I'm looking forward to the October issue, I really hope there is a review or some mention of Bangai-O
>>12882803>Bangai-OReally underrated game.

Would you like to know the answer? Are you truly hungry for the answer?
>>12878357DO NOT PLAY THAT FUCKING GAME!!!
The fact the console was capable of doing this, just sony didn't let it is only further proof consoles are scams. This is not even an original PS2 game.
Read that the ps5 operating system actually natively recognizes ps2 and ps3 discs and if just wasn't utilized. The homebrew ps2 emulator didnt have to add that
>>12878846Its because of ps3 being a bitch to emulate and higher ups at sony not thinking people care about older games. I understand why ps4 dropped ps3 but come on it could't have been that hard to throw and ps1/ps2 emulator on there
>>12880946>higher ups at sony not thinking people care about older games.Clearly not the case, otherwise they wouldn't have used older games as a key feature of PS+ Premium, nor would they put so much stock into memberberry shit with a lot of their current output.
>>12873150AI and hackers saved the PS5. But they also destroyed Sony in the process. I'm grateful for it!
>>12878126what the fuck did you mean by this?
The Sega Genesis can produce mind-boggling effects.
>>12871762 He was the bomb in Phantoms, yo!
>>12874748That scene from Swingers is not only great, it's probably one of the most accurate gaming scenes in movies (besides mixing up some details and playing NHLPA Hockey '93 instead of NHL '94). But in spirit it's correct.Goofs from IMDB>They say they are playing NHL '94 and that this is the one where the player can make the opponent's head bleed, but this was in NHLPA '93 and not in the '94 version.>Although the guys all lament the fact that there is no fighting in the version of video hockey they are playing, that version is NHLPA '93, which did, in fact, have fighting (as well as being able to make someone's head bleed). Fighting was not removed from the series until NHL '94.The game on the screen is wrong and some mix-ups over the versions, but the whole thing about removing the fighting in NHL '94 was a real thing and it accurately captures the feeling of playing Genesis with your bro.
>>12875591>how do video effects work? i iz retardin 1990s it was very easy to create this effect. the jagged lines of the bezel does give it away>>12879412100% factual statement. clerks 2 was not great at all. clerks 3.. jesus. utterly fucking miserable. kevin's fatal flaw was trying to cash-in repeatedly on clerks while having barely any talent for writing, producing or directing. he got lucky with the first movie. it was unique. he couldn't never recapture or replicate that ever again
That guy is SEGAGAGA
>>12871515That one jarred me briefly, I never played the NES one as a kid (or much of the arcade one either) so I even accepted they were showing the right thing for a few moments, and then I was like "wait that forest has way too many greens in it"
Do people just pretend to like this game because they played it as a small child? This shit is terrible.
>>12878980>>12879048People just seem butthurt about AVGN out of principle but are people really going to act like those weren't legit complaints? Most people found the dam level frustrating, putting a health powerup in an area that's impossible to reach is a dick move, having a hole on a floor that you jump over by not jumping makes no sense and Donatello is just way more useful than the rest of the Turtles
>>12882814AVGN became popular by airing out complaints us 80's/90's kids all had about those games. We laughed hard 'cuz we agreed. It's just zoomers who played with save states or rewind that don't get it.
>>12882892>We laughed hard 'cuz we agreed.you laughed because you're a brain damaged fucking idiot entertained by morons of the internet that don't actually play games. they sit in front of a camera pretending they do. my god you are fucking dumb.>>12882814chad post
>>12882812>having a hole on a floor that you jump over by not jumping makes no sensemaybe it was to show the player it was possible so they could use it in the sewer sections if they wanted because a bunch of jumps there have the same 1 tile gap
>>12882812>Donatello is just way more useful than the rest of the TurtlesThis isn't true, Raph is the best turtle once you get good because Donatello is too slowalso those things are nitpicks in the grand schemes, and you forget things that are blatantly wrong like claiming "turtles can't swim", even though the turtles CAN fucking swim in the game and it's the current they can't do anything against, and only talking about new enemies to claim the game has nothing to do with the source material, while ignoring everything else that makes it more respectful to the source material than the vast majority of licensed games at the time (and after its time); things which every impressionnable midwit still believes to be true about the game.
How the fuck do I get gud at this game?
>>12882609It's an R-Type game. So like with any R-Type game, lots of memorization for positioning, figuring out where it's best to place/throw your Force to protect yourself and rush down enemy mobs, and experimenting with what ammo color works best for what stage/section.Good luck. Thankfully, the game is mercifully very short (30ish minutes for a full run). You should be able to just wing it for the first 2 stages, but stage 3 onwards is where the game fucks you hard in the ass and you really have to route your run.
>>12882650Are there any good guides for general routing or for recovery strats? Recovering in this game seems way more punishing than in R-Type Final.
>better than a speccy in every way.>IS a speccy but with a far better colour pallete.>never mentioned, ever.this machine is a hidden gem, and its time /vr/ learned about it
Amstrad lives!
>>12871562oof, buy a new computer in a fancy box, need a $100 floppy drive to make is usable>>12872793Navy Seals is good too and Switch Blade is mildly upgraded
>>12870731user is underage
>>12879139>>12874384>>12872824Thanks for the responses. I’ll try Navy Seal and Pang.
>>12870731>Amstrad CPC 464absolute chad of a computer>>12870739>Well not many people owned these.i saw a lot of them in schools. outside of that environment was very rare
I don't know what it is, but I just can not stand this game. I like all the other classic Castlevanias, but this one just seems off. Feels like an indie game attempting to be Castlevania, right down to being more annoying than anything else in the name of "difficulty". If your idea of fun is not having fun, then you'll probably love it.
>>12880816Memorizing this crap isn't worth it.
>>12880639>Sexy mudgirls with big tits instead of the usual shapeless blobs>They keep cloning themselves as you smack them downWhy couldn't they have more than a single screen?
>>12881082>>12880639You can get through the first 3-4 stages/blocks with little to no memorization. It's only the last 2 stages that demand some bit of memorization and precision. If you do like the other classicvanias the way you claim you do, then nothing that the first game does should be out of the ordinary.
>>12880639Back when Castlevania was peak but now "must be better" Belmonto.
>>12880639>but this one just seems off. Feels like an indie game attempting to be Castlevania,Still better than other castlevania ones.
Almost finishing this. Despite some retarded design choices (not being able to farm for 2 seasons) and barely having any content after the first year, I enjoyed it.Should I play 64 or back to nature next?
>>12881361harvest moon DS
>>12873207My favorite is Magical Melody. That game turned me into a nocturnal vampire until I got all of the notes.
>>12881970Yes, and I got these pages:https://harvestmoon.fandom.com/wiki/Witch#Witch_Princess'_Appearanceshttps://harvestmoon.fandom.com/wiki/Harvest_GoddessThey both feature in lots of different HM titles, I wanted to know specifically which one was in the screenshot.
>>12882753The two screens didn’t tip you off?
>>12882778No, that did not narrow down which of the 3 DS games and 1 3DS game it could have been that the Witch Princess is in.
Is it worth playing with what we have and what fans have managed to put together?
What are some SNES hidden gems?
>>12874145>What are some SNES hidden gems?Magical Pop'n, Hameln no Violin Hiki, Majūō, Psycho Dream, Macross: Scrambled Valkyrie, Undercover Cops, Run Saber.
>>12874479I loved the Power Rangers fighting game as a kid, so this one would've probably blown me away had it released here. If only Gundam Wing had come out in the states just a couple of years sooner.
Did someone say gems?
>>12874145Uniracers

unintentionally survival horror
If this game wasn't connected to a movie that was popular to hate on, gamers would have loved it once they realized its open world and the events are triggered by an in-game clock.
>>12881379holy based
I wanted this game to be good so badly when I was younger, I was so desperate for any kind of modern Batman game. I kept coming back to it hoping I was missing something or that it would click because it had potential. There is some cool stuff in here for the time but it's just kind of a piece of shit unfortunately.
>>12880720
>>12880720Yoshi's Island. What a nightmare to play through.
The writing is pretty damn good
Better than the text game?
should I play on ps1
Would the Sega Nomad 32X attachment have saved Sega?
>>12877471Nomad was introduced 3 years before Red and Blue were stateside. There was a window there where the GB was fading from relevance and another handheld could have taken the crown. Unfortunately, the only other rival handhelds introduced during that timeframe was the Game.Com.
>>12877459No... the Neptune would've though.
>>12881620>Who cares about salesThat's exactly why SEGA almost axed your pathetic franchise.So much for that unlimited budget.
>>12882636Holy ugh
>>12877474Somebody want to drop a dime?
the voice acting is better than most modern movies. hell, so is the writing.
>>12882451it’s presumption on your part that op means it as praise. it is an indichtment on poor modern film writing and acting. you aren’t guaranteed a quality performance by hiring le shakespearean thespian, it certainly doesn’t work for all genres
>>12881890Also the hit detection on some attacks is....I don't know how to describe it. Sometimes I swear I'm missing when there's no indication I am
blood omen has adequately executed gameplay that you have to work with to get through to the next story point. it comes from an era where we put up woth jank because the game itself is unique and the presentation was great. it’s not that you lie to yourself and say it’s okay, it’s that you put up with weird control and lackluster elements because the kino factor is high and the atmosphere. this was before games like ff7. it was an important step toward the kinomatic that became prevalent. i played it recently abd found it a but tedious in parts but i finished it and was happy to revisit it
This is the only series where story quality and gameplay quality are inverse curves as the series progresses. Defiance almost has what I'd call good gameplay.
>>12880721the actress who played Skyler White in breaking bad does a couple voices in that game and one of them she did in the sequels too.
