@drake999 "original" road roash on PSX? Blasphemy! ;)

If you enjoy road rash, you should check out Road Rash 64.

Real road rash is on sega megadrive (aka genesis). Period. ;)

@quicksilver Lol, ok I get you. Yeah I'm that way with bad movies. If you like to laugh at something awful, watch Samurai Cop, lol. That makes for a good movie night with beers, lol. Me and the fiancee watched that as well.

quicksilver

@sano Yea thats what I was implying. The N64 comment was supposed to be a seperate idea.

drake999

@sano I've played the Sega CD version, which is a watered down version of the PSX game. Yeah I've heard good things about the genesis version. Need to try it.

@drake999 There is a great interview on youtube with the main actor in that movie. It was done by the guys from Red Letter Media. Really funny!

drake999

@quicksilver Thanks, I'll check that out next time i'm on YouTube. To keep from derailing the thread here's another game suggestion that girlfriends and wives might enjoy. Devil's Crush for the TG16 / PC Engine. It's probably one of the best retro pinball games out there in my opinion. Don't know if this one's been mentioned already, but I doubt it.

@drake999 I love that game. I grew up with a TG16 and I played the heck out of devils crush! It was actually one of my moms favorite games too.

drake999

@quicksilver Yeah every once in a while I fire it up. The chiptune theme music is some of the best I've heard in that generation hands down too. The music alone makes you want to keep playing I find. My fiancee loves that game as well, but not as much as Road Rash PSX lol.

@quicksilver
Now we have to open a "Mom friendly games ?" topic :)

quicksilver

@sano Yea that would be quite an interesting list. My mom hated video games when I was a kid. Probably because of how much time we spent playing them. But there were a few games that would get her hooked. Tetris, devils crush, and alien crush to name a few.

Air zonk was another game on TG16 that I love (can you tell?) that had great music for the time.

@quicksilver Same here, when I was a kid my mom wouldn't touch video games with a 10-foot pole.

drake999

@quicksilver Never played that one, I'll have to check it out sometime. Always looking to find a good game that I missed. I was a Sega kid before the PSX, so I mostly know games that came out on Sega consoles.

Then you'd have needed an 11-foot pole, "the thing you use to touch things that you wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole."
