Write your reply.

assistant: Recently I purchased a used Sega with games for $75, to keep my children
off my computer.  Unfortunately now DAD (that's me) has been lured into
this puzzle/action game called "Flashback". :)  I am on level 7 and I am
trying to figure it out.  The password is "INCBIN" and I have succeeded in
destroying the tempory computer brain, traveled down the elevator to the
throbbing brain hanging from the ceiling and shot several of the morphic
guards that come down from the ceiling.  What do I do next?  I am assuming
I am supposed to set off the atomic charge, but how?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian.

yeah, I like Misutrugi, he is of course the best guy in the game due to
he is the Ryu ninja clone who in every fighting game is the best all
around.  But my most fun guy is Siegfried.  Plus, I dont think that
Cervantes is bad either.

Write your reply.

assistant: Here it is how to play as Noob Saibot,
Start a two player game and choose Kano.
Then at the beginning of the round hold HP, LP, Block, and LK and if on the
left joystick hold left and if on the right hold right.  I think.
THe only move I know of is his teleport which is D,U.
He comes up from under you and throws you like Cyraxes air throw.
It may be U,D I forget.
He also has a force ball.
If you find anything let me know.

assistant: Hahah, well this mall of mine is about a 30-45 minute drive up to
Murdock, some city north of my own.  I have a local arcade place called
Pelican Pete
's Playland, and they used to get good games all the time until the new
3-D games came out.  They do not have one 3-D fighting game or sports.
They do have games like Rave Racer and Cruisin USA but they are old.
The fighting games there are only Killer Instinct one, and UMK3, plus
WWF wrestlemania.  Soul Edge is about an hour's drive at a big arcade
place.  Have you ever been to Universal Studios?? Pretty close to you.
I am only a 3 hours drive away from it and your probably even less.  I
bet they held some of the Soul Edge tourney there.  Because at Univ.
Studios, they have a huge arcade filled with only Namco games.  Alpine
Racer, Soul Edge, Ridge/Rave racer, every Namco game ever made on
arcades is there.  It's like a movie theater with the sign saying
NAMCO.  It
 is right next to the Jaws ride if you ever go there.

company on their side.  The shuttle will reduce tax-payers money, fuel
costs, longer missions, and more efficient equipment.  I heard though
the same thing you did.

Write your reply.

assistant: Well i agree upon your reactions when it comes to games that used
to be our favorites back when 286's were popular.  Now i guess since i
am not one of those millions of people that decided to go with the flow
to buy new computers and get more power.  Where now more complex and
exciting games are coming out.  It's just a real shame that the software
companies had to take this buy this and buy that role.  Where if you
want to play this or that, you must buy a better machine to run it.  And
i really missed those days back where software companies placed in the
installation programs of great games tons of options to set up the game
for your computer.  So games fora 386 and 486 can also be played on a
286 through configuring the game.  But, they don't do that anymore
because of costs and that is a real shame.  Since not everyone can
afford a new computer.  My reason is that i am to lazy to go out there
and work my butt off to make enough money for a new computer.  I guess i
am out of touch or something.  But, i only look for 286 games since it's
all i have to enjoy anything that is known to be a part of the gaming
experience.  If you got any good 286 classic air craft simulation games
or racing simulations.  I sure would greatly appreciate it if you were
able to send me those programs.  But we should discuss it first before
you send them out since i can decide which ones i don't have.

Wow, this brings me back.  This has got to be my all time favorite sega
game.  Anyway, here's what you do.  While you are killing the aliens,
get a shot in on the brain once in a while, until it's dead.  Then, head
forward and you should come to an elevator.  Now if I remember
correctly, something should tell you to put the bomb on the elevator,
and lower the elevator.  One the bomb goes off, run back to the space
ship.
Boy, I may have to see if I can find this game used...
