So I finally decided to take this off my list, like, 15 years too late.
Problem is, I know there's a whole bunch of mods now - some cosmetic, some bugfixes and game tweaks, some add content - and I'm in the classic dilemma: do I Play As Intended (maybe with some bugfixes), or do I Push The Graphics (maybe with that unofficially-official engine patch and some HD textures)? And If I do fix/change/mod anything, where do I start - what are the recommended patches for SS2?
Give me a hand here, /vr/.
But no spoilers please.

SHTUP is good, Rebirth is trash.
Just use SS2Tool and you'll be fine. Might have to change a config if you can't drag+drop in the inventory.
>>2780650
I only finished it myself a few years ago, all raw, no mods.
It was fine. No 'tearing your ass off amazing', but totally playable and cohesive.
Higher res textures really bring things out tho, like being able to read the techno-gibberish on the monitors are nice thing.
If you can/want to, get HD textures that leave them the same, just in higher resolution.
Also, Im interested in your opinions about it during your playthrou, so keep us updated on yout thoughts about happenings inna game.
What's the most obscure console or game you own?
It's almost 2016 and retro games are the hottest shit since grunge.
Nothing is obscure and the more obscure it was then the bigger entitlement it gives you now.
>>2779561
a nes emulator
Super Mario Bros. / Duck Hunt
You probably haven't heard of it.
What's a game(s) that you have sold in the past that you either instantly, shortly after, or years later regretted selling?
I sold Medieval and Skies of Arcadia a long time ago. Sold them at the same time and are the only games I can think of having sold.
Was lame of me.
>>2778583
I sold my copy of Skies(picked it up cheap after DC's demise) after one play thru. Then a couple years back I got the itch to play again and it was going for $50 at a local game shop! That's one for sure I wish I would of hanged onto.
Sold a lot of SNES and N64 games for like 10 bucks a piece back in 1999/2000 in order to buy Lain VHSs.
I enjoyed watching the series but I miss my Super Mario RPG, Dracula X, Plok and others, and they're hella expensive now.
If you had PlayStation and didn't have this game you really fucked up. Yes that's an enemy lit on fire from my air taser.
The fuck is that
>>2777961
I'll admit that I fucked up, but give us the name of the game, fag.
>>2778231
syphon filter, looks like 2
I'm the only one who feels weird playing retro games on emulator?
Hopefully.
collectorfag bait?
>>2772868
Use the catalog.
At first perhaps I felt like that but haven't in ages now. The thing is to make yourself comfy, if you're immersed enough I don't see how playing on your computer can be a negative experience.
wow these games are shit
>>2775201
LOL
Is this some tryhard bait? Those were incredible. Some people have trouble with Empire cause it's tough, but what on earth is your problem with Super Star Wars?
This feels a lot like an Euro game in design. The way you're always overwhelmed by enemies and projectiles and you have little invincibility time between hits.
The only strategy against bosses seem to be spawn a health extension saber and a bunch of blaster power up items, stand still tanking hits and fire at each other until one of you dies.
>>2775206
It did have great graphics and sound for the time.
The spinning saber jump is great.

What is the original image?
>>2773935
its the ending to streetfighter 2010
dont feel like finding it
>>2773962
Tried to make the same basic thing but without the weird aspect ratio.
Tried playing KOF94 for the first and have no idea how you're expected you're expected to win at single player. All projectiles you throw will be countered in some way. You get anywhere close and they grab. Every normal will be anticipated or blocked. It is Mortal Kombat 3 levels of fuck.
Post fighting games with the worst AI or any games that are deliberately programmed against you winning.
>>2761409
This is why playing against AI in fighting games sucks ass. They can't program AI anywhere near well enough to actually fight strategically. So in order to make playing against the computer actually challenging they have to make the AI opponent read your inputs and react before your move even comes out.
The result is that in order to win, you don't learn good fighting game strategy, you just learn how to cheese the AI. It turns one of the most strategically interesting genres into a set of cheap tricks you do over and over. Playing too much against AI will teach you that's how fighters are supposed to be played.
And that's why a lot of people think they suck and get butt hurt when they eventually do try fighting a human player and get curb stomped.
Don't waste your time anon. If you can't play 2player, just play something else.
>>2761431
Well I know that. It's just that some games are more fucked up than others. I can legit clear Street Fighter II knowing the matchups.
claim your retro waifu before someone steals her
my bae forever.
I will not be ashamed
Gonna play some FF2/Special tonight, who should I main? For some reason I'm tempted by Titzilla, but I really like Billy because I've always liked staffs.
>>2727231
Whoa, dude, you should switch to real bout, fatal fury 2 and 2 special have INSANE hard boss AI on Krauser.
Apparently the true last boss in Special is Ryo Sakazaki from AoF. I've never fought him.

Tell me Why i should play 7th Saga?
If is one of your favorite games, why is it?
it's hard and stuff. like lunar it punishes you for overleveling
>>2787727
I have heard that this game has dedicated fans
I dunno OP, I emulated it a while ago and had fun with it.
Like >>2787727 said, there's a boss that levels with you, and if you're too overleveled he's pretty much broken. But you can beat him by getting lucky with critical hits...
Mystic Ark is more fun, though. The same weird somber/dream-like tone but in a series of absurd worlds rather than a regular fantasy world.
Long story short I have a car stereo that allows me to hook up game consoles via RCA input. Every time I hook it up I'm faced with the desire to hook up a game console, and now that I put it into more of a "family car" (see: people can fit in the back seat) I want to do it finally.
In your opinion what console would be the best? My only qualifications are:
>Would prefer something that will require little to no user interaction as far as turning it on and selecting games go. My ultimate goal is to have it on a toggle switch so everything can be contained in the trunk.
>8bit or newer
>Preferably something that doesn't require a ground
>If it's something that used a DC power supply I'd be pleased because I can directly wire it to the car's electrical
>Money is an object so no NeoGeo or something pricey like that
I'm semi-considering a Wii loaded up with roms, emulators, and a couple programs, but figured I'd see if any of you had input.
Well, OP, which console would you care least about being stolen once your car is inevitably broken into?
>>2786675
Nobody is going to break into a rusty 2003 Taurus with a 15 year old radio in it.
Does anyone here have the Mischief Makers OST in CD form? Im not looking for the .USF soundtrack because as far as I know it lacks one track.
Mischief Makers thread too
>>2786592
I've got it all in mp3, buts that about it

if you search for the cd catalog number you may able to find a download, i know that Headdy, Gunstar Heroes, YuYu Hakasho and Alien Soldier have remixes unique to their cd releases also
Is Faxanadu worth playing?
Definitely, yes.
>>2785838
Do you like adventure games? Yes/No
There's your answer. It's quite good if you like this kind of game.
Yes. Faxanadu is a game that by all rights should be typically gouged & overpriced, yet somehow it's remained a 5 buck title.
Does /vr/ loves Might & Magic , the RPG series ?
Pic related, my favorite game of the series
which one is your favorite?
2. It's so wonderfully broken.
>>2785148
Tried part six.
Got too fucking repetitive. Stopped.
>>2785151
part 6 starts with giants dungeon so I agree it can be very overwhelming at first
