Why was Sony one of the few Japanese companies to adapt to 6th gen? While 5th gen Japanese juggernauts like Capcom, Konami, Namco and even other console makers like Nintendo were losing relevance fast. Sony themselves became the big Japanese publisher that coexisted with Rockstar, EA and Activision. Publishing western centric games that weren’t rejected

Prime 1 does suck, but desu i think most metroids suck ass. Its always been the one classic franchise I really don't get what people see in it. Like how does mandatory being bored running back and forth really add? Why not just have levels?
Prime 1 combat was pretty medicore and its padded to hell
T. prime 1 was like one of the only gc games I even had and I still didn't really play it instead opting to play the urbz

As for what I think about God of war? Idk I didn't get thst far, never liked character action games all that much besides like mad world and bayo 1.
Rachet and clank is an exclusive shooter/light platforms for the ps2 so its probably more comparable to the prime games. Exclusive 6th Gen competing games
Rachet rapes metroid like its not even close. Now those are actually fun video games especially Rachet 2 and deadlock.

you can do whatever you want. why do you need approval for every single fucking opinion you have?

play with shaders if you think they look nice, or don't. do you not have a personality beyond "what /vr/ thinks"?

>Play the easier version of OG1 and 2 if you want a challenge
>>12860001
OG A is easier than A Portable because its actually balanced properly instead of a hodgepodge of nonsense.
I haven't played Masoukishin F yet but MK1 is so blatant on who it wants you to use that there actually isnt that much room for player expression since most of the cast have spotty availability.
MK2's difficulty is purely from secret hunting as its a rather easy game otherwise.
MK3 is actually challenging (did it on a NUR) but the majority of the difficulty stems from Winky being stupid and making literally everything on the enemy side post movement. Once you understand the target algorithm, it becomes infinitely more bearable.
Also, Compact 1/2 are worth playing if you want a challenge.

The money religion was behind it anon... the US trained Osama bin Laden to fight some other foreigners back in the day, to make money and protect existing moneys, and then the US profited again when he turned against his creators and gave them a bounty of excuses to go out into various other foreign countries with more guns and bombs to make more money.

How much fucking drugs could you even conceal inside of a floppy? Seems a really inefficient approach that nobody would actually take.

I guess you could hide some LSD tabs inside of a floppy? Again though, not particularly efficient, there's way roomier things to smuggle inside of.

>Just awful, awful gameplay that Turok 1 mogs any day of the week.

Turok 2 has cool weapons, but barely any enemies to use them on -- and then they make the few enemies available sponges.

I think Turok 1 with the enemy spawns turned off is one of the finest FPSes of the era. It's one of the few games I've ever replayed twice.

>There's nothing inherently special about TN panels that makes a monitor have low input latency.
That's not entirely correct. Some panel technologies need multiple frames of data to work well. Getting the panel to display the right pixel color depends on what the pixel used to show and for how long it showed it so heavy processing and the resultant delay is part of the display technology. Ignoring that and going single frame latency will make your brand new IPS look like an early 90s retail terminal, so they don't do it and just make you have 2 frames of lag in game mode. TN has less of a problem in this regard so processing can be much more simple without greatly sacrificing image quality.

> draw 1 at a time

draw 3 at a time, it gives you access to more cards.
>>
>>12857939
How? You can't play the two cards behind the first one unless you can use the first card. Draw 1 at a time allows you to access every card that gets drawn, not just the first out of three.
>>
>>12857786
Yeah it's possible but it takes dozens of games to win on 3 draw/Vegas.
Same for playing Spider Solitaire on Difficult and drawing all the cards immediately. It is possible to win, but it takes a long long time.

I like the WinCE/PocketPC version of Solitaire the best. The cards make little spitting noises when you win a game.
>>
>>12858072
in 3-card you see more cards, since each used card gives you access for another new card, instead of access to the very card you just couldn't use.

you also cycle the remaining deck pile three times, which means mode chances for a specific card.
