Hi,
That makes sense. Though, too bad they couldn't do it. That would have
been cool and much more realistic.

Hi,
That would be an interesting set of matches. Though, in a case of
Sub-0 and Iceman they would likely be equally matched. Iceman is
practically invulnerable to ice attacks since that is his specialty.
Iceman's weekness is fire, and would be better matched with someone
with a special fire attack.
Although, since MK VS DC does have DC characters I would like to see a
matchup between Ice and Sub-0. However, since Ice is a little known DC
Comics super hero I don't think we will ever see that happen.  She
appeared in a few shows of Justice League Unlimited, but didn't get
really any lines or important parts. i guess DC Comics has side lined
her character after her supposed death and disappearance in justice
League International.  Though, her appearance in Justice League
Unlimited may be their attempt to reintroduce her character to DC
Comics fans.

blades and hack away at Wolvarine only to find Wolvarine's blade coming out

Hi,
I definitely agree that Marvel characters would have been better
matched with MK than DC characters. The X-Men especially would have
been totally kick butt in the game. I'd love to be Cyclops. Walk up to
a MK character say, "yo dude," whip off my glasses, and blow them away

work a lot better... a lot of the x-men, fantastic four, etc. I just 
think

that those are suited more to a dark tone like this than what Midway has

Wolvarine against either Baraka or Kung Lao
Scorpion VS. Sabertooth
Shao Kahn VS. Appocolyps
Shang Tsung VS. Mystique
Sonya Blade VS. Storm
Silver Samurai VS. Kenshi
Sentinal VS. Smoke
Lady Deathstrike VS. Kitana.

Battle chess! the world's most violent chess program!

I really hope you got someone to describe,  or looked up online the 
taking piece animations sinse they were hillarious! Pawns smacking each 
other in the voonerables, castles that were huge rock mosnters and stomped 
on people, bishops magically creating pits under opposing pieces, knights 
hacking limbs off all over the place, queen doing the full business with 
lightning magic and the king who was just wrong!


When taking the opponent's queen he'd put his arms around her, kiss 
her,  then stick a knife into her back!


At the chess club I went to at one stage the leader bought in an Amigar and 
had a game with the hole club vs the amigar,  by discussing the game and 
people voting for moves.


The problem was, everyone always voted for whatever moves would result in 
taking pieces just for the amusing deaths, so it really didn't work that 
well.


it was rather fun though.

Beware the Grue!

Dark.

Golden axe also was a great game for kicking or headbutting enemies off

The MK game's story mode in the latest game is actually a lot more

fights. As to Soul Calibur IV, it isn't coming out on the wii... namco 
realized their mistake with Soul Calibur legends. That wasn't a

Mega man 9 at least is also available for the wii, - which has 
actually been a strong point in it's favour.


I'd be slightly surprised if they don't release a wii version of Soul 
calibur Iv, given the release of Soul calibur chronicles.


I'm rapidly losing interest in the Mk series again given the lack of 
accessible story modes.


As to new games, unfortunately these days with graphics the way they 
are, and the intensive move into real time interactable 3D 
environments,   which is sort of the second wave of the 3D games 
started in the Ps1 days, new games aren't really a factor for me in 
considdering systems to buy anymore.


In fact, new game availability hasn't been a factor for me sinse 1994, 
the release of the Ps1, and the intensive boom in 3D gaming.


While it's been great for beat em ups, it's absolutely killed any 
access I have to other game genres such as platformers.

Hi Dark,
Lol! Now, that would have to be absolutely funny to watch. I am like
laughing my butt off here listening to you describe how you introduce
his head to the pavement. Then, use his bouncing body to knock out
other bad dudes. that has to be great.

Yeah, Golden Ax was awesome. Even though I didn't personally own that

Hi,
Well, I for one am a big DC Comics fan, and can't wait until I have
the cash to upgrade to a new system and get MK VS DC. I really think
that is going to be a totally kick butt game. Though, with the U.S.
econemy in the toilet right now I am not too sure when that might be.

Microsoft has had this awesome concept for live anywhere, and they want to

Absolutely Tom! and I really hope you'd not only include all the cliffs, but 
(as in true double dragon fashion), would have at least some stupid enemies 
who'd charge streight past you and off them!


to my mind this was always the ultimate in humiliation, to just stand at the 
edge of a cliff, have a crook charge at you and jump or move at the last 
moment!


While we're on the subject of side scrolling beat em up fans,  has 
anyone played golden axe? I'd imagine it'd be mildly difficult in audio 
unless you got the amigar version where the enemies refrained from charging 
you, but it was,  and stil is thanks to my Mega drive and Mame, one of 
my favourites of this genre.


I particularly like Gillius' the dwarf's backward rolling axe smash. Fall 
back into a back roll, axe extended, smacking anyone behind you one in the 
chest in the process.


Golden axe also was a great game for kicking or headbutting enemies off 
bridges, into lakes, or into abysses in the dungeons.


If you do do a 2D side scrolling fighting engine, it probably wouldn't be 
any the more too difficult to reproduce than double dragon, though it'd 
obviiously require sword and axe sounds, appropriate music and the aability 
to cast magic which would effect all enemies in the immediate area.

Re: [Audyssey] What games are people playing now?

2008-12-19 Thread dark

Hmmm, that would be Mk vs Dc?

Not being quite as much a comic fan that doesn't catch my interest quite as 
much as a regular Mk game would,  though I do enjoy story modes in beat 
em ups.


the mk title I was thinking of with the irritating story mode was in fact 
armageddon.

The MK game's story mode in the latest game is actually a lot more 
accessible.. it's done in a tekken fashion with cutseens between fights. 
As to Soul Calibur IV, it isn't coming out on the wii... namco realized 
their mistake with Soul Calibur legends. That wasn't a fighting game, it 
was more like a 3rd persion adventure action type thing.

Mega man 9 at least is also available for the wii, - which has 
actually been a strong point in it's favour.


I'd be slightly surprised if they don't release a wii version of Soul 
calibur Iv, given the release of Soul calibur chronicles.


I'm rapidly losing interest in the Mk series again given the lack of 
accessible story modes.


As to new games, unfortunately these days with graphics the way they are, 
and the intensive move into real time interactable 3D environments,   
which is sort of the second wave of the 3D games started in the Ps1 days, 
new games aren't really a factor for me in considdering systems to buy 
anymore.


In fact, new game availability hasn't been a factor for me sinse 1994, 
the release of the Ps1, and the intensive boom in 3D gaming.


While it's been great for beat em ups, it's absolutely killed any access 
I have to other game genres such as platformers.

Honestly.  I think not fancying an x box cause it's microsoft is a poor
reason.  Believe it or not, the fact that it's microsoft really helps it a
lot.  If it was any other company, I question the accessibility of the web
interface.
 Microsoft has had this awesome concept for live anywhere, and they want to
make it accessible on as many devices as possible. Btw.  Accessible in this
sense doesn't mean useable by the visually impaired. Just to clear that up
now.

Hi Dark,
Darn straight. I loved the Double Dragon type games because they were
one way to expend your agrivation. If someone was giving you a hard
time at school, you were in deep trouble with your parents, whatever
you could let the creeps in the game have it all. You could kick,
punch, headbutt, beat with a baseball bat, until you either expended
your anger or mmade it to the end of the game.Whichever came first.
However, in such situations merely beating them around wasn't enough.
i usually found new and very painful ways to take them out. Such as
knocking them off cliffs, throwing them out of flying helicopters,
knocking them off platforms, you get the point. If I was mad all bad
guys just better get the frag out of my way or I was going to kill
them very very painfully. Lol!

Yup. Very nifty move. And useful, especially in tight situations. One of my 
other favorites was a split kick that you could do that went out both ways, 
and then turn it into a slide kick by comboing into it.


Another move is from another game called the bouncer. And of course, 
creatively, it's called the Giant Swing. This is actually considered a 
throw. The character grabs the opponent, and swings him or her in a 360 
range, knocking everyone down. Anothe useful move especially in close 
quarters maneuvers.

than I did before, but for the reasons you detail I don't play games which 
I cannot use my vision on at all, though I know some other people have.


A good example is Mk deception. I really enjoyed deadly alliance, 
especially the textual story mode (perfectly easy with a faq).


I haven't however bought deception sinse the games story mode went into 3D

Hi,
That's definitely an interesting line up. What is sort of funny is
while my wife and I do own a PS2 I don't often play it myself. I find
learning to play mainstream games a struggle as many of the games I
like require alot of physical consentration and memorisation to play.
I don't enjoy vidio games as much as I once did, and I think alot has
to do with the fact I know what it was like playing games with sight.
However, back in the 1980's I think I was a vidio gaming king. As far
as a favorites list goes here is a pretty good list of the ones I
played often when I still could see to play them.

Sounds like a nifty move. Rise to Honor's wall kick was pretty nice too. Run 
up a wall and kick off, coming around in a circle to perform a spinning kick 
that knocked just about anyone in reach's teeth out.

My favourite of that style of move is Skate's dynamite headbut.

Wheel along on rowler skates, flip up into a ball smacking one thug in the

Hi,
Sure. One of the things i Liked about Double Dragon III was Billy's
nifty reverse kick. You could punch one enemy in front of you and at
the same time kick the guy sneeking up behind you in the jaw. It was a
pretty slick trick.
As far as walk along beat-m-ups like Double Dragon you could usually
grab weapons the enemies dropped. if the enemy was carrying metal
pipes, bats, guns, whips, whatever once you knocked that guy out you
could take his weapon and go to town on the rest of his buddies. The
baseball bat was always fun because you could beat the tar out of the
enemies with that.

If it's 2D and like the original double dragon, you'll only need moves to 
take out characters either side of you, or charging moves to go through a 
hole line,  pluss chucking one enemy at another (a favourite tactic of 
mine,particularly in games like streets of rage 2).


Oh, and to get that classic double Dragon feeling, Tom would just have to 
include the bouncing barrels of doom to throw or kick through long lines 
of enemies!


The hole point Clemment to the double dragon style is you pounding your 
way in a 2D world through gangs of opponents, usually in groups of 2-4, 
but sometimes up to 8 or even 10 at once!

accessible.. it's done in a tekken fashion with cutseens between fights. As 
to Soul Calibur IV, it isn't coming out on the wii... namco realized their

Mega man 9 at least is also available for the wii, - which has 
actually been a strong point in it's favour.


I'd be slightly surprised if they don't release a wii version of Soul 
calibur Iv, given the release of Soul calibur chronicles.


I'm rapidly losing interest in the Mk series again given the lack of 
accessible story modes.


As to new games, unfortunately these days with graphics the way they are, 
and the intensive move into real time interactable 3D environments,   
which is sort of the second wave of the 3D games started in the Ps1 days, 
new games aren't really a factor for me in considdering systems to buy 
anymore.


In fact, new game availability hasn't been a factor for me sinse 1994, the 
release of the Ps1, and the intensive boom in 3D gaming.


While it's been great for beat em ups, it's absolutely killed any access I 
have to other game genres such as platformers.

Do you happen to know the Xbox live line up compare to the Wii's virtual

If it's mostly 80's arcade stuff I'm not be overly interested sinse A, some 
very good freeware Pc remakes of those sorts of games exist, B, I prefer 
something with a litle more substance, and C,  their are some very nice

Amstrad cpc tape drive computer,  which would have been around 1987 or 
88.


Actually, Double dragon is one of the games I remember playing before I lost 
all the sight of my right eye (my best eye), at the age of 7.


Part of me does wonder if that hadn't happened, what I'd be making of main 
stream games now sinse I'd have considderably more vision.


Unlike my brother I'd started off learning braille not large print, but I 
probably would have been able to play the various 3D titles.


there's also a possibility I could've seen enough of the print to cope with 
action rpgs, but oh well,  so it goes.


Beware the Grue!

Hi,
Probably. Games like Double Dragon really aren't that difficult to
create. Especially, with all the code I have ready to go. I really
liked Double Dragon myself, and it is one I do remember pretty
vividly. Back in 87 or 88 when Double dragon came out it was like the
rave for a long time. Every kid in school I knew had it and it was
pretty popular.

some clone of Final Fight or Double Dragon... but adding platforming
elements would be nice. With the MOTA engine, I think that could be
possible.

Mega man 9 at least is also available for the wii, - which has actually 
been a strong point in it's favour.


I'd be slightly surprised if they don't release a wii version of Soul 
calibur Iv, given the release of Soul calibur chronicles.


I'm rapidly losing interest in the Mk series again given the lack of 
accessible story modes.


As to new games, unfortunately these days with graphics the way they are, 
and the intensive move into real time interactable 3D environments,   
which is sort of the second wave of the 3D games started in the Ps1 days, 
new games aren't really a factor for me in considdering systems to buy 
anymore.


In fact, new game availability hasn't been a factor for me sinse 1994, the 
release of the Ps1, and the intensive boom in 3D gaming.


While it's been great for beat em ups, it's absolutely killed any access I 
have to other game genres such as platformers.


Beware the grue!

Hi,
Sure. One of the things i Liked about Double Dragon III was Billy's
nifty reverse kick. You could punch one enemy in front of you and at
the same time kick the guy sneeking up behind you in the jaw. It was a
pretty slick trick.
As far as walk along beat-m-ups like Double Dragon you could usually
grab weapons the enemies dropped. if the enemy was carrying metal
pipes, bats, guns, whips, whatever once you knocked that guy out you
could take his weapon and go to town on the rest of his buddies. The
baseball bat was always fun because you could beat the tar out of the
enemies with that.

Re: [Audyssey] What games are people playing now?

Both are good-sounding things... particularly the bat, although the reverse 
kick sounds pretty nifty too. One move from a beat em up I like is a game 
called Rise to Honor, starring Jet Li. It's a running spinning kick off the 
wall... which is neat because once you reach the wall, you hold down two 
buttons for him to leap at the wall, kick off it and spin in a circle. It 
can catch up to about 6 opponents, as I remember.

Re: [Audyssey] What games are people playing now?

2008-12-19 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi,
Sure. One of the things i Liked about Double Dragon III was Billy's
nifty reverse kick. You could punch one enemy in front of you and at
the same time kick the guy sneeking up behind you in the jaw. It was a
pretty slick trick.
As far as walk along beat-m-ups like Double Dragon you could usually
grab weapons the enemies dropped. if the enemy was carrying metal
pipes, bats, guns, whips, whatever once you knocked that guy out you
could take his weapon and go to town on the rest of his buddies. The
baseball bat was always fun because you could beat the tar out of the
enemies with that.

Re: [Audyssey] What games are people playing now?

2008-12-19 Thread Clement Chou

Low-vision gaming land is fine. I'm interested to hear about it...

The ps2 is a good option as would the wii if you're looking for classic 
games. But as I understand the menus on the wii are a bit of an irritant to 
visually impaired people. I recently got a ps3 as an early christmas gift, 
but unfortunately it wasn't one with backwards compatibility. Meaning until 
I find another ps2, my game collection is essentially useless. lol. But if 
you can find one of the earlier launch models for a decent price, I'd say go 
for it.

I've actually been considdering buying deception and shaolin munks

incredibly cheap, so even if it didn't work I'd stil have a playable 
arcade game for not much money.


laying games like audio quake and terraformers i suppose I would guess 
my sensary intigration has increased.


As well though for me, I've always enjoyed plot and atmosphere in games, 
while I've been playing beat em ups ever sinse Streetfighter 2 and 
original Mk2 on the Snes, I only really became tremendously interested

Hi Dark and Tom.

As a totally blind person who got into video games, I guess I can't 
relate as well. Growing up on fighters and brawlers, it's hard to say 
that I have a problem with playing games the way you two have a hard 
time with.


In regards to alliance, I did like that story mode better. Deception's 
story mode is a pain, yes, but the other modes are worth the buy. The 
games I find hard to play are games that have too much going on at 
once. Some instances of Urban Reign, for example. There are six or 
seven guys surrounding you and with the music and voices it's hard to 
tell which way to turn. I don't know. Video games have just never been 
hard for me though again, I guess it's because I never actually had to 
rely on my vision for them.

Again, i bought a gc principley for low vision reasons sinse a lot of for

could play them with the gameboy player.


Again though, sinse things have moved onto the unplayable for me ds, I've 
recently considdered buying a Ps2 primarily for sc3 and shaolin monks, as 
well as some playable Ps1 games.


I've also though recently considdered the Wii, primarily for the virtual 
console, - but this is getting dangerously close to low vision gaming 
land, which deffinately isn't a place I should be going on this list so I'll 
stop.

Hi Dark and Tom.

As a totally blind person who got into video games, I guess I can't 
relate as well. Growing up on fighters and brawlers, it's hard to say 
that I have a problem with playing games the way you two have a hard 
time with.


In regards to alliance, I did like that story mode better. Deception's 
story mode is a pain, yes, but the other modes are worth the buy. The 
games I find hard to play are games that have too much going on at once. 
Some instances of Urban Reign, for example. There are six or seven guys 
surrounding you and with the music and voices it's hard to tell which 
way to turn. I don't know. Video games have just never been hard for me 
though again, I guess it's because I never actually had to rely on my 
vision for them.

I think sinse an audio game would obviously use a streight 2D perspective 
rather than the modified 2D perspective used in scrolling beat em ups like 
final fight,  where the character could effectively move sideways away 
from the player, , amore platforming elements could indeed be quite 
possible.


I actually remember some old amigar beat em ups like this such as legend of 
cage, koungfu charley, or Bruce lee.

Re: [Audyssey] What games are people playing now?

2008-12-19 Thread dark
There's an irony Tom, you've listed some of my current favourites like the 
Mega man games, Double dragon and centipeed which i play from a low vision 
perspective.


I must admit, sinse I've started playing audiogames I have paid more 
attention to, and probably used game audio in graphical games a lot more 
than I did before, but for the reasons you detail I don't play games which I 
cannot use my vision on at all, though I know some other people have.


A good example is Mk deception. I really enjoyed deadly alliance, especially 
the textual story mode (perfectly easy with a faq).


I haven't however bought deception sinse the games story mode went into 3D 
and became visually totally inaccessible for me.


while I know some people, through extensive memorization and use of audio 
have managed this mode,  I'd personally just find it exceptionally 
irritating I think.


Beware the Grue!

Hi,
That's definitely an interesting line up. What is sort of funny is
while my wife and I do own a PS2 I don't often play it myself. I find
learning to play mainstream games a struggle as many of the games I
like require alot of physical consentration and memorisation to play.
I don't enjoy vidio games as much as I once did, and I think alot has
to do with the fact I know what it was like playing games with sight.
However, back in the 1980's I think I was a vidio gaming king. As far
as a favorites list goes here is a pretty good list of the ones I
played often when I still could see to play them.

NES Games

Castlevania
Contra
Double Dragon I
Double Dragon II
Double Dragon III
Legend of Kage
Legend of Zelda
Megaman I
Megaman II
Megaman III
Ninja Turtles I
Ninja Turtles II

Atari Games

Asteroids
Atlantice
Centipede
Demon Attack
Deathstar Mission
Empire Strikes Back
Pitfall
Poll position I
Poll Position II
Space Invaders
Spider Fighter

Hi Lindsay,

Well, actually I'm not really playing anything right now.  I normally am 
playing or test playing the heck out of whatever game I am creating or working 
on at the time.  Right now though I am still just going through sound files 
looking for some for Mach 1 tts.  So it is not anywhere near playable yet.  
Have played some Homer on a Harley, Puppy 1, Pong, black jack, poker and Master 
Mind, but that's about it.

I didn't catch the entire show, but Grand Theft Auto 4 won video game of the 
year, Fall Out 3 won RPG of the year and I think that it was Rock Band 2 won 
music game of the year.

Yeah, I'd say so. You missed some of the coolest games in classic
gaming history. Prince of Persia, Megaman, and Castlevania topped my
top 10 favorite games of all time. They also all happen to be great
examples of side-scrollers.
One of the things that was cool and a pain about Megaman was the
vanishing platforms. You would have to really time your jumps just
right or one would vanish before you made it across the level or you
sometimes had to jump back and forth from platform to platform until
the correct platform appeared. That frickin trap use to drive me nuts.

Yes, climbing is also a possibility, so it's basically a game that goes 
left
and right, but can also have more than one level. Say you could leap onto 
a

platform, leap onto one higher up and there'd be a new area to explore.
Growing up in the 90s, I didn't get into games until I was about 7, and 
by
that time it was already 1999 and side scrollers weren't as common

Re: [Audyssey] What games are people playing now?

2008-12-18 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi lelia,
There are several different formats for games ranging from roll
playing, first person, side-scroller, etc. In short what side-scroller
means is the player starts at the far left-hand side of the screen and
the object is to run, walk, climb, swim, etc until you reach the
right-hand side of the screen thus ending that level.
Unlike First Person type games that tend to be 3D in nature
side-scrollers are 2D games that give you basic directions of
movement. You can move left and right and some also will let you climb
up or down on stairs, ropes, vines, trees, whatever. However, the
basic objective of a side-scroller is to jump over opsticals, kill
enemies that get in your way, and make it to the right side of the
screen thus ending the level.
Smile.

Hi,
You are forgetting that most side-scrollers will also let you climb up
and down on staircases, ropes, vines, whatever. Liam's Super Liam game
doesn't have that feature but both my side-scrollers Montezuma's
Revenge and the newer side-scroller, Mysteries of the Ancients, allow
you to climb on things giving you up and down movement as well as left
and right.

The up button on a keyboard or controller is used for jumping, down for
ducking. In short, forward and backward are the same as left and right,
because side scrollers are 2d. And the only way direction to turn in is 
to

turn 180 degrees and face the opposite direction.

A side scroller is a game that only moves in the left and right directions. 
The up button on a keyboard or controller is used for jumping, down for 
ducking. In short, forward and backward are the same as left and right, 
because side scrollers are 2d. And the only way direction to turn in is to 
turn 180 degrees and face the opposite direction.

1. They are for the ps3 and ps2.
2. Yes, they are accessible, if you have the patience to learn it.
3. You do need the guitar and drum controllers, the regular controllers 
are

only for vocals which you would need a mic for.

Hi,
Well, just a little while ago I was putting Mysteries of the Ancients

1. They are for the ps3 and ps2.
2. Yes, they are accessible, if you have the patience to learn it.
3. You do need the guitar and drum controllers, the regular controllers are
only for vocals which you would need a mic for.
