That's one more game I probably will never own, eBay prices circle a bit under 200 €. Do they make repros for PAL megadrives...? Alien Soldier kicks all kinds of ass, though. |

Alien Soldier kicks all kinds of ass, though. --- End quote --- Being that they released it in PAL I've never seen a PAL repro and doubt anyone does. However, you could easily mod your MD to play NTSC games and get the US repro for about $45. That's what I'm going to do so I can play Zero Wing. |

I have never seen Alien Soldier. I know you said it is PAL, but is there no USA version? |

A quick check reveals that it was released on something called Sega Channel which I guess was kind of a precursor to Steam? It was one of those late console releases and of limited amounts released so it's kind of rare these days. Excellent game, though. Also, Polygon grossly overestimates my modding abilities if he thinks that modding a MD is "easily" done for me... (in reality I could ask if any of my friends can do it.) |

However, like other games such as Mega Man the Wily Wars, it could be played on the short lived Sega Channel. --- Quote from: Azazell0 on June 18, 2013, 02:16:50 PM ---Also, Polygon grossly overestimates my modding abilities if he thinks that modding a MD is "easily" done for me...

It would still cost you well under half of $200. |
