I bought Arc 1 & 3 off of PSN and both of them seem to have some bugs. the first one had a note from one of the songs drone on over other music even after a fight had finished. Arc 3 has frozen 3 times now. anyone know how one would workaround glitches on PSN games? I might try deleting game data utility.

also, general Arc the Lad thread since my question won't get much response and some folks hate emulation. kind of wish 3 still let you have 10 guys on the field instead of four.

My suggestion is download the isos of the collection and play them on pcsx-r or epsxe.

Fuck the emulation haters.

Why couldn't the master just put large numbers of humans into slavery to reproduce and then dip them once they'd produced offspring? Is it because of incest?

What was Half-Life's multiplayer like? I don't play multiplayer shooters anymore but I'm just curious about how it played. I've read Game Boys, but a book about Counter-Strike isn't really a good frame of reference about Half-Life's multiplayer.

It's coming back around. It was criminally hated for like 2 decades after release though which has gotta be some kind of record.

Because it has some serious flaws in a series that's otherwise very easy to play.
>>
>>3488639

Because of its difficulty (in comparison to the rest of the series at least).

Forgot game.
Remember playing it on PC back in 90's.
You play a buff guy who's bald and wears a black and slim sweatshirt of sorts. I think he was wearing sunglasses.
Setting is probably dystopian future.
Played like a movie with events.
Specific parts of levels I remember:
1/ You're at an enemy building and are walking down a long hall way. Above you are bridges that have enemy soldiers walking around. As your character automatically walks you have to move him right or left depending on where the enemy on the bridge will walk in from(right or left) to be unnoticed.
2/ There was a segment where you face a locked door with a keypad. You hide and wait for an enemy come up and enter the code which makes distinguishing beeping sounds like when you dial a phone number. I recall coming up to the keypad later and figuring out the combination based on the sounds the keypad buttons made when pressed.
3/ This one isn't as good but remember running through a narrow hallway shooting enemies. Then getting into a car with a female support character and driving inside enemy complex. You don't control it, it just goes. At the end there's a wall and you need to shoot it or you will crash and die.
Pic related. Replace black guy with white, orange loose shirt with black and slim sweat shirt and that's what protag looks like.

Can you remember the genre? top down or isometric or 2D or 3D?
>>
>>3488627
Not sure exactly of a genre. it just played like an interactive movie. The guy moves himself and you just perform actions like shooting. Camera would change from first person and behind him and under him.

Here's how I remember 1/ scene.
The enemy on the bridge wasn't blue, because I don't remember. Everything in this game was realtively greyish. Point is the camera was behind and slightly below you looking up at the back of your head. Your character keeps moving down the hall and these enemies(blue for sake of seeing them, humanoids) that walk on the bridge and you gotta move opposite direction of where they are going across the bridge to pass undetected. They sort of patrol the base.

Bonk was supposedly the PC-Engine/TurboGrafx's answer to Mario and Sonic. Bonk has basically been a forgotten platformer mascot in the same vein as Alex Kidd.

I personally did not like Alex Kidd, but is Bonk actually good, or is the series forgotten for a reason?

Which is the best of the original PC-Engine/Turbo trilogy?

What games if any made you sick or ill?

After about 30 minutes of playing I'd get dizzy and sick feeling as fuck. No other game made me feel that way.

>>3488206
No retrogames made me feel ill. I played Forsaken so much I became unbeatable online. It's the only game where I have a 100% winrate against other people.

The only game that made me feel physically ill is a modern one.

The original Phantasy Star made me nauseous in the dungeons or it might have just been the intense guilt that my parents had spent like $100 to get me a Master System and that game but it was too hard for me.

Much more recently I've been amused by reports of people playing King's Field and Shadow Tower on field of vision filing displays because those games have real tunneled FOVs which was fine for their genre and on the tvs they expected people to play them on at the time.

Let's discuss Recca's soundtrack. Do you like it?

People seem really divided on it. I like it a lot, there's really nothing else quite like it on the platform. Interested to hear opinions though.

It's an acquired taste. I like it though. It's really unique and interesting considering that everything else is pushing the NES to its limits.

I like it. I'm not sure it's my favorite though.

I don't know if it's fair since that game uses a special chip in the cartridge to almost double the amount of audio channels.

This is not ever happening.

Indies don't have the resources or experience to dedicate the man-hours and professionalism of the devs of yesteryear, and studios today find themselves in a completely different market, where you are no longer the target audience.

Let's consider that the guys who spearheaded Conquer the Stars were fans of Master of Orion, it was essentially a vanity project since they made money hand over fist with World of Tanks, so they were in some ways immunized from these problems. What happened? A casualized MoO2, with shoehorned Civ5 shit. Not that I didn't play the hell out of it.

You can probably look forward to more beer and pretzels, or coffee break type strategy games -- whatever you want to call them.
>>
>>3488098
I've seen a lot of MoO:CtS, and while I don't want to play huge amounts of it right now, if it were brought to tablets? I'd play the SHIT out of it.
