Re: 3.5" floppy to usb conversion board thoughts?

I went with the Gotek floppy drive emulator. Its worked well for me so far but requires a bit of setup.

Re: Have some of the usual members left Racketboy forums ?

I wasn't doing retro gaming as much. Work got in the way and I was just playing the odd game on Steam here and there. Recently I was looking for a new ultrawide monitor and got turned off by the lack of decent offerings so I pulled out my trinitron monitor and got it hooked up with retroarch and GOG...

Re: MiSTer FPGA?

I got one a while back. Just with the de10-nano you can do genesis and tg-16 emulation among a number of other systems. I ordered the SDRAM off someone on ebay and can do everything else now. I have to say I am really impressed! The development on this thing hasn't been that long and the number of p...

Re: Playing the entire Metal Gear Saga!

If you aren't feeling it then don't play it. I didn't like the whole stealth thing for years then came back to it. You have to be in the mood for it.

Re: Playing the entire Metal Gear Saga!

I played through most of the series before MGSV came out. I played them in this order: MGS, MGS2, MGS3, MGS4, MGS:PW, MGSV:Ground Zeroes, MGSV:PP. I'll play Revengeance later after I beat PP. My favorite games are the new ones. I really enjoyed MGS2 and MGS4 though. Those are my favorites so far. I ...

Re: Dolphin - The New Era of HLE Audio

The late 90's was a great time for the emulation scene. Everything was still really new and you didn't really care about accuracy and there wasn't a ton of drama. It was just cool to play the SNES on your computer. Things keep trucking along though and although progress has slowed for some emulators...

Re: Finished MGS2, I started playing MGS3 and don't like it

I would venture a little further with 3 to test the waters for Peace Walker, but it doesn't get any better in terms of the issues you've raised. Should Peace Walker be played before or after MGS4? I ended up just watching the movie on Youtube for MGS3. I wasn't dying a lot or having trouble it just...

Finished MGS2, I started playing MGS3 and don't like it

I wanted to play through the Metal Gear games with the new one coming out. I had beaten MGS1 way back when it first came out and bought MGS2 but never finished it. I thought 1 was awesome. It did a lot of stuff that had never been seen before in a game but it was a bit dated even though when it came...
