Mr X...from Streets of Rage? 🤔

I think he could do it definitely.

In before:

"as a gaming history enthusiast from even before I started working in the project!"
"I'm going to be charitable and assume that you're simply not familiar with the following!"
"Speaking as a 43 year old dude who works in retro gaming!"

@Quick_Man If you want to be pedantic the responses by the one individual offering what happened. 😆

@WaveBoy I think there's probably very few games that ran at 60fps.

@WaveBoy I agree because as soon as you start force raising the frame rate it's possible to break the game.

Oh cool, I'll have to try this.

The hit reaction was spot on and included blood. In EA Bond games you'd shoot someone and bullets hit enemies without any noticeable feedback.

@WaveBoy We'll see with the modRetro M64.

Rest in peace.

The responses to Voulter are interesting.

Wow this is... a couple of chairs. 🤔

@CopyX1982 Absolutely agree! Focusing just on one thing however becomes a form of activism whether it's modRetro or AI. I also don't approve of TE censoring users in the comments.

Since my comment was deleted here's a more censorship enabled version for Time Extension:

Here we go again into the comments filled with people who don't know what they're talking about...although at least it's not an attack article it's still an activist article as shown by a certain users in the comments worried about people using AI in gaming.

"As for all the AI bros seething on our socials, we're simply blocking you,"

Yeah that will show them... 😂

People in the comments quoting others about liking AI while censoring or banning people is kind of hilarious, the type who blocks people on Discord for not liking the 2012 Tomb Raider game? The guy who believes in censorship of opinions? You're one to talk!

@Slider2711 Oh yeah of course. From one slider to another, thanks.

@djslope Not sure. You'd know before me. 👍

Wait a second...how did Atari get the rights to this? 🤔

The idea of putting the equipment on the wall is...unique but very strange and possibly creates pressure issues with cartridges. Also, Martin really seems to like Ferrari Challenge for some reason. I still need to buy that game. 🤔

@Captain_Retro It's being posted as entertainment for clicks but I completely agree with you.

@breach187 Maybe Slope will get taken for a ride again, whoooaaa! 😂

@carlos82 Amico had promise.

Did we lose a wealth of info other than people arguing with each other in flame wars? Maybe. I know what it's like to lose a lot of contributions although for slightly different reasons.

@AtomB What about Wayback Machine?

@somnambulance This I'm sure will be a new way going forward every time there's an AI attack article posted.

Doesn't SNES have an equivalent for the Retrode? That's what I use for my MD games.

Piko Interactive...be very afraid.

@Exerion76 Trust me, Evercade will still lap this up. 😂

@heligo Well are we waiting for Nintendo to do it?

A clone of Rampage is pretty rare so that's cool.

Star Trek: The Next Generation - A Final Unity.

The higher the specs the better the compatibility, the higher the cost. That's how these clones tend to work.

@somnambulance It feels too much like a witch hunt and I hate that type of behaviour.

@Damo "energy demands and environmental impact have become an issue."

If you want to take down AI generation be my guest however the genie is out of the bottle, it's not going back in. What we can do is regulation so we're not abusing it. THAT I do support.

"I'm not sure you even understand what you're saying, or if you know enough about how generative AI works."

Pretty sure I do. Content farming and correlating is no different to AI taking from different sources. It's also been said before here that tracing art is pretty much the same as AI copying it. Again, what we can do is regulate where AI is taking inspiration from to make sure original creators aren't having work stolen.

@Right_Said_Brett But you don't understand what talent is. Your high horse is a mountain of jumped up ignorance. 😆

@AzzurraIrisLeaMonde My point is most people in the world ruin it somehow. We can mitigate the damage through our actions but saying AI damages the environment is like saying using petrol for machinery is bad for us. It's useful depending how we use it.

"I don't have a server."

Also, using your accounts online is using a server. It's not your server sure, but you still use it.

@Unbolted The genie is out of the bottle. Regulation is our only hope. Trying to shut it out won't do anything. If Damien can launch a scale war on generative AI and remove it from the Internet I'd also be fine with that.

@Unbolted There's a lot of great uses for AI as long as it doesn't steal. My issue is the knee jerk reaction and doom mongering about it in the form of attack articles.

I show how clever AI is in remastering old shows if handled correctly and people go crazy because it's AI. It's not only moronic, it's not helpful in finding a better solution. 🙄

Okay so what did he say that was wrong? 🤔

@MARl0 Your responses amount to "I like how the AI bros are here defending..." At least they put some intelligence into their responses and aren't parroting.

@TV4Fun Great response. I'm reminded of Tron missing out on an Oscar because the Academy thought using CGI was cheating. That's this article all over again. 😂

@Dustybin1 I liken these articles to bullying at this point. I think a lot of people here are sick of them. I feel like I'm losing my will to live with these bullying attack articles.

@AzzurraIrisLeaMonde So is toxic fumes from cars, so is smoking, so is using servers to run data.

Important questions do need asking such as whether people should buy it and whether TE should be covering Mod Retro's products. Let's have some consistency. 👍

Great article. It's amazing from Metal Slug they made so many sequels and they all played the same. It's one of the few video game IPs to have a consistent look through its many sequels.

For the love of God someone give Sally Shining Force to play. 🙄

I'm actually holding out for Commodore to get the Amiga rights back. 🤔

A complete collection of the games would be great so let's see what happens.

Yeah, makes sense to use a Japanese team to rewrite an English script for an English audience... 🤦‍♂️

A Saturn version is awesome news, a shame it's expensive.

Steam release when?

@-wc- I love the Ricochet games. I wish those got a re-release.

@-wc- It coincided with the decline, not solely because of the lack of women on covers. The magazines in general started to become boring.

@-wc- I remember PC Format used to have a female on their cover until around 2005. I think it's after we saw the decline of the magazine until it was cancelled.

@Quick_Man In another universe sure.

@Quick_Man But you cannot ignore the fact that things have changed and society has got more woke.

@-wc- "we "lost" it because roughly 50% of the gaming population is female, where it was a sweaty, undersexed boys club in the 1990s."

I mean that isn't fair. That stereotypes gamers in the 90's while ignores the fact there were women back then who played video games.

@Sketcz The cat is out of the bag. Casual gamers will most likely fall for this and think it's real. But then...they probably think there was a gaming crash in 1983 worldwide. Again this is to promote nostalgia and the link which Damien deleted is a comparison of what gaming magazines would be like now compared to back then in extremes.

@Exerion76 There were a few video game covers and ads that got people into trouble even back then.

@Quick_Man That's not drivel, that's fact. So what's your point?

@-wc- These woke people I see online are beyond pathetic. See how it works? What a weird take and stereotyping of 90's gamers.🤔

@Damo Of course there's going to be people who think those are real but if we're talking about ignorance there's also people who are unaware the Master System exists so those are the kinds of people who are going to think those AI ads are real. 🤷‍♂️

@Damo I thought they were pretty funny. A great comparison to what we get now. But yeah they are to promote nostalgia, that's obviously clear.
