I would kill for the original 3D assets to the prerendered areas of Donkey Kong Country and Ocarina of TIme
>Downloaded newest patch of FFVII mod this week.>Still looks like shit at 4kGoddamnit. I'm probably going back to the stretched non-upscaled backgrounds.I would pay a full $50 each for FF7-9 with the prerendered backgrounds in their original resolution before being cut to 240p then compressed.
>>12916138That's not amazing for sure, but it's an improvement if you really have to run it at a higher resolution.
>>12915594Same, but with Riven and Abe's Oddysee.
>>12915914>I'm 23 years retardedThat's why you don't "have Claude" and are unable to "break through" anything but your pampers.
something about that distant horizon
One of my favorite genres is third person shooters or third person action/adventure games. Anything like:>The Suffering/The Suffering 2>Freedom Fighters>Advent Rising>MDK I and 2>BloodRayne 1 and 2Suggestions for games I may have missed in this style?
>>12912150yeah it's a surprisingly competent max payne clone with some cool flourishes, though I thought the shooting got kind of stale by the halfway point.
Max Payne, Star Fox Adventure, Rockman Dash. Am I doing this right?
>>12907891You've missed Die Hard
>>12913320Why would you lose points for killed guys during the torture scenes?
Urban Chaos, but the controls are mediocre from what I rememberTrue Crime, both are abandonware

A gamer in Japan set a new record in Mister Driller G. The dude did it in 2 hours while trying not to piss himself or miss the last train home.If this was America his score would get beaten shortly after by a dodgy VHS sent in to Twin Galaxies.
>>12911359You can't go two hours without peeing? You might want to tell a doctor about that, that's not normal
>>12911359That's a very nice record! It would be a shame if something were to happen to it.
>>12911359QUICK, TURN ON THE NEWS, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT CHANNEL
>>12911359Now do it again with a character that isn't for PUSSIES

Would of Max Payne been better with an Autumn aesthetic
>>12913414cursed shit
>>12914386yeah it's just like that
Probably not. The game’s themes are heavy with Norse mythology. The snow is like the snow in the end of the world. Ragna something.

>>12913432I guess to be fair they didn't expect really anyone to actually turn off virtual RAM, this was the days of like 16 to 32 MB of RAM after all.
>>12912982Ideally people should know what your thread is about just from a quick glance at a 150x150 thumbnail
>>12913432>>12914015It's always been recommended to keep virtual memory on even in modern windows because of dumb errors like that. Modern windows can't do crash dumps without virtual memory either. And nowadays a rogue youtube tab can max out your RAM.The dumb errors in Win95/98 are mostly because it dumps all runtime libraries in system32 and some games need specific versions but whenever you install something it overwrites the global ones. Plays hell on stability. XP had that issue as well iirc, they only fixed it in Vista (by making every installer create its own libraries, so now the Windows folder grows to 50+GB after a few years if you install lots of stuff).
>>12914015>>12914806The funny part is it's the first Win3.x or Win9x game I've installed and tried to play to have an issue with no virtual RAM. Wipeout, Turok, Quake, Riven, Quake 2, POD, Caesar 2, Caesar 3, BHunter, Star Wars Shadows of the Empire, nothing complained about virtual RAM being disabled, just Age of Empires. That Win98 testbench .iso was a similar story, Unreal ran at the speed of slow on the lowest possible settings and tiny resolution, but it didn't complain about virtual RAM not being there. I'm actually thinking about turning it back off once I get done playing Age of Empires and the current batch of games I have installed, so I can see if any other games demand virtual RAM to function, and which ones.>The dumb errors in Win95/98 are mostly because it dumps all runtime libraries in system32 and some games need specific versions but whenever you install something it overwrites the global ones.

>>12914948Yeah, I've been a bit wary of uninstalling things on my 86Box machine as well. So far it's held together very well, and I'd like to keep it that way. Backups are certainly good for this purpose, of course.
That's it for Total Saturn (and indeed, ALL UK Saturn magazines) so I hope you enjoyed them!
>>12901358>Sonic FightersReal shame that never got a console port until the Gems Collection. That would've been a great one to have on Saturn or even Dreamcast.
>>12914829>Real shame that never got a console port until the Gems CollectionI agree a saturn port would have been handy.
>six issues in one threadImpressive!
Why the fuck do Americans get rid of the game cases and just store the game carts ?Are you insane ?
>>12916010a cart isn't a whole appliance. this is more like throwing out the boxes of your CDs and DVDs because you can just put them in spindles. Or before that, removing the plastic cases of VHS tapes.>>12916043Same here, except I keep the boxes because I sell shit I don't need, and the boxes come handy for postage.They do take a lot of space though, especially when I get stuck in a slump and not post any ads for months.
>>12911325>Are you insane ?Yes. You asshole.
>>12916058you can always collapse empty appliance boxes and retape them later when you need a box
>>12916058>this is more like throwing out the boxes of your CDs why would I keep a CD box? there's a perfectly good jewel case that came with.
>>12911325>Are you insane ?Did you eat all the donuts? /HL1scientist
Are the kingsfield games any good?They say they are the grandfathers of the souls games.
>>12913507Nta either but the enemies do a lotta damage. Later I got level ups and resources but by that point I was done with the samey levels so I dropped it. Straight up copy paste shit you find in those crappy old games. KFII? Levels are tolerable enough, though it's no feast for the eyes. Shadow Tower? Bro that's deliberate, don't give me that shit.
>>12913497>KF 1 is mazelikenigga you are retarded.
>>12913497KF is more like a typical dungeon crawler type of level structure with multiple floors.KF2 is more like a full on open world and parts of it are the dungeons and also a few village areas with npcs but they are all just continuous part of the island, there is no true distinction between dungeon areas and non dungeon areas.KF3 is like a bit of both, it has the full on dungeons interconnected with the overwold where it has different lands and villages.KF4 is more like one big main multi level interconnected dungeon, the ancient city, with side areas, like the starting area and forest area, dwarf settlement and such.They all feel different to each other enough that I can easily see one person liking one over another.I actually played Eternal Ring and Evergrace all the way through. Eternal Ring feels like a game that was not finished and rushed to meet the ps2 launch, I wish they had given it a few more months, but Evergrace does not feel as rushed because it was a game that was ported from the ps1 to the ps2 for launch so it probably benefited form having an already started development even if they probably wasted time transferring it over to another console.
>>12916039>Evergrace>Eternal RingWhat's the one with the batshit insane OST?
>>12916040Evergrace, great music but not typical.Eternal Ring also has great music but is more in line with what people expect from fantasy games, more conventional.I listen to both soundtracks every so often along with KF4's, possibly the best fantasy game ost out there, maybe a bit too dark for normal fantasy but great for the mood of the game.
This game fucking sucks. The graphics are ok but the controls are terrible and the constant unavoidable bombardment you receive is extremely annoying. The music (which I’ve actually heard people highlight as a standout) is TV movie of the week tier and just mediocre. Half the weapons and upgrades are useless. The story is stupid and the FMV cutscenes almost unwatchable which I guess goes without saying for the period. Incredibly difficult and not in a fair way at all. As more of a Saturn fan the graphics are actually quite impressive which might be a sad admission but the really isn’t much on the Saturn that looks comparable. But overall this game kind of sucks.
What were they doing?What?
>>12913178Ok Amiga anon, was it good and got nerfed by retarded suits or did it suck?
>the Commodore Dildothruster
>>12915893The suction thingies at the bottom are giving me heavy duty vibes.>"Commodore Sex all fours"
>>12913178Stuff like this made me think CD32 was super powerful but its is just barely able to handle Sonic and Aladdin
>>12913178I like how there are no games displayed in the Amiga pic, just generic CDs.The varying quality of the discs also hints that they have different origins, not manufactured by Commodore. Probably music CDs.
what the fuck, it's really good and fun... /vr/ told me for years it was bad, why it lied to me
>>12913873Not even really a sequel, just some other sonic pinball game with little relation. It's more like Sega fan service if anything.
>>12913619>what the fuck, it's really good and fun... /vr/ told me for years it was bad, why it lied to meYou were reading the instructions on how to use your velcro shoes and they were in English. No wonder you're so confused.
>>12913810emulator issue, it sounded fine on my original PAL mega drive.
>>12913820It's not just the framerate, but the gameplay in general. Any time you're on the ground, it feels like absolute shit to play.
>>12915640It's a pinball game
So when does it gets good?
you can go fast in Marble Zone.don't tell me you're one of those PLEBS who waits for the falling platforms, actually rides the block through lava, etc.
>>12910095Depends on what you like. If it's gotta go fast simulator, then the first stage is the only stage you'll really enjoy.If it's slow paced platforming then you're in it now.Sonic is pretty hit or miss
>>12913605Collision Chaos is piss easy lmao. Probably because it's not even originally intended to be the second level.
>>12910259Really? But what about Star light Zone Anon? WHAT ABOUT STAR LIGHT ZONE!!!
>>12915642Star Light is honestly highly underrated and doesn't get enough love. It's basically the blueprint for majority of Sonic 2, which is considered the perfect game by some, and Stardust Speedway which is considered CD's best level myself, I'm more of a Quartz Quadrant guy
Boss fights take 10 seconds or 10 minutes based on card drop RNG, the platforming is as tedious as the Inverted Castle's, you have to double-tap every time you change direction, and changing direction in the air also changes the direction of your whip.91% on Metacritic????????????????
>>12915469Because there's an easy to do glitch that gives you all cards instantly and barely anyone plays those NG+ modes.
>>12915469>just play this mediocre game again>no we couldn't coherently balance the system with limitations, just have everything at once
>>12910937I've been replaying all the DS games recently and I'm starting to think Ecclesia is the peak Iga game. Challenge feels just right (hard mode) and I think it matches and even surpasses SotN at times graphically. Portrait is cool too but Dawn is kinda stock.
>>12905803All you have to do is hold the button down and not let go while running and you can change directions and jump keep running without having to re-input the double tap.
>>12915935Or just use the auto-run patch, there's no reason to ever walk in this game. Even Konami realized this and made Richter auto-run in Portrait of Ruin where he appears as a bonus character with his SOTN moveset.
>If you chud out against foreigners you get to have nice unique thingsThanks for reminding us the value of chuddy isolationism Korea...BTW did they just memory holed these things or are they ashamed of them? Are they gatekeeping?
>>12915512the msx1 and colecovision share practically the same hardware. they're not bad but it's 2nd generation hardware. coleco fans even port msx games to it for fun.
