Re: Ancient DOS Games Webshow

and you're stuck with 640x480 through emulation. Fairly certain I had the game rendering at 1280x960... In fact, here's a screenshot from my raw, unprocessed footage to prove it. Sprites and such are still limited by their actual resolution, but you can see from the 3D rendering that stuff in the …

Yeah, this is one of those games where you'd want to use an unofficial fork of DOSBox (like Yesterplay80's DOSBox ECE) to have an "easier" time emulating the Voodoo mode in this game, so that you don't need a external Glide wrapper in order to run this game. Even then, your game version has to be 1. …

If you ever get the chance, will you be able to review Super Street Fighter II Turbo for DOS? Because it's far superior to both SF2 and SSF2 for DOS. The only real issue the SSF2T port for DOS has is bigger sprites compared to the background graphics, and some missing frames of animation on some of …

I just thought the opinion would be more universally accepted which is why I wasn't afraid to go a bit off the rails with it. :B You'd be surprised. Some opinions that you'd think are universally accepted can sometimes be the exact opposite of that. I almost didn't and spent nearly a half hour …

Before he reposts Episode 211, I might as well point out what the controversial thing was about for those that didn't watch it the first time around: Early on in the review, one of the male characters in the game says something like this to a woman character in-game: "You're not bad.... for a girl, …

I did watch the video before you took it down. Quite honestly, out of all the things wrong with Pickle Wars, that so-called "misogyny" remark was one of the most pointless things to criticize about. Yes, it's a shitty joke that the guy made, but it only lasts for a moment and it apparently doesn't …

Funnily enough, the DOS port was my first experience playing Mega Man X back then. Same thing with Final Fantasy 7 (PC port instead of PSX version). I didn't try the SNES original, until some time later when I played it at a friend's house. I gotta say, I was quite amazed at the difference in speed, …

Never played Jill of the Jungle growing up, but when I was getting back into DOS gaming through DOSBox, I would see this game as one of those recommended, classic, DOS games. Played it for about a few minutes before just deleting it. I can understand why games like Commander Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, …

Wow.... You weren't joking when you said that YouTube fucked up the video compression completely. You didn't make any small mention of MOBA's like League of Legends or DOTA 2, and CRPG's like Baldur's Gate, Ultima, and others like that. Then again, MOBA's would fall into the Strategy genre, and …

It's been more than a decade since I've lasted played both Mega Man Legends games. I remember liking them at the time, although I don't really know if those two have aged well since then. Mind you, I'm still pissed off that Capcom cancelled the third Legends game. Also, you could walk into Roll …

No seriously, having multiple versions of DOSBox is pretty much REQUIRED. As a couple of my prior episodes have pointed out, sometimes newer versions end up breaking things with certain games. It's rare, but not impossible. Maybe I'm missing something, but why would you need multiple versions of …
