vagrant story.....

[fivefeet8]

Well, here are some shots from a game that I hadn't put up shots for before.. Looks and runs pretty sweet with 4xFSAA...

[fivefeet8]

Here is another one.. this is from the beginning of the game.. I hope I can play this game some more and get more shots in here.. Very little time to play games these days.. No wonder most of my posts are from very late in the day or very early in the morning.. Work and school..

[fivefeet8]

Close up of the main character.. Well.. Until later when I can get to play some more.. Hmm.. Test on Tuesday.. Project due tomorrow.. Working.. Maybe..

[The Vagrant]

dude those pics are totally awesome.....hell ya..............Vagrant Story in all it's splendor...............damn I look fine:eek:

[Prafull]

Fivefeet8 ,you continue to force me to get more and more new games.Well those screenshots are just terrific.I think I need this game too:D

Btw even if you are less frequent on boards please continue to post such brilliant screenshots.

[fivefeet8]

Less Frequent? Hehe.. I come check the boards everyday.. Its just I don't post as much.. Only time I post is when something interests me or I can help someone.. I rarely post useless banter.. When I get more time, I will post some more shots of this game.. And Alone in the Dark 4.. My screenshots are done with Adobe Photoshop 6.0 It allows you to choose jpeg quality.. Looks way better than using the windows paint program..

[SHIN GOUKI]

nice screen shots m8

[fivefeet8]

Finally had some free time this weekend to play a little more.. With that comes more shots of this game.. :)

[fivefeet8]

This game looks sweet!! running on epsxe of course.. 4xFSAA helps too..

[fivefeet8]

Here is a shot of some blur effects being used.. Looks pretty good.. IMO..

[fivefeet8]

Sun flares.. cool effects.. My system specs are in my profile..

[fivefeet8]

Vagrant story is pretty good.. Even though some people don't seem to like it.. Its sorta like a midevil MGS..

[fivefeet8]

Check out this shot.. I like the closeup.. Its cool the way the dialog boxes are comic book styled..

[fivefeet8]

Character shots..

[fivefeet8]

Another close up on that...... hehe.. Nice.. Ok enough hormones for tonight..

[fivefeet8]

I like this scene.. Its so cool and calm.. Until....

[fivefeet8]

Free.. The dream within.. A light is shining.. A dream.. A sign... Escapes from heaven..

[fivefeet8]

The first Boss.. Easy win.. I have cheats as you can see.. Downloaded some save games from www.gamefaqs.com

[fivefeet8]

Front shot of the first boss..

[fivefeet8]

Lighting bolt his ass.. Cool effects.. I have set lewpys glide pluggin for full effects..

[fivefeet8]

Maybe this one is better.. Lightning effects always look nice..

[fivefeet8]

He is dead.. This game is kinda hard without any cheats.. Still easy for skilled players though..

[fivefeet8]

Now he is mad.. Don't get Riot mad.. He has got a huge cross sword..

[fivefeet8]

Back into the dream.. A sneak peak at Riot's past.. No wonder he has no emotion..

[fivefeet8]

This is just a cool shot.. The leaves look damn good.. Nice.. A family picnic..

[fivefeet8]

I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't played the game.. Look at his face.. Something horrible happend..

[fivefeet8]

Tiring dream eh.. Nice acting by the way.. hehe..

[fivefeet8]

Riot's riot..

[fivefeet8]

Some magic spell shots.. Exorsism..

[fivefeet8]

Meteor!! Gets pretty dark when you use magic..

[fivefeet8]

Here comes the second boss.. Ghost armor..

[fivefeet8]

Can't do nothing against my huge ass cross sword..

[fivefeet8]

Second boss shows his stuff...

[fivefeet8]

A little flame magic..

[fivefeet8]

Or a lot.. hehe.. In motion.. gotta see it in motion..

[fivefeet8]

Guess you all know where I stopped.. Hopefully I'll have more time to play again..

[fivefeet8]

The stone boss..

[fivefeet8]

There are some huge ass bosses in this game..

[fivefeet8]

Just did some magic on the stone monster..

[fivefeet8]

Green Dragon boss.. Looks freaken awesome.. Especially running one epsxe..

[fivefeet8]

Looks kinda like a T-rex.. Huge dragon..

[fivefeet8]

Ack!! He tried to bite me!! Luckily it missed.. hehe..

[fivefeet8]

Green dragon's huge Tail whip.. Missed.. Shwing.. I gotta admit, using Andy's new spu sure makes the sound effects all better.. No more beeps when walking and jumping..

[fivefeet8]

Now it's time to kill em.. Some magic.. Earthquake!! Level 4...

[fivefeet8]

Pretty nice game.. Sorta like Parasite Eve with a dungeons and Dragons twist.. with a touch MGS..

[fivefeet8]

Last one for tonight.. Evil Lovers.. I will probably have to kill one or the other later on in the game..

[ToM_E]

OMG!!! These Screen Shots are so nice...what video card are u using?

[Ryos]

Tom_E: from his PC configuration: voodoo 5 5500 agp

[ToM_E]

OH!!! Voodoo 5 eh? I always wanted a voodoo 5....ARGH!!! click my link---> http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1288248753

[Ryos]

Now that's a lot of money.

[Takmadeus]

hey, cool! you got the holy win sword!

well done (it took me a while)

how many titles have you acquired?

[ToM_E]

Yeah...No kidding. Even if Voodoo 5 6000 agp is really hard to get...thats too expensive. I seen pictures where you have to connect an adpater on the back cause of the 4 heatsink fans. :eek: YikeS!!!

[ToM_E]

Here it is

[fivefeet8]

1. Seeker of Truth
....
...
...

...

..

32. Martial arts master

[FireGL]

to tell you the truth i i like the TOD2 than VS well good luck on playing

[ToM_E]

I WANT THIS GAME!!! :(

[fivefeet8]

Here goes some more shots of this game.. I can't stop playing.. A silver dragon..

[fivefeet8]

Just got blasted by some dragon breath..

[fivefeet8]

I'll just bust some ice magic on his ass.. He is smaller than the last dragon but pretty tough.. Luckily I have the most powerful weapon in the game..

[fivefeet8]

What the Hell?!! A huge ass crab? hehe..

[fivefeet8]

Damn.. Where is godzilla when you need him?

[fivefeet8]

Now I am fighting a goblin.. Pretty weird looking thing too..

[fivefeet8]

Its a dual.. One of the few fights against something close to the same size as Riot..

[fivefeet8]

Its kinda weird how he just runs and dissappears into thin air after he loses.. Look cool though.. Kinda like he is running toward the wall and then poof.. he's gone..

[fivefeet8]

Some cool blur effects shot.. Riot always goes through weird lapses of visions..

[fivefeet8]

He sees through the eyes of others without his control.. Loosing control..

[fivefeet8]

Inside a workshop where you can assemble and combine weapons.. The details are excelllent..

[fivefeet8]

Andy's spu was pretty good for this game, but damn, the eternal spu pluggin is just amazing with this game.. Near perfect sound for Vagrant story.. The sounds are rather loud but they sound perfect..

[ToM_E]

After seeing this...I just realized nVidia always sucked. I always wanted my voodoo 4 back from 1 of my friends who took it. :P Any ways I bidded on 6 Voodoo 5 AGP on ebay. :) I WANT THIS CARD!!! ARGH!!! Nice screen shots...Is this game worth buying it?

[fivefeet8]

Hey tom_e...

I suggest you get the pci version of the voodoo 5 as its performance is only slightly less than the agp version.. I think it costs more than the agp version though.. This way you can use both your geforce and the voodoo 5.. I don't suggest buying any video card just for one game.. But personally, I have been more than happy with my voodoo 5 5500 agp running emulators as well as pc games.. As you can tell from these screenshots.. But you gotta admit, its not just the voodoo 5 thats giving us this quality of graphics in epsxe.. Its also lewpys glide pluggin which is extremely good combined with the voodoo 5.. Actually, lewpy himself uses a voodoo 5 5500 pci and a geforce 2 on his agp..

[ToM_E]

Wow...nice screen shots...

[ToM_E]

HOW do u actually use 2 video cards? You mean like...change the monitor cord on the back every time u want to play some other game? Eh? I heard about overclocking ur video card and doing some thingys and using 2 video card at the same time. Can you tell me more?

[fivefeet8]

WEll, I use to have a trident mvp blade video card and a voodoo3 on one system.. I was able to use glide with the monitor connected to the trident card.. Most likely you will be able to use two monitors at once.. I was able to as well.. So you can play games on one monitor while someone else uses MS works on the other monitor.. Of course you will need a powerful multitasking cpu.. It might also be possible to use the glide api of the v5 from the monitor being connected to the geforce on the agp.. I don't have the setup so I can't really say.. You can always email lewpy about it since he has that dual video card setup..

I did overclock my voodoo 5 to 175mhz from the default 166.. I heard some people have been able to get it up to 183 mhz.. Personally, I wouldn't recommend it... OC-ing your video card gives you very few extra FPS.. The best thing to do would be OC-ing your cpu and FSB... This will give you more of a performance boost..

[ToM_E]

I heard over clocking was very bad for the video cards. Hhhmmm..Is this true? And if over clocking makes better graphics...How do u overclock video cards?

[fivefeet8]

There are certain software tools which can be used to OC video cards.. It is bad to OC video cards if you aren't carefull.. YOu can burn your video card and then will need to get a new one.. Just be careful not to OC it too high.. Most of the time, OC-ing the video card too much will just crash windows or freeze it.. But some rare instances it will burn your vid card..

Software to OC any type of video card is easy to find.. Do a simple search and you will find many..

YOu can find some OC and tweaking utilities for all video cards at

[ToM_E]

Thx. That really helped. :)

[fivefeet8]

Well, I finally decided to post more screenshots of this great game.. I had some more time to play this weekend.. Lunar 2(sega cd emulation on gens) is just taking too much of my free time(what little I have)..

There are some spoilers in the later shots, but I will try to make them less conspicuous.. So if you don't want to know the truth yet, don't look at all the shots.. Or look at em, and disregard the text.. :)

First shot.. A giant earth affinity Dragon.. Uses a lot of acid breath..

[fivefeet8]

Check out the size of that thing.. Huge and green.. Where the hell is Ultraman?

[fivefeet8]

I just got tailwhipped.. Good thing it missed.. Luckily I already have the most powerful armor.. And my stats are damn high.. 3rd time through the game..

[fivefeet8]

Looks like I just got eaten.. This is the "cant find my way no matter where I go" forrest..

[fivefeet8]

A bad guy lost in the "can't find my way no matter where I go" forrest..

[fivefeet8]

The battle commands and how they look.. Very Parasite Eve-ish.. Way more complicated and harder battle system though.. Gotta time those button presses for defense and offense..

[fivefeet8]

Some more cool blur effects.. With Vsync off, the voodoo 5 does these blur effects like nothing..

[fivefeet8]

Getting close to those spoiler shots.. Don't look at em, or try to disregard the text boxes..

[fivefeet8]

The storyline gets more complicated after this battle.. Who is good and who is evil?

[fivefeet8]

A summoned monster enters..

[fivefeet8]

Ghost Armor.. Nice entrance..

[fivefeet8]

Now.. which team is he on?

[fivefeet8]

More cool blur effects..

[fivefeet8]

The plot thickens..

[fivefeet8]

3 on 1?

[fivefeet8]

Nope.. More like 2 on 2.. Then 2 on 1..

[fivefeet8]

FATALITY.. not..

[fivefeet8]

The plot really begins to get thick..

[fivefeet8]

Gettin thicker..

[fivefeet8]

Sydney is goin to show ashley..

[FireGL]

i got this game but i found it borrrrringggg!!! although it got a nice score in game spot review 9.3 IIRC

[fivefeet8]

It's ashleys visions of his family being killed again..

[fivefeet8]

You can't handle the truth!

[fivefeet8]

Now it thickens..

[fivefeet8]

Whoa.. Who is behind her?

[fivefeet8]

What the?!! Weird stuff..

[fivefeet8]

What is the truth?

[fivefeet8]

What is truth?

[fivefeet8]

Until next time..

FireGl: I found the game rather interesting.. :)

[FireGL]

[ToM_E]

Hey Fivefeet8 I guess u didnt get my private mess. How do you turn on the blurr effect? I finally made my athlon. :)
