Marathon Gaming Part 2

Posted by Dodongo on Tuesday, July 29, 2003

Ah well, the laundry has broken my otherwise glorious run at finishing Lost Vikings 2 on top of finishing Ghost Recon today. I have only 2 more levels to go, so tomorrow it will eat my bomb. These levels are getting mighty hard and in terms of strategy and difficulty, this game blows Ghost Recon away. Then again, Blizzard are no slouches in this category, even back in the SNES days!

Can you flesh that one out a bit. Ghost Recon is some solid gaming. Why is Vikings better?

p.s. Screenshot of Viking’s graphics looks like a cartoon…along the lines of Dragon’s Lair…is the whole video game done in this format?

Yeah, it’s all cartoon - sort of like Battletoads.

I think LV2 is more difficult than Recon on a strategic level. It wasn’t that hard to figure out how you needed to beat each level of Recon, but the execution could be difficult sometimes. With LV2, it’s harder to figure out what you need to do. I’m not saying LV2 is a better game and it’s not as engaging as Recon, but I think it’s more challenging.
