I remember in early 2000s wanting to see what the first metal gear games were like, so I downloaded one for emulation, nes or snes. I was a normie so there is no fucking way it was something super geeky like MGX or comodore or whatever the fuck, it was either nes, snes, master system or mega drive. Heck for all I know I might have played it on original hardware. It played exactly like metal gear but 2D, it was top down, you had to avoid guards in a military base (I think it was game over if you got spotted). I got stuck super early in the game, like 2 minutes into the game because I got into a room with a bunch of metal gear looking robot and had no idea what to do in it (I think they killed me I 'm not even sure). There was text displayed when I entered the room but I could barely read english back then so it didn't help much.
All I did was download a rom from a popular website, nothing obscure but I can't for the life of me find this game or segment again and chatgpt is fucking useless and keeps telling me that it could be a bootleg or some shit but it was too high production. I don't have deep search available until june 12. To be clear I replayed metal gear on NES and it's nothing like what I remember safe for the top down and kinda stealth gameplay, and it didn't start in a base like what I played. I skimmed metal gear 2 it's not it nor is it ghost of babel. Maybe it was a metal gear game, maybe it wasn't and I am just retarded I don't know anymore but I need to find it.
I made a mock up of the room in question with the metal gear robots which is the part I couldn't understand and it stuck to me for decades. Fucking help me you retro autists I beg of you
The X68000 was released as a console in late 1986 as was originally intended and costed $300 to make and sell (meaning it broke even); What changes.
Reminder that when the X68000 became a computer all Sharp did was. >Delay the system to 1987 to make it a half baked computer. >Bump the main ram up from 256KB to 1MB. >Bump the video ram up from 128KB to 512KB. >Bump up the sprite ram from 1KB to 32KB (due to storing sprite data into ram) >Replace carts with disks, carts ended up becoming expansion cards. >Added in disk drive/parallel port/keyboard/mouse controllers. >Include video mixing hardware. >Bumb down the controller button count from 8 (6 primary face buttons as well as Select and Start, 12 counting the D-Pad) to 2 (since the keyboard did everything else). >Jack the price up to $3000 when the computer only cost $900 to make, including the monitor, speakers, keyboard, controller and mouse.
My favorite thing about pre-Underground Need for Speed games is the specific brand of electronic music they used to have. Techno, big beat, I don't know what to call it. This song for instance is a perfect example of what I mean. Are there others that you know of? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZi4qE6Ll6E
