Tanooki Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I grabbed CoD WW2 for $19.50~ and I also saw that Star Trek Bridge Crew was like 70% off (7.50) which is the cheapest or near so rate over on Humble Bundle, and sometime a year or so back they patched it to play without VR goggles. It's a bit deep I"m still trying to get comfortable with the controls but it's stunning. Also the cheese low quality model HD port of Dementium II HD from the DS original is all of $2 (instead of $10 or 15 I forget which) up on Steam at the moment. It gets panned by those upset about the visuals and things, but it's a DS port of all things, and $2 is far better than paying $40-45 for a beat up loose cartridge.

cimerians Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 99% sure the original never came out on PC thru GOG other than CD in the 90s. Someone modified it to make it playable ages ago but I could never get it to work always settled on the PS1 emulation ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been able to find it on PC, but am aware of the original release on CD. Until recently, I had never played this game, but it was one of the first ones that I went for when I got a modded PS Classic. Its nice - probably an 8 out of 10 for the era. You can definitely see the similarity to something like Zelda. However, there was a lot of time spent in the menus and on the map; travelling between locations for no good reason. The game could have been streamlined quite a bit to get you actually PLAYING it which would help a 2020 gamer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you like it on PS, you should definitely check it out on PC if you ever get the chance. I don't remember the specifics, but I got it on PS back in 97 or so (when it was the new and shiny thing to have) and didn't like it much. But... I played the PC version around that same time and absolutely loved it! I've gone back to the PS version a few times recently, and it just feels off. If I can figure out a convenient way to play my PC version again, I'd like to see if I still have that love for it, or if my memory has twisted it around a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's the worst part of the game specially if you play it today, you almost have to draw a map or never stop playing the game otherwise you'll never know/remember where you've been or where you need to go. i did beat it back in the day on PS1 and it's definitely a cool game I've always preferred this one over the 3D ones they came out with later.

Punisher5.0 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I finally got into Epic and claimed GTA even though I have it on Steam. Control is really tempting at $20 with the $10 coupon. I might have to bite on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
