but you knew the hyperspace beast was active
you should have bought some defense at your colony
and many small ships with missiles are better than a battleship in the early game

>>3935974
You are doing it wrong. You make 1 ship with thick armor and shields. This is gonna be your tanking ship. And then you build tons of little ships with 2 shot rocketlaunchers, maybe add the special equipment to shoot 2 times in a turn.

This is your devastator fleet.

In battle let go of all the missiles, while flying your big armored ship in front. After that, warp out the rocket ships and wait for the missiles to destroy the enemy. If there are still enemies around after that, warp out your last ship and rinse and repeat until the enemy is done.

There are also others like Order of the Griffin and Warriors of the Eternal Sun, but I've not played them so I don't know if they're any good.

btw im clearly talking about PC version and i refuse to play the N64 one, don't even try that

Sounds like a typical issue with games that uses CD audio tracks? Use Alcohol and mount that if you aren't using a physical CD. I used to use WinCDEmu but those virtual drive programs never get CD audio working. Alcohol works though.

>>3935838
i was using daemontools and i had no problem with other games. I also tried "virtual clonedrive" because i had in installed, neither worked. Will try alcohol i guess.

More like Sol-Feaces.

I did that a while ago. If you feel like playing the game again, might as well go for the perfect run while you're at it.

>die
>instantly turn off game
>start again from last save

That's how I did it.

>>3929762
Might as well save state.

>>3928917
>Do the math!

I liked Croc.

I don't know about better than Mario, it was a bit too stiff for that.. But, still a very good and high quality game for the time.

I played a demo on the PS1, and then later owned it on PC.

>Expensive as fuck, and it shined like, for a 2 years of 1991/1990 or so, immediately to be dethroned by PC
You're thinking of something else. The Amiga was released in '85, it was far cheaper than the competition, and it *shone* for 5 or 6 years. IT was bad choices by Commodore that killed it, not the competition. And the Amiga has admittedly obscure technical capabilities that today's computer's still can't match - look up the Copper, and it's abilities to interrupt video frames, for one.

It has a ton of amazing and unique games, even though none of them are europlatformers, beat-em-ups or fighting games.

>It has a ton of amazing and unique games
Well, maybe not a ton, because even then games were ported. But there are cases when the Amiga version is unquestionably the best one.

>>3925053
In it's day the Amiga also had far better sound capabilities than pretty much any PC that didn't have a high end professional sound module.

There's a story based 1v1 fighter on the PC Engine. You play as Goku against 6 different opponents in the story, and there's cutscenes identical to the show

It's kinda weird, some kind of real time turn based fighter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yM4ubAMRTcs

There's also the Mega Drive game that is similar to Butouden series, and has characters from the Frieza and Android sagas

Hyper Dimension is the best. I'm also fucking good with Vegeta.

Always wanted to play that PCE one.

>>3895264
I'm slightly lean toward Super Butoden 2 as my favorite, but HD definitely comes second, it's amazing, and the sprite art is ridiculously good.
I wonder why such a good game was made for the SFC; it was a very late release in 1996, and it came after the failure on PS1 that was UB22.

Fun dungeon crawler even now, at least until Baya Malay Tower. The SMS Power re-translation/convenience hack helps this a lot. I wish the major late-game bosses weren't so dependent on luck, but oh well.

>>3822472
Hell yeah.
NES doesnt hold a candle to the graphics of Phantasy Star

>>3822502
Yeah snd Sega only needed to release 4 different consoles!

Four Swords is basically a mini game compared to adventures. They are not the same game at all.

Different games.

Never played the GBA one but iirc it's just a small 4 dungeons bonus based on ALLTP.

The GC is a full game. I highly recommend it in coop if you have at least one other freind who's into Zelda and if you have each a GBA and a Link cable. It doesn't top FF:Crystal Chronicles in that regard, but it's really good. These two games are the sole reasons I still keep my GC around, because the co-op only works on GC, not on Wii.

>>3943634

This. You're confused as all hell, OP. FSA merely references some events from FS.

>>3942150
Terrible because it's the easier levels?

>>3942150
those are literally git gud mechanics

>>3942150
I'm not seeing any game mechanics outlined here, just level design.

Pretty sure the Mega Mans, Secret of Evermore and Castlevania IV are pretty pricey.
Some others might be as well but those ones im sure of.

I didn't even remembered i actually had battletoads
I feel kinda proud

>>3940075
Thanks anon
I was wondering about that black
Killer Instinct (pal)
Also obviously everything here is (pal) except for the two (usa) games at the bottom right
Mega man x2 (usa)
and Battletoads (usa)
Anyone ?

It's hard picking a favorite because my first one was Mystical Ninja 64 and it remains my favorite, it got Goemon's wacky style and humor just right, the characters and story are hilarious and the ending is genius. The game also happens to be one of the best 3D adventure games of 5th gen, despite some people thinking it has "aged" because of no camera control, but I think it works fine, never had trouble with this game.
From the 2D ones, It's a hard choice between GG4 and GGA

I liked the one of the SNES for the coop play, and it was generally a pretty fun platformer. Had some good dungeons such as the one that would rotate the whole room.

The first one on the N64 was a solid adventure game with a frustrating camera. Not enough to ruin it since at least the it always refocuses behind the character.

/vr/ is full of trend whores, and wannabes who pretend not to be. So any discussion of a game that's not a "classic" isn't going to happen here.

Unless a fad starts, an e-celeb makes a video, or the price gets too high...
Then contrarian mode will kick in and the wannabes will jump down your throat for mentioning anything remotely popular at all.

Oh. And NEVER have an original thought, or admit to even playing a newer game, because yoi'll get called a fad 'gamer' and get generalized at..

Hope your thread turns out good thoigh.
