New: 1168 - Blackthorne (U)

Yes this game is EXCELLENT.... A VERY NOSTALGIC GAME........ WOW I PLAYED ON MY 386

my guess if it has ben downgraded its because of the screen hight issue with the GBA. true the width is the same as a tv but the hight is not, so sprites may have to be scaled down if you want the overall effect and field of view visible.

Kicked @ss on the Amiga, hopefully history will repeat itself.

May have to check this out. Flashback was one of my favorite games back in the Genesis days and the first one to be 16mb if I'm not mistaken.

Ain't that true!!

 

[iceman9414]

it seems like a lot of you like the game...any of you gonna download it?

This game has been censored compared to the PC Version... as i remember there was some blood in it, and now we have no blood, but it's still a cool game and it gives me good memories while playing

 

[Myke]

how long is this game...reminds me of prince of persia but in a more shotgun pumping kind of a way

 

[stivsama]

Is it just me, or is this game a lil to bright for the theme? I understand that the regular gba has "lighting" issues.. But Blackthorne's sposed to be, well.. you know.. dark.. The colors feel washed out too.. not enough detail.. ack! dumb ports!

All i can see for this release is just the novelty of making it portable and nothing else.. I'll just stick with the SNES version then, thank you very much..

BTW, just gotta love that no-look, shoot-the-back move that can be executed with only a press of a button..

 

[Elrinth]

Yes, yes.. we know what it is, that it's cool, that it's a freaky remake, for crying out loud..

question is.. what's new?Â

It is not a remake.. It's a simple port with downgraded graphics.

I missed this game for the SNES. Forgive my ignorance, then, but having not played it yet, would anyone out there be willing to give a brief synopsis of the plot? Thanks. If it's like Flashback, I'm thinking I'll like it, but more of a description would be appreciated.

Thanks again!

It's good to see SNES games being re-released for the generation of gamers that missed out.

 

[DBM]

i liked this game very much. it was violent, because of the slaves hangin on the wall (you could shoot them)

 

[burndick]

Yeah, i have played it in my 3x86, but i never finished it i hope this time i will do it. But i miss the blood, the blood it was funny, when you shoot someone it splits to the wall. (beautifull!!!).

 

[cYb]

oh, sprites are ugly ...

 

[pikachucrackpipe]

Not everyone has a SNES... Khm... BLACKTHOOORNE!!!

(Oh my, my first "wai-wai" post...)

yeah an snes is like 10 bucks on ebay

 

[TonyCool]

IT HAS AWFUL GRAPHICS!

I can't believe, in an old computer, a 386, it was running at 320x200 at 256 colors, and it was very good, but now, with GBA's power and 32.000 simultaneous colors the graphics are awful. I agree to scale down the graphics, to fit in the GBA's screen (although they don't fit completly, you can scroll up and down the screen). But I think the conversion team MADE A BAD JOB!

 

[THE FROZEN]

All the Blizzard GBA ports have those darn annoying graphics, Blizzard know it, and they don't care

 

[Vizenzo]

I played it and i say that IS THE WORST CONVERSION THAT I HAD SEEN ON MY LIFE.... ARGHHHHHHHHHHH

NO MORE CONVERSIONS OF SH**
