Capcom was having a superb sale for all you gamers out there interested in looking to add some video games or video game related merchandise to your collection. I, for one, was super stoked about this sale and was planning to throw a bunch of items in just before the sale ended. This is an account of my woes related to the sale among other Capcom related things that I truly believe that the Capcom gods in the heavens have decided to scorn me.
Last year around late Fall, the Lost Planet 2 demo went live on the, you guessed it, Xbox Live Marketplace. I immediately played it and got hooked with the gameplay mechanics that I was able to witness. I played and joined numerous online games with each one bearing a slightly different experience from the last game played. My original intent was to post up my thoughts on this demo, but all of this got sidetracked with everything else going on which is usually the case for me.
Recently at the beginning of this year, I replayed the demo with friends after urging them to download it. This post is based off of my experience and thoughts from that time.
Dreamcast, oh, how I love thee!
On September 9, 1999 (coolest release date ever), the revolutionary Sega Dreamcast was released as Sega’s last hurrah after a series of steady decline in response to a lukewarm or lack thereof reception to the Sega Saturn, 32x, and Sega CD. Despite it’s untimely decline and ultimate fall after only a 3-year run, its presence and contributions are still felt worldwide coming into the next era of console gaming.
This is a brief, yet humble homage to a console that was well before it’s time.
