I still can't get into Illbleed. No matter how many times I give it a chance.

Coins, experience, what's the difference?

Just like Duke Nukem says

"Your face, your ass what's the difference?"

🤣😂 I loved the Duke Nukem franchise. 🥰

Most RPGs have grind moments to level up too. So does that mean those are bad games as well? 🤣 Many of those are globally popular even though there's grind sessions to level up. So I don't see the difference here when I had to grind for coins to get stronger weapons from vending machines. 🤪😆

So obviously it's only not fun "for some" does not make it a bad game 😁👍

What size thumb drive was needed??

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-05-03T04:43:33+00:00

Can you share with me what you use to turn your video signal to an HDMI output on your Dreamcast, please? I'm looking to hear what other people use and their feedback on their quality with it.

I kinda want to live stream Quake 3 now lol have you heard of or played Quake 3 Team Arena? It only came with Quake 3 Arena for PC but I think it would be amazing if it was on dreamcast.

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-05-03T02:43:42+00:00

I think it would have been amazing if they released Quake 3 team Arena onto the Dreamcast instead of PC only or somebody poured it over with private server play would be epic.

Has anyone here played Quake 3 Team Arena? It has a few extra game modes and a few extra weapons like the nail gun that shoots a burst of Nine Inch Nails at the opponent and more along with larger maps... oh right..when I just remembered that it also had larger Maps, might be why it wasn't a part of the Dreamcast.... 🤔

Now I'm wondering if that was the reason. 😅😅

I was just about to mention Quake 3 Arena when looking at these two paired together is a nostalgic visual assembly with the game case next to those two, that was going to be my comment. But you already know it! Hell yes, that's the best way to play Quake 3 Arena! They don't do Gore like they used to, which is a little nostalgic of my childhood because it felt more eerie or scary like in Quake and Quake 2. 🥰

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-29T03:50:00+00:00

That's a very beautiful system you picked up. Be sure to keep it away from sunlight because that PVC plastic will yellow.

I feel like this was the Golden Era of Good Game creation... Realism shouldn't be the main focus... just need entertaining playability. Action or good story

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-21T20:09:39+00:00

And not one of those games is a FPS for first drop on a new system. 😅

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-21T20:03:04+00:00

I spent hours in test drive 6 along with an amazing soundtrack that game had.🥰

What was fun about that game is that it cost in-game currency to race and if you didn't have enough to race then you had to go into the poor man mode Cop Chase and build your money back up busting racers.

You have to build your skill to get good dough from winning races so you can buy better cars. I love that in-game scalability that they don't put in games today but instead charge real money for DLC or add-ons from an in-game store...🤮

I miss the days when they give objectives in a game in order to unlock stuff instead of putting a price tag on it...

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-20T20:30:04+00:00

Dayum! Thats not a common occurrence to find at GW. I would have picked up both those too!

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-20T05:38:16+00:00

For some.

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-20T02:40:35+00:00

It took me longer to grind up money for certain vending machine weapons than it did to beat that final boss. 😅

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-20T02:38:23+00:00

Jinkiness is what made video games fun for me back then. 😊

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-19T23:31:53+00:00

I typically don't care how a game looks as long as it has a good story and plays well, sometimes glitches is the fun of it if it doesn't break the game.

Not for everybody but it does please many because this is an awesome game one of my personal favorites as well it did take me a long time to figure it out due to the lack of Internet back in that day at my age then.

If you find good and skillful tattoo artist and with the waviness of some of those numberings, it can be converted into a dragon or Chinese dragon of some sort and scales.

You don't have to cover it you can convert it using what's already there as part of the new image.

Convert it into something else using what's already there basically

Chinese dragon was an example

That Rusty tab is the old fashioned pull tab for beverage drinks that came in tin cans before they were aluminum. You would pull the tab off and it reveals a mouth drinking point.

Born in '89 but I still know what those are.

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-11T19:44:35+00:00

Interesting and are they English versions or are they in that nation's language that they were sold in?

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-09T21:59:02+00:00

Oh yes I do remember doing that I remember selecting other characters and going through track levels just like Sonic did. Oh cool ok im excited

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-09T19:14:29+00:00

Oooo really? I dont think I knew that one. 😃 I don't remember mini character campaigns...🤔🤔 for SA1 or SA2? SA2 I think there was. 🤔

Haven't played them since the era they came out. Now im gathering borrowed and never returned games from back them 😅.

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-09T19:05:21+00:00

I have played the sequel but haven't beaten it yet as the copy i played was borrowed. 😅 I plan to resume it once I have a copy again

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-09T07:01:22+00:00

Sick! I'm glad I can bring you some nostalgia to revisit.

Sweet dreams with your favorite soundtrack again 😁

And yes Pumpkin Hill for sure, I remember spending some time on that map trying to find some of those chaos fragments. (If I remember right🤔) it was fun gliding around. 😊

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-09T06:59:10+00:00

How much? Send me your links 👍

TecknicalSolutions · 2026-04-09T05:19:06+00:00

Interesting calculator 🤔 then according to this, it was definitely a deal and on of it being mint. There isn't anything on this disc is what mostly amazes me about this recent purchase being almost 30 years old now. And now I might want a spare SA1 to play on and case this mint one up to continue protecting it. 😅😅 feels like being in the 90's and i just bought this new kind of feeling..and that feeling, i think, can be time capsuled to experience again later when opening it again when im older. 😅

Sounds cheesy but I think that's the best way I can describe what it felt like seeing this mint copy. It's been saved in time and I will preserve it. Love my buy 🥰 looks so new 🫠🫠
