>>12080345>Nooooo other people should only do thinks *I* like!Do it yourself
>>12080345>I'm untalented and ungrateful and I think the hard working modders should do what interests ME instead.Fuck off faggot.
>>12080345This is a genuinely practical way to learn about parallel computing and have fun doing it. What a joyless fool you are!
>>12073431I'm fairly sure it had some slowdowns.
>>12073437>>12080638It must have been really mind blowing at the time because normally your character would just die if they fell into water.
How would you rank their games in each genre? For example:>fightingSNES > Genesis > PCE>shmupsPCE > Genesis > SNESEtc.Add-on (PCE CD, Sega CD / 32X, Satellaview) games included in their libraries.
>>12082127>What is worth playing on pc engine? I never played it at all.Play the shmups since there's no language barrier, try the Star Soldier games.
>>12080693They do
>>12082149The entire Megaman series?GnG on both consoles
>>12082127I really liked Dungeon explorer games and the Y's seriesCastlevania and Legendary Axe
>>12079564>>RPG>SNES > PCE > MDMD Shadowrun and Buck Rogers mog any JRPGslop the PCE has to offer
Post characters you like to play as because of their gripping storyline and/or objective gameplay superiority.

>>12081994Patrician.
>>12082023She's good though? Can steal items and does a lot of damage.
>>12080525Why does she only show her feet in Fatal Fury and SF6, anyway?
I dislike when people regard the "I like playing the female protag option because I like looking at a cute girl while I play games" defense as some agp cope, because they cite some decade old meme of "i'd rather stare at a woman's ass than man's ass, hurr hurr" and think everyone is locked in at ogling ass every frame of gameplay. I'm still looking at the world and enemies, and I'm probably locked in harder than any fag thinking constantly about his need to express his burgeoning masculine heterosexuality by playing as hairy dwarves or whatever. People who constantly feel the need to inwardly and outwardly reject a little eyecandy now and then are weak as fuck.I just see a cute female form and get a small dopamine hit, no need to unsheath my ten inch cock and goon perpetually while playing video games. Women are just fucking beautiful and nice to look at, dumbass.
Or how 1 leak destroyed the entire SOA narrativeFuck kalinske and Sega of america you killed Sega
>>12081734There was at least 6 to 12 different companies manufacturing computer chips in the USA during the 1990s. That includes Intel, AMD, IBM, Motorola, Texas Instruments, and several others. Your information is just wrong.
>>12081454Square was butthurtbabout cartridge costs and hated nintendo and jumped on immediately
>>12081396The Saturn also got 3rd party support, point being?
>>12081454Sony didn't need those because their console was the best to make for and sold the most.
>>12081454Sony didn't need video game IPs in 1994.They had development hardware that was both well-documented and easy to use and that was all they needed to succeed.
It's October. Time to play TICKLE TICKLE.
>>12081185i tried the 3do version after playing the pc remaster out of curiosity, i do not recommend it
>>12081532The biggest push for me is the initial ghost scene placement and order. It's tough because it doesn't play as well as the PC versions.
>>12081532someone here could have told you that.the 3DO areas are just big mazes. the PC version has actual level design.
What am I in for?
An encounter with inca people.

https://youtu.be/E_tbYX7f790?si=WFTMc-J-TbLIMuRuIt a text adventure game.
Normally id post this in the doom thread but I wanted to make a post about this game. Playing strife with gzdoom and you know what. This game is amazing. Its got some shooting some rpg elements talking and a story. Its really really good. Worth playing. Get the wads and fire up gz doom vr bros
>>12079846Hell yeah man that's amazing
>>12080247Slightly. Even with full upgrades the weapons would still recoil as if they were drunk.
>>12079185there should be more games in the medieval tech post apocalypse genre.
>>12080870Agree.
>>12080870What do you even call this style? Medievalpunk?
What Classic Mega Man Robot Master is the toughest to beat for (you) without exploiting his vulnerability?
I like Roll.
>>12073920Dynamo, Burner, or Slash

I wish Roll got her official giant evil boss battle, as was planned.More giant cuties are always welcome
>gbc game is a rts with mecha fighting in feudal japan What were they smoking to come up with this?

>>12077447>>gbc gamefrom screenshot its GB mono?

Has anyone bothered to figure out the response time of the Game Gear and other handhelds? I don't care that much about the original Game Boy since it had official TV output, but it feels like I didn't really beat the game if I play Game Gear and other handheld games on an emulator without having to deal with the original screens' ghosting. I've seen handheld LCD shader options to adjust the response time, but it's useless without any measurements to go by.
>>12081507Then why post in the thread for any reason other than calling OP a faggot?
>>12081496Most of 4chan is autistic ESL's at this point. They barely understand English and that's why you see so much sperging and seething about completely irrelevant shit. They genuinely don't know what they're reading or saying. Running everything through ChatGPT only makes them even more retarded and incoherent.
>>12081131>I've seen handheld LCD shader options to adjust the response time, but it's useless without any measurements to go by. Isn't there an "Accurate" option? That one supposedly replicates the original screen's ghosting.
>>12081131As a kid, the only time I ever noticed ghosting on the GG screen was one time I left it out in the car overnight and it got really cold. The blur couldn't have been too bad normally or Sonic would have been impossible to play.
>>12081859What shader? I haven't seen any GG-specific ones preinstalled on RetroArch.
Hey, what do you guys recommend to be a good catch all console type for ALL retro consoles (if such a thing exists). I know how to run emulators but I want my kids to have fun playing vidya before it became a gay political speaking piece. Also, fuck no Im not letting them on my battle station because I also run a business and have important dox. I see a bunch of shit for sale on amazon but if its anything like my retro console player it sucks ass. Thank you for any helpful advice. Lastly,>Xbox 360 is now "retro"Fuck Im getting old. Nigga I remember my coleco vision, printer and all. Should have never ever sold it.
>>12082019What i was thinking if you have at least 3 hours to put in, you could program a Raspberry PI to turn it into an all out retro console that can run anything(almost), there are even premade cards and software in case you don't want to put much effort but the right amount to make it work.https://retropie.org.uk/https://www.raspberrypi.com/
Does SotN have some of the most needlessly complicated game mechanics relative to its difficulty? You never really need to interact with any of them, and the most basic setup will get you through the game. Did you know that weapons have a strength requirement? Yep, if your STR is lower than the weapon's attack value, you only get HALF the strength bonus. Spell damage is calculated with 20% of your innate INT, plus 80% of your bonus INT (relics or equipment). Meaning a character with 10 INT stat, plus bonus equipment for 10 INT, gets a spell casted for 10 INT. You get DARK elemental weapons, but TWO enemies are weak to DARK (Richter and Sniper of Goth). Likewise, you get Holy mail to protect you from attacks from those two enemies. You can use potions or spells to protect you against all sorts of elements, but other than a few rather obvious lightning or fire attacks from bosses, I wouldn't hazard a guess what most attacks elements even are to begin to use it. Who does Dark damage? The relationship between CON and DEF is convoluted and involves square roots. Enough said. There's the whole elemental issue, but so few weapons that actually USE them meaning it's difficult to do any damage that isn't HIT or CUT. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0IfAqyOFQk
>random ass enemies drop the best rings... totally NOT designed to sell guide books btw.
>>12081736why does only the giant skeleton have a drop exclusive to replay files? like you think either there'd be none or more
>>12081792In the original game it's called the Skull Ring. Yeah, it's likely just a bonus end-game equipment for replays, nto meant for normal regular play. Also meant to be a super secret item for people who bought the guidebooks. There's one of them in the normal castle specifically so you can farm them for it.
This isn't a translation issue as people assume, it looks like they either forgot to program it in, or it was bugged. I'm curious what the actual code says.
>>12081736>>12081798>designed to sell guide booksDo you guys realize there's a monster encyclopedia in the librarian menu where it shows all items that can be dropped by monsters? Anyone trying to complete it would find those items
GOOOOOOD MORNING /VR/Let's talk about Vietnam War Games.
>Vietnam war games thread>againThe war is over, OP. Let's go home.
>>12081804
>>12081804The computer in this game is honestly horrible. I like everything else about the game (especially the music).
>>12081848How is the port compared to the PC version?
>>12081923they purposefully dumbed down the AI intelligence and damage to make it more like a run and gun medal of honor type game instead of a tactical shooter. some of the levels are cut down or missing all togheter also it advertises new levels but they are actually just taken from the multiplayer or quick fight mode on the PC.
Classic Castlevania, the series where everyone likes one game and absolutely hates the rest despite them all being variants of the same exact gameplay. Which is your favorite? I must admit as someone who never was into it growing up trying to get into it has been hilarious since the "fandom" is the biggest gaggle of hipster pseudo gamers I've witnessed yet
>>12079537Bugs or Woody
>>12078164That's not a good game. It's just a shameless, unoriginal GoW clone.
>Rondo>"pre-anime"
>>12081234It's also the worst of classic
>>12077109>Classic Castlevania, the series where everyone likes one game and absolutely hates the rest despite them all being variants of the same exact gameplay.You're clearly mixing up SotNtards with classicvania fans.
Are these games unfairly hated? For some reason, I’ve always seen Gex thrown in the same trash bin as Bubsy, but honestly these are not bad games. My only real gripe is with the first one, because it seems like they tried to do a momentum platformer a la DKC but the run feature just doesn’t work great. It’s also extremely punishing with Gex’s hitbox being enormous. It’s still an alright time though.2 and 3 are legitimately fun collectathons.And the humor? I found most of the jokes land, and the ones that don’t are carried by the sheer absurdity of the voice acting and delivery.All in all, I like this gecko.
>>12080225As for 3 - I might as well reply to >>12078712I dislike 3 way more than 2 because>fucking tutorial butler is everywhere and never shuts up (reminds me of Spyro and Medievil sequels that also added annoying sidekicks who never shut up)>game looks visually worse than 2 (maybe just aesthetics, but I do feel like it's more plastic than 2)>collectathon galore (intentional by devs because they wanted to copy Banjo-Kazooie)>base collectibles went from golden fly (1) to level-themed ones (2) to golden fly again (3) - weird but okay>every level (if I'm not mistaken) now has a fucking gimmick, even if gliding is the most common one>did they cut composer's salary or something because 2 had four unique boss themes while 3 has only one theme shared between all three of themhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vh2LAafEw38https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjCqfk7es7I>some levels are just too long and not fun to play through (looking at you, Anime Channel)>why the fuck devs wanted to put more plot in Gex series is beyond me (and not like anyone cared because it was the last game anyway)
>>12078515Note to self: don't drink tap water at Jerry Garcia's.
>>12078515i only played the n64 3d one. it was alright. i liked the different level themes. my favorite was the kaiju themed boss fight.i didn't like when they started reusing level theme ideas though. i think the final boss was kinda stupid and uninspired too but most 3d platformers at the time didn't have particularly great boss fights anyway.
>>120787123rd game's collectibles are nightmare to collect. that's probably why.
>>12078515>Are these games unfairly hated?Fairly mediocre, FTFY
