What are you playing?

Decided to play final fight 2 as I bypassed that originally. I'm glad I did. It's bland as hell.

Charco

It really is, its only saving grace was the co op. It's a pity Final Fight wasn't released a bit later than it was on SNES, a 16 or 24 meg cart would have made a better arcade port than we ended up with.

Is final fight 3 better? If not I'll move onto the next on the list which is knights of the round.

To quote myself no its actually pretty good. Helps that guy is back in it.

Charco

@addyb Yep FF3 is better for sure and I agree having Guy back helps. They should have stuck with the original 3 characters if you ask me, I don't think I liked any of the new ones in FF2 or FF3.

I finished FF3 last night. Yep I enjoyed it. I liked the super move additions. They have seriously nerfed andore though. I used to hate facing them on FF but here they are cake.

Started legend of the mystical ninja on snes last night. I used to love that game. Today I'll carry on with my beat em ups and maybe get some shmups in.

I must have had uber skills when I was younger as I remember getting quite far on batman returns and Battle toads. Not today when I'm pushing 40 lol. Barely got past the 1st stage on toads.

@addyb play Battletoads with retroachievements enabled! ;-)

Addison

@meleu Any chance you would like to multiplayer on this?

I'd like to see how good Netplay is on the Pi.

Hope you enjoy! ;-)

@Addison I tried to netplay Bonanza Brothers (Mega Drive) with a friend ( @cabrunco ), but no success.
But actually we didn't tried so much...
I owe a netplay with @mediamogul too, maybe Contra (NES) :-).
And Battletoads with you. OK, it's in my ToDo list! ;-)

@meleu

Thanks for that. I'll check it out next week:)

Charco

Yeah the Retro Acievements thing is cool, glad I set up an account. I changed the font size in the Retroarch menu aswell as it was too tiny on my big ass tv, I can read all of the achievements now :)

meleu

@Charco do you use the same nick there?

Charco

@meleu Yep same nickname everywhere :)

Sounds like a plan, man. It's been forever since I've played co-op on that game.

meleu

@mediamogul Let's not to be so rigorous. We can use Konami Code for 30 lives. :-)

Would anyone be interested in some Quake 3 online gaming at some point?
