They had a working version running on GC , but EA wanted online modes on every version but that couldn't work on Nintendo's side for some reason, so they gave up the GC port entirely.

Burnout 3 engines runs on the same engine as 1 and 2 , on Nintendo GC there were several games running on this engine , the only difference is that on Burnout 3 , most geometry on the tracks are streaming directly from the disc.

Also PS2 couldn't run the Monkey Ball /F-Zero engine above 30fps and most Sonic games either.

Now OP show me a single game on PS2 or Xbox that draws geometry on screen as fast as F-Zero GX

Hats off for that.
However, The things he says in that video just makes me wanna strangle the shit out of him.
He talks about Police Academy at 1:10:40 and previously at 39:10 he mentions Awesome Possum source.
So they have Atari HDDs and maybe floppies with the source code and stuff and instead of posting images on archive.org like a normal person, so anyone can have a go at it, he elected himself an top expert in data recovery and he will do everything himself and curate shit. For Awesome Possum source and who knows what else he decided it's unrecoverable and he will hoard it. Jesus fucking Christ what a faggot.
>>
>>12254603
It’s Awesome Possum. That game needs to stay buried.

hahaha, omfg, get a load of this:
They are releasing Xcavator 2025, which they compiled from the source code they've found on floppies as showcased in trailer, for $100 (which got to be some sort of record for a NES cart)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWachCDkM6o

And they think they can do this, because original dev croaked a fucking decade ago:
>@Request_2_PANic 4 days ago: Are the original developers known? If so, I think they should at least get a cut.

That's the problem with a large portion of the Master System library.

There is no reason you would want to play any of these now instead of the 16-bit versions.

Anyone have an experience with these PSxMemCards for PS1/PS2 games? Thinking of buying the Gen 2 off aliexpress, but I've heard certain games can just wipe your entire sd card lmao.

There's also the MemCardPro2 which is supposedly higher quality, but it's like 50 bucks more.

Should also add I'm not looking to run games off an SD card or anything, I have burnt CDs and a hard drive already set up. Just saving

WTF? The bootleg MemCardPro2 costs $50 MORE than the bootleg MemCardPro1? Dude, the official MemCardPro2 is under $50. Usually bootlegs are cheaper than the official products they're ripping off due to being cheap shoddy clones.

Ah yes, the firmware that didn't even exist until two years AFTER the PSX Memcard Pro came out. Yeah, clearly they used their time machine to steal the firmware of a device that can fry your PSX years before the very first github commit.

I played the NES version, same with DQ II. I know people on here usually prefer the SNES version but I'm kind of stubborn when it comes to DQ and FF and prefer to play the versions on the original console, warts and all.
>>
>>12253113
With DQ fans you can be sure that when they say they played DQ1-3 they mean the NES versions more often than not but this is absolutely not the case with FF fans. Whenever I want to discuss FF2 here for example I always specify that I'm talking about the FC version because no one here played that shit except for select few autists that I usually discuss FF with (I'm confident it's always the same people)

You should feel guilty if you don't delete the ROM after 48 hours, because that's when it becomes illegal. Until those 48 hours it falls under fair use.
