Yeah playing through these has made me realise how big a leap was made from early to late Megadrive. It's like two different gens. Pulseman especially feels like they wanted to see just how much juice they could squeeze out.Moot_Geeza wrote:It's great, I hadn't played it until we did it in the retro club a few years ago. Looks more like GBA game than a Megadrive one, can't think of anything on MD that looks quite like it.

Played 7 games in total (on Normal) and emerged victorious twice.
...and it really was as good as I'd hoped from start to finish. Easily one of the best puzzle games I've ever played, and I also enjoyed watching the hideen Statik riddle being solved on YouTube. Numptymortals like myself would have no chance solving it, but it was all very well done and the extra ending was good. One of the best games on PS4 and probably the second best VR game I've played (despite not being as deeply dependent on VR as you might think, it's still a great fit).

I'm not sure how many of you have or could have access to the VR stuff (specifically Playstation in this case), but it's wowed me with the way it perfectly executes its core idea. I don't know how long I've got left of the main game, but if it maintains the current quality we're talking near Portal levels of aplomb. For each puzzle your character is seated, with both hands inside a contraption that's key to success. As you twist the dual shock pad the one-of-a-kind box that contains your hands moves with it, buttons/stick clicks/directions and so on perform different actions on different areas of the box. The room that you're in may also contain clues or areas to interact with. Your task is to gradually work out what you need to do to solve the metallic muff conundrum. There's no direction, no assistance - you're just left to get on with it until the solution starts to click. Once you succeed the device prints out a ticket that's scanned by a robot and you're gassed to sleep. It's like having the Crystal Maze in your hands, brilliant stuff.
