: I saw this title in EB today, and this is in an area that has yet to see
: DARIUS GAIDEN.
: I've heard lots about the import version of CK2. So what are your
: thoughts on SoA's version?
I think CK2 should be great, leagues beyond CK1 (not the fragrance). But
I'd like to talk about something else, but related. Babbage's, and I
would assume Software Etc. (same company) are NOT CARRYING CLOCKWORK
KNIGHT 2!! Nor Darius Gaiden!!! CK2 and DG were on our release schedule
for months, and the day they are supposed to come out, they were ripped
from release. I may have to quit my job and get one at EB's. This is an
atrocity. We got ten copies of Defcon 5, but not the good titles.
Jupiter Strike, Quarterback Attack, Last Gladiators, Double Switch, the
list goes on and on. And Babbage's sees that they are not selling these
games, so they just up and decide to not get the GOOD games? The games
that WILL sell. I have not sold ONE copy of any of the bad games I
mentioned, but I've had at least a dozen people asking for the good
games. Je ne comprend pas. I was thinking of quiting, maybe I just
should. In fact, as a first step, I urge everyone who would enjoy DG and
CK2 to boycott all Babbage's and Software Etc's until they get their
heads on straight.
Thanks,
---John

Boycotting them really won't help all that much... it will just mean
that they stop selling Saturn games alltogether and then deceide to
take up more shelve space with PSX games... They won't lose money by
doing this, they will just in all likelyhood start selling more PSX
systems...

Ouch! It's only $45.99 at Best Buy and $45 at Tronix (where I purchased mine).

****Unless they have changed it from the import all you do is keep hitting
the leopard and jump over it before it pushes you against the wall... then
start smacking it again as it pushes you back and jump over it again...
repeat ad nauseum... very easy. Then simply run from the bat... it will
miss you with the ball pick it up and bean it.
To me the only challenge of this game was to get all four cards at every
level to make sure I had seen everything. Only the final slippery
clocktower is challenging. The rest was kinda relaxing... good for me as I
am pretty lame with the more difficult platform games. Simply pick up
things and throw them to nail multiple opponents to pick up extra lives...
you don't need any codes with this game except maybe to get past the final
level.

Great game... all hi-res with unbelievable art and the 3D effect is *very* cool.
