Tanukitsune Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 I must confess that I haven't played it yet, since it just got in the mail but... Wasn't it supposed to come with PuliRula? Well, it's not in here.... I sure hope there is a 3rd compilation with the game... But still, Bubble Symphony is "teh win"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Which version did you get? Heard that the PS2 and Xbox versions have slightly different game list as an incentive to make you buy both. Sure hope they're successful in finding a US publisher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaggy the Atarian Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 I had no idea the second one was out already. Time to find a list of those games... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanukitsune Posted April 3, 2006 Author Share Posted April 3, 2006 The PC version, which has the same as the Xbox one... It seems the PS2 has less games... I finally played it a little.... Space Invaders 95 is awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Invaders 95 is awesome! Cool, so either way I'll be covered. I might go for the Xbox version on this one. It's great to see Dungeon Magic on the list, that's one I've wanted to play for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanukitsune Posted April 6, 2006 Author Share Posted April 6, 2006 GAH! I'm not playing anymore until they release a patch! It crashed THREE times playing Bonze Adventure.... At the FINAL BATLLE... It also crashed while playing Elevator Action Returns.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PC I'm guessing if it could use a patch) Yes, the PC one, it crashes each time I die fighting the final boss, and I doubt it's my PCs fault, tech support says they are working on it...

SHAGOHOD X99 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Here we are on TAITO LEGENDS 2 and still no L.S.A. Squad (Storming Party) or Ninja Warriors! I honestly don't know what Taito is smoking to leave off two of their coolest games off these compiler discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DamonicFury Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Here we are on TAITO LEGENDS 2 and stillno L.S.A. Squad (Storming Party) or Ninja Warriors! I honestly don't know what Taito is smoking to leave off two of their coolest games off these compiler discs. They are also still missing Space Dungeon (a HUGE personal favorite!), all the Arkanoid games, all the Double Dragon games, and Chase HQ. Hopefully, there will be a Taito Legends 3 that contains the rest of their classics! (And of course, a U.S. release for Legends 2!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanukitsune Posted May 9, 2006 Author Share Posted May 9, 2006 Has anyone played and beaten Bonze Adventure? They finally patched the game, and even though I find the game easy, the boss were the game crashes seems undefeatable! I used up all the special moves and he was still alive, I tried to hit and survive as long as possible, but he just WON'T DIE! So either the final boss is way too hard, or the patch did something weird? I noticed the candle timer never seemed to move either...

BrianC Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 all the Double Dragon games Double Dragon is Technos, not Taito. Taito only distributed the arcade game in the US. Taito didn't design Double Dragon, nor do they own the rights to it. Double Dragon is owned by a company named Million which is made up of former Technos employees.

+DamonicFury Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Finally gave up on waiting for a US release and purchased Taito Legends 2 off of Ebay (for PC). Once again, it's a very nice release, and once again they have MAME compatible ROM folders! (Not sure it's one hundred percent legally kosher to use those files with MAME, but they made no attempt to hide, rename, or encrypt the files, so it's hard to imagine they were that would be strongly opposed to their use in that way by paying customers.)

Hopefully, there will be a Taito Legends 3 that contains the rest of their classics! (And of course, a U.S. release for Legends 2!) I read an interview a while back with a guy who works for the game developer/publisher and he addressed both Arkanoid and Chase HQ. He said that Taito refused to license Arkanoid for inclusion on the Legends compilations. He wasn't sure exactly why, but he believed it involved legal issues with other companies like Atari and Nintendo over similar ball and paddle games (Breakout and Alleyway, respectively). Chase HQ will not be included due to licensing issues with various car manufacturers (namely Ferrari and Lamborghini) and the high costs associated with renewing such licenses.

Tempest Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Was Arkanoid created by Taito and just licensed to Romstar or was it the other way around? Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jess Ragan Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm pretty sure Arkanoid was created by Taito. Romstar was just an arcade game distributor; they also brought some of Capcom's early coin-ops to the United States. JR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm sad that there hasn't been any kind of announcement for a second U.S. Taito compilation. Gunlock, Raystorm, Raycrisis, and G-Darius all on one disc would be mega-sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
