Gbax 2004 Best Gp32 Entries?

[Tobriand]

Vertical is a fun game although I can only last about 10 seconds in it.

Do you use the shield, out of interest? It makes it a lot easier

Of course, Gigadrive is brilliant. Then personal faves would be (so far - I still have no z80 games, so I can't try gmame) vertical, crazy jack and numo. But there is a slight issue that obviously I'll be more excited by games I've never seen before - so hence no mention of GPFinalWar (which will be unbelieveably amazing).

I'm sure GPWar is great, but its one of the few I haven't tried yet, so can't really menion it...

The Vertical shooter and the genesis emulator are superb, but honorable mentions to the card game for gp32.

 

[rcx21000]

Agree with Mash

Only problem with card game is that the buttons get pressed to fast. Almost like there is no delay after a button press is detected... It's not fun when you have an almost perfect thing, and you press A and realize that it thought you pressed twice...

GPwars, kinda confuses me, I can undertstand the choices to alter it form the original but it sorta looses some of it's functionality at the same time. The lack of a visible fight or even a damage animation leaves you to relay on the tiny number to realize you've been hurt by an enemy unit. The direction numbers are an exceptable consession but you really should be able to go through your own units. and the music.... well there's atleast one choice that I like.

GPfinalwar, It's coming together nicely! I kinda wish the zoom was handled by the L and R triggers...I also wish it was easier to get into the resource management window (2 presses of select?) and a better defintion of what each building and weapon does in game rather than a txt file.

Vertical is TOUGH. Okay I like the turning of the GP to play it but I got messed up by the shiled button location, it's too dificult to press the shield on the R trigger. I would rather it be on the L (or put the fire there so you can fire with you palm and hit the shield on start).

Gigadrive.

Hands down. If he doesn't win, I'll cry!

Agreed i think this should win!

Edit: Also what exactly is Gmame compatible what roms do I use with it?

 

[bringoutthegimp]

for me number 1 is numo its amazing. 2 - gigadrive 3 - cards/xigon 1, emuman isnt getting enough praise for xigon1. its a really nice shooter but theres a few things that annoy me (the opening music sucks, the collision detection for the ship is too damn close and i couldnt get the shop to work after the first level). games i didnt try - gpwar: not enough space on my smc, alien eraser, vertical, gamasumo, gmame, gpamp, card casino, kof 91: same problem as gpwar, kronos, okf, zot, final war

honourable mentions: Darts - lots of features, nice one im glad this got entered, gpsweeper - MINESWEEPER = class game,

 

[ste_167]

Is everyone dismissing KOF91 because it's been out for so long...? For me, it wins hands down as the most complete entry. Brilliant port

 

[Twinbee]

Is it any different?

The last time I tried it, it looked completely naff and wasn't really much fun to play.

 

[DoberMann]

I'm happy that you like gpwar!
It needed some advertising from me but now you like it.
Happy.

Aqua will be happy too. And remember: it's still in development. Battle animations were allready in the game but didn't look very nice- so aqua took them out. If you are saying one should walk over your units - you're right.
I hope Aqua finishes it in the next version.

How do you like the maps????

 

[mattribute]

KOF91 is fecking amazing, and is probably the best entry...

 

[sammster001]

gigadrive wins hands down especially over a normal port!!!!!!

With a port of a game you get just that, a game.
With an emulator you get hundreds of games at your disposal!!!!

Sonic 1,2, and even more unexpectadly sonic and knuckles all work on gigadrive.

Also i guess gigadrive would win because we all went for so long without a really good emulator (exclude fgen as it was a so called 'private' beta).

 

[Tobriand]

Quite possibly... only thing is I can't bring myself to feel it should win simply because, as has been said, its been out too long - I'm used to it rocking. I don't envy the judges having to act completely impartial in working out what's best.

Maybe they should do a survey among non-GP32 users - take a card with the entries on, and let Joe public test em all out and voice an opinion.

Nah...

Edit: This post was about the suggestion that KOF91 should win hands down a few posts back...

 

[smythe]

1.gigadrive of course
2.kof 91
3.Universal Mercenary
4.vertical

only my personal opinion

universal mercenary gets number 3 in my opinion cos its so funny and the grafix are very good and it reminds me very much of one of my old fav's combat school

[c0ncept]

1) gigadrive, good speed but no support for wiz and liz yet

2) numo, porn, puzzles really addictive puzzler

haven't REALLY tried everything yet, i tthink maybe vertical or Xigon would be good


btw I LOVED the opening scenario in unimerc, but the second level (the maze) seems almost impossible to complete, I just can't get the logic.

 

[don]

Thanks for all the kind words on our game Universal Mercenary. About that second level... Most people say it's too easy, only a few say it's too hard. Maybe it's useful when I tell you to look for the bottom right corner of the maze.

 

[The Mole]

I am going to give it a try now Don.

 

[Zen]

Numo is the best imo.

 

[Shirohagen]

Hi Guys, I've tried out the following:

1. GigaDrive - Great work, unbelieveable speed, just needs some development to make it AMAZING!

2. GP Final War - Again, great work, technically very impressive but the gameplay is non-existant so they need to spend some time on that (I think that's exactly what they're doing).

3. gMAME - I'm confused :-(

I'm going through them gradually, thanks to everyone who together have made this a great bank holiday weekend for the GP32!
