The ALT tags are also done, for anyone that cares.

Why is invinciblity Powder called Teleport Powder? That's just plain retarded.

To complicate things further, the game manual says the powder makes Alex invisible.

QFT


Thou, because I am wroth, be not dismayed, for I shall win the strife, whoever circle round within for the defence. This their insolence is not new, for of old they used it at a less secret gate, which still is found without a bolt. Above it thou didst see the dead inscription; and already on this side of it
descends the steep, passing without escort through the circles,
One such that by him the city shall be opened to us.

I've never heard of this game, but any article that quotes Slaughter lyrics is top-notch in my book.

Nice article. Adventure Island sure ripped that game off.

Just a suggestion, but page divisions might make it a little nicer to read. Your call at any rate.

I had originally planned to split it into two pages. Most two page articles, I knew exactly where I wanted the split to be and I did it as two pages from the beginning.

This one, I decided to do as one page, then split, and by the time I was done, I was too lazy to split it. But yeah, I probably should split it.

Powder.... um remember

I'm so bananas I'm showing up to your open casket,
to fill it up with explosive gases,
and close it back,
with a lit match in it,
while I sit back, and just hope it catches.

Blow you to fragments,
laugh,
roll you, and smoke the ashes.

I love the Alex Kidd series (even the Genesis game everyone shits on), and I beat this game on a SMS emulator when I was 12. Great game, great article.

The main complaints against it were that the jump kick sucked, the platforming was fucky, and the game just looked ugly.

I actually don't know. I just thought it was awesome.

May I suggest adding a link to this extension somewhere on the site (besides here, of course)? It will allow Firefox users to also see the alt tags. I'm using it right now, and it works great.

And yes, I already complained to Mozilla. They won't use the ALT tag for screentips, but there may be hope for getting the TITLE tag to support more than 100 characters. Unfortunately, if Syd used both, IE would display the incorrect TITLE tag.

...The Article was cool and all (I'd actually played the game prior to the article, and it's not bad, either [If not a little weird]), but the line about the 'Master' System being unpopular with black people was completely unnecessary, even by sarcasm standards...


Was I supposed to put something here?
