Finally started messing around with the DC homebrew/emulation scene

[FrankSerpico]

Filled up 12 cd-rs today of various stuff, mostly either older PC ports like Heretic and Rise of the Triad and arcade stuff like Fighter's History Dynamite and the Simpsons. Any advice those of you who've been into the scene far longer than me have to give on games, or sources for games, I should check out? Some of the ports I got, like the Simpsons and an SvC Chaos beta, are far from arcade perfect but still fun to play. I don't really care that some of these ports aren't arcade perfect because outside of converting my Xbox into an emulation machine I'd never be able to play them at home on a non-PC platform anyway

Simpsons? As in Simpsons Quake?

How about Beats of Rage? Or Propeller Arena?

[FrankSerpico]

^Nope, it's a port of the Simpsons arcade game. It's pretty good, aside from the fact I can't figure out how to play as anyone other than Marge

[thunderkid]

Dont you have to plug the controller into a different slot other than first player to play as the other characters?

[FrankSerpico]

Anyone know of site with divx formatted movies that I can watch on my DC? I found one, this hilarious '80s horror flick called Deadtime Stories, but that's it

Oh wow, Deadtime Stories. Been decades since I saw that movie.

I'd love to know if anyone here has experience with the downloadable Bleem beta that supposedly lets you play most PSX games on your DC

Just curious if you have an Xbox why don't you use it, it's a much better console for emulation.

My Xbox disc drive is on the fritz. Have to bring it into the local used game shop when i have some more money. Also, since I'm lucky enough to have the Ascii FT pad, I much prefer playing stuff like SNK fighters and beat 'em ups like Cadillacs and Dinosaurs on my DC as opposed to the Xbox

So you can't mod it? You can get a drive really cheap, I'm just saying you will have a much bigger selection of games on Xbox. I mod them and own six currently, if you need any help let me know.

[FrankSerpico]

Oh, I can definitely mod it it just needs a new disc drive.

There is a guy on another forum selling them for $15 shipped. If you want a link PM me.

Thank you, sir

[FrankSerpico]

Found an iso of Strider 2 that includes bleem so you don't even need to use a boot disc to play it. Limited replay value for sure, but it's so damn pretty...

[FrankSerpico]

Has anyone come across a Neo4All port of Prehistoric Isle or Prehistoric Isle 2 anywhere?
