Tomb Raider on 3DO

[awbacon]

I mean shit...that's cool!

 

[Dr Shroom]

Wow, seems to run pretty nicely, I'm surprised.

Made me wish I didn't throw my 3DO away.

*ahem* 3DO SUCKS

it was just ahead of its time a bit too much... but the port is certainly impressive considering the PS version isn't a framerate darling either. In that bridge pass section I feel like the framerate is roughly the same. Could the 3DO have done that? Maybe if it survived a couple of years more.

I wish 3DO got a library like that. I'd like to see a port of Resident Evil in it too, because I'm sure the 3DO would have no technical issues with it considering the prerendered backgrounds.

3DO could handle this stuff. The timing was definitely bad as it got the worst of the 32 bit era before people figured out what worked. Too much FMV garbage..

 

[GutsDozer]

3DO was underutilized. I bet it could have ran Resident Evil like a champ.

Playstation/Sony where treading water all the way to the throne. The 32bit era had too many confused players and just one with a very clear vision as to where things needed to go.
3DO had no chance, even if some more cool games had been made for it. Imo ofcourse

Well I mean it was $700 it has no chance. They werent big enough to subsidized the losses on consoles to make it back in software.

The 3DO was a real piece of shit. It sucked as a 2D system and wasn't powerful enough to do 3D games well either. It's one of the few consoles that doesn't have a single exclusive game really worth going out of your way for today. Road Rash, for example, is better on the PS1 and PC, and it's probably the best 3DO game.

Even shitty systems like the Jaguar at least had ONE good exclusive (the Jaguar Tempest 2000 is still the best version of that game).

Love seeing the stuff you find, keep it up.

Why do you love this but think Street Fighter V on the Megadrive is pointless? Like, WTF? It's essentially the same thing.

Shut the fuck up.

 

[kingcuckmelon1]

Shut the fuck up.

Great argument there. Care to explain to me how porting Tomb Raider to 3DO is different to porting Street Fighter V to Genesis.

 

[LoneSage]

Care to explain to me

No.

 

[kingcuckmelon1]

OK then, I'll explain it to you... if you say converting Tomb Raider to 3DO is 'awesometacular' and say porting Street FIghter 5 to Genesis is 'lamererific' then your not operating on all cylinders.

awbacon posts cool shit, neo_mike_81 does not.

Visually, that is probably the most impressive thing I’ve seen the 3DO do.

I wonder if it would run that well on actual hardware, not on a emulator.

I have a FZ-10 somewhere, when the build is more complete I’ll need to take a look.

I used to have this on Saturn, and later on Ngage. The Ngage version looked and ran like ass, but it felt magic to have a PS1 era game on a phone in 2003.

you really are beyond retarded if you need it explained to you
