Posted August 6, 2014 For some old games, the difference between 50Hz and 60Hz is actually much bigger than 30fps and 60fps. Sonic the Hedgehog is one example. The original on the Mega Drive now feels like slow motion due to playing ports based on the NTSC version. Yeah, I get that there's a difference it's just that it doesn't bother me. I mean I grew up playing all the 50hz PAL stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 17, 2014 Am I being thick or is this coming to the PS4 too? Yeah, it's due early next year. It's digital only though, ( only the PS3 version got a disc release and only in Japan ) although rumours have started up about a PS4 retail release over here. I wanted it early and the retail release, so I just imported it from Japan. The whole game is in English anyway. You can even reverse the cover of the game so it says Resident Evil.

Posted December 18, 2014 I finished the Saturn and playstation originals in under 3 hours. I think my best was 2 hours 46 minutes, you uses to unlock a rocket launcher with infinite ammo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 18, 2014 I finished the Saturn and playstation originals in under 3 hours. I think my best was 2 hours 46 minutes, you uses to unlock a rocket launcher with infinite ammo Yeah, I remember pulling that off in the original. I don't think I did it on the Cube version though. Either way, it's been ages since I've played it and will probably require a few runs to get used to where everything is again. Resident Evil 2 is another matter. I know that game off by heart.

Posted December 18, 2014 I never got on with resi 2... I know I'm in the minority but at the time I was disappointed! I....I'm shocked. It had 4 campaigns, great intertwined story and scenarios, fantastic setting and characters and to top it off you had Mr. X chasing you through the game! You and I are gonna have a talk the next time we are on Fifa! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I loved CV on the Dreamcast but this was surpassed with the release of the CV:X edition. Those extra scenes with Wesker were amazing. It also has one of my favourite openings to a game. The scenes with Chris climb the face of the mountain, Wesker vs Alexia and Steve jumping through the window while firing are great. Love them to bits. I never found CV scary. I think it was more creepy than anything. The disturbing relationship between the twins, the obsession with his sister and that family video where they pull the wings off the insect. Yeah, pretty creepy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 24, 2014 Played through this a couple of times today. First run through was on easy with Jill, just to get a feel for the game again. I managed to finish it in 4 hours 50 mins. Feeling more confident I fired it straight back up on normal and beat it in 2 hours 49 mins. This nabbed me my trophy as well as the rocket launcher with infinite ammo and the Samurai Edge gun. My next playthrough is going to be awesome. As for the game itself, I think it looks and plays great. Playing without tank controls makes everything a lot smoother, although they do seem to fail a bit here and there when the camera shifts. Also, did Jills rack always bounce or is this feature exclusive to this version? Absolutely fantastic game and will probably do another playthrough tomorrow. I need to do invisible mode, real survivor mode and finish the game without saving once! Fear can't kill you. But..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 24, 2014 This post pleases me. Me and @Mike1988uk were discussing the remake of this the other day and the pair of us can't wait til it comes out next month. It's one of my favourite ever games and brings back loads of memories from when I was younger. I never did finish it in under 4 hours, Mike did though. Definitely gonna go for it though!! The upgrade in visuals look nice enough, not that I needed any excuse to buy it again. They could have just done a shit port of the ps1 version and I still would buy it. Roll on UK release! Is it getting a box release over here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 24, 2014 I was always awful at Resident Evil games, (except the second one which I actually finished). I'll probably get this but I doubt I'll ever get all the way through! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
