any issues.  It also comes with a replacement sleeve for the game. 

I'll cover shipping if you're in the US for sure.  Everyone who meets the requirements is welcome to enter, but since I'm not sure on what international shipping will cost I may need to ask for some cash to cover the cost of international shipping if it's ludicrous. 

Entry period will be from now until about June 9th I think.
Entry period will be from now until about October 30th I think.

Requirements:
-Minimum 50 post count before entering.
-Must mention your favorite game for any non-Nintendo system... and why it's so great.

Edit: Okay, you all get a second change.  Raffle date is updated, make sure you post after my post on 10/9 to be entered.

It's pretty sad nobody signed up for the raffle. What's worse is you know if it was the US hu card there would be a list of 60 people signed up to add it to their collections rather than wanting a game to play.

- reward based dungeon crawling with delightfully simple mechanics yet gameplay that does not get dull despite being somewhat repetitive

I heard it was kind of a chore, since your always starting back at level 1 for each dungeon. And the fact that you have to maze hunt low level farm to kill slightly higher level ones and so on.

Agreed. I love this game, quirks and all.

I used to put it in the UN-/under-appreciated category back in the day.

[BigusSchmuck]

Still up for raffle? Sign me up if it is.. Right now I'm loving Dragon Force for the Sega Saturn..

[clackattack]

I would love to get in on this raffle!

I was a huge fan of the Suikoden games on PSX. The 108 playable characters, 6 man party, rune system... Love those games!

[elderbroom]

If this raffle is still happening, please add me to the list.

My favorite game would have to be Bonk's Adventure as it's what got me hooked on TG-16 back in the day.  When I bought the console at launch, I played my share of Alien Crush, and Blazing Lazers (while Keith Courage collected dust). But it wasn't until Bonk's came out that I picked up an additional game and started to Obey ! Waiting for Bonk's Revenge in the mail from Willis (but have played it on my TED already)

I NEED TO BE ON THE LIST BECAUSE CHINA WARRIOR DOES WHAT NINTENDON'T.

[owlnonymous]

I like free stuff. My favorite non-nintendo console game/system, right now is 'Snatcher' for the FEKA CD.

[wildfruit]

How did I miss this? I'd love to try this one.
My favorite non Nintendo game is shenmue because it saves me going out and talking to real people.

[clackattack]

Guess the OP changed his mind about this raffle...

[xcrement5x]

Lol, I just noticed this thread again and had no idea there was activity happening here.

It's telling that the second post was like 4 months after I started it....


Anywho, sure I will redo the raffle as of this point. 

Same rules as initially, lets have this roll until Oct 30th.  If you said you wanted in before, please just reconfirm with another post after this one. 

[Medic_wheat]

Sweet contest.   

Wait there are non nintendo games?


Mind = blown


Sigh but if I had to stray from the big N I'd say Metal Slug 3 MVS.
WHY?

oh man the sprit work gets me every time.

Expressive cartoonish characters

Point scoring

Collecting

POW high score rescue attempts

Insta kill knif attack before COD!


Green blood

Red blood

Helper monkey machine gunner


And the best part of all

It eats quarters to live!



Edit. Lol called it metal gear instead of metal slug lol.

I just want to reinforce my earlier post: this is a great game, but you have to learn how to play. YOU CAN PARRY. YUP. THAT'S AWESOME. Plus, a lot more. It's challenging. Old Sokol. But great. 

[cjameslv]

I'm down to try this game. Sign me up. As for favorite non-nintendo game there are a handfull but i just did a write-up on Panzer Dragoon II Zwei on the Sega Saturn which is a game i am currently replaying.

Panzer Dragoon II Zwei (A favorite on my Sega Saturn)
A quick review

Overview:Whats really nice is it has an widescreen option so playing on a big hdtv at night is amazing. You can level up your dragon and unlike the first one this one will let you change directions and follow different paths. Replay value is good if you find yourself only going back to this title every few months (as i do).

Tip: If you memorize each area and then do saves before each level you can get your dragon stronger faster. You won't have to track enemy's as much, resulting in faster kills and the enemy's get stronger which is a reward considering the game is not a very difficult one.

Music & Graphics: The music is decent and i rate it a 7. I find it goes with the flow but not as smooth as the first one.  Not quite the feel like say when you play Wipeout (psone version includes crystal method, which i wish was on saturn version). Graphics are great. I rate it a 9, (i use an s-video cord, not super easy to find) and really enjoy this game on a 60" hdtv. There is alot of color depth and thought put into the design.

Note: When i play other games like magic knight rayearth, i use a 32" crt with s-video since alot of the games don't have an option for 16:9.

Overall i rate this game 8/10 and definitely recommend it!

Thanks

Update* Was so into writing the lil review forgot the money shot:

Although I just entered two other raffles, I'd feel bad if I didn't toss my hat into this ring, too. But don't worry, good folks, I've got one of my own planned.

Without further ado, my all-time favorite non-Ninty game has to be Sonic the Hedgehog 3 + Sonic & Knuckles add-on. I was that kid who gobbled up Sonic 1, Sonic 2, 8 bit Sonic, 8 bit Sonic 2, even tried to hold down Sonic Spinball (I hadn't yet discovered the Crush games).

But man, did Sonic 3 just blow it all away. A lot of people like to rag on it, saying it's not as good as Sonic 2, and while I love Sonic 2, this third iteration just took all that was good and made it even better. The music was phenomenal, the stages absolutely memorable, the bonus stages both a treat and a challenge, and the size of both together tremendous. I thought they did the bubbles far smarter in this one, the graphics really wowed me, and the seamless transition from Sonic 3 to Sonic and Knuckles just flawless.

This was a great game. Despite the fact that the Turbo is hooked up right now (with Military Madness in), I may have to set it aside for a few moments to play through S3&K soon.

[xcrement5x]

I am an unabashed Sega lover myself and S3+K is one of those games that defined my childhood.  Sonic 3 alone was super fun to me since I played it sooooo much as a kid listening to Dr. Demento on the radio.

[johnnykonami]

I'll go in for this, I think G.T. is an absolutely insane experience and I've always wanted a copy.   I have tons of favorite games, and I think Alien Soldier is pretty high on the list.  I own the original Japanese cart in great condition (I didn't want the altered speed from the PAL version) and I just love that game to death.  The quintessential boss rush game with that amazing Treasure sound to back up the frantic gameplay, which I find deeply rewarding.  Nothing like figuring out how to destroy each boss then replaying it to get a little further each time, going through the previous sections perfectly.

gotta go with a re-post... I absolutely love the suiko-series, playing thru 2 again right now. I also had quite a chub for the Saga Frontier series also, loved the artwork in them
