Re: Best Sega Game Gear Games

That is a nice looking game gear in the picture at the top always found it quite difficult to get hold of the games at the time the console was out so didn’t actually play many before I sold mine

Re: Best Neo Geo Pocket Color Games

Gs69

Really regret selling my Neo Geo pocket always found it difficult to get games the beat em ups that were on the system were surprisingly deep for a handheld console great little console and the d pad was outstanding I remember getting a ridiculous amount of time from the batteries

Re: Random: Hyperkin Wants To Make The Sega Dreamcast 2

Gs69

I’m not getting my hopes up for a Dreamcast 2 but I would like Hyperkin to get the nod from sega to produce a new Dreamcast based on the original with modern features such as ability to copy your disc games to sd card just to future proof my collection

Re: Poll: So, What's Your Favourite Controller Of All Time?

Gs69

I voted the Dreamcast arcade stick as I’ve had mine 22 years and it still works and feels amazing every time I use it (I did vote for it but it says 0% lol) as far as modern controllers go the elite series 2 is a thing of beauty and has a hefty feel to it my worst has to be Wii mote absolutely awful pain inducing kids toy the Wii u classic controller was amazing it’s battery was outstanding very easy to live with

Re: Poll: Which Old-School AV Connection Is Your Favourite?

Gs69

I use rgb SCART for my PlayStation 1 and megadrive which still look’s amazing and vga for my Dreamcast I have tried the hdmi converters for those but I’m not keen on the look and the Dreamcast looks outstanding either on my tv or through a monitor

Re: CIBSunday: Castlevania: Symphony Of The Night (PlayStation / Saturn)

Gs69

I absolutely adore this game still have it on my ps vita via ps1 emulation but back when this was released it was sitting there near the till in Game which at the time I think it was branded as electronics boutique for £14.99 brand new being a poor student at the time I didn’t buy I was buying some new release I just kick myself over and over again

Re: Sega Wants To Know What Mini Console You Want Next

Gs69

I would love a Saturn mini as I have a Dreamcast with plenty of games I just don’t see it being possible on the emulation side of things and all the best Saturn games never made it to the US or UK so we would just get the average kind of stuff we have all played a million times over

Re: CIBSunday: Cosmic Smash (Sega Dreamcast)

Gs69

Great game this always thought of it as a cross between Rez, Arkanoid and virtua tennis sounds crazy but it works and the super chilled out voice fits so well “have a blast” managed to get it at a reasonable price years ago and the packaging is completely different to other Dreamcast releases

Re: Building The Ultimate Sega Dreamcast

Gs69

A good quality hdmi conversion is what I want to get around to doing just to future proof my DC but to be honest I use vga through a Toshiba tv and it looks stunning also anyone wanting to do a PSU upgrade it’s worth spending that little extra and getting a decent one like the one shown above I bought one of the cheap ones of eBay and it gave a swirling effect on screen which becomes distracting it’s a shame cos the console ran really cool had to put the original PSU back and it can get quite hot at times

Re: Best Retro Gaming Systems - What's The Dream Option For You?

Gs69

I have my Dreamcast set up so I use that quite a lot also have SNES and MD mini I’m really getting into handhelds at the moment I have a retroflag gpi I love it cos it’s form factor is pretty close to the original gameboy but I’m saving for a steam deck can’t wait to get one

Re: Poll: What's The Best Ridge Racer?

Gs69

@Muriustar yeah outrun 2006 is great it’s a miracle they got it running on the psp I still play that as well but I use my vita nowadays think my disc drive gave up on psp

Re: Poll: What's The Best Ridge Racer?

Gs69

That’s a tough choice as I prefer the original to others where different gameplay elements got added the original is just a pure arcade racer but ridge racers 1 and 2 for psp are like a best of from everything that came before I went for the original as I still play it quite often and with a negcon it’s superb

Re: CIBSunday: Xeno Crisis (Japanese, Neo Geo AES)

Gs69

@Hikingguy it’s a great game pretty bare bones when it comes to options but it’s like a modern day version of smash tv an unrelated game that I love at the moment is Andro Dunos 2 same principle to gameplay but really well made can’t recommend it enough

Re: CIBSunday: Xeno Crisis (Japanese, Neo Geo AES)

Gs69

I bought this on switch in the sale and really enjoyed it so ended up buying it for Dreamcast noticed the silly prices on eBay which is just odd cos you can go on bitmap bureau shop and get it great game that seems tough at first becomes much easier with repeated play

Re: Best Genesis / Mega Drive Games

Gs69

Gunstar heroes is still an amazing game even now, I would say Hellfire is one of the megadrives best certainly better than zero wing I think it only gets attention cos of its hilarious intro and I have always preferred Thunderforce 3 to 4 yes 4 is impressive but it’s insanely difficult and what about super fantasy zone I think it gets forgotten about cos it wasn’t released in the US but it’s a fantastic game

Re: CIBSunday: Ridge Racer (PS1, Japanese)

Gs69

Love the original ridge racer and I would definitely buy a remastered version but with the same controls and physics managed to get myself a negcon in lockdown got me interested in the game again now I have it mastered there is nothing else that controls like it still an amazing game just the graphics are looking really choppy but playability is still definitely there
