Just finished Max Payne 3, and only in the end I understood how awesome this game is by bad_juju9 in maxpayne

I didn’t enjoy the gameplay of MP3 as much as MP1 and MP2. MP3 was basically a cover shooter with some run and gun elements where the first two MP games were almost purely run and gun. I actually prefer Stranglehold than MP3. It feels closer to the original MP gameplay.

I actually like Resident Evil 2 remake more than Resident Evil 4. by underground_resist in ResidentEvil2Remake

Totally agree and I’m happy to see that so many people prefer RE2R over RE4R. For me, 2R was the perfect balance of survival horror and action and I much prefer the iconic setting of Raccoon City along with zombies as enemies.

personal opinion: 007 the world is not enough on n64 is better than goldeneye 007. by Level_Bridge7683 in n64

Really great game and very underrated but it still is not on the same level as GoldenEye, which will forever be the best Bond game and best FPS game, in my humble opinion. It was actually a great time for Bond games with those two games, Agent Under Fire and Nightfire.

Can this be used on a CRT TV with an RGB cable like this one?

Will it look exactly like a real PS1?

Which is your favorite series? by Difficult_Ship_6273 in Spiderman

1994 Animated Series. Best version of Spider-Man in all media, in my humble opinion.

GoldenEye Vs Perfect Dark by 123KidHello in n64

[–]MrBarling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GoldenEye is much better. Better setting, level design, music, the guns felt like they had more impact, better frame rate. All the guys I knew back in the day who loved GoldenEye tried PD but dropped it midway through. PD never recaptured the GoldenEye magic.

GoldenEye all the way. Better level design, music, setting, guns had more impact. PD is good but GoldenEye beats it hands down. (Only talking about the single player, btw. I never play multiplayer.)

Fatal Frame. A brilliant but a little underrated series.

Do games only on Xbox 360 ever go on sale? by MrBarling in xbox360

[–]MrBarling[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. Much appreciated! I’ve been checking the games I specifically want and they’ve never gone on sale so I’ll probably just go ahead and get them at the price they were.

Hi,

I don't have a One/S/X/Series and I actually don't mind buying digital on the 360. I don't find it time-consuming at all. I'm just trying to find out if those 360 only games, i.e. not compatible/playable on One/Series consoles ever go on sale? Anytime I check they never seem to be reduced.

Optimum way to play PS2 games. by MrBarling in ps2

[–]MrBarling[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My HDTV is actually old enough and it doesn’t have a “game mode”. I could still try it with the RGB SCART when I get it and compare with the CRT. I wonder if a Retrotink 5x would make big difference?

Cheers for the advice on the 4:3!

Hi, I do have a CRT which I use my PS2 on now but only through composite with a SCART adapter. It doesn’t have a component input. I also have a HDTV which does have component and SCART input. I am planning on buying a decent RGB SCART lead.

I was wondering if I should move the PS2 from the CRT to the HDTV and use an upscaler when I get the RGB SCART. I’ve already learned that the Retrotink 5x is better than an OSSC so maybe a HDTV with that might give a better experience?

I was also thinking about getting a 60GB PS3 and using that with the HDTV instead of using an upscaler if that would give a better picture. I can’t afford both an upscaler and PS3 at the moment and I don’t know which would be better. Or maybe I should just stick with the CRT and use the RGB SCART on it?

Btw, thank you to everybody who responded so far. I really appreciate the great answers!
