You know, the Action 52, and Cheetahmen games are horrible, but the story behind them are pretty cool. The Game Chasers did a little bit about the games in their latest video.[/quote]I'd even say that the Cheetahmen themselves (plus their theme song) and how this piece of crap was created are perhaps the best things about Action 52, ever.
Talking about, A52's granddaddy on ZX Spectrum, Cassette 60, also had a ton of shitty games written exclusively for this, uh, multitape by a bunch of college students.- Title: Action 53 is now in development

still, seems interesting.- Title: Action 53 is now in development

I'll be honest, I'm also expecting something more valuable than tech demos and platform games to be released, so Alter Ego and Solar Wars still remain my favourites since they have that kind of polish NES games should have, IMNQHO.

It's not because it's gonna be a parody, it's more like a "we can do billions of times better" message to Active Enterprises's creation. After all, all the games here so far are taken from a NES coding competition that's being held since last year, so, to compensate the lack of specialized multicart for this event, A53 does the job.- Title: Action 53 is now in development

But yeah, this seems like an interesting compilation, I'll probably be giving it a go.- Title: Action 53 is now in development

If theses an Action 52, there SHOULD be an Adventure 52 and a Horror 52! :lol:[/quote]...and Racing 52 (this one would be a more realistic variant for a sequel, I guess)!
