What is the most difficult 90s FPS? Is it pic related?
>>2845570
Rise of the Triad
Hexen can be tough, but mostly because it isn't clear where you're supposed to go.
Hardest FPS in terms of difficulty is Blood.
>>2845635
duke nukem 3d is harder, but both are only hard because of their reliance on hitscanners
it's just me or this game has a terrible pacing?

Playing it right now, it's really fast compared to most jrpgs, a lot of the towns are incidental and just there, you don't spend much time in them at all; they just funnel you into the next dungeon and sometimes the next dungeon funnels you into the next dungeon. There's very little downtime unless you have issues like I do and spend most of your time at the item storage.

I started it but don't think I'll finish it. The combat is annoying because enemies take so goddamn long to kill, especially if you have a team with mostly mages (which is often the case early on when you've got the paladin, the monk who does shit damage, the twins and Tellah). Sure, using magic ends battles quickly but you usually don't have the TP to make it very far. And healing spells seem so weak for their TP cost. And fucking opening the map costs TP.
On the other hand bosses are piss...

And will it make me feel like a little girl? < Very import question.
>>2843423
Yes and yes.
The SFC one?
Why the fuck can't you map angle up/down to anything but L and R?
because there are only 6 buttons and mapping that to A,B,X or Y would be even worse.
>>2840984
There are 7 usable buttons
And no it would not be worse.
yeah because jumping/shooting would work so well with the L/R buttons. to each his own, but sounds ridiculous to me.

I'm not gonna lie. I would totally read that book, if only because it looks absolutely ridiculous (in the fun, Doom kind of way).

What game is the best example of FMV done right?
Spycraft: The Great Game
Even included cameos from Oleg Kalugin (former KGB Major-General) and William Colby (former CIA director),
>>2854062
The 7th Guest
Realms of the Haunting
Corpse Killer 32x
who /MetalSlug/ here
They look really neat. Where do I start with them?
>>2853648
If you ask me I'd start with the first one. Not perfect, but it's simple enough with a fair amount of difficulty.
>>2853637
One of my top favorite series.
>>2853648
1 is must play. 2 is obsoleted by X. X is 2 without the slowdown and some minor tweaks. 3 is the generally agreed upon pinnacle.1 is my personal fave though.
1st Mission and 2nd Mission on NGPC are also worth playing.
AVOID EVERYTHING ELSE BECAUSE IT GETS REALLY BAD STARTING WITH 4.
Which installation is the best?
Is it pic related?
red alert 2. Its the best of all worlds.
>>2852085
Tiberian Sun IMO
>>2852085
Red Alert is overall better but for some reason I always preferred C&Cs campaign. Both great games so you can't go wrong playing either one.
Which version of Street Fighter II is the best?
Super Turbo for competition.
Hyper Fighting for pre-supers balance and fun.
Super Street Fighter II the New Challengers
hyper fighting, turbo is way too fast
Favorite N64 game?
the one that looks blurry
Singleplayer? Zelda: Majora's Mask
Multiplayer? Battletanx and Battletanx: Global Assault ( global assault is also on playstation though )

i know it's a meme choice
All memes aside, was the 32x really that bad?
>>2840362
well there are like 3 games for it that aren't shit so yeah.
if you meant technically speaking? of course, why the fuck did they use cartridges?
note: i owned every sega console and add-on growing up.
>>2840369
Don't need to use carts. With the SegaCD connected the 32x can use CDs.
After Burner II
Space Harrier
Virtua Fighter
Virtua Racing
at least 4 good games but the problem is none of them are exclusive and besides Virtua Racing, none of them are the best version.
Why did a fair amount of ps1 titles not take advantage of those analog sticks?
Did you know the analog sticks were the L3 and R3 buttons, too?
>>2838281
Thought that was only on DS2 forward?
>>2838279
Because, on release, the PS1 didn't have the analog sticks.
It only did somewhere halfway down the line IIRC, when they got your pic's sticks.
Not too long after they introduced the now-standard bubble sticks.
What build will completely decimate the game? I want an easy time through all combat.
Also, I played once and had what I thought was a decent lockpicking score, but everything I tried to open never did. Do you have to try multiple times to pick a lock and eventually it will work?
10 LCK --> find Alien Blaster immediately
>>2820685
It's based on a dice roll. Best bet would be to save before you attempt anything regardless of your stats.
