i’ve always toyed with the idea on what it would be like if 3s managed to get a port on the Playstation, or, possibly the Saturn.
Now, I know 3s port on the PS1 would be severely butchered because of shit specs etc, etc, e.g. missing frames of animation, downsized resolution, downsampled music, no arranged mixes, all the superficial bullshit.
But what I would like to get out of this thread, is the input from Third Strike players on what specific gameplay changes would come out of porting it to the PS1 or Saturn w/o ram carts. If the DC port wasn’t 100% accurate, then I would like to know what kind of damage would come from a 32bit console port?
I just wanted to come in here and say that this is a really, REALLY stupid thread and the only reason I’m bumping it is because other people need to see just how stupid it really is.
My cousin was a pro at the BadDudes. But then again he was grinding the NES games into like 1998 there as his only console. His Megaman 1 runs & getting thru the block respawn jump parts was awesome.
Yeah we had only the SNES, and thus sweaty MK. $70 World Warrior too. Fuckin Blanka. But in the arcade I guess it was, Fuckin Vega Slide by dudes twice my age. Gdammit I need to Tatsu this guy.
Some GameBoy games weren’t too bad. OperationC or whatever the contra was called. Metroid II apparently is a game that held its value, but I’ve never played it.
OperationC and Metroid II were a couple of the best early gameboy games ever made. Missed out on M II myself unfortunately but a good friend swore by it.
So instead of upgrading a game you want to downgrade it? How stupid and degrading can you get!!! Its a good thing that all the smart professional game developers don’t follow your way of thinking. Oh…
M2 was sick. But I was too young and it was mad difficult. I remember I had some older kid borrow my game and save right before the last boss. So for about 3 years all I did was beat the last boss over and over lol.
PS1 couldn’t even handle Children of the Atom. In IG’s hands, 360 and PS3 couldn’t handle 3s. Like ST before it, Third Strike is basically an arcade only game, 3 decades on.
Sounds like dedication to me. Super Metroid was dope too. Top 3 SNES imo. What a franchise.
Hey maybe your boss grind in MII set up the neural pathways for all the time you’ve spent in training mode, lol!
it’s an issue of good business v bad business. it would be terrible business to spend the time to rebuild 3s from the original code to run flawlessly on 360 and ps3. nothing is to blame except the game itself for not having a big enough consumer base to ever warrant something like that.
