Is it a meme to overprocess your games just to try and trigger people now -- this is NOT what FF7 looks like lol

>>4192067
The PSN version for PS3 and PS4 look like that.

crying rn

I've got one that I picked up for £5 cos the woman thought it was a CD player. It came with Liberation which makes no sense to me. I also have a disc of 100 Amiga 'classics' which is just Commodore 16 games... I really don't think anything 'decent' came out on it. For me, it's just an oddity that I picked up hella cheap.

Zool 2 is great.

How common are CD32s in the UK? I know they were released in Canada (not in the US unfortunately), but the only relevancy they had was in the UK.

To clarify:
>Also, what was the first 2D platform game to implement sloping surfaces on a home console system or personal computer?

>>4191024
First game I can think of is marble madness, but don't know about platformers. Didn't Mario 3 have slopes?

Ghouls n ghosts came out a year before and also had inclines.

Was I the only one that liked War Zone more than the aki games?

>he had a PS1
Lol.

WWF Royal Rumble best retro wrastlin' of all time. World Championship Wrestling is honorable mention status.

what's that thing

>>4190908
>Anon uploads a mod that replaces Pain Elementals with Cacodemons

Wouldn't it be a better idea to just make the meatball shoot lost soul projectiles as in they're just projectiles that explode on impact instead of actual lost souls?

I've never been able to get the hang of it, which is a shame since it seems awesome.

>>4190614
Why would anyone attack magic items?

Oh god, I love ZZT!!!!!!

Doubt they bothered to add anything. Probably didn't even fix the boss fights.

>>4190480

How do you select Azuki in single player mode? I've seen vids of people using her. But starting the game selects Raita by default.

>>4190507
What's wrong with the boss fights?

>>4190343

VR doesn't know much about this thing

>>4190654
Darn. Neither does the internet. There was a guy here a couple of weeks ago who bought one and said that he was going to post the results when it arrived.

I guess I'll have to go the expensive route and buy scart to component to play mame authentically.

If I were putting VGA into a project enclosure that had component outputs and having trouble I'd probably try using crt_emudriver, soft15khz or even the defauly drivers to feed it a 15khzsignal. That's assuming I had a VGA cable and a DC power supply plugged into it. Maybe 12v? 5v? I'd probably start with 5, both tip polarities then move up to 12... Maybe at 500mA to start. I mean, I've never been the most cautious about plugging my jacks into mystery boxes but better safe than sorry amirite?

Essentials:
>Original Doom trilogy (Ultimate, II, Final)
>BUILD Big 3 (Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, Shadow Warriow)
>Quake (Quake II is very decent but not as good, wouldn't call it an essential. Quake III for the greatest arena shooter mp ever made)

Also be sure to check out fan expansions for these games which in many cases have far surpassed the original games. For example check out Scythe 1&2 for Doom or Death Wish for Blood. Doom's fan made megawads are just about the greatest single player FPS experience you can have 2bh. There's also so many of them, too, it's brilliant. You will NEVER run out of shit to play. Check out the official expansions for the games as well, Duke Caribbean is meant to be very good.

Pretty much everything else is optional. You can try other stuff like Half-Life + Expansions, Unreal, or bollocks like Hexen/Heretic if you just wanna see what boredom plays like in 2.5D FPS form. You can try Wolfenstein and Blake Stone if you wanna see pre-Doom FPS. There's also RPG poop like Deus Ex and System Shock if you for some reason enjoy the shit gameplay mechanics that come with every RPG. There are some N64 shooters like GoldenEye and Perfect Dark that aren't bad if you don't mind the old control system. Turok 1&2 are okay, whatever, and have PC releases. NESfag will tell you about Powerslave and Redneck Rampage Rides again. Actually if you like NAM that much most of this shit will probably blow you away. Glhf.

>>4190297
does it ain't me start playing?

>>4190297
this makes me nostalgia and wish i hadn't thrown out all my boxes and jewel cases and stuff for nam, shadow warrior, system shock, blood, and stuff like that
i got system shock in a bargain bin for like two dollars when i was 16 or so, i had no idea what i was in for

they can, but to be honest what's the point? Shooters aren't exactly a genre known for innovation. You can only do so much with that framework. RTS games too.

If you want fast and fluid games, I think you need to experience new genres.

The silly idea that more realism makes for better games.

>>4190129
CoD has tons of breaks from reality though

Also D2, D Warp Games discussion. D2 is probably my favorite Dreamcast game. Wish it would be upscaled to PC like D was

Should I just play it on the gpd xd on Reicast or play on a the win on an emulator?

If it's running okay why would you change platforms and lose your save game? Great game by the way, my favorite Eno game even if that makes me a filthy casual.

Same for Super Metroid when you compare it to Metroid on the NES, but it actually helps with the atmosphere without impacting gameplay much.

Metroid II on the other hand...

>>4189437

What is going on with the pose in 8? In 7 Mega has clenched fist, and a scowl. Looks like he's gonna kick some ass. In 8, he's just starring off into nothing, and his hands are sorta half open. He looks like a doll, not even something alive.

>>4189476
>He looks like a doll, not even something alive.
Well he is a robot...

My uncle had this game when I was a kid, but I never made much progress in it. If I strayed too far from the starting town, I got annihilated, and more often than not, my digimon turned into something crappy. Sometimes literally crappy.

>>4189115
I know that feel, this game blows your head at the very beginning. I still dont understand how do I make progress by evolving to Numemon (green slime) over and over xD
