On my lunch break they have the Retro Game Trader store and they apparently just got it in. In fair condition for $20. Long box, instructions everything.

Re: 3DO NFS Competition...Who's the best in the world?
I really shouldn't of, I should of spent the money on other more necessary things but it was right there and wouldn't have stayed for long. So I just did it.
I'm a bad bad man.

Re: 3DO NFS Competition...Who's the best in the world?
Yeah I have no idea what I'm doing. I should probably read the instructions at this point.

Re: 3DO NFS Competition...Who's the best in the world?
I have played this game on the PSX only. Back in the day my friend rented it and we played it. And last year when I bought a copy for my cousin (PSX) from the Portland Retro Gaming Expo for a dollar.
Now I finally get this iconic game in its original form.

This is by far the best version, the Sega Saturn version is the next best of the console versions.

I am learning this pretty fast I think. I might have to kick the difficulty up a notch.

Are you playing this on a PAL/50hz console, or are you running an NTSC machine?
At some point, I hope to get a US FZ-1, as I suspect it will run the majority of my PAL collection correctly.
I had a JP unit briefly and, have to say, the in game resolution was affected quite heavily/negatively by the full screen/60hz, whoch I didn't expect. NFS & RR looked MUCH sharper running at 50hz...

Re: 3DO NFS Competition...Who's the best in the world?
Great results! I want to see a video. Don't know how its possible to speedup to 199 mph on Coastal and 197.5 on Alpine track...

Re: 3DO NFS Competition...Who's the best in the world?
Its not hard at all. On Alpine you can floor it all the way to the right hander going up the hill, you will very easily hit 195+ on the way down the hill if you dont hit a car.Versus wrote:Great results!

On Coastal, you can get 202.7mph if you want to hold it flat to the end of the long straight, which results in hitting the wall at the speed, but it can indeed be done.

Re: 3DO NFS Competition...Who's the best in the world?
No mate ive got a Japan FZ-10. The PAL region consoles that ive seen such as the FZ-10-E dipsplayed the same 640x480 resolution within a window on the 768x576 total frame, hence the boarder all the way around and illusion of better sharpness.NeoGeoNinja wrote:@NeoGeoManCasetheCorvetteman wrote:Take it to pro, you wont ever look back.

It is not the case at all, they both run the games at the exact same resolution, just that one of them doesnt use the whole screen to do it. The 60Hz part has nothing to do with it either, the games all still run at the same frame rate on both consoles, and its not 60fps anyway.
There is every chance it looked nicer because your TV was better calibrated for PAL than it was NTSC, which is quite often the case, and PAL encoding has a better colour reproduction than NTSC. They both come in 50Hz and 60Hz flavours, in some parts of Asia they use or did use NTSC at 50Hz and it is the same 768x576i that PAL50 is.
This is why its best to use RGB, then there is no PAL or NTSC.

Too bad I can't find my gamepads for 3DO to check the saves of NFS and look for my records. More worse that the battery which keep NVRAM saves could be discharged.

Re: 3DO NFS Competition...Who's the best in the world?
I put in a little time on NFS today to see how close I can come to the times in this thread. I seem to be at least 1 minute behind the fastest times on the first segments. Guess I'll need a lot more practice
