Ive heard of Horse The Band and Megadriver. Megadriver doesn't really fit the bill. Now Hadouken! kicks some serious ass. I'm sold there.

Since music is art, then this apply's to this forum I believe. I'm actually a part of the backing band of ZUNK. http://www.myspace.com/ZunkProductions. Zak the guy who has written this fine music is a big fan of old school Cart game consoles. Musically, Streets Of Rage is a big influence that I've picked out from listening to and learning to play for live performances. Also most people who are VG music geeks, know of Machinae Supremacy. It's awesome hearing original music that is spawned from a love of videogames. Anyone else know of bands that claim VG influence and write original material more often than doing instrumental re-hashings of VG tracks?

Yeah, I lurk from time to time. If you remember the Ye'Ol Moogle Cavern. I was/am Falcon The Echidna. I worked on some stuff with Manic Team. Seeing what people are up to these days is my new past time. I still mess in CnC and MMF1.5 though, and I might complete a game that just has a series of levels with objectives. No story, just good times. Skip the jibber jabber and get to the good stuff. Gadgets, guns, and gore. Topped off with a soundtrack that one could do a number of deviant things to.

I saw this on page one of the threads. I didnt have to dig. Even if I had dug it out and brushed the cobwebs off, it may be helpful to someone surfing round to see it up top that may have otherwise over looked it.

Ive been messin with an engine for grenades / balls / barrels and such. This topic is becoming very helpful. *bookmark*

Ok heres another idea. I know not of Eggmans origin but... I know the "Origin" story lines have gone round in circles many a time, and this may make some sense. Imagin Egman as a young fellow. Slim and trim in some sort of para/military senario. Then the Run & gun, Metal Slug aspect would be in order. Maybe have the plot line run in the direction of completing the neccesary objectives required to become the Eggman we all know. Or... As again... slim and trim, working as a robotics engineer / doc / scientist in some sort of military research facility. You could go in a puzzle game direction there. Origins are a very successful take on a character's story line.

Awesome demo! I like the difference in feel of each character. Its really nice.
