You act like I was hard set in believing it was a sound font or something. But if saying "you were wrong" a thousand times gets you off, well, that's your fetish. I never claimed I was "right". I just claimed "that's not what the Genesis version sounds like". And it isn't. So drop it.
Fine joe. I only will admit defeat righ now because I need to get up for work in 7 hours and am going to sleep.
Too much pointless arguing in this thread, it got joe to record that awesome song from sparkster so it was worth it i suppose. The video i posted was clearly emulated and with a slight echo, but so was the SNES one.
You reminded me about "Omen II":Quote:

I'm not saying he is or isn't wrong (I honestly couldn't even be bothered to listen) but there's no need to act like a d#ckhead because you think he's wrong. He's never been rude to you.
As for evildragon being so obsessed about someone being so "wrong" I think the way evildragon has been acting towards joe IS wrong. It's not like joe's being a jerk or an @ss, so lighten up.

LOL I have seen no examples of that type of scaling and rotation that can compare to the real thing on the SNES. The Genesis can't do it at any respectable speed. And when it does do it it's not full screen, full resolution at 60fps like it is on the SNES. Not sure why it would take up a ton of cart space unless they're just storing raw frames/animated tiles into memory and no scaling is actually going on.
Why didn't Sega add chips to their carts as often as th snes? I mean over clocking or sound chips like the famicom did with mr gimmick and so on?Quote:

I don't know how they did it, but I do wonder why it would need as much memory as they claim. I've heard Fonzie claim it takes up "a lot of megs". But I've also heard him claim that simply scaling a 2D screen back and forth, kind of like Castle of Illusion does when the screen flips, but horizontally at the same time would take up all of the MD's processing time and not allow it to do much of anything else while it was being performed. And he's the guy who did the Pier Solar minigame. But still, I think the Castle of Illusion trick (horizontally at the same time) could have been used for scaling title screens or stuff before the level begins. It would have looked cool and maybe even like Neo Geo scaling, but I guess it couldn't be done during actual player interaction. There's a demo out there that has a screen scaling back and forth behind some space ships, but I'm betting that it's animated tiles looping over and over, no actual scaling going on.Quote:
