>it's friday the 13th
>no Friday the 13th for NES thread
What the fuck is wrong with you, /vr/?
>>3212545
shitposting is more important. now FUCK OFF
>>3212545
There is at least one other Friday the 13th retro game
iirc
surely somebody has played something other than the NES game, the reserves of autism on /vr/ are great indeed
>>3212545
Never played it, didn't even know that series had a game for a kids console before the AVGN eps.
Seriously, what the fuck Nintendo?
Death Adders shield. Fuck the Golden Axe itself, it doesn't even appear in most games, but Death Adders dragon shield is awesome.
The Zenithian Sword is classic.
i've always liked the sounds the pipe makes in sor2
So since Star Fox Zero is confirmed to be shit, let's look back on this series and discuss the actual good games.
Which are your favorites out of 1, 2 and 64?

space harrier
Starfox 1 is my shit
Discussion/playing of BattleZone 2 and its mods.
BattleZone 2 is a sci-fi FPS-strategy game set in space, and revolves around the plot of humans finding a valuable new type of metal in space, along with the discovery of a hostile alien race whom want it as well.
The servers are down unfortunately, but you can still play online if you open port 17770 and join someones IP.
Its a hard game, but its a good time waster and very fun with more people.
Some links for the game and how to install it properly are here:
GAME:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7g7kks2fzi9qer0/BZ2%20FE%201.3.5.zip?dl=0
.DLL AND README FILES:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dhx3tlu19kfiofp/DLL%20and%20Readme.zip?dl=0
The .dll is virus free, it came out of my system32 folder, and I have a fresh windows 8 installation, which comes with it.
Windows 7 does not, which is why I included it.
Some profiles are in the game already, as I uploaded my personal game.

I really liked Battlezone 2 when I was a kid.
But I never played it in a serious fashion and finished it.
I don't understand why they rereleased the original, since the sequel is, from what I remember, pretty much superior.
>>3211986
i personally think they need to remake this
>>3211986
Because the original in itself had some pretty crazy ass shit. They're both amazing games and my brother kept a small inkling of the community alive with his own servers in post 2005 era up until gamespy went down. The main point of the original battlezone was that it was as if two Beta fish were thrown into a lake by themselves and through instinct and will to survive attempted to kill each other to the point that the final fight was a cosmonaut commander desperately trying to moon walk away from a astronaut piloting a scavenger kamikaze style straight at him.
BZ '98 is very Robinson Crusoe, to the last man and the last round. While BZ 2 is very methodical and planned, both are two sides of the same coin and I love them dearly.
what the shit?

ITT: we determine whether this kind of material is retro or not
>>3211886
MGS was released on September 3, 1998
calm your tits.

they even got david hayter
ITT: games where you are tiny, and travel through environments of normal sized objects which seem very large from your perspective
that sounds sexy

We've got this >>3208461 Cool Spot thread going over here
Have you beaten them up lately, /vr/?
>>3211446
Undercover Cops is pretty great and Rosa is waifu-tier. Buttu!
>>3211472
Agreed
>trying to force the term "belt scroller" this hard
you sure are one massive faggot
What video games do you consider to be overrated and/or have aged poorly, /vr/?
Why the negativity? Couldn't you make a Underrated Games General instead?
>>3211428
your mom aged poorly
REMEMBER!

X6 had great boss designs, cool armors for X, an amazing soundtrack, an awesome end fight against Sigma, and was overall fairly memorable, which is way more than you can say about X5.
For all the stupid shit in the game, X6 is pretty underrated. Its way better than X5 at least, which was a bland, boring mess.
>>3211143
I loved X6 as a kid, I even finished it on Xtreme but damn the nightmare system was pure bullshit.
>>3211143
>Great boss designs
Some were good. Yammark, Mijinion, Heatnix, Wolfang. The other four sucked shit.
>cool armors
Not really.
>amazing soundtrack
Damn right.
>awesome end fight
Not really. Should have ended with the Gate fight.
>way better than X5
Hm no. X6 only has one fun stage - Mijinion's. The rest range from subpar to horrendous. Most of X5's stages are at least passable, though I'd say McWhalen and Heatnix are about equal in shittiness.
X6 is an excellent game but with killer flaws.
I want to see a romhack of this game that's abridged, re-translated, difficulty balanced, and has things like blind jumps fixed or removed.
Hey /vr/, been playing Banjo Kazooie and Tooie at my friend's house for the first time. I finished Kazooie and the Grunty fight was actually difficult. I kept falling off the castle but I eventually beat the warty witch.
Tooie is ridiculously huge, every stage feels overwhelming. Dinosaur land is kicking my ass. I'm on my way to Grunty Industries next.
So let's just discuss these great games.
>Best level
Click Clock Wood
>Worst level
Cloud Cuckoo Land
>Hardest jiggy
Canary Mary rematch
>Best boss
Mr. Patch
>Worst boss
Mingy Jongo (too fucking easy to kill)
r8 and h8 me m8s
I have yet to play Banjo Kazooie beyond the beach level. I dunno, it just feels kinda slow paced compared my all time favourite platformers, and IIRC, you have to collect a certain amount of stuff to progress.
I like fast platformers. Banjo Kazooie is fucking slow. It even looks slow when people speedrun it.
What's your favorite fully-3D retro FPS (that leaves out Doom and the likes)? let's include hybrids like SS2 or Deus Ex for the sake of argumentation.
Gotta go with my boy Deus Ex. It's everything System Shock 2 is, and more. It also has a dialogue system and it's more RPG-ish than SS2.
Unreal/Unreal Tournament.
Unreal because dat fucking atmosphere, also dem cool fights against small groups of powerful and smart opponents.
UT because dat immese ammount of content, mods, maps, all those amazing community servers I spent years on.
Quake
System Shock sucks dicks.
I miss the old games...
Great thread for your facebook tier opinions OP.
>>3210941
People have been saying this for years but I do agree that this is the first gen where I genuinely do not like two out of three of the starters.
But since you posted a gen VII picture you do need to go to /vp/, where they will subsequently tell you to fuck off for being a nostalgiafag. Here's a tip: Post a picture of the new games on the non-retro Pokemon board if you want to talk about the new games. Post a picture of the old games on the retro games board i fyou want to talk about the old games. Don't mix and match.
What's the best looking console?
Best looking? Super Famicom imo. Lancer Barr seemed to disagree though.
>>3210530
*Lance Barr.
Damn Mitsubishi.

please stop yelling
I'm stuck on Secret of Mana. I keep getting wrecked by the spiky tiger, and my party is pretty underlevelled. The thing is I can't even level them up because the AI is too retarded. I tell them to keep away on the action grid but the minute I hit an enemy and run away, they literally just stand there and take all the damage until they are dead. Until now I've pretty much been playing the game by just letting them die and playing as the main character, but it turns out I need them for the spiky tiger fight. I didn't get armor for them either and the magic rope isn't working, so I can't even really go back without backtracking through the entire dungeoun again.
What should i do here?
>>3209420
Secret of Mana is a bad game. It doesn't deserve all the prais it gets nowadays.
>>3209787
Well I was really enjoying it up until this point.
