3 (4) articles coming from me by valentines day 2009.

Title says all.

[sega fan]

I sent it last night at 11:45 PM central America time.

[sega fan]

I sent my SF 2 review on the 2nd of October, do you have it. Are you saving it, because I haven't heard a word. ;)

[Zebbe]

First of all: it might take a month or so to get a reply on a review because the review schedule may be very long. Second of all: if it is Street Fighter II or Shining Force II it will be rejected because they have already been reviewed and the site policy states that only games that haven't been reviewed yet may be reviewed. Third of all: I don't mean to be rude here, I just explain things.

[sega fan]

I understand we'd be backed up but its the SF 2 Plug n' Play not the Genesis game and I told Melf ahead of time and he gave me the green light. Atleast I now know it'll take longer.

[Melf]

I did indeed get your article, and I should get to laying it out this weekend. I have Zebbe's Fan Translation article to update, and a few reviews to do as well.

[sega fan]

Thanks very much Mr. Horowitz and Zebbe

[Melf]

You're welcome, and thank you for contributing!

[The Sports Guy]

Remember when I was like that? "Where's my review, Melf?!?!?" after just sending it like a day before that?

Yeah man, if you send in something, unless its total crap (which im sure yours wasnt) it will make it on this site, eventually. If it is a review, there is probably a line to get yours on there. I usually wait for my review to go up to get started on my next review, but now I am getting started on my next one. Just gotta relax 'bout it man - iss all good.

[Dirt Ball Gamer]

Melf this is unrelated but I have a question. Its not really important or anything but I was wondering how come my age has not updated correctly on my displayed info? I turned 25 last September and just noticed the other day im still listed as 24. I mean Ive always wanted to be forever young, but I like to use my advanced age as a vital tool for condescending younger members:). jj. Just curious really its no biggie if its a pain to change

[sega fan]

ok with everyone else ? PS, how do I submit pictures with my upcoming story from the book of genesis.

[MrMatthews]

Fine by me.

What else did you find at the flea market?

[sega fan]

Thats it for today. I'll be going back tommorow, set High hopes for a new story for the book of genesis. in the other thread I mentioned I didn't find anything.

[sega fan]

Finished, Just typed it all in the past 3 hours. So, How do I include pictures with my new anecdote.

[Melf]

You can take them from your console if you have a capture card, or you can use an emulator. Just don't take shots from another site, please!

[sega fan]

Alright, the PM service won't let me have file attachments so here you go. Sorry Melf, I'm still trying to get the hang of how to deliver all my content, I'm getting better, gradually.

Note : May contain spoilers, and no, I no longer look like that, I was 11. Go see the post a picture of yourself thread.

Bump for Ken

[VinnyT]

For future reference, here's Ken's email:

Edit: DER!

[David J.]

You said your father was in the USAF... where were you stationed?

He's an officer right? What's his name so I can look him in the global :P

[Christuserloeser]

here's Ken's email:

I wouldn't post it in public. There are email harvesters that collect emails from message boards and sell them for spam.

[VinnyT]

You are absolutely right and I'm fucking retarded.....

Damn it.

[sega fan]

Sonic Gold Compilation.

How good is the Emulation ?

[sega fan]

Also, I'll try to do this co-inside with my planned 3 ninjas kick back review.

[nathanallan]

Do you have a link to the story you read or something we can go look at? I might pick one up, Sonic's always on my to-get list.

All the stuff I write is my own ideas and concepts. So, There is nothing I'l be quoting. Sorry for now, but by christmas/holiday you'll be happily reading.

[Melf]

I'm working on your Street Fighter II article, but I need to ask you about some stuff. Do you have AIM or MSN?

I don't understand. What product are you reviewing? Has it been talked about anywhere else? Is it on a Concepts or upcoming products page anywhere?

I can be patient with your article, would like to read it, but you mentioned a new plug-n-play coming down the pipe, which is a Sonic compilation, and that much is understood.

Good to see a Mazin Saga review. One of my favourites. Those bosses, especially Dino Beast and the claw one in New York, were cheap as hell though.

Yeah, the first boss is cheap because you don't know how to kill him at first. I passed this up and forgot about it in my collection when I got my CDX 3 years ago. I couldn't get passed 1-3 so I turned it off and didn't play it until today. DAMN IT HAS GREAT ANIMATION !!!!

[VinnyT]

Sorry, but I claimed Mazin Saga.....

Aww hell, you take it. I probably wouldn't do it justice anyway.

Thanks Vinny, sorry, how long ago did you claim Mazin saga ?

[sega fan]

1/4 the way done with my 3 Ninjas review. Done with reviewing the music, now halfway done with gameplay. Still need to view Premise, my past with this game, etc.

[vintagegamecrazy]

Sega Fan I can't imagine that you'll say too many nice things about 3 ninjas.

[sega fan]

It's okay, alot of people absolutly thrash 3 ninjas, I'm not going to give my opinions here and screw over my article, and I like to be un-biased and not too one-sided when I review games.

[sega fan]

3 Ninjas review - DONE and proofread, being sent tommorrow after my screenshots are taken. Now onto Mazin' Saga !

[sega fan]

Did you get my reviews ? Do I need to re-send ? Any problems ? I don't have AIM/MSN But feel free to reach me any other way, I don't have my own computer ( but that might change in a few months). Street Fighter 4 is out here pretty quick and thought of my submitted retrospect. Plus, with the influx of articles coming up one after the other, I'm wondering if mine were bad/missing/etc. No worries, I just wonder, I'm working on the reviews I promised a month ago but I'm worried that if I send them, after weeks of work, they'll never be shown. Thanks for helping me in the past, thanks for responding to this thread (if you do), have a good day. :)

[Melf]

I got them, and I should have your Stories article ready for Tuesday. It didn't go up sooner because I wanted to put some distance between it and the Stories article that just went up.

We need to chat about the SF2 article though. I'm not sure how it would work as a Side-by-Side feature, as it would really have to be in-depth on all three systems included. Also, it's really hard to find assets (screen shots, etc.) for the plug-'n-play one.

If anything, we could rework it into a Hands-On about the PnP one, as it would use considerably fewer assets than a SbS.

[sega fan]

Okay, I would post the SF2 article as is with no edits, I worked it into a way that non-tech savy people could understand, YET I tried to cater to the hardcore fighting fans. I tried to be balanced and un-biased on a both Genesis and PnP and the Hyper fighting port. Plus as far as screens go, The Genesis and PnP are the same thing, if you had a CE cartridge with a controller, AC and AV cables hanging out of it, the PnP would be it.

[sega fan]

Oh Whoops, I forgot to ask how you felt on it. (reasons in my last post)

[sega fan]

I had to re-send my "Stories" and it's in Ken's inbox. Enjoy.

[sega fan]

3 Ninjas sent in to you. Pictures within 5 days.

Re-sent my Stories article

Screens for SF2 same time as 3 ninjas.

[Melf]

You can attach the screen shots to your email.

[sega fan]

Submitting My revew through the site, then posting my Pics here, 3 ninjas pictures. Sorry.

You may notice, they may be lower quality. But This is because it's running on A Blank Tape recording of a CDX and taken from a ditital video camera. Plus I think it adds to the charm. Remeber stuff like in Nintendo Power when they'd talk about surfaced pics of the Goldeneye Beta, and they looked like some kid my age took them in a dark garage with an RF TV and N64 setup with a Kodak disposable camera stacked on VHS tapes to get the camera level.

EXAMPLE (S) of what I mean by 90's Nintendo Power quality:

Once agin, I apoligize.

[VinnyT]

I don't think those pictures will be useful.

[Aarzak]

Kega Fusion.

[sega fan]

I don't think those pictures will be useful.

Sorry to disagree, 3 Ninjas is a game you really can't take proper screens of in Hi-def or otherwise. Everything is so spread out, and not much to take screens of. Try it on emulator and try to take pictures and see what I mean.

[The Sports Guy]

If you are having trouble getting screen pics, then either A) just emulate the game and freeze the screen (i use apple key + F) or B) Let ken do it.

Ive submitted how many reviews and probably never given him any screen shots.
