Yeah, I like being able to have access to any level I've reached without having to keep two dozen save files. Plus, I don't have to worry about the many ways that save files can be lost. Finally, I can play the same game on any console or emulator without going through the complicated process of tra...

Yeah, it's tough for me to include the XBOX and XBOX 360 ports when considering the best "home" version available, because it's clear they are straight PC conversions. Then again, why play some of the older ones when you have these? For novelty's sake, I suppose.. :lol: Well, there's the alternate ...

Regarding the Saturn version, it is a botched port of the PlayStation version. It's the same game, but has a horrible framerate in areas (mostly the wide open stages, like in parts of DOOM II and towards the end of Ultimate DOOM), and it has a mildly-tolerable framerate on the indoor areas. There a...

I still keep going back to Icebreaker. Even though it can be aggravating at times, it's so addictive and there's so many levels to check out. I also love that they named the climactic level 30 after one of my all-time favorite novels. Gonna have to find me a couple hours where I can read through the...

I've played through it a couple times now. Ended with "Maximum Eric" the first time, then with "Pretty Bracelet". I understand what the reviewer on Gamespot meant about the plot being difficult to follow, but I think he's completely wrong about it being due to the gameplay. It's a typical case of co...

If there's one shortcoming in the set of four games that came with my first 3DO, it's that there are no FMV-heavy games among them. Being in a bit of a rush to rectify that, I purchased this game for cheap online. It just came in the mail today. Just curious what everyone else's opinions on the game...

Thanks, guys! 8) i do have The Horde on the Saturn and 3DO and i like the Saturn version more, and only play that one, mainly because of the save bug on the 3do version, and i like Saturns controllers I already have the Saturn version of the Horde(didn't even real...

3DO or Saturn version?
Before I got a 3DO, I had just assumed I would go with the Saturn version of any game appearing on both consoles that caught my interest. After all, I am a Saturn fanatic, and enjoying seeing the system at work even on the less proud members of its games library. However, now that an actual 3DO is s...

Oh yeah, I forgot to ask in this thread's original post... I tried "load" on Slayer just to see what sort of saves the previous owner had on the machine, and was taken immediately to the dungeon. So is Slayer absolutely limited to one save slot? Also, I'd heard Slayer has a memory manager. How do I ...

Actually, SCII has an epic story! Seriously, you'll be blown away. 8) Awesome! Star Control II was already one of the 3DO games I was most looking forward to, due to what I've heard about the gameplay and it being a Crystal Dynamics game. Even better if it has a good story! I definitely liked retur...

First Impressions
Now that I've had my 3DO for a few days and have been fooling with some of the games that came with it, I thought I'd share my first impressions. I love the look and feel of the console itself; very professional. Only problem is, where's the reset button? The controller's decent. It has the same ele...

I reckon it's time I introduced myself. If it hasn't become apparent in my posts so far, I'm a Saturn fanatic, so you can expect to become sick of me comparing 3DO games to Saturn games in the same genre before long. :wink: Never heard of the 3DO back in the day, as I had no interest in video games ...

I figure it must have been at least a year after the Jaguar's launch. Otherwise, why would they have proceeded with development for the Jaguar CD hardware and software? Also, I have to go with mainstream wisdom on the subject and say that the Jaguar's last chance at cutting it was the 1994 holiday s...

Well, I've got a problem. The 3DO came in the mail an hour before my leaving on a short trip, so I thought I'd just see if the drive door works. I plug it in, not realizing that the power button is in the "on" position, and the unit starts making a high-pitched whining. I've never seen a 3DO in the ...

Thanks for the quick responses, guys! I did go ahead and bid on it.

In my continued quest for my first 3DO, I just came across this Ebay listing , which ends in a mere six hours. It's an FZ-1, my model of choice, and comes with four games, including two of the five 3DO games which interest me most, Guardian War and Slayer. But despite what strikes me as a fairly rea...

Burn Cycle Mission Briefing?
I was just doing my semi-regular search for an attractive 3DO bundle on Ebay, when I found a listing which includes, along with the 3DO console itself and four other games, a game called "Burn Cycle Mission Briefing". What's this "Mission Briefing"? You can see in the photo that the cover of the gam...
