Gunman Clive - Beat the game in Normal with Clive. This is a pretty fun, but short, Mega Man-style run & gun . Sadly it doesn't support any non-X360 controllers, even with a xinput emulator, so I have to use the keyboard; this surely makes the game harder, and a bit less fun. Otherwise this is a pretty good game, though. I love the wild west music, it's great! And the gameplay and level designs are good too. I just wish there was more to the game, it's over too soon -- the first time through the game will take an hour, maybe two at most. There is a harder mode, but it just gives you half health. Otherwise there's just Duck mode, which is amusing but doesn't add too much.

Plasma Sword -- This is an okay, but not great, 3d fighting game. If it was from someone else it'd be good, but for Capcom, this is a bit disappointing; Rival Schools looks and plays far better than this! The time between the two games sure was used well, that game looks a LOT better than this, and plays even better than that. Still, this is an amusing little game. It's too easy on the default setting though -- once I figured out the controls (ie, found the super-attack command, which is L or A+X), I didn't lose any matches; even beat the boss first try. Yeah. Also, this game is a sequel to Star Gladiator (PS1, I believe), a game I don't have and have never played, so the story doesn't make a lot of sense. Still, it's simple and fun enough that I'll certainly play the game some more. It's an average at best game, though.
