Lately I hear lots of people complaining about hardware needed by demanding games and how xbox360/ps3 version should be preferred. This is NOT true. Let's take 3 scenario: 1: Low-end pc (low-end core2duo or worst), low-end vga: go with xbox/ps3 version 2: High-end pc, high-end vga: go with pc version, your hardware will keep v-sync'ed 60fps. And... finally number 3: mid end pc (core 2 quad, phenom2 x4, i3) and mid-end vga (650ti boost, 560ti or better). Probably looking at 35-40 fps benchmark you would get so depressed to choose console's version... well, you're wrong. Why? Lets' examine some facts: Resolution: you're looking at a 1920*1080 pc benchmark. Xbox and ps3 …

I was thinking today about some of the awesome handheld games I had as a kid. I tried doing a quick search but I don't even know what to look for. Does anyone know if there is some sort of emulator for these old handheld games out there? I think tiger was the main producer www.handheldmuseum.com/Tiger/Tiger-StreetFighter2.jpg

I recently purchased an Unreal pack from Steam which included a lot of great games one was called Waves which I've never heard of. Come to find out when launching it it's a shmup and a lot of fun. Worked perfectly with the 360 controller. I haven't tried it on my cab (it's down atm) I really like this game. Here's a link to the game http://store.steampowered.com/app/107600

Ninja Baseball BatMan Genre - Beat 'em Up Find it in your mame list and give it a try. What do you think? I tried it after I watched it on an episode of AVGN and as a fan of Beat 'em Ups I have to say this is a good title. Maybe even worthy of a theme.

Just completed this game, never had a GameCube and I read the remake was made well so thought I'd take time out setting up hyperspin and enjoy some games. Iv played it on the PS1 already but I couldn't believe how good they remade the game, all the artwork, the subtle changes to the puzzles, new areas and the bits that make you jump (alot more) are amazing. I honestly didn't think the GameCube was that good (had a PS2 at the time), I underrated it. Gonna play Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes when I have time as its meant to be a more polished version too compared to the playstation version.

It's an arcade game. The year was 1995ish. I think there was a Killer Instinct machine that was newer at the arcade. I'm pretty sure this isn't my imagination... I remember a game one of my friends always wanted me to play with him. It seemed there was 4 machines of the same type setup in a quad. I think you had to make a username and password so you could replay the next time you were at the arcade. It was a first person shooter type game. As you killed quotas of other players or enemies you would gain rank at the end of the match. I think the rank would persist the next time you came back. I don't recall using a gun. I seem to remember an 8 way joystick control. The gra…

Thanks to this forum, I got a simulation of Pong (from "Atari's Greatest Hits" for PC) running through my MAME wheel in HS. Maybe I'm in the minority on this since I think I'm older than the average HS user (I'm 45), but now I keep wondering what other un-MAME-ed games might be available via simulation rather than emulation. (I'd absolutely love to play Stunt Cycle, for instance.) Anyone know of any?
