"Insanity" mentionned as one of the "Top 5 New Games for Old Consoles".

Not sure if this is the right forum section for this.

But the PCE, and more specifically, "Insanity" was mentioned as one of the "Top 5 New Games for Old Consoles".

I do not like this person.

It's nice that Insanity is getting some love, though it's a bit of a dubious honor as the list of "new games for old consoles" can't be very long anyway.

I thought this video was very well made. It would have been nice if the list were a little longer. I liked that he included Zaku in the list. The similarities to Air Zonk are undeniable in this game. I'd consider buying a Lynx just to play this cool looking game.

"Will give your Turbo Grafx CD drive something to do......finally!"

Bite me LOL.

Though nice to see some recognition for Insanity

You're why we can't have nice things. ;)

FUCK YEAH! Thats what I'm talkin about!

It may be on the bottom of the list but who cares!

Next time will be better! BAM.

Joe Redifer · 12/22/2010, 02:23 PM

Yeah, the Cobbweb game will rank higher!

OldMan · 12/22/2010, 02:44 PM

Insanity probably would have ranked higher if we had taken 7 years to develop it. Heck, Pyramid Plunder looks better already, and it's only been in development for a bit more than 1 year...

edit:
I meant better than insanity <lol>. I realized it was unclear when I read it back :-)

I don't understand why Wukong is #1. He made a speech in the beginning about how he is judging, in part, about how the game handles the capabilities of the system. Wukong is a very weak Genesis game, technically. It wouldn't have been impressive been in 1989. Also, he includes games he hasn't even played, like Wukong (he orders it after he talks about it). It is interesting that he doesn't give Super Fighter Team's web page as the link to buy Zaku.

I wish he would have made more (any) mention of the music for Insanity. I think that is it's greatest achievement! That and trying to be as retrotarded as possible and succeeding! It sure don't push the limits of the system.

I am still very glad for being mentioned along the ranks of other games that people get hard for.

Its funny too because Zaku debuted the same day as Insanity, at the same convention.

Yeah if we had 7 years to develop a berzerk clone, oh man. I think/hope retrocade kicks alot of ass.

thats awesome good for you ark

That dudes a D$%^ smack! "Give your super cd system something to do." Instead of going on ebay and buying that lame ass mario hat he should play his.

DesmondThe3rd · 12/22/2010, 10:45 PM

I just saw that video last night. Cool of Jewario to do that but that version he showed was the preproduction game wasn't it?

Those are new consoles to me, lol.

Anything PSX and up is new as far as I care.

Good games though

Tatsujin · 12/23/2010, 02:04 AM

erm.. two of 'em were released on the NG AES first

Joe Redifer · 12/23/2010, 02:12 AM

I thought there were only MVS, not AES releases of those two. They are also insanely expensive.

Arkhan Asylum · 12/23/2010, 02:44 AM

Oh, yeah, that definitely was a preproduction Insanity gameplay snip. I had volume down and didn't notice. ... then I read the comments. Everyone was like

OMG IS THAT MR. ROBOTO?

:-D
