Sep. 23rd, 2004 12:11 pmWhatever happened on Gamingforce, I decided I'd have nothing to do with it.
Rich has actually played the Platoon video game. It's basically impossible on an NES because there are Viet Cong everywhere, and there are alternating paths. The wrong path leads to an invisible tripwire that causes an explosion.
Casey said there was a bike chase in ET. Maybe. I'm sceptical. I think it's just holes.
So, in summary, fads are stupid, movies and TV shows make crappy video games. ValuSoft made a game about the Ho Chi Minh Trail, and if anyone wants to tell me that even they wouldn't do that, they did make a computer game involving the Care Bears.
