/vr/ - Retro Games

>>11024302
RARE rapelay, it's not even close. The collection itself is composed of retro games.

>>11024234
No but I killed one of them does that count

>>11024289
I think Ghoulies means Ghouls

>>11024234
This game was so plain and boring. Nearly nothing about the game was exciting. Complete waste of time to play.

>>11024301
No, this anon is right >>11024289
In an interview with Rare devs they said the title of the game was a play on words of getting grabbed by the gonads but with a british slang, i think it was "gollies"

>>11024270
Sadly it seems only he thought it was good/funny. My young cousin had it when it came out and I dreaded going to his house incase he played it. It was literally that bad. Utter shit, Greg, kiss my hairy ass you failure

>>11024191
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

>>11024191
nfl 2k2 on the dreamcast. got a dynasty season going on and im 3 seasons in.... 2 losing seasons and this seasons we're 5-1 right now. seems a couple of my trades worked in my favor.

>>11024264
pity my xbox emulator stopped reading discs once I updated it to the most recent version. fuck devs that put in "anti piracy" methods for emulators for old dead systems that arent sold anymore and the game are all used games. what an absolute retarded choice to make. you need muh physical copies of the disc faggotry. fuck that dev i'd stab him in his juggular for such a shit choice

>>11024140
Sounds like me

I'm pretty sure the new EZ Flash is completely different from the old one, I was surprised they reused the name.

>>11024150
Everdrive people no speak english either though right

>>11024150
Based chinks doxxing that random swede

Early EX flashes sucked ass but so did every GBA flash cart. The Omega Definitive edition or whatever it's call is actually the perfect GBA flashcart, it does everything.

>>11024030
KoF is my eternal fave, I love them all up to 11 but could never pick a fave between 98 and 02. I like to play just about everyone, but my go to when I want to pull out a win is Iori, Athena, Kim.


Second favorite would be Mortal Kombat 2, which really doesn't hold up well but still has a special place in my heart because of how obsessed with it I was and it got me to truly love the genre.

After that it's hard as there are a ton I love so picking just one is hard. There's a lot I like about SF3, but similarly with Darkstalkers, Samshow and big shout out to Budokan which still delights me in it's weirdness. But to chose just one more I'd give it to Last Blade 2.

Guilty pleasures if you could call them that aren't retro, MK9 and Injustice the later of which I was super deep into at the time. The guiltiest of pleasures being blaring the Wonder Woman theme over the mic while moping the floor with people.

What are some funny fighting games

>>11023965
sounds nice

>>11024370
>sounds nice

i don't have a joystick tho

without a joystick it's not worth it, buds

I guess you can use gamepad yep

Assault Suit Leynos / Valken
Front Mission: Gun Hazard
Xenogears
RAD
Virtual On
CyberBots
Zone of the Enders
Custom Robo series
Armored Core series
Carnage Heart
Tail Concerto

Not Armoured Core or Robotech, that's for sure.

>>11023923
Why exactly?

>>11023902
The joke is that the game becomes Halloween themed, which means Koopas wear scary masks, ie Mario masks. Mario is like some mass murderer to them.

>>11024091
Yeah Mario has a I Am Legend sort of background story

There's a greater debate:
Is OP a huge retarded faggot?
Yes

>N64: 388 games
>Saturn: 1028 games
>PS1: 4105 games
"Would you rather have more games or less games?" Gee I wonder

>>11023873
Time has judged cartridges to be better from a financial standpoint. Hand-me-down and used N64 carts (along with the GBA and DS) have created brand loyalty in this generation of zoomers that has allowed Nintendo to flourish. Millennials didn't trust their younger siblings, nieces, and nephews with their discs. Or if they did the discs didn't stand up to the handling from grubby little-kid hands.

>>11023943
That's basically a type of cartridge.
SSDs are so cheap now you could put individual games on them and configure your emulator to load whatever game is on them automatically if you wanted that tactile cart swapping experience.

Cartridges are obviously the best format because flash memory is superior in 2024, which retroactively must mean it was better in the 90's too
t. a coping retard

>>11023869
Finally, some gen 7 on /vr/

>>11023941
>becoming
It became deluxe ps360 over a decade ago.

Were the graphics the only hype around this game? I played through 2 twice and it was cool but it wasnt some mind blowing experience

>>11024262
>Were the graphics the only hype around this game?
Absolutely, it's whole marketing and the game's very raison d'etre was its graphical benchmark.

>>11023869
Not retro.

>>11024032
Ultima Underworld is best known for making Bethesda a little bit nervous before they released Arena. If it was actually a good game we might've dodged Skyshit

>>11024112
Just don't be bad at video games

>>11024308
>Just enjoy driving a car with square wheels

>>11024235
Controls are more complex, but you'll learn them pretty quick. You don't have psi powers or such, and the combat focuses on using gun, you also got throwable grenades coming in different types. Inventory is simplyfied, no stats to upgrade and and generally less content compared to SS2

Its hard to compare these two. Both are pretty good, but I would say SS1 requires more dedication, and cant really be played as "casualy" as SS2

>>11023824
remake is better

>>11023804
I like silent hill 2 and 3's approach. The subject matter of the environments is drab but the art style itself is fully saturated with stark blacks and occasional lighting and texturing that pops.

>>11024012
I like the ones from megadrive, psx, ps2, dreamcast, gba, gbc, PC, xbox and supernes

if I could only fit 1 PS2 tony hawk game, which is the best one (singleplayer and multiplayer wise)

>>11024098
3 is the last real tony hawk, 4 onwards fell for the open world format

>>11024098
>single player
there's only one answer, THUG.

>>11024170
sonic 4 was just sonic the portable until some executive had the big idea that "if we trick them into thinking it's sonic 4 it'll sell more!" before the game tanked, the brand tanked, and he probably blamed the devs and got promoted

>>11024192
That's embarrassing, they could've ported the Stealth remasters of S1-2 to platforms outside of Android/iOS around that time.

>>11024164
Pocket Adventure exists though

>>11024203
That was just portable Sonic 2, but with 3&K's music.

>>11024192
>the game tanked, the brand tanked, and he probably blamed the devs and got promoted
They don't think it be like it is.
But it do.

>>11023725
How is the 3d Saturn game?

I'm the ranked number #1 worldwide player in a particular map on a particular console of the newest Jajamaru game, ask me anything.

>>11023769
I've only played the PSX version of that, and it looks like the PSX version is basically a prototype while the Saturn version is the finished game. Anyway, it's okay. Not bad, not great.

Like all Jajamaru games.

>>11023810
How did you hear about this series

>>11023953
I had always heard the name around but I think I only really tried it after playing "Haggleman" in the GCCX DS game, which is an homage to Jajamaru, and I liked it enough to check the originals.

Because the campaign in Academy sucks.

>>11023621
I played academy because it was $10 cheaper. Online duels were fun but I always lost. Played pretty good on my dell inspiron 1100.

It wasn't.
People just hated it because it was different.

>>11023621
This games pretty fucking huge, it starts really slow though

>>11023796
The 2000s had tons of distinct culture anon kun were you just too young for it? Maybe in 10 or 15 years time all the millenials will let you know about it from their perspective

>>11023742
Just play 4 lol

>>11024207
Please screenshot and post file list, I'm not redownloading GTA radio if it's the same as what I got

>>11023796
>or if the 00s just didn't have culture
People say shit like this and then complain about things back in this era were "edgy and too different". Make up your minds.

>>11023796
GTAIV was set in 2008.

>>11024153
The trick is to respond but to put sage in the options tab

>>11024173
You can't sage anymore

>>11024258
Of course you can >>11024269

>>11024278
Doesn't look like sage too me

>>11024346
Do you not know what the term means? Look at the timestamp and that it didn't go to the top of the catalog. Like this one. What did you think it does?÷
