Pictures of Your New Games #2 - Page 19

Paratech · August 1st, 2009

I found a Dreamcast at a Goodwill around 1-2 years ago for $5. It had no A/V or Power plug, but they were easy enough to find. It was $10, but they had a 50% off sale that week. I would have purchased it for $10. I like having a backup system. I was playing those Dreamcast games on it last night for a while.

It pays to check out 2nd hand stores every week to month. I keep teasing Charline that in a while they will probably have XBOXs there since Gamestop no longer takes them in trade. LOL

I know I keep running into playstation consoles. I don't even want to think what number of console I have now, probably #11 or 12... (I have one and Charline has one but we've went through a bunch of them previously...)

I'm sorry the Midway Arcade Treasures and Outrun pictures are stock photos, but the cases I got were generic, heck the Outrun case came broken, thankfully the game works and they (Gamestop) are replacing the case.

I'm HOOKED on Wizard of Wor for the Midway Pack, it is very addictive! It is the best version of that game I've played compared to MAME or any emulator! It really makes me happy I can battle the Wizard again, and legally at that!

The Activision pack is fun as well, as legal

emulation always makes me happy.

Boy my PSP is going to get played quite a bit!

And there are still 2 or 3 emulators I have to purchase for it!

Um, boast about piracy is bad, it can get you into trouble here as that's against the rules, don't ask, don't tell, remember?

My "new" game is not really new. Actually I re-bought Colin McRae Rally. Long time ago I couldn't find any way to get it to work with Windows XP and I sold it. Later I found new tricks and regretted my decision, so I got a new copy. It's working well. Not as good as it did with Windows 98, but I'm still happy with it.

Offtopic: This is not a tech-related thread, but here are some notes for those who have abandoned CMR they couldn't get it work with XP:

1. Get a 1.05 update and XP-fix here.
2. Update the game.
3. Use Windows 98/ME compatibility mode for Rally.exe.
4. Launch the game. If nothing happens, disable the compatibility mode and install XP-fix.
6. Now the game should run properly.
7. If the game crashes during the drive, update your video card drivers.

Sidenote for nVIDIA users who suffer in-game crashes: Use Forceware 186.18 and pick Permedia 2 as your 3D-device from the game options.

These were cheap, but I'd suggest avoiding them...

Mozaki Blocks Deluxe has the wrong serial code and even that is hidden in the crappy cardboard CD case, and the Golf game was missing the serial number and didn't even let me try it.

Mumbo Jumbo fixed it for me. I can play all the games now.

An oldie but a goodie. I own another copy but lost the serial code. Dummy me went and tried a crack on the old version and trojaned Internet Explorer, yeah great. That was a long time ago, lesson learned.

I'm glad it was only $1.50 to get another copy with a valid key.

It even uses my 360 Controller! Yeah!

You suck, Squally.

Every NFS game on the PSX win so badly.

Samor · August 16th, 2009

that's the pc version. It's HP2, not the first... it was on PS2, as well as PC, Cube and Xbox.

However, the PS2 version was done by EA Blackbox, whereas the other versions were made by EA Seattle.

The PS2 version is regarded the best one, however, both versions are good.

I keep meaning to get the PS2 version...

The PC version is still fun though...

I'm a need for speed junkie though, I even like Need for speed Undercover.

Most Wanted is the most recent game in the series that I have... I lost interest after it; Carbon wasn't so good, and I didn't really like the games that came out after that one either.
It's also because of Test Drive Unlimited, which I liked a lot better than the recent NFS games.

Well I wouldn't argue the later Need for Speed games being better than the previous ones. I love the Underground ones, but after that they aren't as good as the previous ones. Still I like buying them *as cheaply as possible* and enjoy playing them occasionally. Still at the moment, I'm hooked on Outrun 2006 Coast to Coast on the PSP.

Samor · August 17th, 2009

ive been playing the XBLA version a lot recently, but also the original outrun 2 and I have coast to coast on ps2.

Coast to Coast being the best deal overall since it contains both the Outrun 2 and Outrun 2 SP stages.

The XBLA version is just Outrun 2SP (or maybe Outrun 2 SP SDX; either way, it has some small visual improvements aside from the resolution just being upped).
