Had lots of fun with @time_extend this weekend replaying CMR3. It was the first game I ever worked on, and this track (Finland SS4) was the first stage I designed for the game. Good times! @dirtgame @Codemasters
@JazRignall Oh no way?! They were going to go with the US design? I makes sense, I guess, based on the PAL NES design, and naming of the SNES too. Glad they did switch though, its my preferred design.
@JazRignall That kind of makes sense, but nobody else does that. Maybe because we could buy the PAL-1 Asian Mega Drives over here (another oddity!). It's just always been strange to me why it was like that. It's not like you could buy an NTSC SNES or SFC in 'normal' game shops here.
@JazRignall You know what I always find weird about the UK/Euro SNES packaging? It specifically says PAL VERSION in big writing. It's weird because nothing else has ever stated it so prominently. I wonder why it was stated so largely? Because it uses the SFC design?
@TheStingisBack You can see it on the pan when he goes into the other office to look, before he sees the janitor. I wonder if it’s to make it look like ‘you’re being watched at all times’ that the murderer is watching. Interesting!! 🤔
@TheStingisBack I always loved the janitor as a ref to Elm Street (never knew it was Wes Craven though).
BUT I just noticed something. Does Scream have a fisheye lens in use? I’ve not seen the film since the cinema, a very long time ago, and don’t remember it. Am I going mad?
35 years ago, the highly influential Mean Machines launched. It was Britain's first dedicated monthly consoles magazine and became renown for its brutally honest reviews, top-class tips, and outrageous, close-to-the-knuckle humor. But then, if you read it, you'd know all this!
@nintendolife Have they fixed the Activity time resetting if the game falls off the last 20 played? A frustrating bug related to not doing a full system transfer when first setting up the Switch 2. You have to load the game on S1 to get the accurate time played back!
@JazRignall Absolute classic. I hoped M2 would give it the 'OutRun treatment' like they did on 3DS and Switch, but no! Much sad. I remember having this on my Mega Drive and absolutely loving it, great game.
By attacking with precise timing DK can parry the enemies' attacks and disarm them! The upwards punch works better against vertical attacks. Pretty stylish. #Bananza
