Yeah, the double edged SHMUP sword of getting power-ups, then losing them:) You will see what I mean, in THIS Video! I will come back to this, as it is a phenomenally well done fan made SHMUP, by the same makers of Flame Zapper!

It is almost ludicrous playing Gradius 3 on the real SNES hardware, with its terrible slowdown...But, slowdown can be construed as a set of training wheels, to help ya get through some crazy parts of games! Me, I don't want slowdown in games like Contra Force or Sonic Spinball. I want the full brunt of the challenge, whether meant or not, aside from hardware limitations:)

Which game have you played, that had such awful framerate or slowdown, it was game breaking! Me, Pirates of the Caribbean for PS3! It slowed down to like 11 FPS at times, whereas the 360 port was smooth as can be! Not that the game was exceptionally good, or anything. You could literally attack an enemy, and they crunched, with a delayed timing...enough for you to easily come in and subdue them. But, damn, those graphics were really pretty at the time. Still got the game in my collection! Many of those Xbox 360 games hold up SOOOO well, including Superman Returns and Burnout Revenge!

Thanks, as always, everyone...for your continued support!
