>Difficulty Level: Go Fuck YourselfWhy did the devs do it? Were they angry at the fans?
https://github.com/Trxyebeep/tomb3Anyone use this? Is this a good way to get TR3 working well?
>>12269580People are rightly complaining that the game's level design is boring and doesn't take advantage of Lara's kit, or that the puzzles are boring (backtracking) or full of bullshit (too cryptic).
>>12270696>backtrackingThere's significantly less backtracking in TR3 than TR1 or 2, and definitely less than TR4, specifically because TR3 has "alternate routes" as a design element, meaning you pick one direction and stick with it.I have rarely heard of Tomb Raider 3 being criticized for too much backtracking. Too cryptic? Yes.
>>12269580Man the lighting in the PC version is so fucked.
>>12267714They admitted that they were done with the series already and wanted to do other things. But success forced them to do it.
I recently began playing the Crash Bandicoot games. I cleared the first one and got 100% in it, it was kind of amateurish but I had a good time with it.Crash 2, though, I'm enjoying less. I finished the main story and while it's neat that Crash has more moves he can do, it has kind of huge number of gimmick levels (and the last boss was really easy). And now I'm working on 100%, but it's kind of less fun in that regard, too. There's so much "uhh actually to 100% this level, you have to warp to it from another level, or you have to beat the hard path and then go backwards through the other path and then go back forwards," and on and on. And then on top of that, some crates are hidden offscreen and some warps are in places you'd NEVER check with no indication of them. Still pretty fun though.
>>12267118>huge number of gimmick levelsboy you will not have a good time with warped
>>12267645I 100% Crash Warped thrice and I still have no idea how I was supposed to find Eggipus Rex.
>>12269354Even if you removed those levels from Warped, I doubt the game would improve that much considering how it takes a nose-dive in level design and difficulty. Not to mention how broken you are by the time you reach the fourth and fifth (which should be the hardest by the way)
>>12267118>it has kind of huge number of gimmick levelsWhat are you referring to? Surely you're not confusing this with 3?
>>12267645>secret warps in Crash 3Ok, this is just a bot thread intentionally conflating the games to induce schizophrenia in the goyim or some gay shit.
Can we just admit that NBA Street V3 is the best retro sports game? No one really cares about any other retro sports title.
>>12269824Fifa Street 2 is better in every way, a truly soulful sports game. Which is funny because I never cared for regular Fifa, I was always a Winning Eleven/PES guy.
>>12269824>>12269840I prefer street vol1 but it's really between blitz, NBA Street and Tiger Woods 2004.Notable mentionNBA Jam TENHL HitzNHL 94ESPN NFL 2K5SSX3THPS American WastelandThe BigsKen Griffy Major League Baseball
I liked the one on PS2 that was essentially NFL Blitz but basketball. Best basketball game since NBA Jam TE.
>>12269824I'm most partial to NBA JAM.I have a soft spot for that one arcadey konami international soccer game, and run and gun one.>>12269851Is that even a sport?
>>12270441Soccer Slam is the greatest dive ball game ever.
Shmup, Beat 'em Up and general arcade thread.>What are you working on right now? >What was your last clear?>What will you play next?
>>12269463Play more games lil Morkyfag
>>12269463Gay, but good luck with the 1cc.
Little girls are better than /vr/ at vidya.
>>12267301Is that robonigga her husband? Hot
>>12268587I'm trying for Ikaruga 1CC in easy mode too (dreamcast version), I've gotten to level 5 on one life a couple of times so I need to do some more practice mode.
So if the Playstation was never made do you think the Saturn would have taken its place and obliterated the competition due to being the closest thing to the PSX?Would pic related be possible? Surely the Saturn can do FMVs unlike the n64 but I can't see more 3d oriented ps1 games being successfully made for the Saturn instead of being sent to the n64, I think symphony of the night being ported to Saturn and Megaman Legends to n64 is a good comparison of what I mean
>>12267757Super Tempo mogs most PS1 2D exclusives
>Auster admitting Xtreme was hot trash all alongLol
>>12267495It's actually is a real transparent layer>>12266547This is possible because it's a different VDP2 layer so making it transparent was easy with now downsides and basically freeTechnically the background spotlights drawn by VDP1 could've had their pixels flagged to be made transparent by VDP2 since they're behind every other VDP1 object so I dunno why they didn't do that (only downside is the light wouldn't be brighter where the spotlights cross)Though the foreground spotlight (pic related) needs the checkerboard fake transparency or else it would eat every VDP1 object drawn behind it (sprites)
>>12270019>>Maegawa: It is pretty difficult. Compared to the Saturn I think it's more difficult.Given the context is Yuke Yuke, I'm guessing the reasoning is that 2D on the N64 is less straightforward. No 2D rectangle blits and a VDP2 to handle the fullscreen backgrounds. Have to orthographic project billboards and tesselate.
>>12266116The playstation had such a huge warping effect on the industry that it's impossible to guess. The saturn might've been weaker, the n64 might've switched to cds, who fucking knows.
I don't see the value in "difficult" gamesIt's just button inputs, there's no actual skill and especially no transferable real world skillI don't see how beating a hard game has any value compared to literally any hobby IRLHelp me understand
>>12270474>images(278).jpgIs this one of those chatbot threads?
>>12270474Doing everything on easy mode is for women
>>12270474Difficult games lose their appeal as you get older and have less free time and energy. "I'm going to make you play my game for hundreds of hours just to stretch out the runtime!" I have a job and a mortgage to deal with, and I can't stay up all night just to grind away at a single game. If you want me to spend a lot of time on your game, justify it without artificially lengthening it.
>>12270581I get the appeal of improving and struggle IRL, like scaling a mountainBut to put in so many hours for a videogames arbitrary challenge is insane
>>12270684how many hours will you spend arguing with a wall about it
I just started Final Fantasy Tactics for the first time and I'm already in love.
>>12268674Damn, he really is savage about it
>>12269989
>>12269089Is this manchild serious?Is he going to cry about how men can't be called beautiful and must be called handsome next?
>>12269989Based fat ugly bastard.
>>12270565At least he's not defending tranny remakes. That makes him a superior human.
It's holiday weeks ahead and we're all gonna gather with family and friends.What games are you planning to play on multiplayer for the occassion?I'm having a lot of Sega Saturn fun (mostly Capcom fighters) with my friends and cousins
>>12268638Based arquitecto
>>12262740antisocial logic
>>12262740How else are you supposed to reproduce.
>>12270271why the fuck would i want that?
>>12270275Based archon starver.
Thunder Force V? Better on Sega Saturn of course.
I can't find my CD-R of this game and it angers me
PS1 version is better you can switch weapons much more easily
>>12266108Are you going to keep posting low effort Sega Saturn threads until the day you die? Because I can help you get there sooner if you like.
>>12269324You can't kill anyone, virgin
>>12266108What the FUCK were they thinking here?
>>12263597yummy
>>12263108Nice hat
>>12270665forgot that was a thing on christmas. got rid of that bullshit years ago
>>12265556Your mom is a retard
>>12263108Who knows? I used to think NES Goombas looked like birds thinking the body was a beak.
Oh. My. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!
>>12270117>Shalomhuh?
>>12270117So I think we all know that the game has a demo vid showing you how to beat the tutorial but what about the manual? Does the manual teach the moves? I got the game second hand without the manual so I wouldn't know.
You need to do it in order to know how to play the game. The game is difficult enough as it is and you will be using everything on the list.
>>12270119Don't you be pissing on hospitality now.

I'm looking for a Gen 2 mod and even Emerald mod that allows QoL enhancements, but doesn't go full retard adding in pokemon from newer gens, or things that weren't in their respective gens. Would the legacy games be good for this or is there something better?
>>12260110I never played Emerald Legacy but Yellow and Crystal were pretty good
>>12260128Cry about it
>>12265961>>12265982I will go ahead and say, after some time my cousin who is much more into pokemon than I am said that he was not a fan of some of the new typings and found them sort of nonsensical in this hack. Didn't hate them, but he just didn't like them either. Just something to keep in mind. I personally didn't notice them myself, but I also more or less cut out around gen 4 so my memory on a lot of this stuff is sorta blurry.also, merry Christmas errybody!
>>12260110Crystal 251 and Emerald essence
Polished Crystal Faithful is what you seek.
Any other fellow anons from those countries can give me their experiences with retrogaming (growing up, popular games, collecting or emulating in current day, etc..).All I know is that the PS2 is still incredibly popular there, would like to know if Sega, Atari or the OG Xbox had their fans.

>>12264961Based find

>>12264950Can confirm, I remember an issue where in SOS (the cheats segment) they copy pasted fake codes from GameFaqs in the exact same format and wording.
the NEOGEO Pocket was really colorful, but there was no way to beat Nintendo. Also it's surprising to me that every Japanese company had their own cute mascot, even Namco had Pac man, but SNK got nothing, terry doesn't count for obvious reasons. How did they think they were gonna compete?
>>12265687>but SNK got nothingThe Neo Geo mascot man is named G-Mantle.
>>12267528Neato!
>>12267528And that would sell your consoles? Doubt it.
>>12265687>but SNK got nothing,>forgetting their secondary pop mascotFucking Retard.

Discuss anything involving Wii homebrew for playing retro games.Right now I'm using the Retroarch Hexaeco build for games and it's been working very well so far with everything I've tried (Neo Geo was the only core that I tried that had crashes and it was with the big games like KoF2002).
>>12270256Open gx as far as wiisxrx is concerned is an experiment dude. Thats why you shit and piss and complain about sotn looking fucked up. You're not supposed to use it.
>>12270340Re-read properly, pajeet.
>>12269215>$120 bucks + additional hardware + time>for a mediocre emulation boxyou might as well just buy a mister at that point
>>12270348Explain yourself properly retard.
