>there's bonus trailers in grabbed by the ghoulies for xbox
>they're all for sports games and the fucking xsn sports network
I really want to meet the person who bought and enjoyed both these games
>>
RalliSport Challenge 2 and Amped 2 are both XSN games. Microsoft really wanted for it to become a thing.
>>

I played both, but rallisport challenge 2 is the one I love the most visuals were impressive, same goes for controls and gameplay.
>>
>>11991549
I didn't buy them, I emulated. but MS Links is probably THE golf sim. it blew Tiger Woods out of the water, it's just nobody knew about it because it was an Xbox exclusive.
>>
>>11992236
>I emulated
I thought Xbox emulation was still ass
>>
>>11992241
grabbed by the ghoulies is on Rare Replay. Links has a PC port. I was exaggerating.
>>
>>11991549
This is such an obscure thing to make a thread of and yet it resonates with me whole heartedly.

>links 2004
>amped 2
>nba inside drive 2004
>a trailer for xsn sports
I believe that was the entire lineup for XSN too
Did Xbox not have enough E-rated games that would fit alongside Ghoulies?

Also if you're on 360 and try to go back into Ghoulies it crashes and says "this game is not compatible"
Thanks Steve

>>11991549
How the fuck were they allowed to put the words "Donkey Kong Country" on the box of an Xbox game?

I recently bought Ghoulies before finding out it has a save corruption bug on 360. How rare is it? Like, "never play without backing up" level of frequent?
>>
>>11992536
Every first party OG xbox release features a demos section which showcases other releases. Blinx has a trailer for a very early version of Psychonauts before Microsoft dropped Double Fine as their publisher.

I've only had it once but it pissed me off because I was at the final boss
Oh well it gives me a reason to replay

Used to draw so much porn of this game back in the day.
>>
>>11992662
Go on, post them.

>>11992662
Share, i won't judge.

Grabbed by the Ghoulies has that classic Rare thing where everyone remembers the first hour or so, which is perfectly fun and charming, and everyone forgets the absolute slog of tedious, frustrating and half-baked bullshit that makes up the other 90% of the game. Really dreadful experience.

Ghoulies, or Links 2004?
I think I'm being silently judged by some of my friends for saying I'd let Ms. Buffbrass buff my brass

>chapter 3 scene 32 krackpot's lab
This must be what being gangraped feels like

Golf really is sexy

Now that I see people describe this as Xbox's Luigi's Mansion, I'm very curious to play it and see how it compares. I thought it was just a lame horror themed hack and slash.
>>
>>11992560
You can use the name of other products for marketing so long as you make it clear it’s not that product
>>
>>11993302
Whoever said it was a hack and slash is a fucking retard
Ghoulies is more like a beat em up if anything, but even that I wouldn't say is a great description, it's a very unique game
I would say it's somewhat like old British computer games like Jet Set Willie where each level is one room and you muck around it, but I'm not sure even that's a good comparison
You control with the left stick and attack with the right, sometimes there's shit you can pick up and use
I've heard people call it repetitive but I never get tired of it, maybe I'm psychotic
Gets absurdly difficult at the end like most Rare games, probably so they can make more money on rentals or to sell strategy guides

The final 3 scenes (the lab, the door fight & final boss) are some of the most unfun things I have ever played, and without saying too much it does that Rareware thing where the final boss is in multiple phases and if you die you have to start all over
It was alright in DKC1-3 and the Banjo games but Ghoulies is more on the DK64 side where it's more of a test of your patience than your skill
He's also either a retard or a literal nonce

>krackpot's lab

Yea mate just smash every object in the room looking for the keys while three large enemies follow you around oh also you're not allowed to kill the skeletons so go ahead and purposefully play badly so that the grim reaper spawns in and you can use its retarded janky pathfinding to hopefully use it to kill the skeletons when the AI finally behaves on your 10th attempt.

Shitty fucking game and Rare are right to be ashamed of it.
