how so? there is no extra content in X4 or better music like Megaman 8? If anything it looks worse due to the transparency issues
>>
>Non arguable
Grandia
Powerslave
D

>Arguable but leans heavily towards Saturn
Mass Destruction

>I don't see any argument, you boring retard

Well the original creators prefer the PS1 version
https://www.unseen64.net/2015/03/09/interview-brian-mcneely-lobotomy-software/
>Although the final PlayStation layouts were slightly more confined overall, they were also more refined and had better balance in my opinion. The process of revising the levels presented the chance to add more polish to the flow and pacing of the game.

Now let's see the opinion of Iga about the Saturn port of SOTN...
>>
>>12556976
There is no arguement for Grandia. Saturn is the original version. PSX is a port with worse graphics (a lot less detailing in many places), longer loading times, and lag that didn't exist.

>>12557004
>creators

That's creator, singular. And what do you think the guy is going to say ? "actually the porting and changes we spent months making for the game? Yeah that was a mistake!", of course he's going to lean towards the latest release they worked on. Every dev and publisher does the same thing re-selling shitty ports and remakes claiming it's the superior version.

>Now let's see the opinion of Iga about the Saturn port of SOTN...

All he said is he can't put his name on that version. Because he didn't work on it. Duh....

Funny how you understand what you want to understand. This is all under a false premise that the creator's word is God Word anyway.
>>
>>12557004
There's an ultimate romhack that makes the saturn version awesome
>>
>>12556859
> Saturn has 8 with 2 exclusive filler boss fights and different music along with X4
> Playstation has 8, Super Rockman Adventure, Battle and Chase, X4, X5, X6, Rockman Complete Works 1,2,3,4,5,6, Mega Man Legends 1, Tron Bonne and Legends 2. 15 GAMES!

Go to sleep Saturn you had to much saki.....
>>
>>12556892
The Saturn version has longer music tracks and they loop properly, and it also has a heat wave effect in the second half of the opening stage and in Magma Dragoon's stage
>>
>>12557054
>Saturn is the original version. PSX is a port

Yeah and PS1 Vandal heart is the original version and Saturn is a port by the incompetent of Konami Nagoya

Saying powerslave is non arguable when the fucking creator tell otherwise is laughable at best,you can prefer the Saturn version of course just don't pretend there's no debate

Literally a non-issue if you play it on composite as intended
>>
>>12557063
Oh did it fix the shitty resolution problem too?

Seem pretty hard to me since the Saturn can't handle SOTN resolution

This board is for Emulation idorts, fuck off to geo cities or whatever
>>
>>12557075
Yeah the magic composite even add the second lightspot
>>
>>12557079
Yeah they adjusted it.
At the end of the day there's a new character and new areas. Worth a play for anyone who's beat the original 50 times like me. Nigger.
>>
>>12557080
Better transparency effect and shorter load time + pocketstation game
>>
>>12557081
> claims board is Emu dorks
> nothing but CRT, Ebay buys and saying which is better to BUY threads.

You just don't want to hear it do you?
>>
>>12557085
>load time
ODEs and emulation make this irrelevant, if it was ever even true
>transparency
A tiny effect difference you dont see on crt or wry a filter

meanwhile, the ps1 backgrounds and environments are all fucked up and garbled. This is fucking awful and unacceptable.

>>12557097
You type like a shitskin.
>>
>>12556893
Mass destruction is not arguable. Saturn version is 60fps, PS1 is 30.
>>
>>12557237
It's arguable because the PC version exists
>>
>>12557080
This is such a disaster

Also on Saturn you can have access to the add-on
>>
>>12557275
how do you access the add on Saturn?
>>
>>12557074
It's hilarious that the giant glass tube which is completely transparent just so happens to be cut off by the funny Playstation half of the image
Autists just need to understand that they chose to dither the spotlight
>>
>>12557069
Saturn had Super Adventure Rockman and X3 as well
Obviously it didn't get games that were released in or after 2000
>>
>>12557910
It's a seperate release
>>
>>12556859
>best version on Saturn?
Every Capcom and SNK port is better on Saturn. Probably including Resident Evil. But thats debateable. Saturn character Models are way cleaner looking. But their textures are worse. Controlls are nicer but the audio is slightly worse.

Also all the Psikyo ports are better on Saturn. Exhumed is better on Saturn. Sonic Wings Sp. is better on Saturn. Gussun Oyoyo is better on Saturn. Both Lunar games are better on Saturn. I am sure there are more. It just takes decades to really cut through the Playstation distortion field.

A heat haze effect in two levels doesn't make up for the entire rest of the game looking uglier on Saturn.

Composite doesn't magically make transparencies overlap or magically allow for fading

>>12558048
>Thats a term i havent seen in a long time.

Too bad he used the term completely wrong. Usually someone emulating all the consoles isn't an 'idort' because he precisely doesn't have the consoles (well unless you're like me and emulate even if you do have the console)
>>
>>12558082
>>12558084
I'm not seeing the difference.
>>
>>12556859
You're not gonna find any. Whatever is decent has a better arcade original and the only one that's truly improved as a game is Powerslave
>>
>>12558127
Stop liking the Saturn

The two bosses you can fight in other games really made all the difference?
>water effects fuck with timing the narrow spike-swim sections
>that eargrating effect that plays throughout Duo's stage that clashes with the chill intro music
>bitcrushed sound effects and voice samples
>worse-looking FMV compression with less-full view
You don't even get their weapons lol.
>>
>>12558272
>Gameplay matters more than graphics?
Yes.
>>
>>12558291
>the first two enemies of the game are Metalls
ATMOSPHERE RUINED
The stage is set: You're on an assignment from Dr. Light to investigate the strange meteor that crashed on a strange yet suspiciously familiar island. Everything looks normal, if abandoned. Suddenly, from out under the trees, an aloha cannon attacks! The very first sign that something is dreadfully wrong and you're in enemy territory. This is environmental storytelling, somethng which Mega Man does rarely since it's gameplay-focused, which makes sense to do on this newfangled cinematic "disc" format...
THROW THAT AWAY CUZ WE GOTTA HAVE METS
>>
>>12557004
>Well the original creators prefer the PS1 version
And yet when he went back to play it after all these years he picked the Saturn version instead
>>
>>12558272
The soundtrack is way worse on Playstation. It's just higher quality in all ways on Saturn.

Radiant Silvergun isn't a Saturn exclusive though. It was originally release in arcades.
