ITT: "Oh yeah, that happened."
Fucker everyone remembers this version, a lot even played it. And I see this all the damn time. is it just bait by this point?
I hate that game.
>>343842420
I liked it.
>>343843638
interesting... I meant to type HAVE, but typed out HATE.
It was also on PC but I wasn't able to get it to run.
>>343842420
1st one's alot better.
It became a "look at this engine" circlejerk with the gravity gun and too many gimmicky puzzels.
It could have been better.
>>343844595
Miami was a fun map.

Decay is great but you need to play it with a friend online on PC instead.

HL1 Dreamcast
Crazy Taxi GBA
>>343846290
Did HL actually come out on Dreamcast? There were a lot of games planned for it that never came out like Thief 1 and 2 and System Shock 2.
Not sure if this is official box art or not.
>>343846604
>>343846604
It never officially came out but you can download it now. Its controls are shit but I like how it draws the lambda on the controller
>>343846604
There is a leak of it and it runs absolutely fine. It has a bug where the save starts to take up more space than you can have with a VMU but I hear it was finished otherwise and I managed to get through about 6 hours of it without issue. Another fun one is Propeller Arena which was completely finished and has a leak as well. I do not believe there are any versions of Thief or SS2 available and I used to be pretty big in the Dreamcast scene.
>>343846604
The Dreamcast port was cancelled and it was converted into the PS2 version while the extra content for it became part of blue shift.
>>343845767
This is actually pretty fun
>>343847203
propeller arena is great, It's by AM2 so that's a given
>>343845767
Still better than 3.
>>343842420
i was hooked when i first played this.
How has it not been posted?
>>343844595
I really liked this box art
>>343845767
this game has the best gameboy advance graphics and it is not debatable at all
They were milking this franchise so much they even released greatest hits within the game itself. It's so weird how such a huge game like GH took a nosedive to obscurity within a couple months.
The Xbox version was the first time I played HL2. It was bretty gud actually. Not the worst port.
>>343849924
>I bought this piece of shit at full price
>>343850534

>>343849924

>>343849924
Any RTS port to a console is just bizarre
>>343850960
I remember playing the demo of this. Then immediately wishing my computer at the time was good enough to run it.
Hell, I remember quitting the first game on my PC and having to go do something else for 30 minutes while the desktop loaded.
It was better on XBOX than PC
>>343845767
Fucking amazing idea by rockstar making Max Payne isometric
>>343850960
I actually really liked this and it, and Tiberium Wars, worked surprisingly well. Although that Croatia mission in the latter where you have to defend the base was essentially impossible on console.
Billy hatcher was on PC
In a similar vein, HL1 on the PS2. Actually not a terrible port, you can hook up KB+M through USB. Biggest problem is the framerate drops horribly in combat.
This is the true answer. I think I forgot this game came out in less than a month.
What were they thinking?
>>343851131
Nope. It's surprising it runs at all on the Xbox. You have to play with a controller and it's bottom of the barrel graphics and performance. I don't think anything was cut though. It's still inferior in every way compared to the PC version.
>>343851381
WAIT WHAT?
THIS HAPPENED?
>>343851273
download link? that was one of my favorite games
>>343851101
I'm thankful that my computer wasn't that much of a toaster at the time. Game isn't very great but it's some nice, dumb fun.
>>343851214
I've actually heard that Tiberium Wars is the best console RTS but never got a chance to try it. Interesting.
Also, here's another weird one that I just remembered.
>Released for the Wii and the limited edition of PS3 Dead Space 2
>>343849593
3 is good though,
>>343842420
This was actually my first experience with the HL series and what introduced me to PC gaming.
>>343851757
Probably have more luck finding a download for the gamecube version and running it through an emulator
If you find the pc version you have to hope it comes with a crack
It still hurts /v/
>>343851391
The sound was better on Xbox. There was more reverb, it made the world feel emptier.
>>343850729
Pajama Sam: No Need To Hide When It's Dark Outside also got ported to the Wii under the title Pajama Sam: Don't Fear the Dark in 2008. Literally a 15 year old PC game by that point.

This was actually an very good port.
Great graphics for the system, top down isometric shooters are awesome and they even managed to fit in a lot of the voice acting.
The fact that a psp version of oblivion ever made it past conceptual stages
>>343842420
It was honestly a technical achievement this port even happened. It looked like the PC equivalent of pretty much all low and still had frame drops but it was amazing they got it to run on any of the consoles at the time.
>>343850875
They were probably just shoehorning that in because it was the only console it was released on. PC being treated as not a console of course.
I win
https://youtu.be/ppR4a6LGk-4
>>343850625
This was actually a good game anon, it had full band versions of songs that came out from 1,2, 3, aerosmith and 80s. You could play all the fucking shitty plastic instruments with this version. My edgy shitty friends and I played dragonforce on full band mode, that shit was fun, it was also fucking like 6 years ago now
>>343852757
Indeed. Especially when you consider even the PS3 version had some problems running the game, with the 360 version at least running it decently on medium-ish settings.
>>343850625
Activision did was activision does and milked it to death.
I played this one and it was shit. They re-did a lot of the charts and they were shit especially the GH2 songs which is easily the best game in the series before Harmonix left.

Holy fuck, how is that not running at 5FPS? That's amazing.

I only played it at a friends house once because he had it. I would have never touched it otherwise, but holy shit was it bad.

>>343849924
>>343850960
Oh yeah, let's get it on.
>>343850625
It was easy for them to justify and afford multiple releases in a single year cuz the content was just songs.

How the fuck is a port of one of the most anticipated games on a console that can mange to run it an "Oh yeah, that happened" thing?
>>343853501
Don't the console version lack updates? Just like TF2, this is a good thing.
>>343852927
God this game was so shit. Aiming was so fucking difficult
>>343853251
What would the response be if this happened today? How fast and how hard would Microsoft be swatted down? Would people still eat it up?

who made this?
>>343853554

Damn, I didn't know that. post link for gameplay?
Hell if you think that was bad, I first played Half Life on the PS2.
>>343853575
>Just like TF2, this is a good thing.
No it's not. I can tell you've never played the console version or vanilla. The console version is filled to the brim with glitches and exploits. You can even bring up the console and start spawning shit. Shit's unplayable.
>>343853701
You can actually get it working pretty well. I've played through most of it pretty recently but don't want to finish it because the ending is a lot of video cutscenes, which don't work for me for some reason.
>>343853575
This. 360 has permanent access to cancer free versions of TF2 and GO.
>>343853251
People didn't eat that shit up back in the day, they were always sceptical of it. The reaction would be pretty much the same.
>>343851296
that game was fun as hell
>>343853771
I meant just the fact it's vanilla. I wouldn't know about the console port glitches.
>>343852008
>>343853701
The Xbox port was actually kinda a big dal when it first released but it's since fallen into obscurity
>>343852927
oh shit I remember this was my 2nd DS game
pretty trash compared to the regular version
>>343850875
Plot was different.
Its actually not a bad NES action game if you just remember its not a metal gear game and has nothing to do with metal gear.
>>343853901
What were they thinking.
>>343853848
>le hats are the ultimate cancer, trumping horrifically unbalanced gameplay
fucking stop already dude
>>343853908
Metal Gear Solid 2 and Silent Hill 2, both games were way better on Xbox than on PS2
>>343844595
The maps on this port were so damn good.
>>343853995
I'll do you one better.
It's actually the best version to get if you want a physical copy since it's dirt cheap.

>>343854483
If you are talking about the original version, and not REmake, then yes I agree.
>>343854610
This isn't actually that bad if you play it like an RE game (run from encounters when possible and conserve ammo for bosses) and not an RPG.
>>343853014
The N-Gage in general probably can be it's own entry.

Good times.
>>343850875
I don't remember Starcraft 64 having a PC release.
>>343853501
It was also one of the first 360 games to become backwards compatible with the Xbox One.
>>343853575
Yeah, it's stuck on a really old build because of the "fuck you pay me $40,000 every time you want to patch your game after the first 3" rule on consoles. I think it's a build before the M4A1-S or CZ were even introduced to the game.

The 64DD, colloquially referred to as the Nintendo 64DD, is a magnetic disk drive peripheral for the Nintendo 64 game console developed by Nintendo. It was originally announced in 1995, prior to the Nintendo 64's 1996 launch, and after numerous delays was finally released only in Japan on December 1, 1999. Only ten software titles were released until the unit was discontinued in February 2001. It was a commercial failure, with at least 15,000 total units sold and another 85,000 units unsold.
>>343844595

It was so fucking bad i can't believe i finished. The atmosphere and level design felt good but just dying and having to repeat 30 minute sections was super frustrating and stacked itself repeatedly so it took longer then it should have.

It's actually a pretty good port compared to the trainwreck ports of the HL2 episodes.
>>343855470
Was that actually a mechanical hard drive?
>>343855432
Last time i checked there was. Did someone just mod it to have one? Or is having a quick save and manual save two different things? Because like i said last time i checked the PC version playthroughs i've seen people pause and save without having to reach a save point image.

I don't remember any quick save. If there was that would have saved me a lot of frustration. It had those glyphs on the walls you had to find to save.

>>343855470
You can play 64DD stuff on flashcarts now, right?
>>343853243
This was actually good.
>>343855638
In theory, though in my experience it's super picky about what mice will work or not.
>>343855638
as long as it supports usb 2.0, yes
>>343851782
Dead Space Extracted was GOAT though. It was basically Dead Space 1.5 in terms of the storyline, which was still pretty good at the time.

>>343856156
Mirror's Edge is pretty popular for a singleplayer IP though, EA's real fuck up is trying to appeal to SJWs with Faith's new design and not marketing the game at all.
SJWs don't buy games and no one buys games they don't know exist.
>>343842420
>>343844595
These are still the only ways I've played either of these games.

The difference here is that CS:GO was designed as a reboot for consoles, not as a port of an already existing PC game.

Why they didn't make it a SuperFX game still baffles me. The only remarkable thing about Spectre when it came out was the polygonal graphics. So for the SNES port they did it all...with Mode 7 and scaled sprites? For what possible reason
>>343856481
I want Katy Perry's sweet treats.
>>343855316
Semi-serious question: Would the game have been better off without Anita lecturing DICE? I don't recall her or feminists/SJW getting a lot of flack or blame for it. Was the game simply bad on all faults and no one even felt like blaming any one thing for it?
>>343854404
Why?
>>343850778
Reminds me of Mario Kart on GBA.
>>343842420
It's a great game but it didn't age very well. The first one aged much better

Oh shit, I remember Cop on DS. It was somehow more GTA-y than the actual DS GTA.
>>343842420
I rented this back when it came out and fuck, my mind was completely blown. I stayed up all night playing it. Absolutely nothing wrong it.
>>343851808
lolno
the fact that all the units and buildings were in 3d was cool, but the game ran like a crusty cumsock
also the lack of FMVs in a C&C game is a sin

Cheaper?
SuperFX was a separate chip developers had build into the cart, raising per unit costs significantly.
THEY ACTUALLY MADE A THIRD PERSON SHOOTER FOR THE GBA THE ABSOLUTE MADMEN
>>343842420
I actually had this and I don't remember it being bad though. It wasn't any worse than any other console FPS at least.
>>343853809
Was the port any good? I got both the original and TiP on Xbox and even though TiP has some annoying features I play it just for the extra content but only the original had a PC port so I wanna know if it's worth picking up at all
>>343856561
Apparently(on VERY broad terms), all Anita did was lecture them on the story (which itself was one of the biggest complaints even IGN recognized). every other flaw the game had could invariably be blamed on DICE.
>>343842420
Was it a decent port?
>>343857114
It was.
>>343855650
Honestly this is a pretty nice SP campaign, I'd recommend it to anyone who finds "an unnecessary fusion of HL and CoD4" to be an interesting proposal.
>>343857284
Driv3r is on GBA as well. Open world third person game.
>>343857414
It was about as good as you could expect a HL2 port to a sixth gen system to be.
>>343857353
It's been a while but I remember it being a solid port. The KB&M controls actually help the interface for most of the game. It was saddled heavily with Games for Windows Live bloat, so I am unsure if it is even playable today.
>>343856558
>i bought one
>>343857192
Why even port Spectre at all if you're not gonna do polygons, is the thing
>>343853272

>>343856692
After seeing what they're doing with the story I can't say I'm super excited for the upcoming sequels.

Now I'd be hyped if they released the Master Chief Collection on the PC. I never had the pleasure of owning Halo 3 and ODST.

>>343857414
Decent for the time. Framerate was spotty and textures took a severe hit, but the physics were still there. Not terrible, but considering many tablets can now play HL2 maxed out @ 720p, its not worth anything outside of a curious peek on the cheap.

IF I remember correctly there was a thread with that verson of the game working fine
>>343857708
The PC version has a key that holding it emulates a soft button press for the next button you press. So if you hold the button and hold the fire key for your pistol he'll hold the pistol out to aim and then you can let go of the fire key and he'll lower the gun. It's the same system the Xbox versions of the game (and 3) use. I wasn't able to get it to work with other weapons like the assault rifle or sniper rifle but then again I didn't really try too hard so it still might work.
There's also a movement speed modifier so you can walk if you for some reason want to play with a keyboard.
