I had this on releas on my GameCube and really enjoyed it. Several years ago, I played through it again and it holds up really well. The combat gets a bit repetitive and the camera can sometimes get stuck in a strange position but apart from that, it was a lot of fun.

I’m interested to see how this turns out because they’re HD masters taken from the original broadcast tapes.

Therefore it will look better than DVD at least. I’ll await the reviews.

I can’t believe we thought that tank controls were good back then.

I’ve been searching to find out what happened and thanks to a couple of Reddit posts, I think I know what’s going on.

This line of buildable figures wasn’t that popular. Apparently figures of droids and masked characters sold the best but the general consensus was that figures with human faces just looks odd.

But despite Jyn Erso’s figure being officially retired in April 2018, even as late as last year, people are still finding boxed copies in stores. It just didn’t sell.

A lovely read for Saturday morning, thank you. I’m really surprised to learn that Cyberpunk is running sub HD on the Switch 2 and then being upscaled. Maybe I don’t really understand it properly but I guess the filters and technology hide the jank?

Click bait websites must love news stories like this.

“OMG!! Zelda movie delayed!!”

Then you read the article and tut because the truth is, they’ve pushed it back a few weeks. Hardly news.

Blimey, was all that Tom business a year ago now? Happy Birthday!

Speaking of Tom business, as mentioned elsewhere, anyone heard from Emperor? It seems he last posted about a month ago.

Apparently, Bond is only 26 in this story. He’s only just started out as a 00 or training to be one.

My first computer was a ZX81, but I think it was a custom build between my father, a carpenter, and my uncle, an electrician who fixed arcade games.

It was housed in a wooden case with a proper keyboard. The 16K RAM pack had been soldered on inside, so there was no case of it ever crashing due to a bad connection.

Simple black and white graphics with no sound. I loved it to bits.

I had Nightfire, I think it was called, for my GameCube. My favourite level was driving the Aston Martin Vanquish through the small towns in the Alps.

I wonder how it will differ from just being Hitman in a tuxedo? Will it follow the games of years gone by and feature driving sections? 😁

Nice idea… Never playing it. 😂 Playing it on television in the dark with headphones was bad enough!

Is it just me, or has Heroic Launcher broken some games with this update? Rebel Galaxy launches with a window to change graphics options. OK that and then the game starts.

After the HL update, I close the graphics options window and then the game launches in a black screen but all the sounds are going? This is on SteamDeck by the way. All my other games still play fine.

I like what the poster is trying to do, but my eyes instantly see three “photoshop” layers. Scarlett Johansson, the dinosaur and the waterfall background.

Yeah, I like the idea that RetroDeck is a single concise package that may not have the latest emulators but they are stable.

I’m also ordering an SD card because I just want to keep the ROMs separate from the main deck games.

Thank you for these posts, a friend shared a link and I’ve spent this Sunday morning browsing over the past few weeks of information. I really like the writing style, it’s enjoyable to read.

I’ve just ordered a SteamDeck myself and have more free games on Epic and GOG than my steam library (2 titles!). So it will take me a while to get up to speed onto how to get access to those libraries and get started in emulation.

When VCR’s first appeared, they were connected via the UHF connection. So you had to tune your TV to the VCR channel to watch anything.

I don’t remember any other connections until SCART came along. I was reading the Wiki and didn’t realise it was invented in France back in 1976. Essentially, SCART was the best connection you could have as it used RGB if available.

Well, that was a given really. I have high hopes for this!

I’m not a fan of these longer three minute trailers, but I couldn’t stop watching, this looks like fun. At least everything is out of context and I have no idea what’s going on!

Ah yes, the game that became Starfox adventures where he’s on foot the whole time. As the name implies, I was hoping for some space combat!
