Is Chronicles really a bad Tomb Raider game?
Never played but, it can't be worst than 3 or Angel of darkness right?

At the time being sold as a full-priced game, with less content than previous titles, more bugs, Pierre and Larson being written in for absolutely no good reason, and Eidos paying magazines for favourable review scores, it was a a bitter release. Still not as bad as AoD though.
Nowadays as a really cheap downloadable, it's a fine slice of classic Tomb Raiding, even if it's not as good as the previous titles, and the PC version comes with the level editing tools.

5 games on 1 console generation.
You'll never see that happening nowadays.

Don't know if sarcasm.
Assassins Creed anyone?
Also it's a bit hilarious that the fourth Asassins Creed game is called Asassins Creed Relevations and the fourth Tomb Raider game is called The Last Revelation

Evidently the same people who skewered DBZ made a similar series for FF7. It's pretty hilarious.

No is not. Its just bad. Just like everything else they do. Old dead jokes and twists that only a 15 year old would think is funny. But maybe people who haven't played ff7 find it funny. You tell me OP.

Honestly, I feel like the only thing that might be too esoteric is the trading sequence to find an optional late-game sword, but I was able to figure that out when I was a little kid.
The game is very straightforward about what it wants you to do; you just have to explore and figure out how to do it. Have fun!
>>
>>3319591
You'll be fine. You should try out a texture pack if your computer can handle it; I recommend the cell-shaded one.
>>
>>3319591
What do you mean?
emulator- wise? Or if you can finish the game without help? If millions of of kids did it you can too. One of the most likely points to get stuck could be how to get Jabu Jabu to open his mouth.
And emulator wise even with PJ64 1.6 everyting will work just fine, I played through it with that one without problems.
Anyone have a rhea for their Saturn? I just picked one up and it's pretty sweet. I wish there was a way to batch convert .bin files to work with it though.

Hello /vr/, I was wondering if you could recommend me some games...
I'm looking to play "action games", by this I mean something that has a bit more action than a platformer like Mario, I don't mind if platforming is in it but not a straight up platform game....I also don't want to play an RPG, exploration like in Super Metroid is fine but it can't be a full blown RPG.....
So, what would you recommend that isn't Mega Man? Pic not related

So the "PC" input in my Bravia claims it has no idea there's anything plugged in. I do some googling, evidently it's a common problem. Apparently the DC outputs 720x480p instead of the 640x480p the TV is normally willing to accept, so it just rejects the signal entirely. Internet people claim that things like VGA couplers, VGA>HDMI converters, and pic related VGA>VGA converters will spoof the proper signal, allowing the TV to recognize it, no problem. I tried all of those things with no success. I even tried decoding the VGA into HDMI into my home theater receiver, and then HDMI into the TV to see if the TV would accept the DC's weird-ass resolution via a more malleable format like HDMI. Nothing. How the fuck do I play my fucking Dreamcast, barring the horrors of composite video? Obviously S-Video is a step up, but still not ideal, and still looks real fuzzy on non-CRTs. Is there a way to convince my TV that VGA isa cool thing it should try? Is there some VGA>Component solution I'm not aware of? Is there any other way to get 480p out of a Dreamcast? I am getting incredibly frustrated. Anything helps, God bless.

FTFY
Hello, /vr/. I currently want to play the Banjo games and Conker's Bad Fur Day. The thing is that I don't have the money to buy a N64 and an Everdrive/original cart; so I ask: How are the ports of the former games on the 360 and how is the remake of the latter in the original Xbox?

>>3318278
No idea about Live & Reloaded, but the B-K port for the 360 is fine. Admittedly tough, I haven't played the original in a while now but the port ran fine and the HD enhancements make it look better on a modern TV without killing the feel of it.
>>
>>3318278
Kazooie on 360 is excellent, no issues
Tooie on 360 fixes the framerate but makes aiming extremely sensitive, resulting in a lot of frustration. Just emulate it.
No idea about Conker, but consensus is the original is better.
>>
>>3318278
Kazooie is great, better than the original. Only mistake is one of the bonus videos at the end don't sync up right but that's it.
Tooie is decent but not as great, it's way too dark for some reason and the opening cut scene desyncs but very playable. Jamjars rhymes no longer rhyme thanks to a change in control scheme as well. That'll make no sense if you haven't played the game.
Not played Live & Reloaded but I've heard it looks good although is censored like crazy compared to the original which ruins it. I'd recommend emulating it.

How come there aren't any N64 hardware clones?
Too advanced?

Too expensive to produce, I guess.
There are bootleg N64 carts though. They're not common but I have a bootleg Shadows of the Empire cart I bought back in the 90s.
It doesn't work without a special adapter though.
>>
Hardware "clones" are usually just ROMs running on NES-on-a-chip devices. They generally use the same chip for all console types. This chip is just some generic device that can simulate the hardware environment of older consoles, the NES specifically. Although there are a lot of inaccuracies as a result of this not being a reproduction of the actual hardware.
Designing an N64-on-a-chip would probably require some very intelligent engineering. I would think someone would be more likely to emulate the N64 on a micro computer than attempt to virtualize the hardware.
>>
The big issue would be reproducing the SGI Reality Co-Processor GPU which is: 1) Highly proprietary, 2) Rather complicated, 3) Not well documented other than API functions and some general architectural overviews
Nobody knows how units inside do their arithmetic for example

There was this odd Game Boy RPG-ish game I used to play all the time, just because it was Dragon Ball. I remember actually beating it once, and it covered the couple first Adult Goku story arcs (maybe up to Vegeta maybe)
A friend got the french-translated fighting game for the Mega Drive too; pretty neat one as well
>>
>>3318235
I still have a physical copy of that exact game with the converter since cartridges on the US SNES were different. I had a lot of fun but Trunks is cheese on the water map or in the sky on any map since you can't crouch down to block.

I had that game for Amstrad CPC. Never could get past first stage, even though I beat all the other fighting games like Barbarian, Kung Fu Master, Yie Ar Kung Fu, Exploding Fist, etc.
