Arcades

[Hirst]

Hirst I've never played the first Lethal Enforcers (obvs know of it though) but your post makes me really want to do so!

Do you know which is the best port? I'm seeing on Reddit people saying that the PS1 version has accuracy issues.

The Mega CD port is the best one to actually play, despite the low colours and lack of being able to leave scenes riddled with bullet holes. The PS1 version is a messy port and doesn't play right.

Top tip. Thanks mate.

It's a mark of M2's excellence with the Sega 3D Classics Collection on 3DS that the gyrometer motion controls are so good that it almost perfectly recreates the Super Hang-On coin-op controls.

There was an arcade game from the 80s that was the precursor to Hang-On, where you had a full-size scrambler bike that ran on rollers and you had to follow a light and that would give you a score.

I can't seem to find a decent photo of it, but it looked like this:



Anyone else remember it?
We're talking 80s arcades.

I know that. I distinctly remember the cabinet that you mentioned.
It was wasn't some form of Enduro Racer was it?

Probably predates Enduro Racer as there's no actual screen/graphics.

It's just a bike on a pole that moves on rollers as you turn the handles and you have to track a light that moves left and right.

Enduro Racer. Wasnt that the one where you had to pull up the handlebars to do jumps? Good times. I so badly wanted my bad copied spectrum version to load. It never did. It was number 096 on my C90. Was my own fault for being a child pirate.

That's the fella, but there was a stand-up and sit-down version with the tilting handlebars, but also a bigger one with a motorbike saddle, where you raised the whole seat up like you're doing a wheelie.



This isn't the game I'm thinking of, though.
