Message: [QUOTE="BrawlMan, post: 414729, member: 908684"] [LIST] [*]Blazing Chrome [*]Neon Inferno [*]Terminator 2D: Fate [*]Super Cyborg [/LIST] All of them and more do something different from Contra that works for them. There are a lot of those, yet most of them are doing well or great with their target audience and beyond. So not much doom and gloom there. [LIST] [*][I]The TakeOver[/I] [*][I]Final Vendetta[/I] [*][I]Fight n' Rage[/I] [*][I]TMNT: Shredder's Revenge[/I] [*][I]Rushing Beat X[/I] [*][I]Dancin Divas[/I] [*][I]Double Dragon Gaiden[/I] [*][I]Double Dragon Revive[/I] [*][I]Ninja Saviors[/I] [*][I]Final Knight[/I] [/LIST] Nearly all of these games I listed play completely differently from [I]Streets of Rage[/I], or only take one or two aspects from [I]Streets of Rage 3[/I], and do their own thing ([I]The TakeOver, Final Vendetta, [/I]and [I]Fight n' Rage[/I]). I know [I]RBX [/I]ain't out yet, and the franchise itself was copying both [I]SOR [/I]and [I]Final Fight[/I] back in the 90s, but this game plays nothing like [I]SOR4[/I], nor the other games in the [I]Streets of Rage[/I] franchise. Play the demo on Steam. [I]Dancin Divas[/I] is basically [I]Ninja Baseball Batman [/I]visually, but more Tex Avery style, and plays only somewhat similarly to [I]NBB[/I]. Remember what we talked about? Not as bad, nor as big as a problem as you think the indie circle. Drop the cynicism and pessimism. This generation could've have been better, yet I got plenty of the games I wanted and more. I can't speak for everyone and their own expectations nor feelings, but I don't regret the time I have or had with these games. Especially on the indie side. Well, the AAA(A) should really learn to tone it down on the budgets and diminishing returns. So far, Capcom and Nintendo gets this right on consistent basis and learn not everything needs a $100+ million budget. And Capcom had to relearn that lesson after 7th generation and part way into 8th generation. They, Nintendo, Sega, and a few others actually bother to make smaller budget games now or again.
