Anyway, I would like some feedback from you guys as to what you would like to see from this project.
Here's a nice long games that were released for the Megadrive: Click Here
I'm probably not going to go into any of the Japanese only games as I don't speak word one of Japanese but I will check to see if there is an English option. Also, no compilation games are on that list so I'm not going into them either.
How would you like this project to go? Ideas I've had so far:
Videos (with or without commentary, still undecided)
Reviews on the site with links to video?
Still undecided as to where to start on the list. Should I just go from the numbers to Z or leave the well known games for last?
Should I aim to complete the game or just go for a certain length of playtime? Obviously, long games would be near impossible to complete with the sheer amount of games involved etc.
Any suggestions or if you want to help on the project in any way, please let me know.
In suggestion, Altered Beast was the first game released for the Megadrive. Why don't you just take a few select games that were released every year, and then you can comment also on the progression of the console? And not have to play so many games
(Personally I like the idea of celebrating the anniversary, but man, playing every game seems just ridiculous and without real aim. As for doing a smaller chronological thing, there aren't the same amount of games released every year I know, and say you might be able to find 5 great games one year and only one in the early years - but then how about casting a vote? To select a few games to give a 'select representation' of each year the Megadrive was developing, somewhat landmark. The result gives more of a history of gaming, more appropriate for recognising an anniversary. A write up on each game then would be the sort of thing I'd read on a big games website and enjoy.)
Anyway, I think I've settled on 10 minute quick looks with an extended play video at a later time if there is enough demand or time.
With the groundwork laid, maybe something a bit more in depth like was suggested can begin a little later.
I'm gonna honour the great S_NES and play through its entire back catalogue on an upside down TV to see how each game has aged and whether it can be played in a zero gravity environment
Its a lot, but if you can get all that info it'll be very informative and intersting to read.
