That's another thing, why do people hate on the 3D0? EVERY SINGLE GAME IN THAT ENTIRE LIBRARY IS A f*ckING GEM. A f*ckING GEM!

I used to have it, I wanted to like it, but, just couldn't get into it.  I think the main thing graphically that puts me off is the main character, it just looks like some western made 3DO game with him, like that Vituoso game http://fz1-3do.blog.co.uk/?tag=virtuoso


Oh no... not Virtuoso.. oh.. the agony.  :-&

I love the 3DO personally, but, there are alot of games I don't like, Virtuoso being one of those.

People hate on the 3DO because it was expensive back in the day.. unobtainable to the average person.  And the library sucked balls.  The games
that were worth playing on the 3DO could be found on other systems... and always played better.

Personally I do like the 3DO.  Especially since it's cheap now.  :lol:

Yeah, I waited until the day when Best Buy had the FZ10 for I think $90, & then most games were between $2-$10.  And games that weren't there before, came in, probably shipped over from other Best Buys!  Though, I do remember the day, that I saw a label for Lucienne's Quest I think it was for $2, but, somebody had already bought the game dammit!  Oh well, I have 2 copies now, but, it would've been nice to buy it brand new!

Holy crap, thanks for posting this game (Virtual Hydlide)! I think this might be a game that I've been trying to find since I renting it back in the day!

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I actually beat it, it wasn't that bad and it's really short.  The frame rate and goofy looking main character were the only things that bugged me, but I can stand bad frame rates if I'm having fun, plus the FMV sequences are so awful they're worth seeing.  I don't know about playing it now though, I wouldn't have the patience probably unless I was really in a retro mood.  Keep in mind there are some mildly cool parts later in the game with a huge crystal castle, its not all ugly green landscapes and caves.

And for the record, the King's Field series is f*cking awesome.

As for Virtual Hydlide... I've never had a chance to play it.
