I can confirm, it plays SUPER well with mouse and keyboard. Granted, the framerate is all over the goddamn place, but it's definitely playable. You can rebind the keys too, and adjust mouse sensitivity if I remember correctly...

CorndogOnaStick Shitty PC? Keep in mind, the ps2 port was made not long after the original release. Getting the game up and running on a conventional family PC from the late 90s might’ve been a tad too much for most hardware.

Ah, I totally forgot to include the bit about saving. Yes, the quick save is fantastic and saving to memory card works well too...but the DC version is terrible for saving. The save file grows as you progress through the level eventually exceeding the size of a VMU. It resets with each new main level. There is at least a password system, though.

Quake II music started blaring out of my laptop's speakers.

I do have a strong suspicion that the Dreamcast game would load a lot faster if it was a final game on GD-ROM, also I suppose you could cheat and use an SD card (some people made an adapter) I think the pirated SOF (on CD) used to have a lot worse load times than the GD-ROM SOF; in any case the PS2 version clearly also has better framerate, which could also be improved on the DC for a final release, but I wouldn't expect it to be better... regarding the PC; the current Half Life on steam seems to run with forced AA and AF, it lacks support for Direct3D and software mode like the original CD had, also the audio is lower quality than the CD release (low bitrate MP3), I remember once testing half life with a Pentium 133 in software mode, and it was surprisingly playable (like at least 10FPS), but it looked... interesting at 320x200 or whatever the res was, but this was just a quick run on starting levels, when I tested Hl1 on my Pentium II 400 in OGL and GLide mode (with a voodoo 2 and also voodoo 4 4500) it sill had significant slowdowns on big areas (limited a lot ore by the CPU side) to bellow 30 (but a lot faster than the Dreamcast footage here)

@ToothpickMan11 3 жыл бұрын

The Dreamcast version has significantly shorter load times with a GDEMU, while I wouldn't recommend getting one just for that it does make it more playable.

Dream cast is kinda hit or miss with CD media. Some burns run and load well and others don't.

@megakarlachofficial Жыл бұрын

actually, the Steam version of the soundtrack are higher quality (with some of them exceed 200kbps bitrate) than original Retail (WON) release, this wasn't the case before around 2013 (SteamPipe), which most of the audio sounds very low quality on the pre-SteamPipe version. And for the D3D Renderer (and EAX/A3D Audio), they existed before SteamPipe also killed it.

Sure they do, but each Model 2 arcade board also cost about $15,000 in 1993 money. Jurassic Park also came out in 93 and stands as an example of the bleeding edge for the time. Getting the graphics was one thing, making them affordable for mass production and home use was another all together. The benefit for Sega, being *so* far ahead of their time, was that those arcade machines not only stunned people initially, but were good enough to provide a definitive experience for many years, completely outclassing the entire 5th gen console cycle.

The PC had the best joysticks too, analog control was awesome (Amigas and older machines had digital sticks) and each button could be assigned a different function not like on other computers where all 10 buttons would be the same (sic!).

@dark1x 8 жыл бұрын

I'm talking purely from nostalgia there (just a fun anecdote). I built my first PC with an AMD K6 233 and was crushed by how much faster my buddies machine was running Quake engine games using a Pentium 200mmx. Both of us had Voodoo 1 cards at the time. Some of the later Athlon CPUs were really damn good, though.

@Pan_Z 8 жыл бұрын

John Linneman Should probably repharse that. AMD and Intel kept trading for fastest CPU as each new CPU generation released. AMD would release their new CPUs, they would be fast. Intel would release their CPUs a few months later, and they would be faster. When the Athlon 64 hit, AMD was clearly faster. Intel could only manage a paperweight launch and had to bribe PC manufacturers not to use AMD CPUs.

Hey man, I love your channel! Liked and subbed. Would you mind telling me what kind of mic you're using? It sounds so clear and crisp. Thank you so much! Keep up the excellent job!
