Wow, the Ballz one was just plain hilarious to watch. XD
Hehe. I’m glad ya’ dug it. Trust me, never play this game; unless you have a buddy and some brew.
I’ve heard that the Saturn version of RE had a Golden Tyrant, were you able to beat that goldenlicious of a monster?
Oh yeah. The gold Tyrant is no more powerful than the original you face in the lab. In this version, the Tyrant that hops outta’ the case goes down after two-three shots with the Colt. When ya’ go for the door, that’s when the gold Tyrant hops out of a blackened case in the back. Now he’s the challenge.
When you signal Vickers, you’re attacked by the grey fucker again.
It’s funny; when I first played this version, I didn’t know about the addition of the gold Tyrant, so it acutally made me jump. It was a good feeling. Reminded me of when I first played it and the “dogs-coming-through-windows” sequence scared the shit outta’ me. Fun stuff.
Whenever I hear Bio Hazard I always think of the genesis shmup :P.
Anyway I never played the japanese or saturn versions of RE1 sadly. For all the reasons you stated, I still can’t find a reason why I should. You pointed out the graphics as being inferior which is something that could only prevent me from trying it out. I don’t know when you played this game and wether it’s nostalgic to you or not, but tbh those cutscenes are hard for me to be takes serious XD, and in a game like RE, you at least wanna be able to take it serious, despite the bad VA, which I agree is awesome haha
