Man, New Zealand Story was the shizzz back in the day. It was difficult but so fun.

What you just listed are not Playstation games, and he specifically asked about Spyro games, not alternatives.

Yup. It sucks big time. Gas prices have been high prior to the hurricane too.

No, all three games are PSX-only. You're talking about Spyro: Hero's Tail, which was destroyed by critics and gamers alike, or so I've read.

Not just pretty good, excellent. Uo Poko needs more recognition.

They're all excellent if you like those games. I can't recommend any of them over the others.

There is hardly anythingu nofficial about it since the official development has ceased. Just a custom build. Kode54's libresample and other PCM interpolation stuff are God's gift to VBA.

IIRC, that is quite a low-end card. The HP Pavillion computers sold here have GeForce 5500s and those aren't too good either.

The most prominent reason is the fact that the CPS3 boards boast an unbelivaly bitchy protections. Basically, if you tried to dump the roms on the board, the board would get fried. Than and the fact that arcade CPS3 games require a PBC board with the encryption routines and some additional game data + a disc that contains the game itself. The the board and the disc are put together, the machine stremas the data from the disc to the board, and the board decrypts it on the fly. (I'm not sure, if this is how it actually is done, but this is what I've heard and read anyway.)

He keeps getting work because movie studio executives are mostly the type of people that have never played modern video games (or video games in general) in their lives. They just see potential box-office hits in video game movies without any clue about the actual substance. It's basically "Video games seems to be more and more popular than ever before, so we must make a movie out of one".

Heh, I've seen that same GIF a few times before. Nice.

Neither am I, but it doesn't hurt to post rumors, now does it?

On the 4th os September an official release date for the Beta version fo PSPemu have been decided on which will be released without firmware. The official release date is currently 1st October 2005, a custom BIOS will be available as of the 3rd October. Credits go to LoRd_SnOw for giving me the heads up, EmuNext.net, Player-X. KanadA and hell hellmasterx.

To be quite honest with you, I don't know. It might work, but most likely it won't, at least until PCSX2 v0.9 (or whatever the version is) is out. If you do get it to work, it most likely runs at 5-10fps, depending on whether or not you have SSE2 enabled and working. The default PCSX2 graphics plugin runs everything in software, and the other plugin, which is faster, uses Direct3D + SSE2 exclusively.

While PS2 emulators (PCSX2 comes to mind) emulate many games quite well, they are far from being playable. I've said it a million times before and I'll say it again: Don't expect miracles from PS2 emulation. The PS2 is such a powerful system that it's impossible to run complex 3D games at full speed on today's computers. Same goes for the GameCube and the XBOX, and the reason is quite obvious to boot. Some games that are mostly 2D with little to no 3D elements have just become playable at full speed. (Disgaea comes to mind, or so I have been told).

To be precise, no Hyper Neo-Geo 64 game works yet. oh btw, topic moved.

You do have a point there, nVIDIA has the lead right now. I'm just waiting to see what happens when ATi gets their post-X800 lineup ready.

Then again, I've never experienced any of the problems you mentioned.

That's has to be the coolest thing so far, to see myslef post in portuguese. Wow. Excellent find. Rosa Fatal. LOL.

Soccer, football, whatever. Many Brits would disagree.

Yeah, SLI is pretty badass if you have another card.

'Better' is subjective, once again. Both cards are extremely good and I dare to say that there aren't too many differences at least on those high-end cards. The problem is that there are ATi fanboys and nVIDIA fanboys, that start to tell you why ATi cards suck and why nVIDIA cards rule....and vice versa. I can tell you this much that if you go with ATi, don't use it's official drivers, use 3rd party ones like Omega. I have an ATi Radeon myself, and I'm quite happy with it. I could say get ATi and forget nVIDIA, but that would make me sound like a fanboy, right?

And what do you call those "improvements". I could argue that the most improvements are either some minor tweaks to the gameplay itself, i.e. marginal, or graphical updates... and roster updates of course. Then again, what improvements could you possibly want from Winning 11 since the gameplay of it is near perfect anyway?

Don't tell me that you didn't know about NeoEncyclopedia, Robbbert. Any self-respecting Neo-Geo gamer would know about that site.

The only way to play Street Fighter III is to use Chankast and play the DC version. More specifically, Third Strike. MAME only has placeholders and some preliminary work for all the CPS-3 games. There are plenty of threads that explain the current situation about emulating CPS-3 games. Just search. End of discussion.
