AC7* :(

>>10892414
You aren't wrong, it's pretty much a soft reboot as an early release title on a new system. Almost the exact same thing happened with sister series Ridge Racer- the PS1 games increased in complexity and size culminating with RR Type 4, a system-straining visual and audio orgasm with multiple stories (albeit separate ones, not branching like AC3 Electrosphere), and then the first (and in this case only) PS2 release was RRV which was pretty much just "Ridge Racer 1 but HD and without Galaxian" similar to AC04 being a retread of Air Combat/AC2 without all the story and mechanics AC3 added. That said, I'd imagine it's the entry point for a lot of people who skip the PS1 games entirely- which makes them assholes, but whatever- so they didn't play AC2 beforehand to see the similarity.

>>10892442
>it lacks the camera target follow mechanic that was introduced in 3 which honestly makes it fairly uncomfy
Honestly I never used the hold-button-to-track mechanic in any AC game, it just feels bad for some reason. Vastly prefer a Dualshock and claw grip with the right analog set to camera view (and cockpit/first person mode only).

The extra world/102%? Maybe. To merely reach the credits? Take your vitamins, drink some coffee, and get good... it's so far from a 'hardcore' game. Most SNES action games were unbeatable rental-core trash, and I was able to beat this one as a retarded kid, so I don't think so.

>>10894386
How far are you OP? Remember Lost World stuff is optional, I usually skip it

>>10894417
I agree with this. It's nowhere near the level of say Castlevania or even some of the early (NES) Mega Man games

Sort of? I used to have a pretty good monitor (a Mitsubishi Diamondtron) that I would emulate a PVM with by simply inserting plain scanlines while using a superwide 1920x480 resolution to get proper aspect ratio correction. No mask emulation or anything, just black lines that I would mitigate by using the monitors SuperBright mode, which would offset the loss in brightness. That shader also simulated interlacing whenever 480i modes came up in games, but it was rather flickery. Shit was pretty cash, in any case.

I will say that for as much as people like to shit on the concept, barcades have certainly brought arcades back from the brink of extinction in the US. At least whenever I go to one in my area, they seem to do be doing pretty well, with customers ranging from little kids to manchildren to pinball boomers to drunk sluts to FGC-type gamers.

>>10894301
The demographic isn't growing though, that's the issue. Just like how online shopping killed big box retail stores, and malls are never going to be as popular and plentiful as they once were.

>>10894354
No, barcades took over the industry, and took away the business(and still working machines) from many remaining arcades. All that remains besides the barcades are a few arcades and most of them are run by hardcore enthusiasts who have no one to replace them when they die. The only reason the barcades are doing well is because they are bars first and the arcade part is just entertainment for the drunks. Remove the booze, and the barcades are going to do just as well as modern arcades.
Thinking that barcades turning a profit means arcades are reviving is a bit like thinking that your local comic shop turning a profit from merchandise, board games, and CCG's, means that comics are becoming popular again.

>>10894390
Were mall arcades not arcades? Were minigolf arcades not arcades? Were lasertag arcades not arcades? Roller rink arcades? Bowling alley arcades? Restaurant arcades? US arcades have a lifelong history of being attached to other things, and is how the vast majority of people experienced arcade games, even during their heyday.

>>10894354
I don't understand the problem people have with barcades as long as they have real games and not just a bunch of ticket machines. I went to one that sucked because 1/2 of the machines were effectively just mobile games where the goal was to earn tickets to turn in, and the other half was games. However, I've also been to ones that had none of that ticket nonsense, and were just filled with classic arcade cabinets. The quality of the barcade comes down to the owner, much like Galloping Ghost. If the owner actually cares about the machines, and fixes them up himself, it's probably going to be a good barcade.
>>10894390
Don't forget that mobile games effectively replaced the "classic" score-attack arcade style game. And many of them are free. Some of them are even good. All of them fit in your phone, which you can take anywhere. So at any point, you can whip out your phone and try to go for a high score. Kids at large have no interests in arcades, and why would they? They grew up with more, cheaper offerings. Barcades appeal to both normie and sperg adults. Normies feel safe because they can drink. Spergs feel safe because they can play games. It's honestly a great middle ground, and a pretty genius combination.

>>10894405
The difference here is all of those were when arcades and arcade gaming were far more popular than they are now. You don't see many random arcade machines at your local gas station/pizza joint/bowling alley anymore precisely because they don't make big profits anymore. The barcade isn't getting big profits off the arcade machines, they get the money from the alcohol.
Again, take away the alcohol and the barcades will be struggling to stay afloat just like the arcades they killed off.

>>10894087
the SNES has a hi-res 480i mode, silly and in fact it was the first console to be able to do 480i. it only supports 16 colors so nothing really uses it. Flash carts use it for the menu screen though. the PS1 also had a hi-res mode but it's just used for menu screens in a few RPGs. too slow otherwise. the N64 had 640x480 mode and it's used by Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine but they still letterboxed part of it so they could run the game faster than 10 fps.

>>10884723
>look i buy my stuff from murrican shops because they are 3D printed on my country making the product more expensive ignore the fact the PCB from sdsnes is made in china and is quite cheap.
5 years with my sdsnes from china and still working without issues came with lot of titles included and was really cheap.
i see no issues in putting more games if it came with 800 games already like star ocean,star fox,yoshi island,doom,dragon quest,bahamut lagoon and so on.

>>10894109
Hate to be that guy but the genesis did 480i well before the snes did.

>>10894195
only doubles the vertical height. the SNES has actual 512x448 in hi res mode. I think only one game (a racing game I think it was) uses it for actual in-game graphics otherwise it's just seen in RPG menus.

>>10894109
>it only supports 16 colors
This is a weird "fact" that keeps coming up. Hi-res mode has access to the same palette registers as normal mode and it uses the same double wide character format for palettes. IIRC the only minor issue is in the double wide format you have half the resolution on which palette goes with which tile so instead of a palette per 8x8 it's a palette per 16x8 or something like that. But there's no restriction on number of colors. In fact there's very little reason to restrict yourself, you don't get a choice in the matter, it's not like you can save VRAM by refusing to use more than 1 palette, the SNES always uses 2-byte tilemap addressing.
That racing game I've forgotten the name of just got lazy and other games it's mostly to do with being a menu, you don't really need more than 16 colors to display some text on a background. Someone posted a ROM (with source) a while back that demonstrates multiple 16-color palettes with no trickery.

One of my favorite wad readme quotes is one mapper saying: "my playstyle is primarily demons infighting with a little bit of berserk punching". I can't help but remember it whenever I run into level with no ammo.
Ironically, the level he was talking about was pretty fine ammo count-wise, but only because that project's author forced him to go through entire map putting extra ammo everywhere after play testing it.

Just finished pirate doom 2 (which was quite good) and now I'm playing Terror Signal. Really liking the combat in Terror Signal so far. The self-resurrecting zombies are a good addition to the roster.

https://www.pscave.com/ps1/items/shields.shtml

>>10894350
It's a classic game with items that only certain characters can equip and Odin/Tyrone is the only one who can equip the "heavy" armors although there are lighter armors later in the game with even higher def value that Alisa can equip. Penalties/bonuses are kind of arbitrary and on some logic about the item or its materials. Some of the armors/weapons/shields lower or increase your stats. The Playstation2 remake still works like this but adds a few more new items. I played it a few years ago.

"Clip on controls are gay" The galileo g8 is supreme. And this is the most faggot of responses you could come up with.
Hardly any handhelds have the dpad in the right spot either so let's both look to the future on that one.
Screen ratios can be altered or changed via video layout. "Muh black bars" < but this still happens with a lot of handhelds especially amongst different systems bein emulated or with aspect ratios that don't match the given handheld....

Gee it's almost like any made up bullshit excuses you comes with are asimilar to the issues you guys kvetch on and on about with most handhelds. Cept I didn't pay for said handhelds or collect a bunch like some fomo fag. I get th same functionality or more using what I had laying around and you had to orders yours from accross the pond.

>>10893378
I mean, I know why I shitpost here. But bruh; these autists will screech eternally about why the phone in your hand isn't a proper option.

I even admit that there's a few manufacturers that SEEM to have a quality device. The rp3-4, the odin series, and a few others here. But most everythin else is cheap knock of trash that will break in a year and they will with a serious face advise you to not pre-order so as to not get a "bad" model..... Or wait until hardware/bugs have been fixed. But you can see in the reviews and youtube how most of the handhelds that come out have caveats or outright flaws to their design. They'll spend all ay in here talking about how the next model will be better or hoping that it is. It's too bad these designers are out of sync with their customers a majority of the time. Whenever something good comes out; it certainly stands up to the stance "I've" taken on the matter; but it's always a 1/10/gamble on these devices. For me; a phone works and lasts for years; even when the os is no longer updated; obtaining apks is easy. And there's good controllers to be had from cheap to premium quality. Controllers which have lasted me longer then some of these handhelds will function.

It's certainly not fucking ideal... is this your cope for having a shitty PC or this version of the game? Don't pretend that you weren't ecstatic with every PC upgrade running all your old games maxed out, as if you finally got to really play them. I'm over the hill, believe it or not, don't care but I'm tired of this "heh only zoom-zooms care about framerate heh" revisionist vr-tard bullshit. Dude, anyone who upgraded their PCs in the 90s KNOWS that's not true.

Mostly had to do with the fact that those games also had to run on the Apple II so they couldn't do l33t hax0r programming tricks. But also because NTSC C64 are hard to do demo effects with due to the short blank.

by todays standards a c64 is pretty expensive, you can get a decent gaming pc for what the c64 with disk drive and monitor cost if you account for inflation. I don't think actual poor people got a c64 until very late.

>>10888302
Out of the recent ones I've been playing 720 skateboarding and paperboy. Wonderboy 1 and 2 are pretty good too. Sega games are pretty decent overall.

Popular ones I've heard from others are Impossible mission and r type. For how good the graphics are its easier for me think of good spectrum games which is odd.

It was funny back then that people didn't realize it was worth paying twice as much for a computer that is 10x more powerful. Weird attitude back then.

>>10894376
>Australia
And no, it was really cheap, like $150 in 1985 in the US. It was cheaper than the NES. The disk drive was expensive though, it was around the same price as the computer, although that's about as much as 4 NES games, so in the end you're saving a lot of money if you're going with C64.

>>10894376
>by todays standards a c64 is pretty expensive
The C64 was often sold at deep discounts. Jack Tramiel was a business bastard and would cut his own throat to squeeze out a competitor. Everyone I knew with a C64 got one during one of those crazy sales. And we were all rocking tape decks because nobody had the money for disc drives.

oh right, the game where the main discussion is purely sexually deprived trash and some attention whore artist, because the actual game is pretty average and the developer likes to see their work violated and milked by shady Californians.
