It's November 1st, and that can only mean that it's time for another RGT Nostalgia Society!! Here we all choose a game together, then play along over the course of a month and see what we think of it and how many of us can reach the end before the month is up. This month: PEPSIMAN on PS1

This is a constant-runner/arcade game where you have to try and make it to the end of the stage by dodging various hilarious obstacles and characters to reach that sweet, sweet Pepsi. We're all going to be Pepsi-Co's bitches after this, aren't we?

Grab your favourite emulator, or some real hardware if you're feeling fancy, and play along.

Seems like another great month for finishing if you're into shorted games. From what I can tell this thing is like a 2 hour time investement.

Man, I just came here to say the same thing. Holy sh*t snacks Pepsiman! I thought my emulator was defaulting to double speed or something

Man, I'm about to go bust my head against Vagrant Story again. This game is hard for being so simple. I'm stuck on 1-3 i hate running games with perspectives like that.

I'm stuck on 0-0 cus the translated version of the game crashes in my emulator -_-

Might have to go with the untranslated rom instead.

Managed to make it to 2-2 before hitting a game over. Kind of weird that you can only save if you lose lmao

Also heads up:

Forward+Square = run faster
Back+Square = slows you down

You'll need both to make it over a lot of these obstacles, especially as you reach stage 2 onwards.
