what dvd recorder do you use? i've been looking for a good one for a while now.

[TheFinalHighlander]

It's an "LG DVD Super Multi DVD recorder" but unfortunately I have a habit of throwing the user manuals for electronics away so I can't be more specific than that. Cost about £140 when I bought it nearly two years ago. It works perfectly except for some reason it hates dual layer DVDs which I found out to the cost of lots of good footage in my original Actraiser review funnily enough.

Damn. This game looks absolutely epic. Both games did and I would like to take a crack at them at some point. I just need to get a Super Nintendo again. I don't know if you ever played it Dave, but you'd probably be a fan of Demon's Crest on the Super Nintendo. It's made by Capcom, so you probably won't go wrong with it.

Several people have said of Actraiser 2 that its "nearly as good a platformer as Demons Crest". I haven't played the game before, but it sounds interesting.

A favorable review of Actraiser 2! I never thought I'd see the day. I only recently gave this one a serious go, and I have to say... it's great. So the sim element from Actraiser 1 is gone. BIG DEAL. I can see why it's a dealbreaker to some, but if they wanna make a tough action platformer with the same sort of elements, they sure can. Good review, sir.

It's odd. I really don't like side scrollers at all. This game and Bubsy are the only two side scrollers ever made (that I've played; and I've played a lot of them) that I've LOVED! Although I confess, until I saw your review I had no idea the main character was supposed to be the Judeo-Christian God. I always assumed he was supposed to be some Greeko-Roman god. I'm personally glad they changed it outside of Japan because the character has much more characteristics of a pagan god.

I just watched both of your Actraiser reviews. Very enjoyable. Especially comparing the U.S. release, to the European release. Looks like you guys got the better end of the stick, but that will not stop me from enjoying these 16-bit gems. Keep up the retro reviews!

I don't really understand gluttony but I also don't know all that much about ants so maybe there's a meaning that I just can't think of.
