    DC Timestalkers

    Since I'm not a big RPG buff (well, at least not on PC/console, I'm more the pen-and-paper guy), I was thinking of getting Timestalkers for DC. AFAIK, TS is some kind of a sequel to Landstalkers, one of the few console "RPGs" I truly enjoyed on Genesis. Has anyone played TS? Is it worth it?

    The WORST fighter ever...?!

    Last week, a friend of mine and I were talking about Dragon Ball-Z, and about video game adaptions of the DBZ theme. We decidet to visit our favourite video/game rental and got a copy of Dragon Ball-Z - Final Bout (or something like that, in french) for PSX... 20 minutes later, the game booted...

    Throwing stones in SlugX

    Recently, I played SlugX on PSX with a friend of mine in 2P mode. In lvl 4 (I think) we found a "stone weapon", which let us throw stones instead of hand grenades. The item looked like a stone (obviously), with a yellow/golden "S" on it. Not very effective, but it looks cool. I've never heard...

    Capcom Generations on PSX

    I have played part one and two. AFAIK, there are more parts of it, but the idiots at most of my local shops don't know about them, let alone have them. Which games do the other parts feature? Anyone with a complete CapGen collection?

    Brikin'ger Iron Clad CD

    Inspired by NeoTurfMasta's <a href="http://www.neo-geo.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=2&t=002469" target="_blank">search for Iron Clad</a> I thought I should start a thread about the game and its "mystic" status. I own the CD, and to be honest, I was never too impressed by this...

    How is KoF2k1?

    After reading some threads and single posts here and there about the new KoF I am wondering about the game play, how it feels like, wether it's better/par than/with the prequels, and so on. Since I'm living in a country where "arcade" means "slot machines", but sadly no real video game cabs...

    My AES gets unstable/resets with giga games

    All of a sudden, my AES does some strange things. Games like AOF, WH1+2 or FFS run smoothly, while the console shows faint horizontal stripes/disturbances with MS3 and KoF2k, and strangely also with Magician Lord. The worst thing is that the console sporadically resets when playing MS3 and...

    Contra Hardcorps vs Probotector Genesis

    I know that Contra HC and Probotector are basically the same game... I have Contra HC, but never had the chance to see more from Probotector than the intro (which seems to be different to Contra). Are there big differences between the two (other than Probo being the US/Euro (?) version)? Is...

    Digging out of old threads

    I realize that TonK re-heated dozens of threads before he "left" (well, sort of...), but a couple of ppl intentionally or accidently replied to all the old cruft, including myself ("Can someone translate this e-mail"), which pisses me off. Of course it's okay to repost in pending threads, like...

    MotW and KoF99 DC vs. AES/MVS

    If you compare KoF99 Evolution DC vs the AES version, you sure will notice big differences in terms of game speed. While KoF99 on AES plays quite speedily, it's dead slow on DC, up to a point where I couldn't continue playing. This is kinda annoying, considering the otherwise flawless port. I...

    European AOF cart with German manual?!

    I sold my AOF CD and bought a cart because I really love this series, but the version I got (dog tag) came with a German manual... I never knew that there have been German manual translations. Is this common, and are there more? Not that I'd have problems with the English versions, I'm just...

    What do your friends think of your games?

    When my friends and I come together for some gaming we usually choose my place; they bring the food, I supply the consoles and games. If speech turns to to console comparisons, most of my friends tell me that they have never seen such a funny and smooth game like MS3, but as soon as I pop in...

    Shitloads of MS3/KoF2k dumpers

    Uhm, a "friend" of mine just phoned me and told me he'd downloaded working MS3 roms. I went to the site (which I won't post here), and found myself on shitty rom-pages, owned and run by some French folks. "Dumping of KoF2k is nearly completed", and "The music of the MS3 dump is available"...

    KoF books - are there any?

    Neo controllers for DC

    I have controller extension cables for both systems. What do you think, would it be possible to build some kind of generic Neo-to-DC connector (female Neo plug on the one side, male DC plug on the other) to use my Neo controllers for DC? Or are there any commercial products?

    Yeah... got my MS3 US on 10/01. Today is holiday (10/03), and tomorrow will be THE DAY for me. Just was thinking about phoning my boss that I will not come to office on thu <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/drool2.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif"...

    Neo Geo system specs and console comparison

    Since there are many questions (and some legends...) about the Neo Geo system specs, here's a chart of the three major 16 bit consoles which you might find interesting: | | Neo Geo | SNES | Genesis | |----------+----------+----------+----------| |Bits (CPU)| 8 + 16 | 16 |...

    The future of Neo Geo

    Last night a few friends and I had a discussion about the future of the Neo Geo. With some promising releases like MS4, SS5 or KoF2001, I argued, the Neo Geo would live beyond 2004. None of my buddies agreed, they said KoF2001 will be the last in the series for AES, and MS4 + SS5 + MOTW2 would...

    Your average playing time per week

    I used to play most of SNK's gems more than 25 hours a week, now it shrunk to about 10 or 15 hours, due to my work and some female interventions... <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0"> What's your mileage?
