"less than a month ago" is an extremely low bar for determining someone's activity, and assuming you're talking about a match fightcade, doesn't really mean anything in terms of being active in the community

Resident Evil 3 is the best game in the classic PS1 trilogy

>The QTEs make sense and are tense, Nemesis stalkings are intense and escalatory, blowing through hordes of zombies, completing a bunch of interesting puzzles really one of the best bursts of resident evil there is
>No love story, not much of new lore in it - just pure action and survival.
>UBCS (Carlos, Nikolai and Mikhail), and they're still hopeful about helping evacuate civilians. You can also read about this in the files scattered around. However, once Jill reaches the Clock Tower and Park, you find communications (between UBCS and Umbrella, and also between their office branches) that the whole Raccoon City operation was sacked, that the military are going to nuke everything and there's no way Umbrella can dissuade them anymore (you find this fax in an improvised HQ at the graveyard). They change objectives from evacuating civilians to just evacuating executives and copying leftover files. Everyone should find a way to escape by the deadline, or they'll be on their own.
>Jill being able to visit the police station, Clock tower, the park, most of the side areas like the gas station or the newspaper building, the factory
>Nemesis seems unkillable on the first go, but gives you a reward every time you kill him
>choices are more than just "route A - route B"
>crafting allows for flexibility of the guns you fancy this round
>Bonus Eagle & Western Custom M37
>Nemesis has 900 HP for Carlos instead of 800
>You want STARS? I'll give you STARS.

>>12643182
I disagree. After we are treated to a fantastic opening cut scene we get a slide show of Jill sitting around in a tube top with her thumb up her ass watching the city burn. Everything up to the RPD is under whelming and the RPD itself was badly underutilized to the point that Jill should not have even stepped foot in it.

The game hits its stride after exiting the RPD the Clock Tower. The QTEs make sense and are tense, Nemesis stalkings are intense and escalatory, blowing through hordes of zombies, completing a bunch of interesting puzzles really one of the best bursts of resident evil there is.

Then the game hits the skids at the hospital and never recovers. The park sucks, gravenagger sucks, the bridge sucks, dead factory sucks, piss valve fight sucks, block puzzle Malaysia sucks.

Solid and fitting closing cutscenes tho! Epilogues suck.

The nemesis fights are very frustrating because the dodge mechanic doesn't work well half the time, particularly in tight areas.
You'll dodge but since there is no space she'll just dodge and stay in range and get smacked or grabbed, so at some point I just gave up on dodge and just manually dodge everything because I could not count on it to work as intended.
I noticed how you didn't actually mention the combat which is on purpose probably because when the thing that distinguishes this game from others is not pulled off properly, that is a big blow to the game.
Also the level design is not as tight as in the first RE nor as big as the second, it's in this weird middle ground where it does neither as well while also not introducing anything new.
It's still a good game but there is clear reason why this one is talked about the least.

So I just finished the first Tomb Raider, 4/10 game at times it almost starts getting fun but tedium and cheapness prevents it from actually being enjoyable for very long.
The camera was terrible, the controls are sluggish and delayed.
The combat is bare bones and braindead yet obnoxious because enemies have real movement unlike Lara's clunky, slow self and are hp sponges, if they get on top of you or corner you they can tear through your hp in seconds.
There are ambushes everywhere in absurd places and the final level was one of the worst I've ever played, insta-death trial error room after room after room and so on.
The visuals are also terrible, from the models, to the environments to the tile texturing being the worst I've ever seen.
My question is this. Is the first game the rough draft that the series builds on to a competently made series or is this it, is this what Tomb Raider is?

This is the kind of thing that's possible and maybe even becomes intuitive if you've played classic TR enough but still honestly isn't going to be easy for the average player even after completing 1-5.
The only thing you accomplish by expecting new players to be that good straight away is to push them away from playing these games.
>>
So I just finished a level where it's bringing more enemies back but the difference is that only one enemy actually dropped one ammo drop and every other one dropped nothing.
There were quite a few of them too.
So is this normal or does the game have some kind of adaptive difficulty?
It's weird that suddenly the game has just switched things up like this and is no longer operating under the same rules.
Right off the bat in this level it's ramping up the enemies again too.

there's absolutely trial and error but it's not a bad thing
>>
>>12642882
There's no adaptive difficulty at all. Some enemies just drop items, some don't. It's always a good idea to walk over their corpses and press the action button to see if there's anything hidden under them since sometimes it's hard to tell.
Protip if you haven't figured it out on your own yet: You can usually avoid getting shot by enemies with guns if you run up close and roll behind them right as they begin to aim. They'll have to reposition to aim again, giving you some time to shoot them a bit. Repeat until they're dead.

Someone just left this 36 inch CRT at the end of their driveway for anyone to take. So I did. Was this a good find?I'm new to the whole CRT thing.

So what's a good S-Cable to get for my PS2 Slim?
>>
>>12642835
insurrection industries seems to be the most recommended, I use a tomee s-video cable for ps1 that also works with ps2/3 multi-out, it seems to be ok but it has a composite and s-video out so it might have a degraded s-video signal. I have it set up with a switcher on ps1 so you can swap quickly between composite and s-video for different games

The Variety tv series "Game Center CX" has been around since 2003, covering a variety of retro video games, from the 1980s and onwards. Given taht it's been on the air for over 20 years, it is remarkable how many major games they have not highlighted yet. Which do you think is the most egregious and wish do you wish to see the most on the show before its end?

>cue trist theme
I got my battle chest in 2001. Why play modern blizzard slop when this masterpiece is still up and bNet is up? Ladder just starter last Friday. Come play one of the best games of all time while it's still up. 26 years. That's history. That's legacy. That's true GOAT status. Legendary status.

Modern developers don't have anywhere near the talent or skill to make a game this good anymore. Why play modern blizzslop? Why play d3 or 4 when they are cheap rip offs? Why play soulless slop like resurrected when the GOAT is still up and running? All D2R did was give it the same crap graphics every other game has. Not original. Not cool. Not inspiring. Just a cheap cash grab. Yes the stash is better. Who cares when it's soulless garbage?

Play D2 Legacy because who knows how long it will be around for. For the nostalgia. For the based early 2000s era graphics. It feels more real. It plays more real. The experience is vastly superior to all modern blizzslop. Lots of helpful players to gear you up. Very friendly. Head to Junk Drop Inn room and start a new char today.

I'm not sure if you guys are paid shills or just pathetic losers, but this shit is trash and if you play it you haven't played the real game.

If you watch some cheap remake of Citizen Kane, you didn't watch Citizen Kane. If you watch the shot for shot remake of Psycho, you didn't watch Psycho. If you watch a Casablanca remake, you didn't watch Casablanca. This is accepted truth in every field but Video Games, because most other mediums aren't so infested with pathetic shills who think media from 20 years ago is too challenging for them.
