I'm still having fun on my local barely working Tales of the Arabian Nights. Before this one there was Creature from the Black Lagoon, which was well designed but the rules were surprisingly shallow.

Who the fuck thought this was a good idea.
Thinking about getting me a N64 again, but prices are turning me off (specially the expansion pak).
What some games you guys want to play before diying?
>1. Green Hill Zone
>2. The level with the cool music and the blue centipede things
>3. The waterfall level where Dr. Robotnik raises those two totem poles
>4. The casino level
>5. The lava level
>6. The cave level
>7. Oil Ocean Zone
>8. That metallic level that has three acts
>9. Sky Chase Zone
>10. The airship level
>11. Death Egg Zone
He was born in 1987 and last played Sonic 2 around twenty years ago. I kind of felt a sense of superiority since I still remember all the level names by heart, whereas he acts like an Alzheimer's patient.

I've been poking around the game.blb files a bit and have tried working out the format using the de-compiled game executable to no avail.
In order to die happy, I simply must work this mystery out.
I've even messaged Mark Lorenzen for help so let's see how that goes.
Apparently there is a tool called "ToolX" which turned animations into the proprietary format

Only 5th gen isnt emulated well which is the big downside. N64 and Saturn will probably never be fully compatible but at least for N64 you have the Wii VC library. PSX on the other hand has improved a ton this year alone, I tried WiiSXRX and was really impressed. Had Symphony of the Night running perfectly. Unfortunately its still low compatibilty and it doesnt have 240p support yet but hopefully soon.
Right: atmosphere, detailed maps with neutral cities, nice visual and physics effects, singleplayer missions variety.
Both: nice art style, engaging plot, great music, nice looking graphics.
Also, retro RTS thread.
I'll start:

Bowser's castle as the opening level is very underwhelming. Rosetown is a complete bore. Toad is a bore. Moleville is a bore and also racist. It really isn't until Booster tower and Bowser joining the party that you get kino after kino. The sunken ship, the star dream world, marriage town, cloud world, the power rangers, the hits just keep coming nonstop.
But until then...?
Crocko...punchinello...arrow weirdo... Really other than Geno it's a borefest. Just thought that was interesting...like they brainstormed all this awesome stuff but realized they need to do filler to pad out the beginning
I remember playing it on my dad's old 486 growing up and getting stuck pretty early on. Well, that and CD Rom sounding like it was going to take off and fly away every time I played it.
played ff1, dragon warrior 1, ff6, and chrono trigger. all good shit. but I feel like thats the ones everyone plays and knows about.

Unlike the previous games in the Zork franchise, which were text adventures, Return to Zork takes place from a first-person perspective and makes use of video-captured actors as well as detailed graphics and a musical score; a point-and-click interface replaced the text parser for the first time in a Zork game. The overall gameplay style was somewhat similar to Myst, although Return to Zork predated Myst by a few months. Unlike Myst, which had no extraspatial dimensions of functionality, Return to Zork features multiple ways of interacting with each object in the game world, as well as with several non-player characters also present in the world via a menu which appears on the left side of the screen. It also offers multiple ways to "complete" the game.
Return to Zork was a key part of Activision's attempt to revive the company, overseen by new president Bobby Kotick. Purchasing the company with his business associates, Kotick "fired all 200 employees and implemented a bankruptcy reorganization plan", according to Jeff Sengstack of NewMedia. The goal was to capitalize on Activision's lucrative back catalog of licenses, chief among them Zork. Kotick noted in 1996 that "Zork on a brick would sell 100,000 copies".
Return to Zork is set in the year 1647 GUE, later than any other game in the fictitious history of Zork, including those made after it. Even the relevant backstory postdates all other games, beginning with the Great Diffusion in 1247 GUE. The events of earlier games and even the Great Diffusion, to a degree, have come to be regarded as archaeology or even mythology by this time. Some locations and items place 1647 - such as a club for viewing stand-up comedy performances - as contemporaneous, or at least similar, to the late 20th century.
I personally did not care for the Phantasy Star series, but for once I actually agree with a lot of entries on this list. Number 1 is right, for once.
Overall I think it's an above average JRPG, but it has some glaring problems that are seriously hampering my enjoyment
I only care about what happens to Serge, Lynx, and Kid. The story was cool but now it feels meandering. The game is way too easy, I think I've only gotten one game over. The battles with common enemies are too slow and the rewards are rarely worth it. The battle system CAN get complex, but with the "Elmo's First RPG" difficulty, strategy isn't something I need to consider for most fights.
I know it's a common complaint but it can't be stated enough that there are simply way too many playable characters in this game, and 90% of them are extremely shallow and same-y. What is this, Pokemon Blue?
I have used different write speeds.
Every single one of these boots into a black screen on my Playstation that has a Tonyhax memory card.
Wtf is it with this game not working on burned discs, anyone else ever try it? Every other game works perfectly when burned. I have never played this game and would really like to, it looks so cool. No I will not emulate it, it has to be experienced on my CRT tv.

>Figure as someone who has liked a lot of zeldas I should probably check it out, expecting a trip through a museum
>Instead it's better in terms of gameplay then basically every zelda I've played since
what the fuck? All of these people play and shit on this game and then they make their own "zeldas" and don't have the super open world exploration? Or the superb combat with insane enemy depth? How has nobody blatantly copied this game more then they have? Is it just some japanese honor thing where we have to shit on Zelda 2 because they didn't receive it well at first

>inb4 you’re bad at the game
I don’t care. I’ve beaten ocarina of time, link to the past, all of the original NES titles, and windwaker multiple times over but I have never beaten this awful game. When I was a kid it pissed me off and as an adult it still does. This is the worst Zelda game to ever release I can’t believe this game is tolerated.
New to Doom and want a good place to start.
>supports more games than enb
>works even with dx8 games
>can share settings between all games
>CRTfags say it "doesn't look right" and claim it's actually a CRT filter
kek the irony
Nod has lots good options in Kane's Wrath however in the end Marv + Mammoth spam with Hammerhead (+ Rocket launcher) support is superior to avatars and Hammerheads are superior to venom's.
