    Default A really bad MK ripoff...

    Anybody ever try "Tattoo Assassins" in Mame? It is somewhat of a ripoff of MK created by Data East back in the day most likely to compete with MK at the time. It never saw the light of day at the arcades however (prototype). Now THIS is why I really love Mame. To try games that NEVER hit the arcades is awesome. Even if they are crappy!

    Yeah, violent, sub-par games like Chiller can be enjoyed through MAME.

    Damn, man. I don't mean to trail off topic, but this is the sixth thread in a row that I've read with a comment by Sotenga. I think you need some fresh air, buddy.

    Just tried this one today....fuinniest...game...ever. The Nancy Karrigan parody has to be seen to be believed....The fatalities are simply priceless. That is, if you can stand it long enough to get that far.

    I'm REALLY afraid to touch this game. I've seen screenshots of it...

    TheRedEye, you are so right. I'm a post whore. I'm working on fixing that. I'm probably gonna go somewhere tomorrow. Where? The mall, probably, if I can tear myself away from Lament of Innocence. :wired:

    I actually was waiting for this to be ported to a console but it never went past the arcade proto stage. I still have the 4 page article on it from an old EGM2 mag back in 1995. It stated that this game has over 200 fatalities and some flatulent special attacks. One of my favorites is of course the nudality.
