Name a better pinball game
>>10874653It's a'ight>>10875652I used to play this all the time back in the day. Sonic Spinball too even though it's half platformer>>10880212I never knew there was a pinball spin-off
>>10877642Im not a jerk. I did enjoy this game too, sometimes video pinball gets too busy with all boards and warps. But i dont have many video pinball games.
>>10882204Have you played gator gold? Its a hack for the ROM, saves high scores, kills some slow down, some other miniscule stuff.
>>10882582I thought about it, when I saw this thread, but it's not as good after all.Still it's underrated.
>>10882882I have no tips.
>>10882876At least you can breathe fire, tubby.

I use Philips DVD-R and ImgBurn with .iso dumps from the Internet Archive to burn discs to this thing. The game runs fine, but the video cutscenes are always choppy with glitchy audio.Video cutscenes on retail copies work fine.Anyone else have this issue? Do you use a different DVD brand or burner?
>>10881657Ignore this anon. You need slow CD-rs to be able to burn slowly, otherwise you're stuck at whatever the disk is rated at, likely 8x or 16x
>>10881657>CD>CD
>>10881706On the disk it says it has 1-16x speed
>>10880979imgburn:psx cd-r 2xps2, xbox dvd-r 4xalso this>>10880987
>>10881706Holy fuck you're stupid, you can always burn at a lower speed
Damn this is boring
the hardest metal known to man
>long ass loading screen >watch soldiers fight each other slowly>occasionally you watch a cutscene of your character launching a fireball across the screenThis is a god tier game according to Saturnfags
>>10884807Sounds like literally any other 32bit RPG

Why is 3 considered by so many to be the best one?
>>10882331Playing RE4 at the time, the weirdo spanish midget guy made it pretty clear to me the game was tongue in cheek.
>>10879405That is true, but also is because prefered the variety of the jungle/mountain/swamp stages of metal gear 3 instead of the boring same-looking and small metal rooms of metal gear 2
>>10878604People who liked the previous games...
>>108786495 is actually pretty fun if you like collecting weapons and vehicles
>>10878558Then I guess I'm a 40 year old zoomer.
Obnoxious level design, unbalanced difficulty settings (normal is a cakewalk, hard is a frustrating mess), bosses and even popcorn enemies are massive bullet sponges, nauseating top-down stages, excessive gimmicks, and somehow the weapon swap exploit was never caught in testing. One of the few 2D Contras that missed the mark. Are we meant to spam weapon swap? It seems like it should be an exploit, but the enemies have an absurd amount of HP on Hard if you don't and just never fucking die and how could you not figure out that weapon swapping does way more damage naturally during play? I'm about to just throw autofire on weapon swap just so I can stomp this kusoge and be done with it.
>>10883969Hard Corps > Sunset Riders > Moo Mesa > Mystic Warriors > Contra 3 > Gunstar Heroest. Has no-miss cleared all these games. Gunstar Heroes is extremely overrated. I guess it's mindless fun on the lower difficulties, but Expert difficulty just really causes the flaws to be glaringly obvious. You have to choose between two equally bad controls schemes, constant screen shake, massive hordes of infinite spawning enemies with bullshit grabs, repeated stun-lock, the gun combinations are poorly balanced and poorly implemented, massive bullet sponge bosses that take literally minutes of just avoiding the same loops while doing chip damage, and just an unbalanced mess in general. If you had the ability to choose your loadout at any time or per stage (or at the very least not rely on two different RNG drops to get your desired loadout), and a stationary aim button, the game would be much better, but it suffers from being too ambitious with a 3 button controller
>>10884624>massive bullet sponge bosses that take literally minutes of just avoiding the same loops while doing chip damagesounds like you just used the lightning chaser.
>>10884656No, it's trash on Expert. Flame has the best combos
>>10878994Honestly sounds like a skill issue as Super Probotector is undoubtedly one of the best games from the early SNES lineup.
>>10884952>Super Probotector is undoubtedly one of the best games from the early SNES lineupNot exactly a shining endorsement of the SNES library.
Does the Castlevania series have the best track record when it comes to the sheer amount of top notch bangers? I can't think of any other game series that comes close other than maybe the Sonic games.
>>10884340Both Adventure games have a lot of good vocal tracks. Open Your Heart, Live and Learn, It Doesn't Matter etc. I mean Ice Cap Zone in Sonic 3 got so many remixes that there is literally a fanmade album dedicated to it. Also look at the entirety of Sonic CD (either soundtrack) or any of the songs represented in Generations>>10884420Yeah, I feel like Mario music didn't get really good until maybe Galaxy. There were a few solid tracks here and there like Bowser's Road and Jolly Roger Bay though
>>10884340>what memorable music does it have?Off the top of my head>Chemical Plant Zone>Mystic Cave Zone>Metropolis Zone>Hydrocity Zone>Ice Cap Zone>Flying Battery Zone>Sandopolis Zone>Lava Reef Zone>Lava Powerhouse(personal favorite)
>>10884431>No mention of Unknown from M.E. or Ghost's Pumpkin Soup
>>10884279the mario rpgs have a lot of em at least.
>>10884217Yeah what a confusing fucking thread"Banger" could be referring to the actual games but there's no way OP thinks Sonic games are consistent
Still the best.
>>10883421oof
>>10878794It’s good news if you’re into OpenMW features like smoother animations and multiplayer. Sheathed weapons (unsurprisingly) don’t work well with the TC’s lightsabers.>>10884001Fair opinion. I find the combat acceptable for 2002 and with everything else the game has going for it. The games afterwards have been consistent about this, combat always being “acceptable for current year” and still a step down compared to more combat-focused titles.
>>10884075>Fair opinion.In a /vr/ first, we have found common ground.I know it isn’t retro but I can’t wait to play the Star Wars Total Conversion for Starfield in 20 years. That fucking trash garbage game is dying to be made worthwhile and turned into a Star Wars game. It literally has every single mechanic you need for it down to force powers.
>>10884146I was never so exasperated playing a game as starfield, I wish Id never bought it and thats saying a lot considering I did most of what the game had to offer. Spending a whole game trying to find something to enjoy in it, I felt crazy.
>>10872946>>10873192Too bad they forever got normal legs in the later games because Toddler Howard is a fucking hack.
We haven't had one in a hot minute I'm feeling nostalgic. Post about anything Atari from Computer Space to their 6th gen releases. I might be the only person in the world right now who wants to sit down and play Video Olympics for hours kek.
>>10880445OK, that would sort of make sense.
Favorite publisher on the 2600 that isn't Activision or Atari themselves?
>>10878650>Nintendo raised the baronly part of your post that isn't false
>>10882931Imagic
>>10882931Either Coleco or Parker Bros. Coleco has more of an edge for me because I like how the cartridges look (despite them being more fragile than other carts)
Wanna check out the boktai games and since I'm not spending hundreds of dollars I'm naturally gonna be using an emulator with the patch that lets you manually adjust the sun level.Any big boktai-heads that could give me a rough outline of how much sunlight was say, a 3 on the bar vs a 10? I wanted to make it at least kind of similar to what the weather is outside or at least avoid totally throwing the balance out of wack by having the meter at the wrong setting all the time - also boktai thread
>>10882504shinbok is kind of lazy and not as good as 2 but lunar knights is just a really shitty isometic action game that completely removed all the parts of boktai that were compelling
>>10883237Filtered
>>10881637Is there a cheat code or something to make you go to Azure Sky Tower to F99 right away? Building the tower from F30 3 floors per clear sounds like pure pain.Also, making you need 6 seals where 4 are exclusives to your save data and the rest should be copied to another save data is annoying.
>>10882702Ok hoarder.
>>10884749It's an investment, I've never even played Boktai or Pokemon Crystal. You can emulate, poorfag.
what are the games you've always loved that never seem to have gotten the attention you think they deserved?while it was clearly unfinished, i still think quest 64/eltale monsters was a solid game that needed more play.
>>10884283it's quasi-turn-based, you can move freely within the arena(with your range limited by your agility stat) to position your attacks and dodge the enemy's attacks. it's pretty cool
>>10883183Yeah a fully rendered but tiny and very bland, forgettable world.
Based OP. Underrated and overhated game
>>10884283This is not low poly by Playstation or N64 standards.
>>10882986Quest 64 makes me want to vomit. It might be the worst game I've ever played.
Has anyone actually bothered with emulation on iOS? While I think it's a great step to create mainstream interest in emulators and maybe inspire some would-be devs, I just don't see the point. No buttons, no external storage. MAYBE I can see myself throwing some simple turn based Gameboy/SNES RPG's on it, but I have a couple chinkhelds and 2 hacks 3DS's, so... why?I know I'm definitely not the target audience for this, but I'm curious about everyone's thoughts.
>>10882850>big jumps>arbitrarily decides a quotient of people "don't use iPhones"
>>10882879>retro autists on this board don't use iPhones>you mean iPhones are NICHE across ALL of 4chan?Yes, big jumps.
>>10882909it's crazy you think there's that much variation in the 4chan populace to split hairs like that, but i guess it's cope to mask your lack of iphone proficiency which you have no reason to feel insecure about but seemingly doit's ok, some of us actually live outside of india and use ios
>>10882917>it's crazy you think there's that much variation in the 4chan populace to split hairs like thatThere is. Go visit /sp/ or /out/ or /n/ or /o/, you'll find lots of different types of people.
>>10882925What a hill to die on
I've wanted to play this game since I've seen it on a TV show in 1999. I finally gave it a go, and it was a tons of fun but.... 5 tracks? That's it? Seriously? I know the tracks are long and full of multi paths but still, this is really light.
>>10880775I used to treat this game like more of an adventure than a racing game. I loved exploring all the secrets in every map and finding all the cool out of bounds areas.
>>10881314>I like that it was about the New Beetle. Back then it was the hot thing and cool (picrel), today it’s like a warm time capsule.It really felt like the new millennium was going to be a new optimistic era of car design when it came out, like something from the future (Y2K). That optimism quickly died out unfortunately.
>>10884078New Beetle is a sexy little car, it has tons of personality and is both trad and modern at the same time.I agree too that 2000-2010 is easily the ugliest car decade.
>>10883687>ign doesn't have a clue what they're writing about thereThis can also be a general statement lol. IGN hasn’t been decent since the mid-2000s and has especially sucked since they were acquired in 2013.>>10884078I know, it’s a shame. Blame the govt: they force car manufacturers to adhere to both ever-increasing safety regulations and fuel economy standards, at the same time. One usually demands added weight, the other, less. It’s insane and the reason why so few beautiful cars are produced now. I’d like the choice to just buy a car with more or fewer safety features, depending on what I value.
>>10880775Like you said, the courses are very deep, much more than you would get in other racers. I understand why it doesn't have 30 tracks.
How would you have fixed it?
>>10879712no need to do so, just try to get the best developers on board , and i meant the best the ones who could do something similar to kingdom hearts 358/2 days (yes the kingdom heart DS game with really good graphics) on the saturn seeing how technically could achieve something similar.>>10880963no such thing fag,it has been proven that was a myth (which you enjoy) in reality only thing it did was increasing loading times but the amount of animation kept being the same.
>>10880730Doesn't the CDZ have some sort of other technical issue that made it faulty? Or maybe im thinking of the original jap CD release models.
>>10883624You might be thinking of the original Neo Geo CD. It had a front loading disc tray that ejected in and out. Not faulty but the moving parts can potentially bake. SNK heard complaints and feedback about the moving tray. So they made the Neo Geo CDZ as a top loading to improve reliability and have less moving parts.
>>10882028Garou vs Third Strike isn't nearly close to the gap between PS1 and PS2
>>10884010The Hyper Neo Geo 64 still had room to grow. From interviews I read, the devs at SNK were still learning the hardware and how to tap its potential. They were still very used to 2D and transitioning to 3D.

>>10883542I think the closest thing would be the Choro Q gamesAlways thought it'd be cool to have an F-Zero RPG
>>10883286>thread dies because no one cares about this game to post in it>immediately makes another thread with the exact same contentsnah fuck you retard. game sucks and so do you.
>>10883553I bet you're the same guy from the last threadWe meet again anon
>>10883546Based
>>10883557he has a point the games too niche
