PC question:Is there anyway for me to do this?
xDragonWarrior replied to xDragonWarrior's topic in Modern Console Discussion
It is a nice website but most importantly it does not have Doom or any other of the classic games I would like to play,it mostly has newer games and it's an online website(I want to play the games as quick as possible and not have to go to a website to play them).Thanks anyway. -
It is - statistically - practically impossible that anyone alive today has **no** incestuous ancestry. To put that another way: every single human has ancestors who were the children of incestuous parents...probably lots and lots and lots of ancestors who were the children of incestuous parents

So I wanna play classic games on my PC because they are very fun to play(Doom,Quake,Castle Wolfenstein,Age Of Empires,Carmen Sandiego,The Amazon Trail etc) but it isn't as efficient as a console.With a console you just turn on a play while with a PC you gotta turn it on, find the game load the game etc and no operating system IMO looks good and works for just playing games(for everything else its fine but for games it's not).looking for your downloaded games on Windows 7 or XP is kinda bland while looking for your downloaded games on the Wii/Wiiu/PS3/PS4/Xbox 360/Xbox 1 feels and looks better as it's user interface fits gaming perfectly IMO.So i am asking you guys, is there any program that has a console like user interface and boots up automatically when I turn the computer on comes up(Like how Mame cabinets boot up Mame) so I can get the ease of gaming just like consoles.The On Live console has the perfect user interface that would fit me but it does not have classic games.If there is no solution I guess I will go the regular way.

DISCLAIMER:I am not doing this now, i will only attempt this when and if i win the lottery So In the future If I win the lottery and win around 3-4 million(doubt it but one can wish can't he) I would try to accomplish this goal and make a museum out of it for preservation sake and so people can read about where Video games came from(also a slight case of bragging will be in there but very slight ).How much would all of this cost.I'm talking about EVERY videogame console and handheld boxed with EVERY color,box set(like the Nes box sets) regional console(Famicom,Mega Drive,Nintendo Iqque etc)with a complete WORLDWIDE collection boxed and/or complete(except for the modern systems as I have no intrest for collecting them) unless it never came boxed/complete(like Nintendo World Championships or Nintendo Campus Challenge).I'd say around 25-30K for all the boxed handhelds and systems(this adds up as systems like the AdventureVision,Famicom Titler,RDI Halcyon,are all 1K and over systems) and the games I'd say, 300K, 500K being the max(Nintendo World Championships,Nintendo Campus Challenge,and Air Raid already brings the total to around 90-100K).So how much would you say all of this would cost?.

The original Playstation is like aids, nobody wants them but we get them anyway
-
According to "The Week" magazine the original PS1 is highly regarded as a top quality CD player. It must be true, I read it in a magazine.
-
All the PS1's deserve modchips. With PS2 discontinued it is best to play PS1 games on PS1 to prolong the ability to play PS2 games on PS2's.

So we've all heard of the " worst consoles of all time" and we all know the usual suspects, the Virtual boy, Ngage, Atari 7800,CD-I, 32X, 3DO, Jaguar etc but are they really that bad?.I for one think that there not that bad as there are MUCH worse consoles than the consoles mentioned above for instance the Action Max, Bitcorp Gamate, Casio PV-1000, MegaDuck/CougarBoy,XaviXport etc. I think alot of these consoles are bashed because they have a flaw like the Virtual boy's red graphics or the 7800's controller and won't dig deep for the good games(they will play a few games which happens to be horrible and will immediately say that the console is shitty,one reviewer says this(the nerd and others) and fans will say this every time that said console/handheld comes up no matter if they have played the console or not.Now I will admit, some consoles/handhelds should stay on that list like the R-zone but alot of them have no reason to be on there. Philips CD-I The CD-I had some good gamesThe apprentice,Burn:cycle, Dragon's lair,Hotel Mario(yes this IMO is a good game), Kether,The lost ride,Mutant rampage,Thunder in paradise Tetris etc.Yes the majority of the CD-I's library kinda sucks but It should be noted that it has some decent games that you should check out and not all bad as most seem to think. Virtual Boy Out of the entire Virtual boy's library(3-D Tetris,Galactic pinball,golf,Jack Bros, Mario Clash, Mario Tennis,Nester's Funky Bowling,Panic Bomber, Space Squash, Teleroboxer,Virtual League Baseball,Red alarm,Vertical Force, Wario land, Insmouse no Yakata,SD Gundam dimension war,Space invaders,Virtual fishing,Virtual lab and Waterworld), only Waterworld is bad and Red alarm, Nester's funky bowling, Golf and Virtual league baseball are average). 3DO Another console I really hate when people put it on the list is the 3DO.I mean it had GREAT games like The definite version of Street fighter 2,The need for speed,D,Slayer,Shockwave 2,Soccer kid,The horde,Lucienne's quest,Gex,Killing time,Space Hulk,Road rash, Star control II so many to count. 32X out of the 40 games released for the 32X, over half of them are pretty good.I don't know why people say the 32X sucks when it has such good games.Sonic Chaotix,Virtual racing Virtua fighter, Star wars arcade,Shadow squadron,Metal head,BC racers,Cosmic Karnage, the best version of NBA Jam tournament edition,Kolibri,Zaxxon's motherbase 2000,Darxide,Tempo, the closest damn port of After Burner on a console etc. Anyway, do you feel that some of the consoles always mentioned are in no way one of the worst consoles of all time or they are right and they should be there?

The Official "Thrift finds" Thread
xDragonWarrior replied to Happy_Dude's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Good to see the 3DO get some love instead of the constant bashing.I for one cannot see why people call it one of the worst consoles of all time.It had some great games like The need for speed, Crash N Burn,the best version of Super Street Fighter 2, Gex, Lucienne's Quest, Killing Time etc. -
Anyone collect Tiger lcd games?
xDragonWarrior replied to Dripfree's topic in Classic Console Discussion
so this brings up the question,which is better, Tiger LCD games or the R-zone.I know there basically the same thing but still. -
This week on 1 game I have clocked In on 2100 minutes(give or take a few) which comes up to 5 hours a day.The game...Black Hole a pinball machine.I got it recently off Craigslist for a really cheap price and have hot been able to put it down since!(can you even use this expression when referencing a pinball machince as you never pick it up).It's beautiful from the side and playfied art to the spinning Black Hole playfield and robotic sounds."Do you dare enter the Black Hole?

So the NES did all these to save gaming?
xDragonWarrior replied to Jakandsig's topic in Classic Console Discussion
OK here is my proof again: Ultima II which came out in 1982 had Tile Based Graphics and all Intellivision games had Tile Based Graphics.See image below When the Nes came out there was STILL a Videogame market as there were sill consoles and PC games being produced . The Donkey Kong Game And Watch had a D-pad before the Nes. See image below Defender and many other games had scrolling before the Nes came along.See image below If this Is not enough proof to back up my claims then I don't know what Is. -

xDragonWarrior replied to Jakandsig's topic in Classic Console Discussion
Like I said also, the Donkey Kong Game and watch had a integrated D-pad before the Nes came out. -

xDragonWarrior replied to Jakandsig's topic in Classic Console Discussion
A lot of what people have stated so far, If you have played any games on a console before the Nes/Famicom you would know without needing facts(for instance games before the Famicom/Nes had no scrolling). for the Nes inventing the D-pad, the Donkey Kong Game and Watch and before that the Entex Select a game both had a D pad before the Nes . As for the Nes inventing side scrolling games,Defender(the first side scrolling shooter),Scramble,Haunted House, Jungle Hunt,Moon Patrol,Defender,Defender II/Stargate Chopper Command,Thrust,Vanguard,Marble Craze,Subterranea,,Mountain King,Jungle Hunt Road Runner Star Wars: TESB Barnstorming,Desert Falcon,Stampede, Pitfall, The Smurfs and others were side scrollers before the Nes came along.Also when the Famicom/Nes came out, there was still a Videogame market as the Casio PV-1000,7800, Vectrex, AdventureVision, Colecovision(etc) and the Sega SG-1000 (which coincidentally came out the same day as the Famicom) where already out and selling.There was still a videogame market, although it was very slim. Here are pics so you can SEE proof and not READ it. -
The Official "Thrift finds" Thread
xDragonWarrior replied to Happy_Dude's topic in Classic Console Discussion
So I'm going to be doing something different this time.Instead of posting what I've gotten recently, I'm going to wait until the end of the year to post what I have amassed so you can see everything in one post(and to go out with a Bang!).Now It's not going to be anything mind blowing(as I am 16 with no job and get my spending money from good grades) but It will be some good stuff no doubt.So far I have picked up over 64 games (over 8 consoles) and 6 consoles/handhelds since my last post some months ago and It's still growing.Stay tuned for my end of the year post. -
Left 4 Dead. At what age can your children play it?
xDragonWarrior replied to donssword's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Well as a 16 year old Teen myself It all depends on if they are mature enough to play it and if they will simulate the acts in real life.If they know that it's just a game then you should have no problem letting them play it but if they get influenced and simulate what they hear or see in Video games/movies/music then you might want to wait a little longer because you don't want your kids to rob or kill someone and say he was a "zombie" now do ya? -

Newer "retro gamers" and pre-NES titles
xDragonWarrior replied to Nateo's topic in Classic Console Discussion
I for one despite my age(16) will play on ANY console(except for the R-zone as I hate tiger LCD games) of any era whether new or old as I am not a graphic whore as some kids my age but I can see(although I do not agree) why some of the younger generation dismisses anything before the Nes. The SMS/Nes/TG-16/Genesis/SNES era was when Video games were not the same old repetitive(as they would call it) "get as many points as you can before you die" type of games like Asteroids, Berserk,Robotron,Pitfall,and Kaboom! and more deep involving more repayable and longer lasting games like Super Mario Bros, Sonic the hedgehog, Alex Kidd, Kid Chameleon etc.Sure you had those "repetitive"(again what they would call it) games on the SMS and up consoles but there are not as many as previous consoles You couldn't have a deep RPG like Dragon Warrior or a platform game like SMB on a console(PC's may be different) before the Nes. Dragonstomper and Pitfall are the closest RPG's and Platformers on the 2600 to DW and SMB. They are really good games(especially Dragonstomper for being a console RPG of that era) but to kids of this generation they are bland from graphics to game play. You would think that some of the younger generation would appreciate the games on the consoles before the Nes like the Colecovision, Intellivision, 2600, 5200, 7800 etc as they are basically the IOS and Android games we play on our phones(get as many points as you can before you die) except with older graphics but it's the complete opposite.
