Re: recommend games like snatcher/policenauts

I strongly recommend not playing CYPHER. It's very poorly written, and the parser makes very little sense. I second Gemini Rue. It's a stunning point-and-click adventure game set in a futuristic space world with noir styling. In the same vein (and from the same company) is the newer Primordia, which...

Re: SNATCHER Magazine articles

No, sorry, I just thought that was an important question. And I was curious.

It's funny that they turn right-side-up when you click on them.

Re: Little John Figure!

Yeah, I've seen the Metal Gear Rex. That's a lot for a figure, but the Rex is huge and intricate.

Maybe the figures were exclusive to an event, but that's very clearly price gouging. That's what happens when there's no competition, I guess.

Re: Little John Figure!

Wow, really? That much yen is almost $50 USD. That's a lot for a little plastic figure. Also, I just don't get why the colors are different on the models. Like why is one dark tan with pink trim, and the other is light tan with red trim? If the dark one is unpainted, why didn't they just make the ma...

Re: SD-Snatcher Remake!

That's a lot of progress. It'd be ridiculous not to do the rest of the game.

An English localization would be ace.

Re: Little John Figure!

I don't understand the difference between the one on the left and the one on the right. Why is the right one darker, and why does it have all-gray wheels? And why is it on that platform? I'm confused.

Oh, and I'm assuming it's 3500 yen for the CD + the figure, right? Still, that seems pretty steep.

Re: PSX - Save Games?

Thanks for the save games. My memory cards just got wiped. I copied my memory card files from my ePSXe 1.7 folder to the ePSXe 1.8 folder, and that erased them for some reason. The Act 1 save is probably just a few minutes later than where I was at (I had just finished talking to Gates at BCPD after...

Re: Cyberpunk 2077

Could be a coincidence, but it's not that big of a stretch that a cyberpunk video game would pay homage in this small way to one of the most influential cyberpunk video games.

Re: New Kojima Interview with Snatcher Remake Possibility!

I wonder if these people who are "good at making adventure games" know that Kojima is interested in partnering. Maybe someone should send some emails out?

Re: Policenauts windows truetype font

Yep, they must have licensed it for use back then. It's certainly not just a coincidence, and I'm sure Konami would have had the money to buy the right to use it.

Fun fact: most of the fonts we use today have been in use for decades or even hundreds of years.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077

I'm psyched for this game. Seeing the trailer for this made me want to replay Snatcher. And I just finished it. I think the goggles on that guy may very well be a Snatcher reference, just for the hell of it. I love cyberpunk stuff. The only big release in the genre recently was that terribly overpri...

I like the idea of releasing two editions that work for their respective software, if you have too much trouble fixing all the bugs for both.

Re: Current Project Status (1/14/09): Alpha Testing

Just stumbled upon this site after looking up Policenauts. I'm looking forward to the completion of your project. I haven't played Policenauts yet, so I suppose I'll wait to play your version. Good luck, and godspeed.
