Was the FMV games, Crime Patrol and Drug Wars ever ported to the SCD? I remember playing them on PC years ago and enjoying them. I'd like to get them on a console. I read that a Wii port was to be made similar to the Mad Dog trilogy, but for whatever reason, it never did come out.

AFAIK Crime Patrol only got a SCD port.

Crime Patrol was ported to Sega CD and 3DO.
Drug Wars was ported only to the 3DO.

Another great game. Significantly improved over the Genesis version and, thank God, with save feature.

Crap, I should have worded my post better. I meant to say that Crime Patrol was the only one in the series to see a Sega CD release.

[Barone]

I thought that you meant that, but I just felt the need to make it clear.

Is Crime Patrol a rare title? I see on Ebay there is one copy at $100!! I didn't see it listed on Amazon; Half.com doesn't have any in stock.

Oh, that's okay.

Yes, it's pretty hard to come by and one of the rarer games to locate for the Sega CD. I actually have a copy but haven't gotten a chance to play it yet since it's sealed and I can't bring myself to open it

In the Mad Dog II insert they talk about Crime Patrol, Drug Wars and one final title that looks ridiculous: Space Pirates. Space Pirates is the one that I really want to try because of high amount of sheer insanity in the screenshots, but I'd have to find it on the 3DO.

If you like cheesy FMV goodness, Prize Fighter is a must. The scenes between matches and knockdowns are pretty funny.



Like Goldenband recommended, Tomcat Alley is a pretty good FMV game as well.

I had no idea there were so many Sega CD games worth collecting!

I think the Sega CD is highly underrated to be honest, a lot of people just write it off as being a ton of crappy FMV games, but there are a lot of really fun and unique titles on it.

[Barone]

^Exactly.

it's the most underrated system I've ever come across.
