Battle of the Ports Series

[KnightWarrior]

I'm thinking of doing a weekly of the Battle of the Ports, or is that a good name?? for example

I will do Game of my choosing, Might be a Fighting Game 1 week..racing game the next week

I won't do just Battle of the Ports Thread & to add the game in like every week, I know that won't crowd up "insert coin" that way..like Joes "Game Sack"

I wan't to focus on 1 game a week , if xxx Game get's active, I won't do one for a while

I think a video series would work best. Maybe if you find someone else, you could make a competitor to Game Sack.

[KnightWarrior]

I don't mean like that guntz..

I don't do Vids anyways...So I just do Post some YT Vids of the Games I'm doing..But there people just joined on this site doing it :-/

YT vids for gameplay comparisons are typically horrible. If you want to do a port comparison I would be happy to do real hardware video comparisons and I would absolutely love requests for specific aspects of the games.

[KnightWarrior]

If I need help sheath, I PM you on the idea...

That looks better at a glance. Side by side HD stuff really doesn't make for great comparisons though. I'm not even happy with what Avid Free DV did to my Wipeout Comparison Videos, but Youtube managed to make them even worse.

-edit-

Also, I remember being shocked back in the day by the PS1 versions of the Street Fighter Alpha games actually slowing down on screen. I didn't notice any of that in this comparison video and don't own either version to check.

It should be noted that his Videos use PAL versions for both consoles. Though Street Fighter Alpha on both systems is almost the same with a few minor differences (Ryu vs Ryu in the intro, slightly smaller sprites, the blue shadows, etc.) It wasn't until the Capcom Fighters that came after the first Alpha game that we start to see the Saturn leap ahead of the PS1. In his Alpha 2 video you can see the slowdowns.

PAL comparisons are only good when comparing two games which were both designed for PAL first and then ported to NTSC.

I have to rethink this, Text Only ..no youtube..Noobs as to spoiled it for me..when they post games I want to talk about

How about Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Starship Bridge Simulator, SNES vs 32X version

They both fail equally...because they don't have this:
