Tim Shafer. Returning to PC gaming, what do I need to play?
I have bought an Intel small form factor PC to catch up on the last 15 years of PC games. I picked up Psychonauts for a dollar on GOG and want to know what other games of his will give me a good overview of Tim Shafers work. I played the old LucasArts games to my satisfaction, but is Brutal Legend w...

Re: oXbox Component Cable Help/Recommendation
Okay, bypassing power surge and removing possible electrical interference didn't help. I tested from both HDD loading & disc. Problem is not there with OEM composite cables. Pic below. Hard to capture. It's actually worse in person. Look just above the lower horizontal tree branch & then ri...

Re: oXbox Component Cable Help/Recommendation
FWIW I have the same experience regarding cheap chinese cables, shimmery pixel artifacts and questioning whether or not to drop big bucks on better quality cables. Nothing to add, but interested in the outcome.

Re: Fixing Donkey Kong on GameBoy
Hold up guys, I am certain the DK94 cart uses a different battery to the Pokemon "hybrid color" carts. From memory it uses a CR1620 cell, not the larger CR2025. No difference in voltage, just in physical size. I haven't done the swap yet, but i did do the teardown (years ago) to inspect.

Re: The packaging to original XBOX games looks tacky to me
It makes them super easy to identify from across the (garage sale, op-shop, etc...). Also as everyone else said already, best ports, lowest prices!

Re: Klonoa questions
I really enjoyed the Klonoa Wii-make and the first GBA game. The Wonderswan version is a system seller for me, but I haven't pulled the trigger on it yet...

Re: Play THIS if you can't play THAT
Ooo, I have one! If you want to play Sly Cooper, but only have a NDS, check out Over the Hedge! You answered your own question! Is Overthe Hedge a licensed movie game? Assuming you'd say it's a hidden gem platformer? Interesting. Kim Possible on the PS2 opened my eyes a bit on the possibility of le...

I reckon that may have something to do with it, as when this first happened I had new batteries in and they appeared to run out quickly - only to be re-used in my GBA with no problem. Hmmm, how to fix?
Its a feature!
