3DO ZONE Forums

Ok, so I'm going to be finally getting back into 3DO in a couple of months & I turn to you all for some advice. I've already asked elsewhere what's the best way to connect a 3DO to a HDTV which doesn't have S:Video (my bad, never thought about it when I bought it) in the How Do You 3DO thread. But n...

Substitute "rambling on" for waffling, basically sorry for going on and on

Yeah, I loved the FZ-10 & because it was the one I had all the way back then I assumed I'd sell the FZ-1 but once I had one... no way. It's beautiful! And even today it still looks awesome & very modern.

Brilliant news! Their last feature, while handy for collecting, was very negative and made it sound like there were no good games and the whole idea was rubbished. Will be great to read something setting the record straight!

Liking that pad that came with Zhadnost! And oooooh that mouse! If you don't mind me asking, how much did they set you back?

I can't remember exactly what got me interested in 3DO, it may have been a Channel 4 Equinox programme on videogaming, which had some amazing footage of Madden and Road Rash. I started collecting Edge for its first year but once Playstation was announced all other systems may as well have been dropp...

I've got a LG 42" HDTV (42LS3450 if anyone's interested) & it doesn't have a S-Video input :( That's the way I used to use my 3DO a couple of years ago (before I sold it to clear debts) on my old SD TV & it was a really good picture. This new HD TV has RGB, regular aerial, 2 HDMIs, & Y Pb Pr L R. Wh...

Oh.

My.

Word.

Now that is one sexy unit.

I'm just starting out again and while I'm hoping to collect all 3DO machines I know that one will probably cost mega bucks, so congratulations on tracking one down at that price, even with all that additional cost!

Flip, I didn't even know there was a second Icebreaker game! I had a demo of the first one back in the day and loved it but unfortunately never got the full version. Going to be making up for that!

Oooooooooooooooohhhh......... me too Trev, me too!!!

Personally I'm really glad to see this thread. There's a lot of forums out there which are nearly promoting illegal copying! Knight Rider Online and Lemon 64 are two previous haunts of mine that were notorious for the illegal trading in DVDs. This is the only forum I'm a member of these days and it'...

Can I just ask about this... I recently bought a really good quality S:Video lead for my 3DOs and the picture is fantastic! however, since the Gamecube I've always spent the extra money on RGB cables for Nintendo consoles as the quality over the standards leads was well worth the expense. But compar...

Oh flip that'd be brilliant, but my almost-as-dead-as-that-dodo-in-the-3DO-adverts laptop doesn't even like playing videos for more than 10 minutes without crashing, never mind a video conference call! Damn you Nintendo why didn't you make a deal with Skype for the Wii!! I might still be able to try...

Couldn't agree more, mine has become my main gaming platform, thinking of selling my Wii now to be honest!

You got a Wii Trev? I think all the Sam & Max episodes are available for download, and they come highly recommended

hi all iam new here and big fan of 3do back in the days my first console was the nes so i jumped from nes to the 3do so u can imagine the look on my face when the first time i saw shock wave and crime patrol :D Lol I know how you felt! I went from a C64 and a GameBoy to the 3DO lol! Ok so my best m...

Great news. I hate those people that try to jump on the bandwagon and want violent games banned. They have age certificates you idiots!! If you buy a 15 or 18 cert game for your child because you can't be arsed saying no, well hey guess what? It's YOUR fault!!

Loved this little addition to the BBC News site:

Happy days, I knew they were here somewhere

Yeah I agree with 3DOKid. I was thinking about creating a Facebook group but then thought.... why?! It would only be a very poor version of what is an excellent forum, so no point really. Maybe a page with some 3DO info and screens etc, something for 3DO fans to just "like" in this "like"-ing era th...

Hey all, I recently took an interest in the 3DO, as it has many games that I'd like to check out. I actually just won an auction for an FZ-1 on ebay (let me know if I overpaid http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&rt=nc&nma=true&item=230638332838&si=JGOQT3NkEC4VYahUQY10Z...

I actually watched the first Terminator last night on BBC One... and it breaks my heart to say this, but I personally don't feel it's stood the test of time too well :shock: Well, there haven't been too many films of this calibre since it was released. So maybe you're looking to Twinkle for inspira...

What's the CDX...? The combined Mega Drive/Mega CD set?

Took ages but I eventually found some info on the Jurassic Park game I was referring to and after all that it wasn't the Commodore Amiga CD32 after all, it was the Sega Mega CD version. Here's a link which, if you scroll down a bit describes the game and has a couple of videos of the game in action....

If you haven't already posted off road rash i'll give you £5 plus post for it and you can just cancel the transaction with the buyer ;) Thanks for the offer but I can't do that lol :lol: Ive never gone to sell any 3DO games, but i have recently had simular experiences with some NEO-GEO MVS carts i ...

I'll try it out on my FZ-1 over the weekend. But isn't the whole point meant to be the songs play during a race?!

His movie-making skills are still fantastic, the actual ship sinking hour of Titanic and Avatar prove that to me.

Unfortunately his story writing skills suck these days, Titanic and Avatar prove that to me.

I'll always weigh what I'm sending and then use the Royal Mail Price Checker and charge what they state. Can't stand those people who obviously try to make profit from their postage costs! The most money I made recently was from a GameBoy Advance, the gold Legend Of Zelda edition machine. I'd bought...

Been selling a lot of stuff recently and if starting price is under £1 it's free to put on, so always put a starting price of 99p. Hasn't stopped me getting top money for some things though Plus for 3DO games there's some Buy It Now items but plenty of auctions starting out that low anyway.

I can't remember how I first found out about 3DO, but I do remember reading the early issues of EDGE, ordering back issues and a binder etc and loving it, until what I like to refer as the "Sony payoff" lol ;) I had the FZ-10 and only a handful of games but adored every second I had with that machin...
