Quote from: BlueBMW on 01/01/2011, 01:34 PMNot turbo/pce related but... something really cool arrived yesterday! This expensive little adapter allowed me to run 3 monitors off my new video card AND be able to play games across all 3 screens. Before I was using two video cards to run the 3 screens, which was great for windows, but games still only utilized the one screen. Now I am teh ubergeekt!

Here's Crysis on 3 screens!

Feed for the MSX and MegaDrive. Undeadline = instant orgasm. Been a long time since I've
played something so awesome. Probably the ultimate twitch game.

Opethian · 01/05/2011, 11:17 AM

damn I want that Undeadline!!! nice

nikdog · 01/06/2011, 09:56 AM

Last of the X-mas goods showing up.

I plan todo a little write up of the SCART to HDMI convertor. I have tested it with my SFC (RGB), Dreamcast (RGB), SuperBeta Hi-Fi (Composite), FC (RF thru the SuperBeta), Mega Drive (Composite, I need to pick up a SCART cable for it). I have a SCART cable for my Saturn as well but I haven't gotten around to testing it yet. So far I am impressed.

Terraforming

I think its pretty good. Gets a little hard for me in some of the later levels, but whatever.

Deadlite: how is Fray? I have been wanting to get it for the PCE CD... let us know if it's any good!

never heard of Undeadline... need to check it out as well... I bought my MD last year just for Shinobi..haha. need more good titles to keep the system non-lonely compared to the mega amount of friends my PCE has

JapanTokei · 01/09/2011, 06:47 AM

Deadite - that's such a pure steal - you sure it's even legal there in Osaka? hahah. ever since i sold my SGX I always have itches to get it back, but only if I can get 1941 with it at a steal price like yours...

Quote from: SuperDeadite on 12/31/2010, 06:00 AMHmm, not sure what I'm going to do with this yet, but for 1,780yen, I had to take this little guy home with me.

SuperDeadite · 01/09/2011, 09:14 AM

Undeadline is quickly becoming my favorite MD shooter. Basically bullet-hell on the MD.
Very fast, very twitchy, and extremely hard. But extremely playable. Amazing game that
rewards true skill. Hardcore to the bone, it's breathtaking just how much crap the game
throws at you at once.

Fray is a simple but fun game. PCE Fray has better graphics and music,
but Turbo-R version feels more complete in my opinion. Good clean fun if you get it
cheap. Not worth investing in though.

Opethian · 01/09/2011, 11:43 AM

I alwasy though of Undeadline as Kings Knight on steroids ^_^

TheClash603 · 01/09/2011, 10:21 PM

I just got NBA Jam for my PS3 and have been enjoying the hell outta it. Anyone with a current gen system should pick this game up, especially at $30 on Amazon.com.

blueraven · 01/10/2011, 07:26 AM

Broken Ps1 1001 $1.

SuperDeadite · 01/11/2011, 08:54 AM

Ironclad/Brikin'ger MVS, Selecty 15 (because I hate undoing VGA cable bolts),
and the greatest Star Wars game ever made.

BlueBMW · 01/11/2011, 11:37 AM

Not much new here lately... did pick up a copy of super air zonk (pc denjin cd) for PCE.

Opethian · 01/11/2011, 01:29 PM

Hye Deadlite I got an Irconclad MVS recently as well. Does your have the music as well? I found that my cart crashes if I have the Free Play DIP on.

nikdog · 01/11/2011, 03:31 PM

The star wars cart it silver!?!? Now I actually want it

SuperDeadite · 01/11/2011, 08:19 PM

Yes it has music, it's based on the Wii ROM. I never use freeplay, but so far it's run perfectly
fine on my stock MV-1B.

The Star Wars cart is actually reflective blue. Nice looking cart for an awesomely bad game.
Darth Vader morphs into a pink shark, a true masterpiece for the ages.

Tatsujin · 01/11/2011, 08:24 PM

lol, I have that SW game cibler minty. was like 100 yens and had to have it. The cart indeed looks damn nice. The game is also quite fun, as long you don't take it serious.

Opethian · 01/13/2011, 01:07 AM
