I have a lot of old AD&D files, but not that one. The closest thing might be this 29 MB compilation of all the rules:
The Complete Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition Archive.pdf
I think it came off a CDROM, maybe even that one. Not sure though, anyway I stopped playing right before the revised "black" cover 2nd editon books came out, so I'm not familiar with all these later supplements.
Anyway this file is just the text, they ripped out all the nice illustrations for some reason.

Just search for Jet Set Radio and scroll down. Package deal is there for download.

sweet, thanks

Because asshurt jannies keep deleting everything related to Dreamcast and Steam.

daikitana was pretty bad but i wouldn't call it tragic

>>3001605
I'd say Romero's hair is even crazier.

He got no respect from his peers, that's for sure. I remember Yoshiki Okamoto and Shigeru Miyamoto both dissed him at different points.

>>3001584
Not really. Hotaru's distinctive qualities are her hair and that she's especially skinny and short.

>>3001590
Just looked up if there were any SM games on the Saturn and apparently the Sega game is the only time you see Hotaru transform.

It doesn't make sense to make female anthromophisms of consoles.
Femlaes don't even play games.
They should really be boys.

That's a big statement to make. There are so many that I could play over and over and not get tired of them. Earthworm Jim 2, Comix Zone, Gunstar Heroes, all the God of War series.

>>3001565
>all the God of War series
That post went into the shitpit pretty quick there.

Stick to /v/, champ. Keep your qte fest there.

>>3001558
It's arguably the best JRPG, but JRPGs barely qualify as games. You might as well skip all the filler and just read a VN.

>What is the cheapest way to get into Universal Game Cases?

Don't buy them? Nothing says bandwagon collector like those ugly things.

The only carts I would even consider getting third party cases for are my Neo Geo MVS carts since they look like ass, and even then I haven't taken the plunge.

Here's an idea---take that 5 bucks per case you would spend,and invest it in games instead.

>>3001428
>The cover project
Is literally the resource to use for UGC.

It's cheaper to buy in bulk from mediashelving or something.

At the same time, a lot of people are making cases that are tailored to fit specific carts and have more utility, like slots for manuals and such.

Customgamecases.com has UGC and GB/GBA cases, and some new NES style cases. I think Stoneagegamer or something similar had custom SNES snapcases.

I own them, and honestly I wouldn't recommend it. They take up a huge amount of space and you're absolutely tied to them for any future purchases. I did it for my current games, and now I have to keep making them or buying them because theres no way I'm doing half/half.

Its definitely something you need to be sure about. I think they look good and I do enjoy them, but they can get expensive, especially if you buy some cheap ass games.

KKND was brilliant. Guess the sequel didn't innovate enough?

>>3001805
A new faction, more refined graphics, the prototype system, amphibic units, controlable airplanes, alternative energy sources,... I really can't see where it innovated not enough.

I guess it was some management or marketing failure.

>>3002316
All factions have almost exactly the same unit line up, with just a few differences, balance is non existant, especially if you look at infantry, everything that isn't grenadiers is not worth purchasing as it's waste of money and lastly accuracy as an RNG riddled component of combat is annoying as hell. It has some charm behind it, but overall the game feels like it was rushed.

>>3001291
I think the indie you're talking about is Indivisible, which got funded successfully. It's billed to be Super Metroid with Valkyrie Profile combat.

>>3001314
Yup, you're right. That's the one I was talking about.

Hopefully it's good.

Bow always seems to work out better for me up until the Post-Game... heck, most Archers in VP1 are kinda terrible so Lenneth is going to be the only person who can use any good bows you pick up by default

No, we actually form our own opinions here, much to the chagrin of people like you who prefer to repeat what others tell them in order to feel like they're fitting in.

>>3000938
The fact is that i planned to buy a used ps1 and i wanted an advice for the games.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

>>3000942
Just ask what genres you like or what's recommended.

mario 1 physics is borked
sound is kind of bad

>>3000613
>mario 1 physics is borked
You mean it isn't faithful to the NES version? Or that both games have the same irritating physics?

>>3000630
it isint faithful to the nes version, when breaking a block the jump follows through after the brick is broken

Just buy one of these.

Great purchase since most consoles from the early gen had the bulky external power supplies.

>>3000487
I like how they say 'or' at the end, to remind you that even the official Sega power strip couldn't power all of those devices plus your TV and stereo

You should try Phantasy Star 1. FF1 really isn't a very good game either, but as you discovered that's all it takes to be worlds better than Dragon Quest.

Phantasy Star blows them both out of the water. Go now, don't waste more time on DQ.

>>3000248
>>3000263

And both games were released after the first Dragon Quest.

OP, I'd say go play Dragon Quest III if you think DQ1 is boring. DQ2 has some more variety and is more story-driven, but III is where it's at.

>>3000274
dq2 is a little too open I think

>>3000005
I think it is. If only you'd posted this a few seconds sooner, then so would have been the get.

surely we've never had this discussion before

>>3000008
Damn, would have been fucking stellar
And yeah, I genuinely can't think of a single flaw with this game
People bring up how annoying the crying is, but I'm willing to excuse that since it's a punishment.

>>2999132
Absolutely not like that. That pussy repellent will have your shit covered in dust, yellowed and faded in almost no time. Keep your precious in a cool dark cave where potential mates won't see it.

>>2999312
Any woman who would act like that is not worth having in your life. What are you going to do, hide your favorite hobby and do it in secret for the entire time you are courting this woman? Not worth it. There are plenty of women who are either into, or do not mind/care about retro video games. Enter a relationship with these women, not the kind of women who hate your hobbies, and wish you would stop enjoying them.
