Re: Titles of Interest Before XB 360 Market Closure

Nah no worries. Technically you can attach an external hdd up to 2TB which is massive for the size of the games during that generation. I agree regarding the backwards compatibility at the time. I remember watching that MVG’s video on the subject. If you take a look at the Wikipedia page, there are ...

Re: Titles of Interest Before XB 360 Market Closure

They made a 1TB version?! I had no idea. I was lucky to buy a 500GB hdd by itself at a local GameStop years ago for $20 brand new. It was clearanced out. In actuality, my E was the 4GB model that came with no hdd and I added the internal drive afterwards. The OG Xbox games are weird. It’s been over ...

Re: Titles of Interest Before XB 360 Market Closure

Awesome! I have one of those games from that video: Space Invaders Infinite Gene. Pretty unique spin on the SI formula. Also forward compatible with the One at least. Edit: I wanted to ask, what is everyone’s version of the console? I have the E revision with a 500GB drive. Not a lot of people like ...

Re: Nintendo 3DS

Possibly. I shined a light inside the slot and I don’t see anything in there. Cart looks fine with no blemishes or other Debris on the contacts. I tried it on both a 3DS XL and a 2DS door stop. Both have the same issues. No other cart has an issue.

Re: Nintendo 3DS

Sad news: my copy of Omega Ruby is failing. This copy is a used copy I got several years ago from a Gamestop. We're talking 208/2019. I had it on the back burner for awhile and was interested in playing it. When I put it into a 3DS XL, it didn't show up the first time, then I re-inserted it, it show...

Re: Genre of the Month (MAY 2024 TR) - Really Rad Racers

After HP2, they went heavy into the tuner stuff because of the rising popularity of the Fast and Furious movies at the time. The Underground and Most Wanted games were pretty much a product of their time. While Forza has a lot of customization options, and some pretty refined tuning, it just wasn’t ...

Re: Genre of the Month (MAY 2024 TR) - Really Rad Racers

Sega GT was my first racing game outside of cart racing. It was the first one I played using realistic licensed cars. I moved on to GameCube with Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 after that. And ended that generation with Most Wanted, skipping the Undergroud series completely. Nowadays, I’ve been hoping...

Re: Castlevania Appreciation Thread

Is it similar to the The Dracula X Chronicles on the PSP? I played Rondo on that and was wondering if it was worth hunting this newer version. That version was a remake of Rondo and had the original PC Engine version and a port of SotN as an unlock. Castlevania Requiem is a PS4 collection of Rondo ...
