I love Don Doko Don, will read with morning coffee!
Youβre far too kind as always! π₯°π₯°
Yeah, was a game designer on it. Good times! π
Class!! ππ
We're back, and we couldn't have marked our return with a more Exciting group of games. The Revo era begins now!
Letβs gooooo! Had a lot of fun recording this one! π
Before New Year, I ditched the Apple Watch after 10 years, and gone back to wearing actual watches again which I absolutely love. Also turned off all but essential phone notifications. Feel freer already! ππ
Nah, I just put my original cart in the pic for the sake of comparison. The real carts sadly donβt fit in the back of the Lego GB - Itβs a smidge too narrow. You can buy kits that can convert it to play real carts though!
I think the On/Off switch is my favourite touch; how it clicks feels so authentic! π
Might be my favourite Lego set ever! Super detailed and really fun to build π
How cool is that logo!? Seeing Acclaim brings back memories too!
I did love those GCs in Resident Evil though, thought they looked cool with the modified top and LCD panel :)
Go to newsagent with your mum or dad, look over the Β£2.99 games on cassette whilst they pick a newspaper. Take your pocket money that's saved from 50p a week, buy a game for your Amstrad CPC6128 with cassette player connected via audio cables, get home and load it up whilst eating a Twix bar. Bliss
was AMAZING (but no textures, 30fps), to Ridge Racer with texture mapping, 60fps display, it was remarkable. That's my thoughts though as someone who adores RR greatly in all forms and almost all games.
At the time though, in 1993, RR was truly revolutionary in the arcades. It moved EVERYTHING on significantly at one time; 3D performance, textures, lighting, track design, analogue controls, AI, music, feel. Everything. We went from games like Drivers Eyes, which was fine, and Virtua Racing, which
handling, entering drift, regaining traction and so forth. It's hard to play now, feels harder than ever after the years of progression and evolution in the RR handling model. However, playing the RR1 arcade port on Arcade Archives on PS5, Switch 2, is a true delight and much more playable.
It looked better, had further draw distance, and smoother framerate than Daytona, but it was the SEGA game that felt closer in terms of handling on the digital inputs of either d-pad. I think RR1 is really tough to go back to now on PS1, even as a super fan. It's very aggressively snappy in terms of
...the Arcade Archives release of the original arcade game.- the first time RR arcade has been available on console. That game plays very differently to the PS1 game. The PlayStation port was a huge technical feat in 1994 that was a truly mind blowing experience. Compared to Saturn Daytona USA
Hey! I think the thing to ask is are you playing the PlayStation port? This was such an interesting game at the time because it gave you the arcade experience in the home.. Sort of. I loved this game on PS1, I played an absolute load of it there, and arcade, and more recently...
Shooter time! Class game!! ππ

OMG I love this idea! Spread the love!β€οΈ
Who doesnβt want to play Tetris with famous structures in the background and a choice music selection?
Oh thatβs cool, thanks for sharing! Maybe if I can get past Course 2, I will see some more of those characters you mention! :)
Yeah thatβs pretty much it, A and B choice. One had higher speed when using βJetsβ (boost). The other falls off corners easier π
Yeah I can P2 ok, on a good run like you say. I forgot Podium finish isnβt enough, only victory! ππ
