Sega's Saturn sure had a load of retro games released for it from Sega themselves, Konami, Irem, Capcom and now Taito. To be honest, Taito's retro collection is in fact one of the best bar Sega's with titles such as Darius II and Elevator Action Returns (released by Ving) and now both Chase H.Q. and S.C.I. (Special Criminal Investigation). Chase H.Q. is really showing it's age now and looks quite poor compared to Sega's Out Run. I never remember it looking as bad as it does now. Let's forget about the looks for a minute and let me tell you that the Saturn port is arcade perfect and still great fun to play. Fans of the original arcade or home versions (not Master System) (-_-) will never forget that "Let's Go Mr. Driver" at the beginning of each round. S.C.I. still looks half decent for it's age thanks to the advanced scaling used in that game over Chase H.Q. I couldn't help but think that the controls were a little dodgy on the Saturn pad. I mean shooting and driving at the same time is not as easy as it sounds. Overall this is a good retro pack and quite a rare one at that. Well worth a purchase for any retro freak. |
