Fightin' Gaemz - Off-topic

Who here plays 'em, and what do you play? I just got a damn nice fightstick (the Soul Calibur V TE that Mad Catz just dropped), and been playing them even more.
On 360, I'm usually playing BlazBlue: CS (haven't gotten Extend yet), SSFIV, a ton of UMVC3 (so bad yet fun), and KOFXIII. Hopefully getting SCV and SFxT soon.
PC, I've been playing Arcana Heart 3 and Melty Blood: Act Cadenza, and via GGPO been playing so, so, so much Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter. Nobody plays it, but I love it so much.
So, where's my fightin' friends on XDA?

Whoa! you're alive!

I used to be pc gamer but due to my marriage 2 years and the responsibility that came with it I suffer from a constant lack of funds. Therefore I downgraded to a nintendo wii What I miss most on consoles are tactic shooters like Ghost Recon. They simply do not exist on consoles. Yeah there are Ghost Recon games on consoles but the gameplay is completely different.
I was for a while... i got really into rts' more specifically the total war series. Rome total war is still my favourite game of all time.

Hmm.. my history of gaming goes something like this:
Pong -> Atari 2600 -> Intellivision -> (Quarter Arcade Games) -> Sega Genesis -> Nintendo -> Super Nintendo -> Dreamcast -> N64 -> then off to PC Games
Quake -> Quake II - Unreal Tournament -> Half Life -> Counter Strike -> Team Fortress -> UT 2002/03/04 -> Battlefield 1942 -> DC Mod -> Battlefield 2 -> Ultima Online -> Wow
Used to LAN and was able to get all sorts of free gear etc.
Nowdays.. playing on the PS3 casually - just started playing Black Ops - and oooooo boy do I suck at it Dunno wth happened went from MW2 to BO and its like I might as well be playing with Oven Mitts
Yea, a big time gamer from WAAAy back (I even have 5 classic full size arcade games incuding a Ms. Pac and a Star Wars cockpit).
Got em' all PC, PS3, 360, Wii, DS, PSP, and a bunch of other older and cool systems.
I prefer my games on a PC when I can, Just went through Black Ops about 2 weeks ago. Got a Kinect for Xmas, so have been screwing around with that, but, before that, was playing Super Mario Galxay 2, Epic Mickey, Read Dead and a few others.
I'm in the middle of about 4-5 games right now (not finished yet). My wife does not care for gaming and sometimes gives me a hard time but, she understands it. My 2 year old is just too little to grab a controler but, I figure by 3 and 1/2 I'll have someone to play with besides on-line.
Any shooter GTA, COD, or any game of the type, I will only play on the PC, I even waited the 7 months for GTA 4 just to get the PC version.
I have a Core2Quad @ 3ghz(Q9650), 4gb, GTX460 1gb card running Win7...runs almost everything at max that I dump at it.
i forgot to metion Deus Ex and Deus Ex invisible war, anybody played this series? its an unforgetable game, i feel like playing it sometimes these days
WoW and Sims lol

I'm gonna buy it today so I can play some Conkers Bad Fur Day. I'll let you know!
I got it, will test it during lunch, I tried running it on my Droid 1, choppy but playable. Lets hope it flys on the Gtab when I get home.
Hey thanks six. I've been following it in the market looks like they fixed a few of the sound problems and other things....I might just jump on it too, this weekend. But ill wait for u haha.
Can you please let me know if it supports any other input methods,like wii mote. I would think it would be a ***** to play with the on screen keyboard.
The program is great!!!
The only issue I have is that the framerate is way to fast (didn't expect that), so the game play (at least for mario 64) is like mario on crack. I hope I can figure out a way to slow the framerate.
It does support the wiimote!

Sorry guys! Yes it's awesome!!! Especially on the G-tab, my 2 yr old and I have been playing Mario 64 and Mario Cart 64 like crazy! Well worth the money! Great in combo with "rom gripper ++"! It does run a bit fast on some games, but I am very pleased with this considering I bought all the *oid emulation apps for me and the kids, well mainly me. The on screen controller took a bit getting used to but wasn't so bad after a while. Yep wii remote will work.
any idea if a xbox wired controller works???

I doubt that would work. But the wiimote works. Too bad two player games can't be played on one screen, at least not that I know of.
I can't find it. . . I search n64oid and it doesn't come up. . .
Super Mario 64 ,Mario mart, and pokemon stadium 2 no issues.
Starfox sound goes away during gameplay but the game plays great besides that.
Pokemon stadium intro plays but that's it. Excite bike 64 is a no go. That's all I tested.
Not bad for an early release.
Hell yes! Was actually trolling online recently for an n64. Mine got stollen my Meth heads a few years back and I miss it and my perfect collection of classics. If I can play Tetrisphere and conkers bad fur day with the wii mote I will be in heaven, and be able to keep a little more cash in my pocket. Those systems can be expensive now. Apparently all the stoners up here in the Northwest have a death grip on their n64s and wont give them up for cheap.

I still have my n64 somewhere in a box. I never did get rid of it and I wouldn't either. Maybe those stoners aren't that stoned after all.
I have been using an N64 emu on PC & laptop for quite a few years now and have at least "a few" roms. Result is I have roms that are verified to work.
Seems not many games work well with this emu yet, but some that do:
Super Mario
Bust a Move 99 / 3DX, 2
Diddy Kong Racing
Mario Kart
That is about it so far that I tested. All others tried either play slower, strobe off and on or backgrounds go black. If you like the games above, the app is good right now.
I have tried several dozen roms so far and the ones above are the best.
BTW, The games play half the speed on Incredible, so even slower.
This seems a beta release and $7 is a bit steep.
Update:
Sadly, the dev is following the same trend as with his PSX emu and each update makes the app WORSE.
Some games that worked do not now and games are a lot slower with the update from today. A lot now crash before even playing. BAD update.
I only wish there was a free version so I could test it out.
Anyone knows if it would run well overclocked at 768 MHz?

Yikes. This is exactly why I'm not so sure about paying $7 on something that might not even run on my Ally. And the 15 minute refund window probably isn't enough time to judge, either.
Works pretty good for me so far, tried Mario 64, Zelda Ocarina, and Goldeneye, all worked at normal speed with good sound. Donkey Kong 64 starts but controls won't work, assuming a bad ROM.
As I type, my Son is playing Mario 64 with the latest update. No issues whats so ever. Thanks for the heads up guys!!!!
THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!! (well this and full version of firefox) It seems to run great on my gtab, super mario 64 is so fast its funny, on the other hand Golden eye 007 runs at just about the right speed.
Just checked the description. G-sensor as analog. I might try this.

Mario 64 runs fine on my gtab but I can't get golden eye to run lol. Wanna trade??? Jk
The newest version of the app is slower, compared to the previous version, so not sure what version you folks are using. Same trend as with his PSX efforts.
Trust me, in the previous versions performed much better. it seems he got rid of the auto frame-skip and the current frames skip method does a bad job.
You really notice it on the Snapdragon (Incredible). Slower version.
Update:
I see what he has done now with the newest update. He has adjusted compatibility to be better for some games, but the net impact is slower performance. Hope he finds a balance

I think I'll look back on today's video games and feel...

very little.
I was making some wallpapers from some pics that caught my eye and a lot of them happened to be from classic video games: Mario, Zelda, etc. I just got to thinking that while a lot of today's games are widely-played, they just don't have that lasting value that the games of the past had, the games that appealed to everyone.
I know there are a few like Little Big Planet and what-not that still do something for everyone, but it's titles like Dead Space and Mass Effect are what move units now. In the "What are you playing thread" Skyrim and BF3 are tops. Halo inspired some cool things like Red vs Blue, but are any of us going to look back a in years to come and really feel like any of today's games are anything more than hours of well-designed time killing? Even one of my favorites in Ninja Gaiden Sigma makes me wonder if I'll see it as great down the road. I don't think Ocarina of Time will ever be a let down, or Mario Kart, or the old Metroid games.
I know this is a little disjointed but I just wanted to get it out. What do you guys think?
I see a field of fps & mmorpg. Not any that draw you into them. None like the classics. You're right.

Bugaboo the flea really did it for me too. I lost many nights' sleep over that game.
Also, pretty much anything by Ultimate - Jet Pac, Trans Am, Cookie etc.. They were all classics.
Most games today get played till completed then put back in the box until they're sold a year later. I do revisit portal and the most recent Assassin's Creed that I have at the time. Some modern games still have plenty of staying power, but I don't know if they'll be remembered in 30 years.
Yeah...definitely true OP. It seems as technology gets better, we only get better with eye candy (with some exceptions of course) But now a days kids think a game is good because it looks good.
I mean, i get it. I get caught in the whole graphics as well, but the content needs to be there also.
That or maybe i'm just getting older and thinking back on simpler times just seems like it's more fun.

Precisely, I don't like playing online with a bunch of people, just give me a good game I play at my leisure and have fun.
Excitebike, R.C. Pro Am, Maniac Mansion. So simple yet they felt worth the time.
Contra III, Golden Eye, the good old days.
The best games are always going to be the ones you played when you were around 10.
Twenty years from now there will be a holographic thread about how awesome Cut the Rope was, and BF25 is nothing in comparison.
It's not age, it's content. Maybe the whole thing with the games that feel that way is that they "take you somewhere else." It's fun to play BF3, but when you play Mario 64, or the Final Fantasy series they are their own experiences. Maybe it's just that I feel like I get enough death and mayhem on the news and I feel better when playing games that are just games, nothing too heavy.

I do have to say I think I will always remember the Metal Gear Solid series favorably.
missing the "epicness" in today`s games. baldur´s gate 1 & 2 for example was sooo awesome. with more than 120hrs of epic rpg experience (if u fance the genre of course), proper characters and brilliant dialogue wrapped in beautiful visual art. imho there are but a few games on the market nowadays to rival games from the 90´s, such as bg1&2, where more quality games have been produced.
just my 2 cents

Favourite games console

It can be as old as the atari to as new as the PlayStation. It can be Portable or Home console!
A high end gaming desktop pc is the ultimate gaming machine hands down. They're also much more flexible and practical than any gaming console.
I used to love Atari tho
Yeah ME to i'm on steam. I forgot to really mention pc tbh i should of really put gaming SYSTEM XD
I love the hell out of my new 3dsxl since it can play every 3ds, ds, and homebrew emulators on the go.

Who needs console when you have PC
PCMR always :good:
I've been gaming for a long time. So I really dont' have a favorite game console. I have:
playstaion2/3/4/psp
xbox/360/1
Gamecube/wii
PC
For each major console, I mostly the big flagship titles. For Sony: God of war, Metal Gear, Grand Theft Auto, street fighter 5
For xbox: Halo Master Chief Collection and halo 5, Gears of war
For Wii: Smash Brothers Brawl
PC, I don't really play that much anymore. I used to play a lot of FPS 10 years ago: Counter Strike Source, Half life 2, Far Cry, Rainbow 6 Vegas and Watchdogs.
But If I had to pick one console that I play the most on, honestly it will have to be XBOX 1. I put in A TON of hours of halo multiplayer. A close second place would be my ps4. Cause I also put in A TON of hours in MGS 5 Phantom pain.
I don't really like the PC solution. You have to upgrade the GPU over time, and drivers constantly (DOOM players anyone?).
Plus you can't just sit on your couch and game on your TV, I know you can do bluetooth controllers and HDMI out etc, but it's still a big pain.
I've got an X1 and Wii U, and honestly I think the Wii U is the best thing ever. you cannot get the Zelda games, Smash Bros, Splatoon, Mario games, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, etc. on any other console or PC.
No matter what I think console will always be better than PC because you don't have to mess with drivers and settings, and its simplicity.
That sounds cool!

My all time favourite is Nintendo. It was the only console I was playing when I was a kid.
Nintendo Wii... I can play NES, SNES, CUBE, MAME, PSONE, SEGA Games & more on my modified Wii. I can also play music & watch dvds. Its also acts as my server. Amazing Console ?

PC all the time!
There are so many great gaming consoles, for the nostalgia tho I'd say, it's the Super Nintendo followed by Dreamcast and GameCube.
Otherwise of course, PCs (desktops, no fancy laptops) beat anything.
SEGA MegaDrive / Genesis & PSX

I am a nintendo guy and always loved nintendo consoles. For everything else a PC
I'm playing mostly on PC and some games on PS4.
Nintendo fanboy, all the way back to the NES.
It's a close race between the SNES and the PS1, and I have no clue which one comes out on top.
PCMR bruhhh :good:
Fav game MW2 for sure
PC of course but sometimes PS4 for the exclusive
