ITT: Developer logos that you like.
>>12436798Drawing and image manipulation tools have actually existed since very early in computers' existence. Smooth brush and smoothing/smudging tool.It's really surprising to see how old technologies like graphics tablets actually are.
>>12433752>>12433802>>12434123There's not a single greater decrease in soul in history than when they switched to that "Tt" logo.>>12435959He was originally going to be the star of the game Haven: Call of the King on PS2, but the final product has some human dude instead.https://www.rodneymatthewsstudios.com/blogs/matthews-musings/a-logo-come-to-life-or-not-haven-call-of-the-king

I'm at the point now where I have some consoles that aren't working well and probably just need a clean or something. Any recommendations for a screwdriver set that'll essentially cover all bases, I know a few SEGA and Nintendo consoles / carts use some uncommon screws. I've heard people say pic related (iFixit) is good but not sure if it would cover everything you'd need? Mainly got Saturn, Gamecube and Game Gear acting up but I'll probably need it for my PS1/2, Xbox, N64 soon enough and would like to be able to open up my old Game Boy carts as well.
>>12435696I bought it on clearance for $40 if I recall. Compressed air cans were costing me almost $8 each at the time.
>>12435132I use a similar one to this, mine is a little older but it works fine. Magnet is a little weak but it's not bad. Has every weird tip bit you need for everything from nes to xbox to ps5.
i have so much dust in my room how the fuck do i stop this
>>12435767Is it thin enough to get into deeper holes, like the back of a Dreamcast?
>>12437184No, I stack a Philips 2 and a hex socket bit into each other to reach those screws. If the screw wells are very narrow and deep I do have longer drivers but 98% of the time I get by with that kit.
This is a fun shmup but I can't beat this, it's too hard.Not even swapping to easy helps, in fact I don't even know what changes!

>Taking out by the IRS I mean I get it. But it's still anticlimactic
>>12434457No way, fag.
objectively speaking these are the biggest achievements in the medium. They might not be your personal favorites but they are the greatest games in terms of innovations, influence, legacy, and lasting impact on the player. nothing had a bigger impact on gaming when it came out than these 5 games
thanks you guys, I see the light now and no longer enjoy FFVII.
>>12427006Let me fix that list for you OP.Doom and Super Mario Bros are easy ins. Agreed.I would add Minecraft, love it or hate it, it changed gaming. Basically invented the survival crafting genre, and was the first major pioneer of early access neverending development. I would also say it was the first indie game to truly go big in the internet era. I would say pick an earlier RPG than FF7. Maybe earthbound? Or Just an older Final Fantasy. The genre was well established long before FF7 came along. Replace Mario 64 with Gran Turismo to get some racing/simulator representation. Thats my input that nobody cares about.
>>12436939>It's the same level of brilliance as the opening shot of Star Wars.Yeah but what was "revolutionary" about it?It's a really good introduction, one of the best in videogame history in my opinion.But how is it a "revolution" to use FMV technology to implement a 2-minute opening cutscene that's effectively on par with hollywood movies from 2 decades prior?There was a revolution happening in videogames, but it wasn't kicked off by Final Fantasy 7 it was kicked off by the explosion of 3D graphics hardware in the early 90s, and development of vastly cheaper and better storage. Final Fantasy 7 was just an early example to deliver on the potential, by adding a shitload of spectacle to an otherwise strict JRPG formula game.
>>12437068FFVII is a great game, it just wasn't revolutionary.
>>12436104Right, so Quake is a good tech demo. No one ITT has said anything about its actual gameplay because it's just another take on the Doom formula that everyone was doing.
Favorite Java/J2ME games?
Some of these Gameloft games also got ports to the DSi.And yes, this is a Castlevania clone.
The Blood+ phone game. Pretty decent for an action game made on Java.
I be playin dat Rayman wit dem rabbids back in da day, straight Sonic ripoff but cool as fuck doe. Dat and Rayman Kart.
First time I saw this game I was legit amazed by it, 3D graphics on a phone game was something I really wasn't expecting to see.
Freakin' sweet a Family Guy game for mobile devices!
there's a whomp-em hack with shovel knight that is very good (just visuals) mariomon is a full monster catcher jrpg with mario characters
What's your favorite fatality in all Mortal Kombat games?
>>12433741>still culturally relevantNot anymore, the last one failed to impress in the long run and it's abandoned.
This, because I accidentally discovered it myself.
>>12433584yeah she was a real milfmom i'd like to friend
>>12429578I always thought brutalities were the coolest.
>>12436897I always thought they were brutal
Do you refer to levels as stages, fields or maps?
Do you refer to OP as a fag? I do.
>>12435390Zones
>>12435390Maps - the environment of a stageStage - a progression segmentField - never use it

is RGB video REALLY all that much better on retro consoles than S-Video? enough to justify expensive hardware mods?
>>12429850>enough to justify expensive hardware mods?Yes. Or just import a sony pal tv.
>>12436218>It's not that games were designed with a specific output in mindNo thats actually exactly what the situation is. Devs were taking advantage of the blurriness you would get from rf and to a lesser extent composite to create intermediate colors and gradients.
>>12436936[Citation needed]
>>12437105>>12435271
I'm not aware of any specific effects that would have been achieved via RF. All of the predictable blending and chroma distortions should appear whether you're viewing the composite directly or demodulated. But certainly on something like the original famicom, the developers would have been testing via RF.
I'm thinking of playing through every MK game, beating arcade mode with every character, playing through any bonus modes, then moving on to the next game, and so on.Is this a good or bad idea? Has anyone done something similar?
>>12433437how else are you gonna get the whole story? you kinda need to see all the endings and stuff>inb4 youtubeno
>>12418246good idea if you are a big fan but don't play all games consecutively or you'll get mk fatigue
>>12437153What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
>>12433437Do you just mean because it would be long and tedious or are there specific characters seen as almost impossible to beat it with? I remember when I owned Street Fighter Alpha 3 on PS1 I could beat arcade mode on the highest difficulty with every character except T Hawk and I couldn't even beat it on the lowest difficulty with him lol.
>>12421260>>12429789This. The single player game of MK is garbage. It's not impossibly hard, but beating it is just a matter of fucking up the AI. The fun of the series is the crazy chaos of multiplayer, without that it's not worth much.

>>12436520ah the iconic omega boots demo, and his superb song (is the japanese one the one in the demo that intro song is uper RAD)
>>12436537>speed freaks>evil zoneDefinitely one of the demo discs I played the most.
>>12436536For those who kept track in the last thread, a response to the letter originally claiming how good an idea it would be if Disney and Final Fantasy got together to make a game.
Post the peaks, the best games of their respective franchises.
>>12430320>Morrowind is jank>Skyrim is zoomerUnless you're willing to go with the hot take that Daggerfall is the best TES, the only reasonable answer is Oblivion.
>>12437037How the fuck is Morrowind jank but not Oblivion?

Naomi and Naomi 2 got badass heavy-hitters that knock it clean outta the park, but dang, Dreamcast got hosed on Model 3 ports; Sega Rally 2 an' Daytona USA both run like shit. Missed Super GT (M3), Monkey Ball (N1), Initial D Arcade Stage (N2).
>>12437116>Initial D Arcade StageThat's the actual Sega Rally 3, but wearing an anime disguise.
>>12437116
>>12437119Y'all can emulate 'em, partner. Last night I played Monkey Ball with a HOTAS stick (T.Flight for PS4, dirt cheap).
Huh? A lot of Naomi games were released on the DC
>>12437157When Sega sends its arcade ports, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending ports that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing low framerate. They’re bringing graphics downgrades. They’re awful. And some, I assume, are good ports.
