I got a Dreamcast yesterday and have been playing Border Down. What's the incentive for starting at the yellow or red border? Is there a scoring difference?

I don't usually come to these threads, is Bosconian considered a shmup?
And are there any more games like it?

Literally no one is stopping you from playing through arcade mode.

However, if you actually have some sort of desire to play against other people and to *get good* at it, then yes, you need to stop playing arcade mode and find some people to play against.

And people pick training mode to actually practice execution, not to fight input-reading AI.

Also I just want to reiterate that no one is forcing you to do anything and your rage is silly and misplaced.

Meh, "serious" fighting game players in general are autistic fucks. So yeah, THEY pick up habbits and can't stop themselves later on. A normal person CAN in fact play the CPU and learn shit. Enough to play against other low to mid level players and have fun.

Serious players seem to think that if you're not ranked top ten in the world, or playing professionally at tourneys, that it's pointless to play fighting games. And that's just retarded.

Personally, I'm like lower mid level of skills, and I do just fine for myself and have fun on occasion. THAT'S what it's all about.

>>2935926
>A normal person CAN in fact play the CPU and learn shit.

This is pretty untrue. Again, if you people want to play the CPU, go ahead and do so. If you want to do that and play your friends, go ahead and do so. But if you have any desire to get good, you aren't going to learn shit by playing the CPU.

You people have this weird persecution complex. The things you people are arguing against are only said to people who seek competition out of their fighting games. If your bag is playing through storymode or whatever, none of this applies to you.

I'm sure someone remambers knows the details better than I do but the physics of your ship alone is amazing and IIRC this game goes around the NES sprite limit by soft coding every single object on the fly.

This. How the hell did they do Sonic 3's collapsing section at the end of Marble Garden with the VDP? There appears to be 3 layers; the background, the static foreground, and the falling sections. My understanding is that there are only 2 layers on the VDP. Is the falling section composed of sprites? If it is that is very impressive for circumventing the perscanline sprite limit flawlessly on so much terrain. Anyone know about this? And I am _not_ talking about the effect seconds before the boss fight when the level completely falls away.

wow it's fucking nothing

I'm just glad they didn't kill themselves by trying to hack English text into Puyo Puyo 2 on a professional schedule. And I'd prefer a single downloadable version of Power Drift, but getting this physically is good compensation.

He just made you his bitch

You play this game on the highest difficulty and you can get murdered by tiny frogs right at the start.

You actually have to ricochet bullets off a wall in order to destroy a turret to even pass through to the next little area after that

it's silly

>>2932816

He should totally go back and release an update for Daikatana. At its core it's not a bad game. It's just a mess.

nigga do you enjoy sucking dicks? we have this discussion every single day HIDE

I don't need to fight you, PS2 wasn't released in 1999 or earlier.

Also you're kind of a faggot, some bad taste in games... ratched and clank, kingdom hearts, ffx... how atrocious.

it was released 15 years ago, it's retro now

Yes. As long as you're not one of those shit flinging babies who can't into tank controls. Even Resident Evil 1, with a superior version being out there, is still worth the play through for the B-movie feel it has.

If you are able to get the hang of the controls, they are still excellent games. For RE1, play both the original and REmake.

>>2917258

I can't into tank controls, especially not in a game like RE where you need to conserve ammo by avoiding enemies. I have a bigger problem with the camera angles than the tank controls, though.

It's part of why I prefer RE4

>Friendly reminder

Also, why is there not a remaster of AOE1? I like that game much more.

>>2885527
Haven't played the first one in years, what do you think makes it better?

>>2885567

not him but
- the game actually looked better, don't know why, AoE2 always looked more muddy to me, the graphics was more crisp, realistic, the atmosphere was better
- better sounds
- battles happened more fast, the smaller unit cap made micro more important instead of sending 100 eagles in the enemy base and letting them to have fun, but I agree that the unit cap in AoE1 was a little to small

Silhouette Mirage, dunno about the other

Adventure of Little Ralph. Fantastic game.

Keyboard and mouse? No.
360 Controller? Manageable but some shots can feel hard to make with a controller. I don't even want to imagine dog fighting the more advance fighters later in the game without a joystick.

>>2948421
>Would I need to buy a joystick to play them?
Do you want to feel like you're filling in a spreadsheet or dogfighting in outer space?

>>2948421
I am 99.9 percent sure that a joystick is a requirement, and that there is not option to keyboard/mouse the game. That being said you could use a 360 controller but it will handle like shit.
Invest the 30 bucks to get a Logitech wingman extreme from your local big box or Amazon. That way you can also enjoy classics like wing commander and a ton of other great space/flight sims.

>>2948003
Highly unlikely. It's an out of production niche within a niche toy. If you're that into it learn to make your own panels.

It's a good fucking game OP.

IF YOU DON'T RUN PEACH-GENO YOU'RE A PIECE OF SHIT.

Faggot.

It's Mario/Geno/Mallow master race.

There's a video of it running the SM64 64DD disk. FINALLY.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWR4S2uUGEM

Zoinkity was so shit he couldn't even get that running.

Is there anything for the DD worth playing though?

Also will Zelda 64DD (not Master Quest) ever get leaked?

>>2946101
Do you still have to configure 3 different plugins per game for N64 emulation or can you just set up controls -> load rom -> play, and get all accurate gfx?
