What's the best way to play Soul Reaver? Should I play the PC version off GOG, or should I get the psx version and emulate it on my phone?

Using aTouchscreen control pad for any kind of action game is the worst. If you have a decent game pad for your PC, you should go with that.

Yes but mostly because it really does go with anything.

I like how the CPS2 version uses the same Korg M1 slap bass sample as the Seinfeld theme.

Anyone using an old RGB-projector to play retro games?

I wouldn't go and say worse. It just didn't do anything unique. That doesn't mean it's a bad game.

Well, here in Michigan we've been hit by our first big snowfall, so it's time to get cozy.

What's you're preferred go-to cozy game for a nice blizzard? already snuggled up with your CRT and a VHS tape of a fireplace? Let's hear the best games/setup combo for maximum comfy,

While on the topic, what are some of the best ice/snow levels you can think of? most cozy, or just memorable. Ristar leaps to mind, especially that soundtrack...

So I've beaten this game for the 3rd time this year, and I'm suffering post-RPG depression. Do you guys know of more SNES RPGs with a focus on complex gameplay rather than long cutscenes? I'd appreciate any recommendations.

You raise a steep bar, anon, considering how FFV has one of the best RPG systems of all time period. But try the Romancing SaGa games.

Happy 25th Birthday!

In commemoration -of the possibly the best Nintendo System- we post our favorite game and what is what we like about it.

I love Lufia 2, despite being a direction mess, the puzzles and the gameplay were awesome for a JRPG. Also the ancient cave.

I just got my first SNES a few days ago. I haven't been able to play it yet but my first games are Mystic Quest, UN Squadron, Chrono Trigger, Gradius III, Pop'n Twinbee, Super Famista, Rockman X2 and Dolucky no Kusayakiu

I used to spend all day playing an emulator back in the early 2000s, my favorite was probably EVO which I hope to pick up but I'm hoping to not pay ebay prices on that one.
>>
Truly the best console.
imo SFC > PAL SNES > SNES Jr. > power gap > US SNES
>>
>>2808943
Best Nintendo console, nothing ever came close to its awesome library.

My favorite games are the Romancing SaGa series, Jikkyo Oshaberi Parodius, Metal Max Returns, Magical Pop'n, Ys V, Castlevania IV and Front Mission:Gun Hazard.
Honorable Mentions go to Alcahest, Brain Lord, Mystic Ark and Shiren the Wanderer.

Cyberpunk, you gotta love Cyberpunk. Classic game, been watching a lot of the gameplay lately. Am a great fan of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. So, should I buy it?
>>
>>2808573
yeah man

the level design and dialogue is still top notch in this game, though the AI is honestly pretty bad, it was a pretty special game at the time it was released
>>
>>2808554
I don't. Tried to get into it three times already but I think it's only good if you grew up with it.

Hey /vr/,

I don't come here too often, but I've been slowly collecting games I had or wanted as a child. Recently my ability to actually build my collection has grown incredibly.

Now the reason I mention this: I was curious if anyone had, or knew of, a list of good games (or I suppose games that are 'required' to have a decent collection) for NES, SNES, N64, Genesis and Saturn. I think it would be useful in building my list of games and a handy second list to go off of rather than just my memory.

I'm going to overlook the douchebaggery of your question and recommend that instead of focusing on "required decent" games you look at the flavor of the games you currently have in your collection and you attempt to expand outward from those games, which is generally done by matching genres and/or themes. What is it that you enjoy about retro gaming? What additional games would expand your enjoyment?

But if you just want to be a douchebag about it choose a platform and start building a complete game set for it. N64 first for maximum douchebaggery.

Would you recommend playing Mother 1 before 2 and 3?

>>2808462

it doesn't matter, play them in any order.
>>
it's better to play them in order but it won't ruin them or anything if you don't.

mainly I'd say just play mother 2 before 3 to get the full impact out of it
>>
I wouldn't recommend playing any of them

I got tired of everyone shitflinging over e-celebs or whatever without providing any real content in past threads, so I dug up some youtube videos and a handful of articles that aren't purely about some random faggot trying to get attention. If you have any informative articles, videos, or books about /vr/ related topics then feel free to share.
Although I personally dont have a problem with let's plays (they make good background noise) try to keep in mind who or what you're linking to, as there are quite a few Anon's with some kind of autistic vendetta to carry out apparently.
