>"memed on'

I don't even know what that fucking means, but
I never seen Vectorman get any type of negativity thrown its way.
>>
Vectorman is a well loved game.
>>
I usually shit on western game design, but Vectorman was great.
One of my favorite western-developed Sega games.
Vectorman was the closest the Genesis got to competing with Donkey Kong Country in terms of graphics, I think a lot of times it matches it.

Are there any 90s visual novels as good as True Love?

Also, let's have a thread for erotic retro games in general like Leisure Suit Larry.

There's no English patch for this is there?

It's a dating sim, not a visual novel.

>>4156315
At least try google searching before outing yourself as an EOP.

I really like True Love but still hope people can experience the greatness of Tokimeki someday.

Is "the game has aged" a legitimate criticism for older games?
195 posts and 11 images submitted.

Yes. It's just another way of saying "It hasn't held up," which is a legitimate criticism for any media.
>>
>>4156182
No criticism is legitimate without justifying your opinions
>>
>>4156182
no, it's a criticism of the critic.

-Good bosses
-Non pretentious story
-No Zero Suit Samus sequence

More/better sequence breaking. Most people don't seem to care about that though, so I don't know why Super is usually considered superior.

Not recruiting him is a deliberate waste of a useful asset.

Can we talk about how great the official artwork for Majora's Mask is? The rich, bold coloring contrasted by the pich-black shadowing makes for a very distinctive look which perfectly matches the dark atmosphere of the game itself.

It seems like they were designed like arcade software. Like, you're supposed to leave your nintendo on all week and a bunch of people are supposed to walk past and play it.

I tried this last night. Wow.

It's even worse than he said. By the time you get to your destination, if you can even find it because the streets are a maze, you're half dead already from the rooftop gunmen. Then you enter an area and you have to creep yourself forward one pixel at a time to get the next guy to appear on screen and determine if he has a gun or not so you can either shoot him if he does, or not if he doesn't. Then not to mention the stiff controls.

I can only imagine how pissed kids were in 1990 when their parents paid $70 for this and it was the only game they were getting until the next birthday/Christmas. It's so unplayable I can't even fathom how it was released.

As Mr. Iwata explained, the developers would get really good at the game as they developed it, so they'd end up inadvertently making it really fucking hard, so that it challenged them, the people who were already familiar with the game.

Thus, new players would just get fucking demolished by the difficulty because it is tuned for someone who has been playing the game a lot already
>>
>>4165889
There is no way they could design the game and think getting shot to death just driving to the level was "too easy". More like they just didn't care. If it wasn't for the rooftop gunmen the game would be a lot better.
>>
>>4165856

you do know you can kill the rooftop snipers? literally git gud

A = jump
B= attack

Any variation on this makes the game completely unplayable.

Sneak and Repair are the most viable skills in Fallout. You can sneak around to set off the self destruct in both the Masters Vault and the Mariposa Military Base also making the Stealth Boy one of the most useful items in game. The Repair skill is also most needed to fix the Suit of Powered Armor (Makes Guns useless unless they get a critical.) and The Water Pump in Necropolis (Unless you're a sick bastard) but this doesn't relate to the thread much.

This game nuked my pc

I bought this game at a thrift shop and was excited to play, when I installed and restarted now my VGA display is completely broken

Ive been trying to fix for a couple hours with no solution

I'm hoping maybe I can boot the pc from a usb stick

I've been using pc's since 1995 or earlier and never had any type of problem this bad, please help

btw the pc is win vista compaq presario from 2008 and only has one display port and i've tested monitors and cables they're fine

Still this game was legit af for ps1 back in the day and I think would be way better on pc in 768p

Some other games i've been getting into-- sim city 2000, 3000 and 4.. City Life 2008

Also other good ones like Panzers Phase One, Rise of Nations, Tropico and Men of War

I should add that this game has some special softwares that need another special software to run the game on "modern" pc's with XP or vista or 7

I also installed this game on an XP laptop it wouldn't run so I uninstalled and then went to try to reinstall 10 times or so and the install program won't even get started

I'm going to try to install on a 2nd XP pc and report back

the pic here is city life 2008 it's one of the most legit games I've played

I found it at a bookstore.. I never noticed that some games from europe with the PEGI rating aren't even sold in the US until I found this game
