I play retro games all the time and I recently purchased an Arcade stick. It feels great and is fantastic for arcade fighters but I still like using a controller for other things like run n guns or vertical shooters. I think the only other thing I need to purchase is a good light gun and I will be set. Is there anything else I should consider buying to have a great arcade experience at home? Is it really just arcade stick + light gun?
these>>12692882 >>12692881are mine>>12692757What do you think guys? :)
>>12692941>What do you think guys? :)You’re autistic and seeking approval on 4chan, of all places.
>>12693135Please approve of me, daddy DX
>>12689451>Is there anything else I should consider buying to have a great arcade experience at home?a mecha pod and a driving sim with 3 TV screens.https://www.hopewellworks.com/work/mechwarrior-gaming-superpod/
>>12692941i think your parents own a nice property. do they know their loser son is larping on the internet?
Genuinely better than MGS. It has much better pacing, level design and overall game design.
I know this isn't /vr/, but are the Metal Gear Acid games any good? Can you play them without knowing the MGS story?
>>12692068this is your brain after speedrunning
>>12693310Acquired taste, but I like it. They're the perfect 'play while comfy in bed on a cold night' sort of games. And yes the story is its own, non canon thing.
>>12693310First one can be a chore at times and the story is a mess. Second game is a straight up improvement and if you don't have completionist tism I'd recommend skipping 1 and only playing 2. Wish there were more tactical rpg stealth games, they're usually combat only.
>>12693289Well the plot is considered non-canon anyway
Did OG Xbox have soul? It was an affordable way of playing Doom 3, Halo, Morrowind, KOTOR, etc
>>12667928>It was an affordable wayI will never understand this argument.Last time consoles were more affordable than PCs was in mid-90s, with most of 5th gen. And even then the choice was between an expensive, single function toy vs. a slightly more expensive, but multi-function PC
>>12681028Thank god for that!You are trying to make it sound like a problem and not a benefit
>>12693710The last time consoles were more affordable than PCs was 2026 bro
>>12691943God I hate westoid slop
>>12691943that would be mechassault 2 lone wolf.
When I got this for my birthday when I was 12 I'd never played a game with tank controls before so I thought my game was broken and I cried. I only got 1 or 2 used games a year back then lol.
>>12689010>>12689053All seethe no arugment>>12689052>yes I put up with shitty games that are an inconvenience to play because I'm retardedA game shouldn't be an inconvenience to play, the fact tank controls got kicked out of the franchise should tell you enough
That game made me poo my pants :(!
>>12688251>What? Tell me what consoles and games you had prior to the GameCube.A megadrive with Sonic 1 and some games I don't remember. I went straight from that to the Gamecube with RE4 and Wind Waker first, then REmake a bit later.
>>12688767OK, ubisoft
>>12691203Ubisoft games are full of ingame manuals, doesn't count
In a "who has less games" fight, who wins?And I mean games worth playing. Like they've got some all time classic but holy shit would you struggle to name 10 games on each system worth your time.
>>12692581It has 1 only less shoulder button.Unless you really think the lack of select button matters for anything
>>12692808No L1No selectNo R3/L3You can't play dark souls with this controller
>>12692808>>12692821>not enough buttonsproblem solved
>>12689727Which is a bad thing. Having virtually or literally nothing from Capcom or Namco or Konami or Sega is bad.
>>12692581One analog stick feels completely different to the other, the triggers are terrible to use for shooters and it only had one shoulder button. I've never understood the hype for this thing. The original Xbox has the same triggers anlog sticks and face buttons as the 360.
fuck this game
>>12691585Sometimes it's just easier to emulate old games because of this very reason.
>>12691660based, it's cancer
Why yes I do pick the knight as soon as I get to tokyo. Squid heads plz go and stay go.
>>12689104>>12691641>Mogs EA and Need for SneedHow did Rockstar do it?
>>12691670 >:3
I posted a retro gaming mystery a long time ago about the JB Harold Series of games.This time I found another mystery regarding 鋼鉄帝国 Koutetsu Teikoku, Empire of Steel, or Steel Empire for the SEGA MD.It's a fun game and has been rereleased a few times over the year, but a mystery still remains, what is the novel they are referencing here?Who is Caar H. Schitch?What other books could the game be referencing here?
>>12692593I'm not convinced. Why not just claim the game was influenced by Ghibli instead, since a lot of it clearly was?
>>12692585read the manual
>>12692746Not OP but just say what it is you colossal vagueposting faggot
kek solved in 1 post and OP is seething that his thread is done
>>12692746There's nothing here except for some classic art. Do we need the JP one?
What's the best faction to join for a first time playthrough?
>>12690314>for a first time playthrough?just wait for the upcoming remake, it will render the OG obsolete just like Gothic 1 remake did
>>12690337>obsolete>on UnrealshitNot even remotely.
>>12690314Mercenaries.
>>12690314>bestidk lol>coolest and most immersivemonks
>>12690321>>12690337>>12691364I fucking hate zoomers and want you all genocided, it's unreal.
how did they do it?
To be honest, I don't really understand how computers and shit work. I just play video games.
Why is it that Third Strike attracts the most posers and frauds and non-players?
>>12682051Tranny Smith is the mod, these will NEVER go away! Just go away yourselves posters!
I have a comprehensive breakdown on how I would balance Sean into a low tier but also more functional character. This is only possible for someone who understands the game.
>>12692489You're actually retarded if you think there are NO good arguments for that.especially ST. bitch about Chun and Yun being OP all you want, at least they don't have anything as easy to do and obnoxiously oppressive as Claw walldive oki.
>>12692571What's your plan?
>>12692489look up the definition of "successor"
So basically I want to have as much as possible rewards from the good ending *route* but not the *ending* itself. From what I gather, the final step is to fight Atman, so can I just skip fighting him? I think I kinda botched the first step (obtaining the grail from one of the kids from rats' hideout), but maybe I can still salvage this.
Unlike its successors, it's a true open world game.It's split into three level, to progress between them you need to earn a certain amount of money. How you earn this is up to you. You get money by blowing up cars and shooting dudes, but that's small beans compared to what you get for taking missions.Each level has three gangs in it. You can do jobs for any of them. They have set rivalries, so killing members of one gang will increase your reputation with one other gang (while obviously decreasing rep with the gang you kill). When your reputation is low, gang members attack you on sight. To do missions, you need to hit certain reputation thresholds. Easy missions can be done at neutral rep, medium missions need higher and hard missions very high rep. Due to how the gang rivalries work, doing missions for one gang will reduce your rep with its rival so there's always at least one gang in the map hostile to you.Missions are relatively open-ended. You receive a goal and have to achieve it. Sometimes there's a time limit but not always. If you fail a mission you lose rep with the gang, but can attempt it again. Missions are offered at phone booths, every phone booth has a unique mission and usually every gang has 3-4 phone booths for every mission tier, so you can pick which missions you want to do. If you repeatedly fail the same mission you can just skip it.While there's some handholding in form of an arrow that points to your mission goal, there is no strict "you have to do the mission in this particular way or bust".Missions are usually stuff like infiltrate the enemy gang's compound, steal a vehicle, bring it back to us.Go to the enemy gang compound and kill X gang members.Take this stolen car and evade the police by finding a car paint shop and repainting the car.Etc.It's a genuine open world sandbox where you choose which gangs to work for, and the only goal is to get X amount of money. The game doesn't care how you get it.No GTA after was this good.
>>12690924What does GTP stand for?
>>12690927They didn't change their name to Rockstar North until the release of GTA Vice City in 2002.
secretly? it was best gta always, none other game managed to recreate reputation system as well as this game. so many rpgs fail to have basic choice and consequences for your actions, yet gta2 from the 90s managed to do it
>>12690992Goy Troon Propaganda
>>12690926GTA was always 3D
>3x speed during battle>Infinite HP and Limit Break spam in every fight>Turn off random battles in the overworldDid I actually miss out on anything? Like really? Honestly?
>>12679792>I played the original Japanese release last year without realizing that this scene and emerald/ruby weapons aren't in it.It was fine, but sort of a let-down. Instead you just have to piece together the story from journal entries in the Shinra mansion basement in disc 3.
Surprised your also not scrolling tiktoks while playing
>>12692927I'm 33, I scroll youtube shorts. Not while playing games though.
>>12686257I thought you were being sarcastic then I googled it. What the fuck
>>12692934Gross
The first video game to use deffered lighting or something o algo
>>12689082It actually does look pretty impressive, especially compared to the gamecube version.
>>12689124I can see it. Sadly, it sucks. And Shrek goes really fast.
>>12689832
>>12689082I once saw a shattered disc of this game in a mall parking lot.
My cousin owned this and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer game on PS2. The Shrek game made me physically ill to watch it being played.
What are your favourite chillout or relaxing retro games you play when you want a comfy and casual time?
>>12692062>stop playing for a month>pick it up again>town is now covered in weeds and everyone is pissed off at youthe opposite of chill. animal crossing is a fucking chore.
Anything Wildtangent. Wildtangent games are digital Valium.
>>12692005>Doing Summer 2nd year with 12 cowsThat game was a fucking slog. The 64 game was such a monumental improvement in nearly every area.
>>12691861Not that one, for sure. All the chores, stamina and time limits stresses me harder than a survival horror.
I won't get any points for originality, but it's Pokemon.Gen 1 is my favorite, but I love all the /vr/ era games.
