So I noticed that there is a resolution option for the "native" resolution but I can't find anything definitive about why it's not used by default? Shouldn't it be the best, it's native so it's the default that's warped by a TV into 4:3 or 16:9 right?Is there any reason to not do native? Does it not scale as well or something?
>>12512592>on a crtthe point is to not need that
>>12512308I just use a widescreen patch whenever I can.
You reminded me of this so I'm posting ithttps://www.psdevwiki.com/ps2/Games_With_Alternative_Display_Modes
i played jak and daxter yesterday for the first time. was surprised that an early ps2 game had 16:9
always original everything only 1 good filter for the screen and 3x resolution Home improvement show sucked because they all turned into shiddy people that hate Europeans later
Any tips for HM64?
So this is the first RPG ever made, it's so weird you don't have party members
>>12516214They do though more or less
>actually the first 2d platformer wasn't Mario!!!!Yeah no one cares retard
Nintendo invented video games, you're just gonna have to cope with it.
>>12516225This but unironically
>>12516225Anything before the Famicom is kinda shit
Does it deserves the hate and scrutiny?
Without the 32x failureAnd a mandate for late Genesis ports to the Saturn to use more buttons(looking at you Shining Wisdom)It could have gotten somewhere.At the end of the day, fun is fun, and games can be unique.
>>12513018Any console that is a competitor of playstation is a failure. And we dont like losers here. Its too close to home.
>>12513018It absolutely does. It's such a shameful console. It killed 32x and Dreamcast and Sega's console ambition.
>>12515554>And a mandate for late Genesis ports to the SaturnNo, with a mandate for a Genesis converter add-on.
>>12515481This. When a console lives so rent free inside of an individual's mind to the extreme of making him have the daily job of having to post about it for hours, then you know the console is good.
What is a critically panned game that you somehow like playing?Hellnight got mostly mid-to-horrible scores by reviewers, and it undeniably has a barren and low-budget feeling for most of the experience. Still you can tell the devs and artists were genuinely inspired, it's an actually creepy and scary horror game with very effective art, music and writing.
>>12513578I'm trying to remember if that glitch ever happened to me, and I feel like maybe it did once. I do know at times the monster is just so bullshittingly fast that it could seem like it got you from a distance but it actually caught up from running 200 times faster than youEither way I believe you, and I understand dropping the game for it, but I think it's a very rare occurrence
>>12515339Fuck you Elebits is awesome
>>12511440>I'm 99% sure there was a campaign to bomb this game to oblivion.There wasn't, as the rest of the journos gave it a good score. The IGN guy got mad at not getting gud and did that review, which led IGN to do a video in defense of God Hand.
>>12510563Independent of the quality of the game, why are these fake covers so abundant? It's like those SNES games with the black K-A ESRB rating, which are fake since that rating got replaced by E before they changed the format to the black letter.
>>12516151I assume it's not so much that they're fake, but simply images provided to reviewers and retailers. The actual Gun Club cover is pretty much identical to the one I originally posted, minus the black fill on top. I imagine whoever their graphic artist was accidentally bundled an unfinished cover with their promo material. Probably use a template like that when framing the image.
My neo kobe pizza!
>>12511780>dumbass westerners won't understand the concept of soup dumplings. wed better change it to dunking fucking pizza in noodle broth!
>>12513978Original had an open endingAct 3 ends on a cliffhanger, it's even worse since they gave up on making a sequel by that point
>>12514947It fits with degenerate multicultural mess Neo Kobe is
>>12514947>>12515046my in-laws made something called pizza soup. it's just leftover pizza in boiling salted water. I stopped visiting
>>12514947I always thought it was a dry pizza that Ramen moisturizes cus the future
Thanks anon on /vrpg/ for the heads up. Apparently it released earlier this year.https://www.timeextension.com/news/2025/06/tenshi-no-utas-super-famicom-sequel-looks-like-its-getting-an-english-language-releaseI checked online and thankfully the roms were never dumped (fuck piracy)
>>12514902I don't understand
>>12515790>I don't understandExactly
Tengai Makyō when?
>>12514815I don't know about shitty e-celeb rama but In cosmic fantasy 1 the text you get when dealing and receiving damage from normal attacks is reversed: when it says "Yu attacks monster for 80 damage" it actually means that the "Monster attacked Yu for 80 damage", same applies for your attacks. Actual unplayable garbage, you'd knew this if you actually played the collection.
>>12512634>I checked online and thankfully the roms were never dumped (fuck piracy)Fuck off. Someone needs to dump Cosmic Fantasy 3 and 4.
I recently picked this up out of curiosity of the mainline Spyro games I missed out on growing up. EtD is pretty mid so far, with really tanky controls and large empty spaces. Is A Hero's Tail worth getting once I finish?
>>12508209They were both bad, but not bad-bad. Still "acceptable"It's a game, it works as a game i suppose. But going from warped to WoC is surely bittersweet Same with Spyro 3 -> EtD
You're supposed to play the Definitive Edition hack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_1s24tidOA
>>12507686The only good Spyro games are those on the PS1, and maybe one GBA game iirc. The PS2 era games were fucking trash, you're not missing out.>>12509350WoC is an enshittified version of Warped. You get the same inconsistent gameplay, just with worse design decisions for the most part. But at least the ball levels are infinitely more fun than some of the Warped vehicle levels (airplanes and motorcycle are dogshit).
>>12507707someone has a crush on an anthro
>>12512921>and maybe one GBA game iircSeason of Flame.Attack of Rhynocs is pretty good too.
Nintendo seriously thought this was a killer app.
Mario Sunshine is an IQ test, if it was used worldwide to purge out the weak then we'd live in a better world.
daily reminder "sunshine bad" retards are the same people who think gta and halo are quality entertainment.
frog threads are better than this
>>12516089Most things are better than Mario Sunshine.
the downfall of /vr/ must be studied
This was considered a killer app in 1990.
>>12515887It was the game shown in tv commercials and magazine ads. Not pretty by todays standards but it was indeed a core launch title that turned heads.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ma8DEFlyYZM&pp=0gcJCU8Co7VqN5tD
>>12515709No they where known as tapes back then
>>12515709>>12515718BTFO
>>1251596890s kid here. I called them cartridges. My grandma referred to them as tapes.
>>12515968But I only stole ONE Sega tape!
Aliens Vs Predator 2 just released in time its crosscampaign mod that enables you to play all the campaigns with any species without getting blocked by a door or a wallwalking section.https://www.moddb.com/mods/avp2-crosscampaign
Why didn't we have this back in 2001?
If PC gaming isn't popular in Japan, why were there so many Windows 95/98/XP ports?
>>12515149>GaijinYou will never be Japanese
They play visual novels on PC
Unpopular ≠ nonexistent. I also disagree with there being "so many" of them.
>>12515121I think to sell to other Asian countries that didn't have easy access to consoles.
>>12515121The 5th gen console jump to CDs inspired a PC port boom but that died out by 6th gen. Hell FF7 and 8 got timely PC ports but how long did it take for 9 and 10 to get one?
How did they invent a game with such pacing?Can you name a game with more consistent gameplay?
Joust
>>12512558so basically they’re identical
>>12512558What large explorable environments? You have tiny areas to scavenge around for ammo and upgrades. Rail shooters just cut to the chase and have enemies drop ammo and upgrades when you kill them avoiding any need to pause the action.

N64 Great Fairy my beloved
>>12512291Did nobody else find it weird that she just gives you a realistic mask of her face in MM? Like why does she have a mask of her own face just on hand to give you anyway?

Why are 80s PC stuff so underrated when it comes to the history of gaming? Almost everything that is credited to consoles happened first in PCs.
>>12515987keyboard overlays like that weren't all that common. best you'd get is a manual. if you pirated the game then you were shit out of luck. seen a few overlays but they were never used because they're made out of shit paper that'll fall apart if you just look at it wrong.
>>12515995The manuals were massive too. Microprose made notoriously complex games but so did SSI and a few others.
99% of ZX Spectrum games didn't require you to do anything more than type LOAD, wait a while, and type RUN once the game was loaded.
>>12515987>>12515993Damn, those are cool.
>>12516054You didn't type basic commands on a Speccy you larping retard.It was J, symbol shift P, symbol shift P, enter.
