Super Magnetic Neo

Post by gylippus »

Hey, I bought this game awhile back mainly for my kids. They wanted some platformer games and this seemed like a good choice. I am happy I bought it, because it is an all around great game. You play a little guy that basically has a magnet as a head. He was made by a scientist but the scientist was kidnapped by a weird baby. He has to travel through these bizarre levels to defeat the bad guy. I won't talk too much about the game because you can easily go over to youtube and see people playing it, but it is well worth picking up. It definitely is pretty difficult too. The levels aren't just a walk through and the bosses take a lot of practice. Another thing, this is a Dreamcast only game and it isn't super cheap. You can get a copy for around 20 bucks and up on eBay. Trust me, it is worth it.

Yup, nice game. Wouldn't call it a game for kids though. You really need to stay focussed on this one.

When my son was 3 he asked me to play every day so he can watch. Maybe the hardest test for me, since he wouldn't let me just quit a level... i had to suffer, sweat, become a MAN and finish the entire game.

Now my son is 10, he plays NEO by himself, much better than me and has already collected 9 of the 16 furniture pieces for Neo's room ;)

That's pretty awesome actually... :lol:

Hope he didn't make you do the same thing with games like Contra, Ghouls 'n Ghosts, etc... :lol:

I played this game, many months back, and I like it. :D
Yeah it's tough. Not an easy game at all. And I still have some more stages to complete.
I wish they make a sequel though.

Yeah I've heard this game is super hard and have never thought about getting it because of that. Do you really think it's worth it?
