3DO ZONE Forums

Take Mario Party and remove all it's best elements (masses of game types, fun simultaneous play) and magnify it's worst points (long waiting whilst your opponents take their turns, Random elements where your opponents can suddenly beat you through no skill of their own, limited 1 player) then add lo...

These are the ones I own in order I can't comment on the others - unlike some experts I prefer to dis after I play not just because someone said on the intenet that all things 3DO suck Maybe i'll get some more 3DO games to make a fuller list of fighting games, it's just that there's too many games ...

Gah, nobody is putting fighting games into their personal order, nobody ever humour's me on this forum

Don't forget Ultraman I've never played ultraman (looked really bad) I've never played Balls or Primal Rage either (I have tons of reviews which all agree thay're really terrible games) I really don't know what to make of Sailor Moon or Yu Yu Hakusho as I'm wondering if they look and play better on...

Put all the 3DO fighting games you've played into order of greatness. I'm interested to know realistically how people think they compare to games of the time too (the best 16-bit games) OK, i'm going to attempt this, I haven't played them all yet so it's not a full list 1. Street Fighter 2 (the best...

get an NTSC machine. Consider this paramount. the difference with SF2T and even more-so with Samurai Shodown on a PAL then on an NTSC machine will smack you in the gob. honestly. I know what you mean mate (I have a modded Mega Drive and SNES) I've thought about it quite a bit but I can't afford to ...

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try & post some of the other reviews that I have written within the next few days. Might I ask what pattern it is that you see forming? :wink: In my defense I present this quote (about Space Hulk mind you, not Total Eclipse) "The only flaw is that it's a demonically ha...

At the very best this game is mediocre, un-inspired repetitive level designs and crappy weapons upgrades, all it ever had going for it was the graphics and they were surpassed pretty fast by later consoles games.

It well and truly belongs in the 60% style score (for the time)

Not to keep this going, but GamePro magazine also favored the SNES build. The paralax was the main reasoning, but there were also gripes about the lack of codes to access previous versions of the characters w/older moves intact. Also, supposedly the 3DO port has flicker in the health bars? :? I don...

I always seem to be arguing with someone on a forum about the 3DO, I've got it down now though, after the first few times it happened and I'd spent like an hour writing stuff out, these days I just copy and paste sections of my old arguments as I've already gone through the same BS with people over ...

When you blow up the balloons these little power-ups come out, like one with a wave or a rubber dingy, if you press the B button I think it uses them but nothing ever seems to happen

Cool thanks dude, is this list always the same for each specific video you've made? some of your video's may appeal to different demographics, I'd imagine that the "top 50 3DO games" video's insight's would be best as a fair blanket for finding 3DO interest. I've found this section of Youtube quite ...

Could you go on to a cross section of maybe 4-5 of your Youtube videos and go onto the [Insight] > [Popularity] > [Max] and tell me what the most 3DO loving countries are please? just something I've been wondering about

So does nobody actually know what those little icons do?!

Damn, I was hoping to convert my Top 40 3DO games feature into a top 50 but the chances are looking a bit slim now, so far I've only got Iron Angel the Return, Dragon Lore and Casper, with Gridders, Lost Eden and Twisted as maybe's

"1. 3DO has better graphics " How can you say the 3DO has better graphics when there's no Parallax scrolling. online debates are great aren't they 8) Yeah the Snes has background parallax, it also has a few more background animations in some instances, but to be honest, shit in parallax is still sh...

Doesn't the SNES version have parallax scrolling backgrounds though, where as the 3DO version (good though it is) doesn't. Maybe it does. But you know what?the Ford Ka comes with sport alloys - doesn't make it better than the Ferrari 355 :wink: Maybe so, but owning both versions and having played b...

OK, i've worked out that you need to turn the wheel's and then water comes out from the hole and zooms around till it goes to a drain but what the heck do all the collectable items do?! TBH i'm hoping the items are amazing as at the moment I'm not too impressed with this on single player or multi-pl...

I got my FZ1 second hand maybe 12 years ago and it's never given me any problems of any kind with real 3DO discs, where copies are concerned it seems to muck up fmv sometimes.

Captain Quazar is 2-player

I appreciate your comments, but I only directed my criticism of Trip'd towards its single player mode. I can't criticise the multiplayer because, as I stated, I had not tried it at the time I posted my review. I blame this on the main game dampening my spirits to continue playing. However, to be fa...

3DO Experience wrote:Control is, at best, mediocre. When turning left or right, the control is not especially precise, with your character turning far more than you want.

Thats because you're not using the smooth look, which happens when you hold down the L button I believe.

I personally think Total Eclipse is brilliant. And it still very playable. I actually completed it recently too, and while it is showing it's age a little, I still think it's better than a lot of shooters out there today. Considering it was the U.K. release title. It's like Crash N' Burn. Both rele...

Interesting list ... the bottom 20 surprised me a bit, but the top 20 were pretty spot on w/my own opinion. You rated D lower than Soccer Kid? Soccer Kid is great! :P Nice to find another who shares my views of Immercenary too. My only gripe ... where or where is Twisted? Thanks for the kind words,...

Success is relative obviously. The UK and Germany loved all things Amiga didn't they?

I dunno dude, i'd say a console that always made money for it's creators from it's first release till the end would be classed as being successful.

People simply didn't buy anything (32x, CDi, 3DO, CD32 or Jaguar) No, the CD32 was actually a success, but Commodore UK had been carrying Commodore international for years, Commodore International was losing money faster than the UK branch were making it and even though the CD32 was selling well it...

Trip'd is a really great game, I've been playing a lot of puyo puyo recently too and I think that Trip'd is probably a better multiplayer game! when you start to lose in puyo it really snow balls and you're basically screwed, this doesn't happen in Trip'd, if you buckle down you can still come back ...
