Sin and Punishment 2

BreakABone · 06-02-2009, 02:07 PM

One of the n64's underknown heroes (partially cuz never made it to America until Virtual Console)

I am definitely buying this. I've put a stupid amount of time into the Virtual Console version.

Typhoid · 06-02-2009, 10:09 PM

Never heard of it.

Not surprising since the original didn't make it out of Japan until Virtual Console like last year.

I knew about it because I use to speak with Gekko who was huge into importing at the time, and would always mention this game.

Any sort of info on what type of game it is?

The Germanator · 06-02-2009, 10:22 PM

I remember when the original was supposedly coming out for N64. It's by the guys who made Gunstar Heroes, right? They make some good shooters...

Man, I haven't played games in a while, but E3 brings back some of that giddiness that I used to have. How cheap are these consoles these days? I may just buy one.

Oh could have asked that.

It's a 3rd person on rails shooter/slasher.
It's a pretty awesome game, and since Phil has it I recommend you checking out.

I don't know, I think the Wii is still hovering around $250. But I'm not sure.

Yeah, Sin and Punishment is made by Treasure. They made Ikaruga as well as Astro Boy GBA and Wario World (which was awesome.) S&P2 will be a mix of a shooter and swordplay like BAB says. It's crazy wicked fun. The original still holds up to today.

In Holland Wii prices are finally dropping a bit, €225 or so, down from €250.
Try to find a good deal. Or maybe a used one if you're ok with that?

I've never played S&P1, but I've heard good stories about it. S&P2 is something the Wii desperately needs, some original SF action.

8 minutes of footage from the showfloor.

But the music they put over it is awful.

Ric · 06-07-2009, 12:03 AM

Dont tell me, it's coming out in Japan and we will not see it for about 10 years yes?

I thought the origional was great. For years I had to settle for a dirty rom on emulators until it finally came out on the virtual console where I downloaded it on it's first day. They must have finally realised there is a market for it so now we are getting a number 2, cool. Looking forward to it.

Now if only they would release those other N64 games I never had the chance to get. Star Wars Battle For Naboo and Indiana Jones And The Infernal Machine.

Anyway 5am here now and I have not slept, I think it's bed time

This may make me play my Wii.

Thanks to a certain website *cough PirateBay* I have every N64 game released in the US. Combined with a 360 controller (closest I can get to N64 without the hassle of finding a 64 to USB adapter and a 64 controller), and it's bliss. Granted, there are drawbacks but take what I get with the options provided.

Tried that, I have not found an emulator that can play those particular roms. Even when the roms are from different soures. I know this does not always mean the roms are bad as some have worked after emulator updates. I too use a 360 controller, does the job perfectly

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=89JWSSEO Project64 v 1.7 (best I've found to play most decently so far)

If you want the torrent link to what I got, let me know via a...private conversation
