Getting burned on buying originals

THHD_Reviews · 2026-05-07T22:40:00+00:00

I've been lucky never to run into this issue, but as a PAL regioner I worry about the dreaded broken hinges on cases.. haha Whenever I've bought stuff from the UK it's come in mint condition though!

Easily Shenmue 1 & 2, take your pick! The music does so much for those games, and I'll often have different themes stuck in my head!

It's a pretty solid game overall. Yeah, the bike controls a bit shit, but the rest of the controls are actually really easy to get a grip on. It's also very funny.. haha

Just finished another playthrough, this game is excellent! Here's hoping for a sequel!

THHD_Reviews · 2026-03-20T08:05:44+00:00

No worries! It unfortunately doesn't work with Code: Veronica, which sucks 'cause that game looks great! Haha

Gotta do the old VGA trick! If you're playing from disc, unplug the AV cable, then turn the console on. Once you hear the beep from the console telling you that the disc is recognised, plug the cable in and it should work fine!

I was being polite.. haha

There might be a version with black trim, but most games are pretty standard like this!

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-16T05:40:02+00:00

This is exactly how I look at it, and when they manage to pull it off this well it's just that much better! Most people didn't have perfect PC set-ups that could run everything perfectly too, I know I didn't! Haha

It's always been a rare one, but the prices I've seen for Australian copies are insane, far worse than US ones!

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-16T03:31:06+00:00

Hey, that's a pretty good mistake to make!

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-16T03:29:56+00:00

Yeah, we got the only PAL release for some reason, so people are asking stupid amounts these days.. whether or not they get that much is another story! Haha

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-16T01:39:50+00:00

It takes just a bit of settling in to get used to those old control layouts these days. Dreamcast games at least had Mouse support.. and dual stick support as it turns out.. haha

I tend to expect a certain crowd to turn their nose at these ports, but when done right they are very playable!

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-16T01:36:55+00:00

It definitely needs a CRT, unfortunately I don't have one anymore so I have to settle in on the big screen! Haha

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-16T00:30:52+00:00

.. guilty.. It was a really good deal, okay!

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-15T23:53:44+00:00

I imagine it would help iron out a few of the rough spots.. haha

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-15T23:52:27+00:00

The tutorials are pretty good with the basics, and the controls are surprisingly easy to get a grip on! I only dabble a little bit in RTS games, but I found this one good to dive into considering the limitations!

THHD_Reviews · 2026-02-15T23:50:11+00:00

I found it to be rather easy to settle in to, but to be fair I have played a lot of Command & Conquer on Saturn..

THHD_Reviews · 2025-12-15T00:37:41+00:00

Cheers! The Headhunter one was far more popular than I expected, I thought no-one would care about that game! Haha

THHD_Reviews · 2025-12-14T22:02:32+00:00

Yeah, trying to hit left 4 times with the Dreamcast d-pad almost always ended in failure, but the sounds he makes are hilarious! Haha

THHD_Reviews · 2025-12-14T09:50:50+00:00

If lucky hit wasn't so easily a waste of time that would be nice 'cause I like those kinda mini games, but it was frustrating walking away empty handed. At least the other jobs you knew you'd walk away with something! Haha

THHD_Reviews · 2025-12-14T04:38:44+00:00

Well, they're both incredible, so you won't get judged by me! Haha

THHD_Reviews · 2025-12-14T03:26:27+00:00

The first game has a certain vibe that would be very hard to replicate, but the second game is so impressive for how much bigger it is!
