Just finished Crash 1-3 and CTR, they were a bit on the easy side. CTR was the first thing I played on the PS1, 3D grafx blew my mind into smithereens.

Crash 2.
Crash 2, RE 2 and 3, FFIX, Wipeout 2097/XL, Tekken 3.
Colony Wars, not really obscure I guess.
Resident Evil 2 and 3...again...for the 500th time.

to be fair, It took me a month to find the name of pic related, based of of nothing but me remembering playing the first level when i was six.
Other than the fact that the masses are retarded, why is this game considered terrible? It is literally one of my favorite games ever. This is one of the few gaijin developed RPGs that was ported to several Japanese platforms (SFC, Marty, X68K). I understand the translation is shit, but it's nothing that makes the game unplayable. It had beautiful graphics for its time. The music is wonderful, haunting at times, and immersive. Kemco's 'remix' gave it that Shadowgate/Uninvited horror excitement factor. One review in particular claimed this game is "only...

This board only listens to YouTubers, they won't touch this game with a ten foot pole because Joey Fagface said it sucks.
>>3183160
Way to prove you have shit taste. Oh wait, this is an anime board. Of course you have no clue about what doesn't suck.
Fact - This game is way better than Earthbound.
How would /vr/ make Sonic 4 in the 90s as a sequel to 3&K?
Would it be on Saturn? What levels would there have been? Characters? Story?
No Robotnik. Sonic will have to train at the sonic academy for a long time and then face his arch rival on the Sega Dreamcast. Coldsteel the Hedgehog
>>3182293
psst..nothing personnel kid..
I would introduce a new wacky friend which is featured prominently in half the game while Sonic himself gets sidelined.
What PS1 games CAN'T I play on PSP?
I'll also accept games that are technically playable, but have a bad experience.
So far I've got:
Ape Escape
Alien: Resurrection
Gran Turismo 2 (Can't get analog controls working)
>>3182124
I still have trouble playing Dino Crisis to this day. I either get random crashes on older firmware, an unusable shotgun (Crashes the game), or screwed up entities rendered wrong such as things that render through the background.
Interestingly enough, the last issue occurs with some other capcom games when emulated. Onimusha has that same issue on PS2 emulation.
>>3182124
Valkyrie Profile.
>>3182152
Lenneth exists though.
so who thought this was a good idea?
Nintendo
Gunpei Yokoi.
You guys want to hear a joke?N64 emulation.
>>3181806
It's actually ok for early games. Gets hairy with later games though.
>>3181806
Think of all the games you're missing out on: Mario, the list goes on...
Wanna hear another one?Blast processing.
What did you think of Ninja Gaiden
One of the best games ever made.. the first one at least on the NES
>>3181558
>>3181558
You're gonna hate me, but I only liked the first 3D Ninja Gaiden on Xbox. The NES games just felt like generic platformers of the time.
>in 1993 this was the best platform for computer
L-O-L
wow i want to be the guy ripped off this game
Bitch please.
>>3179574
Me, although I still played the shit out of Doom 1 and 2 as well.
>being a mono-genre fag
>the Sega Saturn was great at 2D!
>play symphony of the night on it
Yeahhh nah. Playstation version shits on it apart from no Maria.
*yawn*
The game was developed for the PS2 and it actually uses a lot of polygons to make the graphics. Yes, even if the game looks 3D, it was programmed as a 3D game with flat textured polygons. (there's also some visible ones like the coffin on the save room, for example).
The Saturn port was made from the PS1 version, it's not that they both were being developed at the same time. The port was made by a small team within Konami, not the same dev team from the PS1 version.
Compare virtually any other multiplat, especially ports from arcade to console,...

Are you drunk?
post games you think are overrated beyond belief or don't live up to the hype

Metal gear solid
I have only one save and he keeps one shotting me with his summons, am I better off restarting the game? Close I can get is kill two of his minions with lighting sword
>>3177492
You should have learned to keep back up saves
>>3177516
I though I didn't need it, I didn't need it for 6,7 or 9 or even Chrono Trigger for that matter
>using Agrias
>not using based Mustadio
>not using oracles with life drain to melt the boss
It's like you don't even want to slay demons
How is the PSP port for this game? Are we allowed to talk about PSP ports here?
>>3177346
Plays more like FFT than the original.
More equipment slots, and not limited to 4 slots total for weapons, gear and items.
Items are just a standard item pool like in FFT or a traditional JRPG.
You need class marks to use a class, so you can't just have like 10 terror knights unless you have 10 terror knight marks to do so.
Then theres a different translation which is kind of a take it or leave it thing, some are going to hate it, some will prefer it.
I dunno if it's better...

Cheers m8, I was just curious because I already know to avoid the PSP port of FFT.
ehhh, sometimes I prefer the simplicity of the SNES version
they added a lot of stuff but the game felt like a mixed bag imo
the biggest improvement the psp version made was letting the player run from battles or completely avoid them
We discuss pre PPC Aplle computer gaming in this thread.
I already know about PPC mac gaming (it sucks liquid shit of birds cloaca) so don't talk about that
What is the difference between the Mac series and the Apple series in terms of gaming?
Which one was B&W?
Which one was colour?
Which one had more games?
Which one cost more?
Which had better gfx?
Which had better audio?
Did either use any controller other than keyboard?
Which one was fanless for less noise?
Were pre PPC apple systems closer to 4th gen gaming like the...

Throwing in many many questions, using underage discussion points like how some other underages call other "enthusiasts" and hoping for discussion/replies.. please go back to /v/ or some other kindergarten.
I would actually say that Apple/Mac gaming was superior to Intel/IBM PC gaming up until a certain year.
Perhaps '90 or '91 is when PC surpassed Mac in terms of gaming. And this is if you don't mind the dank monochrome games on Mac.
Which year do you guys think PC gaming eclipsed Mac/Apple gaming?
I know that PC equalized to Amiga in 92 and surpassed Amiga in 93.
Mac gaming was always lesser quality and quantity than Eurocomps let alone Nipcomps, to say nothing of consoles.

I had a Mac growing up, or it was my mom's, in the early '90s. It was a Performa model, that was one of the very first computers with a CD-ROM drive. There were very few Mac games back then, and there were even less Mac-only games or ones that came out on the platform first. The few that I can think of are the original MacVenture games such as Shadowgate, Uninvited, and Deja Vu I and II. Also there was the Cyan titles like Myst and the earlier ones. Spelunx and Cosmic Osmo were like Myst from what I can remember,...

We need to give this game some love. Anyone else have been emotionally invested with this game?
>>3165897
Love the soundtrack. Sorta hate how confusing it gets towards the end with the sun-stone-shrine full of existing characters, the dark Ark outta nowhere and the bittersweet ending.
Terranigma is one of my favorite games ever. Some people think it loses its charm after you resurrect humans, but that's one of my favorite parts.
>>3166006
>the dark Ark outta nowhere
You mean Light Ark? I thought that was foreshadowed well enough. As soon as you find the princess and Storkholm, and other people who look and act like the townsfolk from Crysta, it becomes pretty obvious that there must be another Ark somewhere in the surface world. I was more surprised by his role than...

game loses steam sadly
it was so unique and good
A Dave and Busters is opening up near me. Should I be excited? What are some of the retro arcade games they have?
>>3164368
Eh, they mostly have ticket games and shit like Guitar Hero Arcade there now. There's a reason why strictly gaming arcades died out; they just aren't popular anymore.
Cedar Point's arcade is pretty dope tho, shouts out to /vr/ct
Last I checked in one a few years back they didn't have anything retro.
Had the later House of the Dead and Time Crisis though. Were the highlights.
The one in Palisades plaza had a large area just for Battletech Firestorm Pods. Was pretty fucking neat. Think it's gone now.
That place hasn't had retro games for awhile though.
