So I purchased System Shock: Enhanced Edition in the Humble Spring Sale but I did not expect such horrid controls, I read that the enhanced edition had an updated control system and widescreen setting but if that means clicking the screen to look around then I can't see myself enjoying it.
Is it worth getting over these things and just trying to enjoy or am I missing something here?

That's how adventure games used to be. Also, you have to be at least 28 to post here.
Hi. System shock 1 is vastly improved with a mouse look mod.

Do you have any songs you still remember from games you barely played? Like, the song was so good that you remember it more than the game.

Watched my brother beat Deja Vu once and this song proceeded to be an earworm that would pop in & out of my head for this next 10 years.

Didn't know there was a James Bond Jr. game
I loved the intro theme of the cartoon

Yeah it wasn't very good game, it's suppose to be a kids game but in the first level you have to solve 3 rubic cube puzzles in like 5 mins each.
I WAS FUCKING 8 I DIDNT KNOW WHAT THE FUCK THESE WERE AT THE TIME.
Where is the secret passage i'm supposed to be looking for?
Also snes love thread. I just got an emulator and control so have been playing games i missed out on as a kid.
Whats your top 5? since i started replying mine is:
u.n. squadron
urban/jungle strike
donkey kong country
f zero
cronos
>>3215468
I play UN Squadron all the time, shit's fucking cash. Most of the planes are so fun I just do a run using a specific one, and skip the final plane.
>>3215496
whats your favorite plane?
mine is pic related
>>3215508
That and pic related
Avoiding lock on missiles may seem small, but it helps late game.
Would Atari have been a stronger competitor against Nintendo and Sega if they retooled the Lynx as a console instead of a handheld and scrapped the Jaguar altogether?
>>3214843
The Lynx is huge as fuck, goddamn. Should have called it Rhino or Elephant or something.
No. What are you nuts? Compare the Genesis version of Todd's Adventures in Slime World to the Lynx version, or Gauntlet 4. And you're suggesting they'd put it up against Saturn?
>>3214852
>And you're suggesting they'd put it up against Saturn?
the Lynx released in 1989, it wouldve gone against the Genesis
Can we all agree that this game was fucking horrible?
Fuck knows
>fucking horrible
It's "okay" at worst. What the fuck is with this "it's either perfect or shit" mentality I see so much?
gets a bit cheap near the end but i really liked the atmosphere and gameplay of the first few levels... well the first 2 levels anyway.
Discuss sidescrolling and overhead run 'n gun games ITT.
Perhaps you meant to call them some pretentious weeaboo term that doesn't actually describe their content. Like Cantaloupe Trotter or something.

>belt scroller
>pretentious
Really now?
>>3214630
>sidescrolling
I believe you mean "belt-scrolling" shooter?
Please fix this OP
I'm only asking here because i can't find shit on google. I'll give 1 4chan Diamond pass and 1 vintage meme to anyone who can help me find RIPS of ps1 games. Rips as in ones with music/FMV cut out to reduce file size. I've looked everywhere and I remember downloading tons of them back in the day and burning them. But I can't seem to find them anymore, most links are dead. Between my shit internet right now (i'm on work assignment in the middle of nowhere with literally dial up over wifi) and the fact that i'm playing on a laptop with an SSD that has tons of work documents on it. I need a small file size. Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.
You can do it yourself pretty easy with that ecm tool

Do you mind explaining? I'd like to do that when I get back home. Right now though I can't download anything larger than 50 or so megs without it timing out, generally my download speeds are 7-12kb/s as well. So even that takes a long time. So if you happen to know where i can download pre-ripped games that'd be nice. I've found a few just not very many. And generally not very good games
Hey Anon I've avoided PS1 my entire life. I've hated the PS1 when it came out. I was like
>Those shitty 3d graphics look shitty. I will stick to my NES, SNES, GB, Genesis, Master System and Dos
My opinion still hasn't changed BUT I might be wrong. There might be GREAT PS1 games out there and I have been very ignored all my life so PLEASE enlighten me. I can only think of TWO PS1 games that might interest me:
Disney's Hercules seemed like a fun platformer. Symphony of the night is supposed to be a great Castlevania game.
So please what great titles does the PS1 have that can be still enjoyed nowadays?
Look at one of the countless top 100 lists on the internet, choose one that appeals to you. Do your own homework.
>>3214525
I did. It's all shitty 3d with wobbly textures that constantly move around. Disgusting crap. I've tried to do some research for years now but I only find crap. I can not believe that such a popular system is full of garbage.
>>3214512
The PSX is a much better system than NES or SNES, which were hindered by poor hardware (sprite flicker in many NES games, slowdown in many SNES games due to its shitty processor).
That said, PSX 3D in general has not aged very well.
Remodeling of the body is not required
Might want to clean the shit and blood off it first.
>>3214120
Clean that shit son fuck dude
>>3214120
Did you use that poor pce as an ashtray?
Can we talk about the old days of expansion packs? That thing that existed before DLC and was far superior to it and what DLC should be.
Gothic 2 expansion pack was GOAT
>>3214069
scourge of armagon is racially superior to the base game
~$160
vs.vs.vs.
$302
what am I missing buying the knockoffs? dsp support on the snes cart? risk of doa or faiilure?
Shit components.
Wrong pcb width.
Poor quality.
>>3214003
are the too thick or too thin? I know a few anons here have the snes version and haven't seen threads about them dying or fucking anything up. For about half price it is tempting.
>>3214002
I've heard that the Super Everdrive China Version is almost exactly the same as the authentic Super Everdrive except for a poorer build quality, though I haven't owned either so take my word with a grain of salt. The ED64Plus can't save some games because of limitations with its SRAM, so you'd probably be better off going with an Everdrive64 v2.5. Haven't seen anything about the Chinese Megadrive flashcart but I'd suspect it's inferior to the official version.
I didn't see one in the catalog. Post your recent finds. For some reason, I felt compelled to buy all this Atari shit. I feel like I paid too much, though. There was also a bunch of manuals and paperwork for a Commodore 64C and PS2 memory card in the box as well.
I have all that shit already except Kool Aid Man so if I happened across it at a yard sale I would have only paid about $10 for the whole lot. If I suddenly lost all my shit and had to buy it back I might pay $30-40 for a lot like that and if you were to break it all down and sell it on eBay it'd probably fetch $60-$80
How much did you pay?
>>3213919
Thats a shit load of controllers OP.
