AVGN tears Metal Gear a new asshole!

I see an RPG hiding pussy got his butt hurt

I know people are buying the RAM cart for RPGs because the only time the cart comes up is when someone wants to play an RPG and can't save (not necessarily this forum). No one in their right mind would pay $50 to save Sonic or MegaRace, that's why I haven't bought one.

I do like RPGs, but I actually play and enjoy nearly every genre except music and RTS. Can't you just save to the Sega CD's internal memory? I know there are some games that won't even save to an external RAM cart, not sure if Sonic CD is one of them or not.

You don't like RTS???????



Hey, to each their own.

No, as is with most people, because the horrible save battery is usually DOA on most Sega CD systems. The damn thing will even lose saves after a month if you don't play it for a few hours in that time period according to the instructions. I don't know why they didn't just use a CR2032 like EVERY GAME SAVE EVER or use something like Sonic 3 that doesn't need a battery and saves files FOREVER.

Hey, to each their own.

I know I sure as hell don't.

I know I sure as hell don't.

I'm honestly shocked that I didn't know this already. You usually beat the rest of us over the heads with stuff you don't like.

But like I said: to each his own.

Hey, to each their own.

I don't dislike them, I just suck at most of them. The music genre (other than Parappa the Rapper) is the only one I actively dislike.

Yea I`m no fan of the music genre, I can`t for the life of me see what`s so great about the likes of guitar hero etc! But like MrMatthews said, to each his own.

I like AVGN. It is entertaining and I will happily watch all new episodes.

When did he ever do a SF IV review? I think you've got your youtube reviewers mixed up. Besides, he's even said before that he intentionally plays "bad" (really average actually) to point out the flaws of the game and how dick it was for kids just trying to have some fun. If you'll notice, he tends to make it far in even some of the more difficult games so he can't be that bad.

He did something but it wasn't a review: http://www.cinemassacre.com/new/?p=911


And if the battery is so hard to find, couldn't you just modify it to accept a similar battery that's easier to find? (or if the voltage is odd, a few batteries in series)

And it could have used FRAM like Sonic 3, but I'd imagine that would be quite expensive, EEPROM would work fine (I think the Jaguar used this exclusively for cartridge saves and the CD's Memory track) but it has a different problem, it eventually wears out (as does modern flash memory) and won't save anymore.
