The PS2 is more powerful that the Gamecube.
>>12244601>postin in an auster thread
>>12244601No it is not, not even in FPU operations, the PS2 feature set was like a generation behind the GC, hell not even palletized colors natively you could do and even toon shading techniques required workarounds to make it "like" the effect you want, when you wanted to put some fancy effects on screen the frame rate went to shit while on gamecube fixed hardware functions was basically free! Metroid prime could never run on PS2 https://youtu.be/KX-9M2kiz9k?si=YR4RzNTmIId9b46L
>>12252730>I seriously doubt we would have been able to make Ratchet and Clank run at 60Hz on the Xbox without drastically reducing the number of moving objects.>It’s very difficult to put a number on how far we’ve pushed the PS2 at this point. If I had to estimate, I’d say Ratchet and Clank may use about 50% of the PS2’s maximum potential.Anon...
>>12248124the gamecube is purple/orange/black/silver usually
>>12249614That would be a fucking dream.
I really like how in the pre-internet world they used to make video game adaptations out of anything, since nobody really knew where the medium was headed, and since video games were really the only kind of digital diversion that existed accessibly they'd actually sell. ITT post games that wouldn't get made today.
thinking back to childhood, there was a "Frankie Goes to Hollywood" game on 8bit home computers like the C64. yes... a computer game for kids based on the 'relax don't do it when you wanna CUM' one hit wonders. and there was a licensed "Platoon" run & gun on Spectrum. fucking PLATOON... an anti war war movie about stoned draftees accidentally murdering VCs and fragging their lieut. thinking about it, it was OCEAN that came up with all these bizarre licensed titles
>>12253639My bad, you're right, it's a pointless argument
>>12250745>The one game everybody had in their collection.
>>12253838>Frankie Goes to HollywoodStill one of the weirdest damn games I ever played. Learning later that it was about a band kind of explained it, but not really
James Clavell's Shogun getting not one, but two games was pretty weird. One of them was a text adventure (sort of makes sense), the other a strange side-scrolling platformer (this is just fever dream shit).

I'm half asleep and don't know what is going on in the OP image but looks like a bearded dwarf sucking a tranny hooker's dick on the sidewalk. How far off am I?
>>12252873close
>>12251680C64 games are so much more fun and creative than NES games it's unreal.
>>12254096IKR? My NES mostly gathered dust, my C64 was my daily gaming rig.
megaman clasic and megaman x are overrated same repeated shitthese games are all the same. no difference between megaman x1 and x3. no difference between megaman 5 and 3. all the same shit
>>12250032It's nowhere near as hard as &forte, 10 on hard or 11 on superhero. If you have problems just use the shop items, they exist for a reason.
Never played any Megaman games proper and the Legacy Collections are on sale, should I get them? PC or Switch? I'm thinking of getting only part 1 of the normal collection and X Legacy Collection (though part 2 of X has X5 with that one music track I like, you know the one)
>>12252612Anon, op is a bad bait
>>12250032>>12250219>>12250274>>12252662wait, found the reasonfirst, I didn't clarify the context. my leech brother with too much free time and nothing to do downloaded all megaman games on his pc, and I, just to relax a little after tough work days, asked him to let me play, megaman 9, which I never played before. he, without asking me, selected the dlc: Protoman. I didn't argue him, I was interested in him anyway...the fucking thing took 20-25% of the life bar for each hit! I found it weird, but then again I haven't touched a classic megaman game in a decade. His shooting was weird too, something was.. different. I kept playing anyway. but it was fucking hard I COULDNT CLEAR ANY STAGE in one hour. worse, I COULDNT EVEN FACE ANY ROBOT MASTERthe day after I search for differences between promotan and megaman, and yes, there ARE differences! Protoman is supposed to be an extra mode, a hard mode. it's a dlc, you are not supposed to play as Protoman if you never played Megaman 9 beforesummary:I played the hard more: Protoman
>>12254086>>12252662(continued)&forte... I... I think I remember it was a hard game, yes, but don't remember anything. I remember King tho, think it was fucking bullshitAnother hard game was X6, but that one is different, we all know why lol a mess, it's supposed to be fun but's it was obvious the game wasn't tested at all and that everybody suffered making it, a game that wasn't suppose to exist, so the result felt like a fucking huge improvised mess. but I dont hate it lol it's a game to remember,think back and laugh at>11oh megaman 11 exists? whoa it seems I've been living under a rock
If you had your own arcade to populate with unusual, obscure, console-exclusive, hacked, and homebrew-style games what would you feature ?
TMNT x Justice League Turbo, a fan-game running on Ikemen go or Mugen. It's so well made there have even been tournaments for it.
>>12252207>console-exclusive, hacked, and homebrew-style gamesAre you retarded?
cowboys of moo mesa for sure
>>12252256alright, nice to know i'm the only guy here listing actually obscure arcade stuff

Describe the DMD experience. I always play on normal.
>>12254073A lot of button-mashing to try and make your attacks do more than chip damage as you die again and again, then somehow you finally figure out the correct button-timing and win. Repeat as needed.
I can't imagine playing that shit on DMD, normal is already hard as balls for me and that's coming from someone who mostly plays 80s and 90s games. I think I spent like an hour trying to beat the final Vergil fight AND I'm talking about Special Edition. And then people say that Ninja Gaiden Black is even harder but I still haven't played it
>>12254082Oh, you mean DMD mode? In that case, disregard everything after the first comma.
I've been replaying the Steam version of the 1999 Aliens vs. Predator game lately, which today is commonly referred to as Classic 2000. Is anyone still playing the online in some capacity?
>>12251363>The real question is why is the AVP2 expansion so fucking shitI’ve always wondered this. AVP2 base game is pretty great and primal hunt totally fumbles all the goodwill. The story is kind of blah, and I think predaliens as a concept has never been as popular as whoever runs the franchise thinks it is. A better story would’ve been to play out the disastrous, failed first expedition to the planet that the base game story references—could’ve easily made three interlocking stories about that rather than some goofy artifact.
>>12251130The Marine campaign is the only good one. The Alien campaign is fun for the first 30 minutes where you play as a facehugger and then a chestburster, but it's a landslide downhill after that. The Predator campaign sucks fucking ass.
>>12251363>>12251369Is there a program you use to make these?
>>12251483>Natural SelectionYou just made me sad that Natural Selection 2 is dead now, officially.
>>12250652I have been playing both for decades and both have strengths and weaknesses.the lack of dedicated server and map rotation makes AvP1 significantly worse however.

Now that the new captcha is filtering the zoomers, let's drop our biggest unc opinions on this thread. No shitty revisionism allowed>Zelda 2 is good>SCIV is good>Classic Sonic was always good>PSX (yes, ECKS) > N64>Half-Life is still good>Good games don't age>6th gen was mediocre ("mid" for our readers who can't post)What's yours?
>>12251852here in the UK, PS1 was normie af.they ran a marketing campaign to make sure you knew it was cool, and for teenagers/adults:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIW4HMl81hwrather than just sell these as toys, they put them in rave club chillout rooms where twentysomethings on ecstasy would play them. Sony took out ads in underground/rave/alt magazines, as though playing computer games now made you part of an alternative lifestyle for the new millennium.and yeah it basically worked. to this day i'll bet teenagers still call each other 'gay' if they play Nintendo instead of PlayStation.
>>12251852>Ps2 was super normie codedIt wasn't. Normalfags bought it, for sure, but they played like 2 games on it and used it as a DVD player. The library looked like picrel and anyone who actually bought a PS2 used it for the games in picrel, which are definitely not games made for normalfags. In any case, the PS2 wasn't the only sixth-gen console.
>>12251629>the new captcha is filtering the zoomersI refuse to believe anyone is getting filtered by it.
>>12251878The PS1 was normie in Eastern Europe, even girls were playing games.
>>12251629It’s the best one
Flex those early CG renders.
