What's a /vr/ PC game that I can sink 100+ hours into? I've played BG 1,2 Fallout 1,2Diablo 2 DOOM and other retro FPS (but mostly DOOM)Civ 1 onlyDune 2, 2000AoEPanzer general 1,2HoMM3 but I disliked itSo, after all these, what can I play for a long time? If they have mods (custom shit) it's even better.

>>5811309I would tell you if you hadn't decided to use a symbol of hate of bigotry for your op
>>5811309MASTER OF ORION!!!It's a turn-based 4x set in space. Get Master of Orion 1 & 2, they get on sale over on GOG all the time.
>>5823948I got it on sale on Steam ages ago, never really gave it a proper go. Was hard to find much info on it online (the generic name doesn't help I guess) but it seemed like a solid homage to the Might and Magic 3/4/5 era of grid based open world RPGs. Will have to give it another try. Is there a particular class/build I should be using for a smooth first playthrough?
>>5816142>Blood Lust>AEther SparksGreat montage but those spells are from Caster of Magic (mod)
Why is this game never talked about around here?
>>5826872Clunky doesn't mean laggy, it means awkward movement. The mouse, fish, and bee animals are the only ones that don't feel funky. I'll give the digging guy a pass since he doesn't feel clunky once underground, but the rest I wanna drop the exact moment the level lets me.Clunky controls doesn't make for a bad game, but it's not a point in it's favor either. I like Wonder Boy in Monster Land, but I can recognize the controls are ass in that game.
>>5826881Awkward in what way, and after the exceptions you listed what's left? The gorilla and the lizard? Is it because they stick to and climb walls?
>>5826402For some reason I remember magazines hyping the hell out of this, but I never played it
>>5826402try not to make a thread about every shitty game james and mike play every single week, jesus
>>5826873>It's production however is just tragic.Can I get a rundown?The game is great, the movie is okay, the comic is God-tier.
Why does this game never get any love on /vr/?Favorite mercs? Favorite party setup?1.13 autists not welcome, 1.12 vanilla master race
>>5823835Try something, just like everyone else.
>>5823931I don't mind it. Probably because I don't play with headphones.
>>5806138this. 1.13 is merc kino
>>5823835The golden rule when playing for the 1st time is to try vanilla. Because that's the game that came to be. Mods are cool, but they just aren't the original game.

Have you ever found a secret I a video game that was so obscure that most people who played that game never knew about it?What was the secret?
I accidentally figured out how to have different guns in each hand in GoldenEye, sent a message to a magazine and nearly a year later someone else sent it in and it got printed
>>5821949Get this tinfoil hat shit out of here.
>>5824574Softlock occurs when you eventually have to return to the water temple and an event should occur. I was unable to trigger the event, so I couldn't progress the game.
lmao i have two games in mind that i cant fucking remember, and spend quite some time searching for them and found nothing, the first one is a naval battle in 2D where some ships come from the sides of the screen and sometimes a submarine launches a torpedo from below, it had some mines floating around too, the other one had a chicken protagonist, 2D plataform and once you started a level the game made a clucking sound quite fun both of them

Perfect Dark for sure - been playing it recently on PC with mouse and keyboard, it holds up pretty well and the entire aesthetic is beautiful

Been recently playing this series of games that I never got into as a kid. I'm really struggling with the 16bit ones, but just beat pic related after playing off and on all day. What's your favorite contra game? I like the aesthetics, speed, and music of Hard Corps, but I'm not a big fan of boss rush style games.
Agreed with OP. Hard Corps would be a better game if it had more actual levels.
>>5821424Super C had better platforming, more balanced guns, and better soundtrack than Contra. Overall it's better than Contra and if you disagree you're a fucking normie.
>>5821424Contra, Super C, Alien Wars and Hard Corps are all so good in slightly different ways that it's impossible to choose; my favourite just changes depending on what I'm in the mood for that day. Alien Wars may have the best track, though, in this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPPTlI9Q1ogPounding through some big speakers with the sound of the flamethrower going off is incredible.
>>5821424Contra is a good training for Super C, but my favorite is Contra, was the first videogame i played so only for that, in terms of dificulty i preffer Super C
My favorites would Hard Corps and Shattered Soldier. Personally I'm more of a fan of the boss rush styled Contras.
I recently picked up a 27" JVC D-Series, and the color, geometry, and convergence are all pretty good. It has a little darkness up in the top right corner though, and I wondered if anyone here would know if it can be fixed.Any ideas?
>>5826658>No new postsNot an expert but magnets in speakers do that shit to old tv's
>>5826658>>5826743Completely normal.No CRT is perfect.Turn off the test patterns and play games.
What were all of the official models/variants of the N64 controller?
>>5826583I had this impression when I was the unlucky one to use it, but I always assumed it was due to the fact that it was the least used controller, so the analog wasnt raped as much. The buttons overall also felt better to press, I just could never get used to the handles thing.
>>5826286I had a SuperPad Yobo. Utter shit. The Z, L, and R buttons would intermittently stop working, and the joystick had dead zones. Plus, those little extra buttons, if pressed by accident, would either make any game freeze right up, or make the entire controller quit working until the console was reset.
>>5826586That actually looks kinda neat. Though, I don't care for that color.

>>5805919It was filled with water when actually in use. Here's a video: https://youtu.be/vDHqfhyCbbM?t=496
>entrance fee scenarioI'm barely breaking even here. The new (red) coaster means I can pump up the admission fee, right? It's at $20 now since $25 got me the "worst value park award" and no visitors.How the hell am I supposed to make real money in this.
I did end up finishing the scenario, but only barely. This is what I managed to build by year 3 of a 4 year scenario. Got me just over the guest target with two advertising campaigns.You can build surprisingly good and cheap steel mini coasters if you have a hill like the brown one on the top does. Could've made that one plenty better if I'd had the money.
Any more charts for underappreciated platforms, or other classics that are not EOP-friendly?

>>5825398I bought the super sd system 3, not cheap but it also acts as a flash cart. Rondo plays well on it. The CD hardware is getting quite flakey and is showing it's age.It's not cheap, but it's all where your budget and gaming priorities are, for me it was worth saving up for a few months to get one.

Are any of these retro mini dedicated consoles really worth it as far as a way to play retro games? The NES Classic Edition, The Super Nes Classic Edition, PS Classic, Sega Genesis Mini and the Turbografx mini? I'm really interested in the Turbografx mini. I always liked that little console and would have wanted to try it out physically, but I could never really justify buying an actual Turbografx 16 with its expensive library of games.
>>5826798I picked up a ps1 classic 2 weeks ago for 20 bucks at best buy. I got a 128gb scandisc flash drive and loaded it with autobleem and retroboot (retroarch). It really was as simple as drag and drop to install then drag and drop roms. Runs NES SNES GB/C GBA and Ps1 great. It ran psp okay ( only tested crisis core) retroboot has a DS core but it was shit. I haven't tried it yet but saw videos of drastic DS emulator running smooth on it. Overall nothing my pc couldn't do. But it's nice to have to have a dedicated device just for emulation that I can hook up to any tv in the house. Autobleem requires the 2nd usb controller port to be used by a flash drive. Friend brought over a usb hub and we had 2 controllers hooked up in the one port and played 2 player fighting games just fine. The controllers are really nice and worth it for the 20 bucks I spent alone. >>5826803I can confirm this is true.
