Re: JESUS: Tale of the Dreadful Biomonster - Major Influence

Interesting info regarding the robot! Found more info here regarding the differences between the pc88 and famicom versions here- http://pixelmenu.22web.org/features/jesus/jesus2.html That explains why the rabbit style robot isn't walking around with you in the PC88 version. http://i251.photobucket.c...

JESUS: Tale of the Dreadful Biomonster - Major Influence!?

I've never played this game but I recently stumbled across a review of this game on youtube. I think JESUS might have been a major influence on Snatcher after skimmingthrough some of a playthrough. JESUS came out for the PC-88 in April 1987. That's a year and half before Snatcher's release on the PC...

Re: Potential MSX Stream...?

I say record it and throw it up on Youtube so that it can be watched by anyone. Might be a handy resource for people who get stuck in the game as well.

I still haven't done my playthrough of the MSX version yet so it'd be fun to watch someone who knows what they are doing.

Re: Japanese Junker Gun!

The only thing is that it's absurdly big to be a pistol real life when scaled to a normal person's hand. I've got a friend who's planning to build one and he's decided to scale it down just abit so that it doesn't look like you are holding a pistol grip shotgun. http://www.therpf.com/f9/snatcher-met...

Re: Snatchers in MGS Ground Zeroes!

Do you think Gillian could face off against a bunch of soldiers though?

I guess he did face off against about 50 Snatchers robots at the end of Snatcher. He might be a little more capable than I thought.

Gillian on a sneaking mission could actually be kind of fun now that I think about it.

Re: Snatchers in MGS Ground Zeroes!

The X-ray and the tone of the narration implies that these Snatchers are more Alien based than man-made.

Looks like they have big fangs underneath.

Re: PC-88 vs. MSX Versions

One thing that was nice was that I was running it in the blue msx emulator and it had a feature where you could speed up the system to different percentages. Makes it much nicer go through.

Thanks for the list! Perfect! I was playing around with the max version the other day and was wondering if it was running correctly. It seemed to be going really slow. In your list you mention this. So this is normal? I think I've got a screen cap of that extra frame of art that you mention. It was ...

@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN: Come to think of it....the 1st "Snatcher” 88 ver was released in Nov 1988. MSX ver got shifted to Dec. It's been 25 years since then.

PC-88 vs. MSX Versions

I was thinking about finally playing the MSX version of Snatcher and started to wonder what differences there were between the PC-88 and MSX versions. I've always had trouble telling the screepcaps of the two games apart, but after checking the screencaps from http://www.mobygames.com/game/snatcher/...
