Although some people think they lick, I though all they were all cool
Double Switch, Night Trap, Ground Zero Texas, Tomcat Alley, I even
liked Sewer Shark. It's going to be cool when Corpse Killer, Slam City
and Samurai Showdown come out. Anybody know any other's coming out
soon?

Check out "Loadstar" and "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs." Both have the best
full screen FMV ever seen on the Sega CD. They both came out recently and
should be available at places like Software Etc. or Electronics Boutique.

Yeah, I'm kind of a closet fan of those myself (as he tells everyone on
the UseNet)... I didn't buy any though (Night Trap, almost!). Well,
back then I didn't have a computer (when those were released), so I
thought the whole FMV thing was the stuff. FMV gameplay has gotten
better in a few games ("Tomcat","Ground 0"). Hopefully the "Farhenheit"
and "Midnight Raiders" games will really impress.

Loadstar has really, really nice Sega CD FMV -- full screen! However,
the gameplay is weak. You're targeting things with a cursor
(bullets that go slightly faster than your cursor, I think!) and at the
same time directing your vehicle at junction points! It's too easy to
mess up... at least for me. I'd like to see the ending of the game (cool
intro, heh), but it was just too hard for me.
