What's different in the controls then? (the only thing I can think of is that UT uses a primary and secondary attack)

1) Shenmue 2 (5) 2) Grandia 2 (4) 3) Resident Evil Code: Veronica (3) 4) Skies of Arcadia (2) 5) Bleemcast MGS (1) Seeing how I enjoyed MGS and wat a technical masterpiece this is since it's emulation I think it's worth to put in my top 5 :) It's really hard to make a decision, there are so many goo...

That's a very nice set.... to start with :D Btw, are those 3rd party memcards those 4meg ones (4 x 200blocks). Cause if you are like me and don't like throwing away save games, you're definately going to need a few of them if your collection of games grows. At this moment I already have 2 official V...

Somehow I can understand it if you compare it to playing it on a fast pc with keyboard and mouse. But what if there wouldn't be such a thing? How would you see it as a game alone? (ignoring there's a superior pc version) :)

Quake 3A vs Unreal Tournament

I've been playing Q3A for a while and I really enjoy the game. But I don't have Unreal Tournament. Is it any better than Quake 3 or worse? I've played both games on pc (both being the demo versions) and I liked both. But how much is UT worth? (I need a guideline in case I'm going to look it up at eb...

This topic is about bad games. It doesn't matter if the PC versions of Q3A and UT are better, because they still are very good games. By the way, UT is an almost perfect port; the only graphical feature it lacks is dynamic lighting. And unlike Q3A, its graphic details doesn't suffer when playing in...

The NTSC backsides of the games look better than the pal ones I think. Even though the PAL cases are more fragile, I do like the look of all the blue cases standing next to each other. This brings me to the question: How were the NTSC versions of Shenmue packed? The pal version comes in a blue cardb...

only DC got that cool DC Direct Collectors box set that came with many extras... :p Also I'd say Dreampoint Segaga box set would be another one to look for... either of 'em won't be cheap when you find though... (10000+ yen for SC5P2 and 6000+ yen for Segaga) and Cleopatra's Fortune will be another...

To be honest... I don't have a PS2 since my DC provides me with all I need :D (maybe in the future I'll buy one, but that is very uncertain)

I'm curious about how far I can push it and I definately would like to see movies run on it :)

No they are different. The PAL DC cases always allow you to put in 2 cd's. Too bad those things break very easily. I'm forced to put my Shenmue 1 discs in normal cd cases because all the 'teeth' in the middle are broken... I've checked and the DC manual and discs fit perfectly in a normal PSX case. ...

Why headphones? Having two speakers at 1m. distance from your ears gives sound of better quality, plus you can feel the music. :mrgreen:

I've imported Baldr Force Exe, and it's a very nice game. Too bad there isn't a translation FAQ for it on gamefaqs.com but I enjoyed the game even though I wasn't able to read a thing. The voices give a nice impression of what's going on and the music can be great in certain scenes as well. The game...

Just what I was looking for :)

I'm looking for a good VCD or DivX player. And I only tried DcDivx, which wasn't as good as what I suspected judging from the recommended bitrate and resolution :(

I'll wait for your input to see what program I'm going to use next.
