_________________________________
Anyone remember the Spriggan contest we had on these forums four or five years ago? I was thinking of doing something similar, this time with Zeroigar, but we need enough people to make it worthwhile.
The game has a nice 2 minute mode that would be perfect for such a contest. The 2 minute mode is scored a little differently than, say, Spriggan as in Zeroigar you're given a finite number of "super weapons" right from the start that all share a common "energy meter." The catch is, your final bonus is tallied by how much of this meter is left unused + how much life you have left.
So... who's got a PC-FX? And who's got Zeroigar? A PC-FX is really the only "must" as there are, uh, ways to get ahold of Zeroigar.
Who's in?
Id be in depending on the time frame.
I gotta do some furniture moving, and some homework project and all of that... but Id be down. PC-FX is so hood.
Yeah, we'd set a deadline for scores like three weeks or a month out or something, give everyone some time to get a copy of the game (if they don't already have it) and get some play time in.
Nobody else? Seriously? I know for a fact Arkhan and myself aren't the only people on here who own a PC-FX.
I'm down for that... I'll hardly get first place, so I suppose I'll be bringing up the rear? :roll:
later gamers
-scotty
So we've got three.... C'MON PEOPLE!
I know. Everyone is just afraid they'll lose. Step up and prove me wrong.
sell me a pc-fx with a "copy" of Zeroigar and I'm in.
Where were you a couple years ago when I was selling repaired PC-FXes for $40-$60?
Actually, IIRC, you almost bought one but backed out at the last moment.
:-k
Well, nat, you've given me a new project. I need to fix a PCFX.
For shits and giggles, I'll unofficially join in on the fun; I'll be the L337 H4xoR on the sidelines playing on M.E.F.X.
Ima start tryin me a score attackin tomorrow.
sidenote: is there a way to hook a pcfx up to a 55" bravia and NOT have it look like dick?
I'm busy, but I'll try to join in. :)
Ummm... how do I get to the timed attack mode? Yes, I am le dumb.
I think it's third option on the main menu, then first option from the next screen.
Thanks, nat. I'll try it again tonight.

correct, I still kick myself when that all went down. Sorry dude. I hope that doesn't tarnish my rep for buying and selling stuff with you or others...
Nah, believe me, I had no trouble moving them at that price point.
I take it you're all out?
Quote from: nat on 09/17/2010, 10:16 PMNah, believe me, I had no trouble moving them at that price point.
Yeah, been out for a loooong time....

Shit - either M.E.F.X. has a bug or my rip is fubar. Either way, I'm not going to get to join in on the festivities, as this just leads to a black screen. :(
The normal game played fine, though. I got to show off my suck by dying
twice against the weak sauce first boss. :dance:
Strange, I wonder if MEFX has a bug. Doesn't seem like the game would work at all if your rip was bunk.
I still have the game, but no hardware atm/anymore :(
we still doing this? I will join the fun....my fx has not been used since I made the devotional film....
I'd love to do it, but it doesn't seem like we have enough people to make it interesting. I keep hoping some more folks will chime in.... I *know* there are more people with PC-FXes here that haven't spoken up.
ME-FX doesn't emulate something that Zeroigar uses, use Mednafen instead.
I would play if I had a copy of the game. I'll have to "find" it and see if it will work on my system.

I tried to get it to run and failed miserably. I am le dumb.
I forgot about this. I need to burn me a copy of the game since i don't own me a copy of the game.
I have an FX coming in within the next few weeks... as long as burns work on them I could probably join in on a Zeroigar contest... :P
OK. Hopefully we can get one or two more people, that would be great.
I just got an FX the other day, and I have a .... uh copy of Zeroigar :P Haven't played much but I'll join in a contest if there is one!
By the way nat, props for most ambiguous thread title ever.
So here's who we have so far:
FOR SURE
nat
BlueBMW
PCEngineFX
neofan
MAYBE
Arkhan
SuperDeadite
If we can turn those two "maybes" into "for sures" and get one or two more people on top of that, I'll say we're good to go for a contest.
I could offer some of these FX games I got as prizes if anyones interested. Not sure which ones yet but I know there's a few I don't want to keep.
I'd be interested if it's something I don't already own, but I might be the only one, ha.
I'm anticipating that I will NOT win! I cant even pass the second level in the game yet!
Plenty of time to practice while we wait for one or two more to join and for Arkhan and Deadite to commit.
..yooo.. I've finally got hold on a copy of Zeroigar (CAN"T WAIT, I've been waiting for it for sooo long), should be in by mail very soon~ keep you guys updated,, =)
Ok I'll join. After this week I'll have a nice long vacation to sit on my ass and play games.
Should be fun, I haven't played this one in awhile. :)
I'm ready when you guys are!
I'll start...this is the first time in YEARS that I've hooked up my FX (sad I know) and only the second time playing the 2min mode. Didn't kill the boss :(

EDIT: Photo working now...
I'll pull out the FX tonight and give it a shot :P I don't think I'll do much better though.
Fuck I forgot to burn this and play it.
WILL BE DOING IT MOMENTARILY AND SEEING HOW BAD I SUCK
Ha! I'm in.
Wait, I don't have Zeroigar.
I've actually only played this game a little bit on a friend's PC-FX ~10 years ago.
I just realized that I need to play this game now. Now.
I'm glad that it's only taken 4 months for this thread to be re-juvenated.
Can I get a small tutorial on getting to 2 minute mode? :oops:

DAMNIT I KEEP FORGETTING.
IS THIS CONTEST STILL GOING ON.
Did it ever start?
DONTTTT STOP
BELIEEEEVIN
Ima burn this motherbitch when I get home. and then ima play it for the first time ever.
It never officially started. We'll start this soon for real, I promise.
I just have magicengine and doesn't seem to work with the 2 minute mode. Anyone can confirm?

Emulating the PC-FX is like wacking off instead of gettin it on with a lady

#-o
Well, in my defense the thread has been going on for like 6 months.
listen, the PC-FX is not to be taken lightly. This contest could go for years before people are ready to become advanced OBEYers and get the glorious white dating sim box and play some epic games.

I just found out there is a version Power League for the FX. I may become an OBEYer now.

Power League on the FX was EXCELLENT!! It reminded me of Super Bases Loaded (SNES) a bit, but with amazing sound, HUGE sprites, zooming colours, and rokken cut-scenes!!

It was the game I had played the most when I briefly owned the FX. Damn, now I'm missing the PC-FX.....

Talk to Arkhan... he's got a copy :lol:
That power league game looked retarded but I played it and I was like WOO!
its pretty good.
Definitely the best Power League game out there.

I'm in.
OK, what the hell.
LET'S GET THE PARTY STARTED.
Deadline for score entries is one month out-- let's say March 15th 11:59PM.
I know that's a long time, but I have a feeling some of the people "in" on the contest probably won't even check this thread for a week or two. Hell, I barely ever even look at the PC-FX section myself. I will update the first message with everyone's name and current high score. The list gets locked as final at 12:00AM March 16th.
I have a nice minty copy of Pia Carrot that can go to the winner! :lol:
Oh yeah, I was gonna say winner gets... bragging rights. :)
But if someone else wants to offer up a real prize, by all means, feel free.
Also, all high scores need to be backed up by a screenshot. Real system plays strongly preferred. Playing via emulation has the potential for save states giving unfair advantages.
One more thing: it's never too late to join the fun.....
Quote from: nat on 02/16/2011, 08:22 PMBut if someone else wants to offer up a real prize, by all means, feel free.
Pia Carrot! :P its here "waiting for you" :lol:
CMON BITCHES. GET YOUR HIGHSCORES IN OR IMA MAKE NEW FORUM ACCOUNTS AND PLAY WITH MYSELF.
Can't get past 261,000 Starting to figure it out though.
OK, who can sell me a PC-FX so I can join in?!
Serious!

Yeah, it's not like other 2 minute caravan modes where your score is based strictly on kills and finding secret bonuses. In Zeroigar, time left on the clock after defeating the boss, life left, and special weapon power left all play a huge part in your final score.
Here's my current:

So where's everybody else?!? Let's get these scores rolling in!
DAMN. NOW I NEED TO GO PLAY AND TOP IT.
beat me by like, <4000 pts
BASTARD.
Is it too late to get in on this? If not, I've got a score. Played a couple rounds of Caravan Mode and was only able to get this score.

I'll keep pluggin' along...
Your image is broken. I tried opening the URL in a new tab, and it's still broken.
And no, not too late. Contest runs until March 15. As a matter of fact, I'm wondering where some of the others who wanted to participate are.
I'm still planning on posting a score, but I've got to get one thats not embarrassing!

Sorry 'bout that. Should be fixed now.
It will probably be too late to enter, but I'm gonna give it a shot too! Just bought a PC-FX and as soon as i get it in the mail I'm in for the challenge!
ITS NEVER TOO LATE TO OBEY.
Anyone who gets a score in before the deadline (March 15) is welcome to participate.

Why are you still up? Go to sleep. I have to wake up in three hours, myself.
:)
Back on topic: March 15
REMINDER:
There are only three days left for this. We still haven't had scores turned in from neofan, SuperDeadite or BlueBMW.
Let's get playing, folks!
got my pcfx in and playing zeroigar now!
You're welcome to submit score as long as you do so before the end of March 15th.

My scores arent "high" though :lol: I'll post one tomorrow :oops:
I stayed up late last night playing over and over to get a higher score, so here is mine:

and showing the FX to ensure no "game enhancement devices" are attached :P

Also I just want to say I'm actually pretty impressed with the PC-FX so far, I like the polished 2d sprites and the video quality is good. For the games I've tried, there hasnt been much loading time especially transitioning from video to gameplay. There was some potential there, even if not as graphically impressive as the playstation or saturn.
Grrr not as good as you guys. Oh well :P Here it be...

Today is the LAST DAY for entries. 11:59PM Pacific Time.
