There's absolutely no reason to play the Dreamcast version of SA2 over the Battle one

>>382557020
How is this in comparison to Rayman DS? It's so odd to me how Rayman 2 launched two Nintendo handhelds in a row.

literally every pc port for the first few days

>>382557235
>Sa1 and 2
Were they really that bad? I don't remember

>>382557020
>Terrible port

I always saw this as the definitive version. Has the best visuals and portable is a huge plus.

The only issue is the lack of ps2 overworld, but the ps2 version has a ton of its own problems so I wouldn't say it's better.b

>>382557873
They weren't

>>382557904
Time to fuck off with your portability meme

>>382557904
PC is the best version

>>382557904
Multiplayer on dreamcast.

>>382557904
Haha no, Rayman 3D is a terrible port, even the iOS port works better than this.
>>382557689
Is better, but that's not saying much in comparison to the DS one, which is maybe the worst version of Ray2

>>382558334
What's the problem with it?

>>382557904
agreeing with this. I remember playing to the cavern of nightmares or whatever it was and stopping but it was solid as could be until that point.

>>382557235
Has the Nier port been fixed yet? I held off on getting it after hearing about all of issues people were having when it released.

I really want to play the game and I don't have a PS4.

>>382558421
bugged, awfully muffled audio
an already easy game is now even more easy because if you fall into hazards your health gets replenished entirely
glitchy textures
no lighting
terrible framerate
impossible to 100% because the secret lum can't be reached unless you glitch your way in, and that leads to a softlock

>>382558754
Pretty sure you still have to use FAR.

well while we are on the topic of the 3ds

>>382557235
But anon I thought PC master race? Are you telling me that some games are just BETTER ON CONSOLE?

>>382557873
DX is worse than SA1 because it uses the JP version of SA1 so has more bugs than the NA/EU release but beyond that.

these are the definitive versions of each of these games. Man the 3DS got a lot of nice 6th gen remasters

MGS3D adds crouch walk, better graphics, camera camo's, Peace Walker controls,portability

Rayman 3D has better visuals,loading times,portability

pic related adds two new dungeons, two playable characters, new items, monsters,monster arena content, new ending and new story scenes plus portability

>>382562472
MGS3D is better solely on N3DS, the base 3DS is terrible for it.

This is a technical miracle just like Alpha 2 on snes, but holy shit.

>>382562472
Gotta love the whole 2 fps you get in the 3ds version

>>382562472
The only visuals in Rayman 3D that were improved were Rayman's hands and the barrels, other than that it looks worse than the even the pc/n64 version.

>>382558976
Really? I don't remember any of that, then again it's been about 5 years since I played 3d

How was pic related?

>>382557235
Incorrect, all of those games (other than Guilty Gear) are already better or can be made better.

any japanese game that got a PC port during ps2/xbox/gc era

>>382562641
The engine is still locked at 20fps.

>>382563373
Worse for lack of multiplayer in the game that most heavily benefits from it thanks to the creative combat but load times were significantly improved
It also looks like shit on the 3DS but that's a given at this point, though the font is a special kind of atrocious

>>382562480
Bayonetta is 720p on Wii U

>>382563440
Did From ever fix the fucked up durability in DaS2? If I'm not mistaken it was even in SotFS until they finally patched it

>>382561716
Devs half-ass them because people fix it for them FOR FREE

>>382557235
Dark Souls II PC ? Not a chance. It runs very well. If you were talking about the original Dark Souls, that makes sense.

>>382562472
Really hating this "definitive version of the game" meme because a game has more unnecessary shit.

MGS3 wasn't designed around having crouch walk, camera cameos, and Peace Walker-style controls. How the fuck do these additions make it the "definitive version"? It'd be like if you took Mario 1 and added a fucking double jump and nothing else. That's clearly the definitive version of the game then.

MGS2 PC is such a great port!

>>382564901
>It'd be like if you took Mario 1 and added a fucking double jump and nothing else. That's clearly the definitive version of the game then.
Tangentially, Super Mario Bros. Deluxe would be the definitive version of the game if it wasn't for the shitty field of view.

What's wrong with GG on PC (except deader playerbase)

>>382562959
>>382558976
Rayman 3D's skyboxes are actually fuckin broken. They look like repeating wallpaper.

I actually did a side by side comparison between DS and 3DS and the 3DS is better but shit like the skybox extends through the whole game, like it was ported in 10 minutes.

>>382557904
There were several glaring graphical bugs, I mean huge game-wide issues.

>>382562472
Rayman 3D is cheap, rushed trash

MGS3D is good if you can deal with 20 fps (lower if you don't run N3DS with the performance tweak)

and DQ8 is probably a better example than those other two, but still suffers from a reduction in fidelity, but otherwise is an improvement

How is the port of this game?

>>382562472
Except they're all on shitty, awful screens that look like garbage, so anything you try pull about better graphics is completely out the window. I like the 3DS, but pretending that existing games which aren't even vaguely designed as portable games are better just for being portable is fucking retarded.

>>382561716
You know whats funny? Even if a PC port is fucked up, 99% percent of the time it'll still be better than on a console.

>>382566695
It's like Wii version but passed through wet shit filter in 240p, running in smooth 20 fps and also worse controls

>>382564286
I don't remember having any problems with the font, as I recall it looked like a pretty standard low-res font, the kind you might have seen in countless DS games.

>>382566695

Jesus christ, the gba port of 1 was bad, but this is on a whole other level of unfinished.

>>382566876
That just isn't true, especially when said PC port has crippling issues, up to simply not launching. Don't be a memer

>>382564867
It's fine now, but it wasn't when it launched. Not even close. Performance was mostly fine, but things like controls, hit detection and weapon degrade being synced to frame rate was miserable.
What >>382566876 said really applies to Dark Souls 1 PC port though.

>>382567564
But that's not the case. All the problems in the PC ports that guy listed were that they only had the same features as the consoles.

>>382566695
Horrible, please don't do this.

>>382562480
Its 720p on Wii U and has the same framedrops as the Xbox 360 version

>>382557020
rayman 3d is miles better than rayman ds though

Saints Row 2 on PC
Doom on 32X
Grandia 2 on PS2
Sonic 3 & Knuckles on PC back in the 90s (dunno if the port itself performs worse, but the music is completely different and sucks ass)
Spider-Man 2 on PC (literally not even the same game)
007: Nightfire on PC (literally not even the same game)
Splinter Cell: Double Agent on 7th gen/PC (literally not even the same game)
007: The World is Not Enough on PS1 (literally not even the same game)
Bayonetta on PS3
Silent Hill HD Collection
Devil May Cry 3 on PC
Chaos Legion on PC
Billy Hatcher on PC
Resident Evil 4 on PC (the original PC port, not the new one)
Bethesda games (Elder Scrolls/Fallout) on PS3

>>382567059
They're """"""enhanced"""""" ports of the Dreamcast originals

>>382569918
The Gamecube version of SA2 is the best though
