I brought a womble pepper mill, but it doesn't work very well ...

... The pepper is either overground or underground...

(โฌ†๏ธ I take no credit for this, but it is the best joke in the world.)

me [for the past 30+ years]: snes music sounds so muffled, and flat, i don't really get it

me [upon clicking on the castlevania iv OST on a lark on youtube]: snes, i owe you an apology, i wasn't familiar with your game

Anyone else ever play a single player game and worry that you're not playing it right? Like, you're progressing well through the game, but somehow you feel like the designers would be disappointed in how you're doing everything? I feel like that with Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker

@heyfluxay haha! Totally know what you mean. Designers diligently putting in complex crafting mechanics and I'm like... Nope... Rooty tooty looty shooty please!

@danielholt has definitely discouraged me sometimes, but with this I'm just doing it my own way ๐Ÿ˜

Enforce (1988)
By Taito
[Source: https://youtu.be/Hejv3NkWw7E]

Gif from "Enforce" (gameplay, 2D pixel graphics, first-person perspective). The player drives a tank at moderate speed along an urban landscape while shooting at bipedal mecha. The tank has two large weapons, each protruding from opposite sides of the screen (the left weapon is a laser cannon, the right weapon is a gatling gun). The player rams two of the mecha with the tank, destroying them.
Gif from "Enforce" (attract mode, 2D pixel graphics, first-person perspective). The "Enforce" logo appears in stylized against a dark background. The screen then shows a detailed schematic of the player's tank, which has a slightly-silly-looking vertical orientation, with tank treads on the bottom used for locomotion. On opposite sides of the tank are its two weapons- a laser cannon on the left, a gatling gun on the right.
Gif from "Enforce" (gameplay, 2D pixel graphics, first-person perspective). The player drives a tank at moderate speed along a desert while shooting at other tanks. The tank has two large weapons, each protruding from opposite sides of the screen (the left weapon is a laser cannon, the right weapon is a gatling gun).

@dinosaurgerms Lol! Omg! He just looks like he ran into the wrong game.

Yelling over the engine noise

" I thought we were playing table tennis?!? Why do you have a tank??"

@Gammitin I had one of these when I was a student. Picture was really sharp iirc... But I don't miss moving it. ๐Ÿ˜…

Anyone anything good at the moment? I'm still on my PSP kick playing MGS Peace Walker which I think is going to keep me busy for a while. Especially as I'm not great at it ๐Ÿ˜ถ.

So happy I picked up a PSP again though. Such a fun console. I maaayyy have also bought Silent Hill Origins. I think that's probably all the games that I definitely want for it, but any suggestions of hidden gems that I should look out for?

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@jaykass I think there's something special about working through a series in order. Seeing that progression and how it grew over time. Pretty cool

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@Bogusmeatfactory hmmmm... I'll have to keep a look out for it. Probably start with the first one though

@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@mforester emulating retro on retro! Retro^2! I wonder how many layers you could do with that?

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@maxalmonte14 I keep seeing it on PSP lists of good games. It's really not the thing I'd normally go for but it does look interesting!

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@mforester I really would love to see how many layers were possible ๐Ÿ˜…

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@repeatro it is a cool system! I picked up the metal gear solid graphic novel for it. And that's just a really novel idea. Kind if a shame that the UMD format didn't gain more traction

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@maxalmonte14 that's it! I'm sold! ๐Ÿ˜. Someone else says "it's not my thing but.... " And I'm gonna have to check it out. Adds it to list of games to look out for

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@repeatro I keep spotting the metal slug collection, and I'm tempted. I know nothing about metal slug, but that SNK style is super appealing. PSP definitely has a good number of ports.

(I mean, I'd like the castlevania game for it, but I'm just gonna assume it's crazy expensive!!)

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@mforester @repeatro I've never played much castlevania, but I think sotn is something I should play

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@trixter just had to search for it and one of the first things I read was "...best suited for the hardcore strategy/RPG crowd..."

I may have to sit this one out! ๐Ÿ˜…

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@ch1pset yeah, I don't think it ever made it off the PSP ๐Ÿค”

eeep! I know what you mean! Backlogs get super long when you start going back through console generations!

What about, handheld console that uses floppy discs?

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@kawaiizenbo tbh that's what made me think of it. Like the PSP is an optical media handheld, so why not a floppy disc handheld?!? ๐Ÿ˜

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@foone do it! I was trying to work out if you could make a kind of self contained pico-8 that loaded directly off floppy ๐Ÿ˜…

Hundstrasse,
@Hundstrasse@retro.pizza avatar

@foone yeah, I think that would be three best way to do it
