Capcom Beat ‘Em Up Bundle

[endo]

I know, bugger knows why they haven't bothered this time, especially when it's not exactly a bare-bones package. Hoping they'll patch it at some point.

I'm hearing that it looks ugly in 720p/handheld mode.

Don't know- I went and got the PS4 version in the end for some reason.

So am I right in thinking it is only available on physical release in Japan?

It’s a nice little bundle, even without the licensed games we also want... I’m very much up for his!

That's right.

Just had a quick blast.
I'd forgotten how tough Final Fight could be!

I'd also forgotten how gory Captain Commando was!
Two seconds in and I'm slicing some henchman in twain!

Just pre-ordered the Jpn Version for the Switch so I can have a physical copy

Just gave this a blast through. Nice enough and the games are of course largely timeless but the lack of any filters is not really on, especially since the ad shows some CRT style filter on Final Fight. Ultimately, m'eh, should really learn to just avoid these things.

[dataDave]

They need to bring back slavery for any developers not adopting Sonic Mania's CRT filters for low resolution releases. Include the sound teams, even. Make an example. Come on, please. Sonic Mania was made by a bunch of amateurs.

I bet it's because these legit devs never spend time emulating stuff, and were never even around back in the CRT days.

Neil, where do you recommend picking up the standard PS4 physical release from, online? I’m reluctant to call in a favour from family / friends abroad.

I realised I hadn't played a couple of these.

Battle Circuit was completely new to me and is bOnKeRs!
First level, I'm fighting an alien on a spaceship and all the background henchmen are sat on toilets.

Toilets.

Second level I'm fighting against a disco Elvis.

Elvis.


I really liked Armoured Warriors after working through them all last night.
Love the chunky mech design and the ability to upgrade your weapons (that drill was great) and there's a story going on in the background with loads of characters swearing vengeance for something or other.
It's a more unique theme for a scrolling beat 'em up, rather than the usual "save the girl from the punks".
Quite why Haggar has to cross the city by tube eludes me, when he should just get his driver to go straight to the end-of-game boss tower.
The little enemies gives a nice sense of scale too.

What's this infinite combo loop for Guy?
I actually find him boring to play in comparison to Haggar, who can suplex, piledriver and spinning clothesline his way across the enemies.

[112]

Quality Chimp, I think Guys speed and nimble feel makes him feel less restrictive in comparison to baggers heavier close combat feel...

I’ve always preferred Cody’s all roundness - plus he gets the girl at the end even if he is double crossed... looking forward in the Fibal Fight universe for Cody, I suppose going to jail is not that great either for ‘getting the girl’.

Stick with Hagger, you get more appearances in future FF games...

As much as I really didn't want to use them I went with Nin-Nin-Game

They were the only ones who had it listed

Looks like owning a Switch will kick start my importing again
