    Such an original and engaging game. When I was a younger lad, I played it at my local Aladdin's Castle and eventually picked it up on the Genesis. Now I need to find it on the GB. Thanks for sharing and jogging my memory.

      That Genesis one is the sequel, Volfied, known as Ultimate Qix on the US (the game is also on the PS1 as Qix Neo, or Neo Qix, and on the PC Engine). Like Qix, it started life as an arcade game as well.

    Classic game it's a blast on an orginal gameboy or gameboy pocket with earbuds in.

    Alright now I already mentioned I don't really like Qix much in general, it's not because I think it's "bad" or something, I just never really found it to be that fun to me, which I have tried the GB version itself too at one point. Some games just don't do it for me. I'm not very good at it to be honest, kind of one reason I'm not so big on it but even then, just don't find it exciting, just frustrating mainly for the random nature as you mentioned that's all. Anyway, that aside I think for a conversion on the GameBoy, it's pretty good. Oh yeah, it's a unique game for sure, really and that is something I still have to give credit for too and do respect it for that. Good review Jim.

    I used to get absolutely shit faced drunk and play super gameboy, back in 2014 when I worked at Fedex Office. Then I went sober and will never drink a beer again. It's sure fun to think back though.

      Congrats on the sobriety! I tried doing this drunk and I always wound up worse than I normally am. Still a classic

    I tried playing Ultimate Qix on the Genesis and wondering just what the hell I was supposed to do, and not liking it because of how obnoxious the sound effects were. This one doesn't look like it has nearly as much on-screen, and the sound effects are nowhere near as intrusive.

    • @batmandx
      @batmandx 5 лет назад

      Zane Gandini definitely not, ultimate also has a port on the pc engine known as Volfied I’m trying to track down, hear it’s way less obnoxious sounding
