Lol that should be your 'live' avatar really !

[CD AGES]

Lol! Accel rocks no doubt, but Momo (I'm my eyes) is the greatest fighting game character ever created I'm still waiting for her to appear in another capcom crossover title lol!

Managed to get this game down from my attic and played using the lightgun. Just need to process the movie for YT but that can't happen until tomorrow evening. In the meantime I've managed a screen shot:



Playing HOTD2 on DC takes me back to Christmas '98 when the game arrived in my local Sega Park along with Star Wars Trilogy Arcade. They used to have this game right at the entrance and if you were a good player, you could really draw crowds. Downside is that you'd get people joining in expecting you to 'carry' them through the game but all HOTD coin-ops need both players to be good, not just one.

That's fine. Plenty of time. I see you managed to save all 5 civilians. I just missed the one after the well. You ended with the same amount of life left though. I almost had a perfect run but I missed on rescue and lost a couple lives at the end boss. CD "Turbo Fingers" AGES would have had a perfect run but he missed one rescue as well.

Has anyone ever been able to kill the zombie at 1:01 in CD AGES YouTube clip before he kills the guy that says he doesn't want to die?...

I purposesly let that dude die! I find it amusing to see that old dude die by way of zombie foot anal LOL!

Elma: No, that dude is destined to die. You can't ever spare to save his life no matter how fast. "I don't wanna die", ah but you must!

Yeah, as CD AGES mentioned, it's impossible to save him. It doesn't even let you shoot until after the zombie kills him. If you watch either of the videos you'll notice the aiming reticule doesn't show up until after the guy dies.

hmm I hadn't thought it worth attempting this without being able to use the lightgun but I'm tempted to try it now. Do you have to have the light gun in or does it work ok with just the normal DC controller?

It works fine with the regular controller. You just move around the aiming reticule with the analog stick and shoot with the R trigger.
