What the hell?
It's another one of those new Sega CD games. Which is cool, I like that they're doing those. But this..... it looks exactly like Chu Chu Rocket. They didn't even leave any room to think it might not be a total rip-off, even the packaging and the logo for the title are a rip-off.
Who's lame idea was this? How are they not getting sued by Sega for such an extremely blatant rip-off? And, if you're going to rip off a puzzle game, why does it have to be one of the cheapest and most easily available puzzle games in existance?

Well, it IS oldergames.com. What were you expecting, a finished game?
I can imagine CGE now: the "creators" signing copies, promoting games like "Hell Hotel" and "Wolfenstein 3D", and releasing half-finished beta-stage Colecovision games at their table. People paying $30 for this deserve what's coming to them.
*clicks link, looks at the proposed cover*
And is that supposed to be a mouse? Ewww. I hope Sega nails them.

I was expecting another "canned right before release" game, actually.

lol. Coleco fans apparently dig those games. And what's wrong with Hell Hotel?
I am incredibly curious about that "Saturn Lost & Found" thing they had.

Indeed.
This release is really pathetic. I'd rather see a new Jaguar CD game than this sorry affair.

There's nothing wrong with Hell Hotel, it's just that it's been on their site for three whole years.
They're reputedly only selling 25 of those Saturn discs at the convention, lol. Still, even though most of the games might be badly-coded mini-games, this highly repetitive quote from their site sums it up:
"This will mark the first time that the Saturn has seen a release in many years! This will also be the first after-market Saturn production ever!"

They should just sell that Saturn disc for like ten bucks on their crappy site. They have no reason to hold it back like that, and I'm sure the ISO will be available soon anyway.
