    Default Loved Snatcher, should I get Rise of the Dragon?

    Should I? I absolutely adored Snatcher and am wanting a new drug. Will this game suffice? What do you guys think about this title?

    It's good, but not great as Snatcher.

    Snatcher is the best of the bunch.

    Rise of the Dragon is a decent game and should adequately satisfy your need for Sega CD graphic adventure. Get it!

    As Fighter17 stated, it is not as great as Snatcher, but a good game none the less.

    Snatcher lasts awhile; Rise of the Dragon you'll have done in a few hours, but that shouldn't stop you. It's a really cool, really fun game. They don't make 'em quite like that anymore. Similar cyberpunk theme, but more Americanized.

    Is that game any good? Never heard of it. I tried to do a little research but failed to find much background on it. Does it have as compelling of a story as Snatcher. I'm kind of thinking that game is just a one of a kind.

    Oh yes, I saw that as well when that first released, and I am absolutely stoked for it. However, it'll be awhile so I will have to be patient.

    "A scantily clad woman dances on the bar nearby."

    ...dialogue like that still cracks me up, not so much what is said but how the guy said it. The game originally came out on the PC and is within the Cyberpunk sub genre of Sci-Fi, borrowing more from the William Gibson influences versus Blade Runner as SNATCHER did. After SNATCHER came out however, "Rise of the Dragon" just seemed lame in comparison. I still think the PC version is the best but the SEGA CD one is good enough. I'm still personally trying to sort my feelings if I prefer Rise of the Dragons over FASA's ShadowRun but both are good games and should be in a gamer's library. Can't really go wrong.
