Return of Action 52 Vol. 9 (+ Daytona lvls. 8-9)

7. Daytona - From the crappiest Genesis game comes the crappiest racing game. The graphics are not worthy of a Genesis game, much less a Genesis racing game.

There are 9 unique tracks (levels). You have to make sure that you finish each one-lap race in time without losing all your money. Each level has an entrance fee that you have to pay. Crashing also costs you money. If you want to profit, you'll need to win prize money from winning first place in each level.

I'm wrapping it up here with levels 8 and 9.

6. Sidewinder - A pathetic nonfunctional (and non-fun) rip-off of After Burner. Didn't Sega already release After Burner II for the Genesis, by the way?

Anyway, you can watch me fly away like a coward most of the time. XD Here in the last level, you have tons of indestructible missiles going after you, and each enemy fighter takes 10 shots to down, so it's very difficult (but not impossible) to take one out before it flies away.

5. Star Ball - Pinball, Action 52 style. (i.e.: almost completely unpredictable) To beat each level (which is identical except for the color of the walls), your ball must go through, or "catch", all the coins, apples, moving aliens at the bottom tier, and the "A-C-T-I-O-N-5-2" characters. The physics are so messed up that the ball sometimes stick to walls and go through the flippers. Also, sometimes the ball will inevitably fall right into the death chute in the lower left corner of the table, so good luck playing without savestates/luck manipulation. Virtual Pinball and Pinball Dreams it ain't.

What happened to Part 10?

[riki9999]

Sorry I'm really behind on this. I'm still struggling with Darksyne, which is really really really frustrating even with slowdown and savestates. I'm not a big fan of "Asteroids physics," lol. I'm thinking I'm going to either skip Darksyne, or at least try to play it "Action 52 Torture Chamber" style XD

The car in Daytona looks just like a photo, if it isn't one.

Maybe he broke down and got committed to a mental institution after playing through all 104 Action 52 games?

[johnwx777]

Daytona...just like the arcade game.Only completely different and lame.

As I could see, Those freaking games are making my eyes very tired. Action 52 sucks.

[Deokishisu]

The poor man's version of Afterburner and Outrun.

[Airship86]

I wonder if they purposely made the 9th track of Daytona shaped like a male crotch area.
