The monthly USA Here 'N' Now feature from from Sega Force 5 - May 1992 (UK)
I have to say that for some reason, I look forward to the new pictures from the moustached man every single issue. I don't know why, but he always cracks me up. I love this man. 😅
I don't have any real retro games I want to play enough to say get a hold of an emulator; I fully admit most games I played 10 hours a day in my youth (the 1980s) were shit. The oldest games might actually fancy to play still functions on Steam.
Of course there were good ones like Arkanoid, Uridium, Balder Dash, Tetris and a bit later Defender of the Crown and a few others, but most were played because they were the only game in town.
@thomasbeagle tho is it really nostalgia unless you have to try to load the game 5 times while correcting the head in the cassette player until it loads...
@OutofPrintArchive Somewhere I have that Asterix game for the Gameboy Advance, where the game is 3D and looks like it could've been a PlayStation title.
Can't remember what it's called or where I put it, but I love this series.
I did have the one on Super Nintendo though.
And I remember playing the arcade beat em up back in the day, which was super fun.
Such a shame it never got a home port.
Gonna post some of the backer portraits in Devil's Hideout. This one of Roberta. 🥰 There are going to be two versions of each, regular, and horror-themed.
got a local library/bookstore that has a “take our free shit” window. They had 4 ds games there today, mint condition, like spotless stuff. 99% durability on those babys. https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/31b8a850-2884-4fed-8ff5-8d4e3782ef34.jpeg
@stdsxezat Is that the PSX or N64 version of Quake II? In the 2023 remaster Nightdive and Id added the N64 campaign; the PSX campaign is going to be released this year as a free addon for the PC version.
So, I have had a glorious moment of vindication for myself. Not only have I beaten #Alien3 on the #SNES, but I also got all the achievements for the game from Retroachievements.org, so the game is considered Mastered!
Honestly, the game was a really good challenge, I will definitely need to talk a little about this game on my channel, as there is a lot to talk about, and it certainly deserves a proper review in my opinion.
Despite being a movie tie-in game and a bit of a frustrating slog at times, it was actually really enjoyable and I can't put into words how happy I am with beating this game from my childhood!
@OutofPrintArchive If someone somehow didn’t see all of the dates on these, and somehow knew nothing of Metal Gear, and somehow thought “I wonder when this was written?” the “I like my gear solid” bubble silences all doubts.
While it's not quite the start of the weekend yet, I've lost way to much time by being sick these past couple of weeks, so I wanted to get a head start this time.
So what better way to do this than with a new magazine release.
GamesMaster 79 - March 1999 (UK) has just been added to the magazine catalogue.
Decided to pick up 2 ¥5000 PSN cards on Play-Asia last night and grab a bunch of PC-Engine and PSone games that I was still missing on my PS3.
I notice that certain games that I bought before seem to have been delisted over the years...
I was shocked that I didn't have Devil's Crush yet, despite having Alien Crush. No idea how that came to be.
I’d never heard of this game but I’m planning a playthrough of this hack. The developer put in a ton of work and I’ve enjoyed 90% of the HAL games I’ve played.
"Taki Udon, who is involved with the production of several new pieces of FPGA-based retro gaming hardware, has revealed that the upcoming FPGA handheld will use an AMOLED screen..."
Somehow my mind is having a ridiculously hard time making sense of the fact that the PS3 is nearly 20 years old. 💀
NES? Sure!
Sega Saturn? No problem!
I can easily and gladly place them in their own time zone.
But 20 years for the PS3. Yeah, this one kinda breaks me. 😱
@OutofPrintArchive I’m hoping as the community develops we get more things like open-source replacement motherboards and FPGAs powerful enough to go beyond PSX. Original hardware is great but eventually those parts are gonna be gone.
