Quoting: [email protected]Is SPAZ 2 good? What about SPAZ 1?

SPAZ 1 has been on my backlog since I picked it up when it was first introduced to me via the Humble Bundle release. The game is a solid shump/strategy game. The controls take some getting use to but if you are into these too genres meshing it's a fun game. I found the tutorial to be too long in the tooth for my taste but the ideas and story lines behind it kept me interested. I've not ended the game, yet - I have about 6 hours in.

Quoting: GuestHi ! Did anyone compare those versions with the emulator ones, in terms of input lag & video rendering ? Using Lakka/RetroArch + KMS + pixel shaders combinations, one can get amazing results.

The HB versions have the same exact ROMS that are found on the net with the exception of KOF2002 it's the 2nd version from the b model of the arcade release.

Quoting: KayKay91Oh god they have Garou Mark of the Wolves. It is the best god damn fighting game ever made!

It is but the Humble Bundle version is superior.
What makes you say that? They're practically the same aren't they? I just downloaded them both to compare and there's no real difference.

Can you pull the ROM out of the GOG version and use it in MAME?

The Wrapper on the HB version remembers your gamepad without having to initialize it also.

These HB are played heavily in my home on MAME and with the wrapper.

Battle Chasers: Nightwar has silently removed mentions of Linux support a few hours before release (updated)

Hmmm. So I saw the GOG post about the game and wrote about how I would not support this dev after the scam they pulled and my comment was deleted. Now I'm wondering if I should take my business elsewhere and just stick to HB and itch.io.

Maybe I was in the wrong but they could have responded with a line about the latest development that liamdave wrote about.

Caveman Warriors, the rather sweet platformer that supports 1-4 players is now out

I will pick this up when it's on GOG, itch.io or Humble Bundle DRM-FREE.

Linux version of 'The Coma: Recut' removed at release after taking pre-orders

Quoting: crt0mega@jaycee was getting death threats against him and his family while he was working for VP on TW2, IIRC.
Yes, and jaycee is justifiably angry at those childish wankers. But taking it out on the rest of us and pulling the victim card every second time a porter's/dev's work or decisions are criticized is not okay.

That just means he's a celebrity right?

What I don't get is... at what point has civilization degraded so much that support for a video game can cause people to make death threats that you wonder that it's just time to do a 'reset'?

People who make death threats like this should seek professional help. I could see making death threats to child molesters and people who talk in movie theaters. But video game porters?

It's behavior like this, that makes ya think twice about informing new people about your video gaming hobby.

Quoting: TobiSGDHere in Germany, if you advertise a product (like, a game) with features (like, Linux support) it doesn't have, it is punishable by law.

That is beautiful.
