Going to be a weekend of modern gaming for me!

Madden NFL 2003 (2002 EA Sports) - Nintendo Gamecube - Sports (Football)

"Hold Ⓐ button to walk of injury."

My pick this weekend is Doom 64 (the remastered version via Proton, rather than the N64 original), which I've been looking forward to getting started on for a while.

In its day, a lot of people overlooked it because they mistook it for a Nintendo 64 port of the first Doom, but it's not that at all - it's its own unique game that's technically the "true" Doom 3. There's a remastered version available these days which gives options to adjust the far-too-dark lighting, and has various modern quality-of-life niceties, and that's the one that I'm playing.

Doom 64 sees Doomguy facing off against the Mother Demon, which has resurrected all of the forces that had already been slain in the earlier games. Of course, the only way to deal with it is to go back and do more of the same, so that's what you have to do.


I also played the fan-translation of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood (PC Engine Super CD-ROM²) for Halloween, which was good fun.

And if that fails you can just buy a "healing potion" which cures any and all injuries instantly for just 99c........

But is it 64 times better than the original Doom???..... Do the math!......

Ok...... Lets carry on from last week....... Can you do a six degrees on Kevin Bacon from Doom 64 to Bomberman??.........

Its a really good Castlevania game one of my favourites........

Quoting: PenglingWhat's up with the quiz?

Lots of sports games during this time period had quizes in them........ They quite often gave you tokens or points or something if you answered them correctly....... And they would be used to unlock content such as historic teams, uniforms, stadiums and even cheats such as the Big Head cheat I showed last week......

The quiz has long since died out thanks to DLC and Card Pack microtransactions........

Ive honestly NOT seen a GameCube game that hasnt upscaled really nicely...... Dolphin does a fantastic job upscaling thats for sure........ And the art style of the GC and also the PS2 lends itself to upscaling really well.......

Quoting: PenglingHahaha!

I had a feeling you would really like that one......
