So are these Retron 5s decent machines? Kind of curious in them now having seen them a few times...

Not a big fan of how the audio is coming out currently, but that could be something on the GB Setup.

Why not just use an emulator (for games which you own). You can play at 60fps for some games and up the rendering to crazy levels so games look awesome. I don't get the appeal.
 
bro hitgirl you never answer my question

Oh, I see it now. It looks very generic to me, which I know isn't a good description. But it just looks like everything is ripped out of different games with different art styles too. Also none of the levels I have seen are colorful, it's a lot of darkishblues.
 
You're making me feel real self-conscious about my WoW-years...
Same. I haven't played WoW in a few years but before I quit, I think I was around 190 days /played on my main, and had four other 80s and a few lower levels I used for low level BGs.

Some peeps just want to use the physical carts with their controller in HD. Yeah I have an ouya with all that stuff emulated, but using the OG controllers is nice.
 
all I know about American Gladiators is that one episode of the Simpsons

and theres only one level

it can be pretty bright and colorful

different characters look different though

it meshes pretty nice in my opinion

Ah, yea. Original controllers is a must.

Whoa, there's only one level?!
 
Aww, c'mon guys. It's actually alright! Guys. Please.

... I just don't wanna practice last hitting anymore! Is that so much to ask?!

i have no words, i would describe HotS as Smash Brothers with out the wave dashing. I don't understand if the game has a meta game at all, the game seems to play itself.
 
You have to switch sides each time Jeff.

I've played this American Gladiators game before, the controls are really awful.

there is a lot of variance in the art but it all seems pretty cohesive to me imo

the different art styles is a huge complaint i have with fucking LoL though so I could see it there

theres only 1 stage though. the darker/blue areas is half of the map (dire side)

the colors on the other side of the map are pretty muted as well but they're not grayscale, either
 
Man Brad needs an intervention for this DOTA stuff. 1k hours? Holy shit.

If you added up all the hours I have spent playing the various versions of sf4 I easily have 4k hours between casual meetups, casuals with friends, tournaments, training mode, and online.

It was more about getting setup on a TV and being able to use the original controllers. I could do the emulator route, but that's on the PC, or using something like an Ouya. (And if I am going to go the Ouya route, at that point why not buy a Retron.)
 
Rain? I haven't played Dota in a couple of months ... did I forget or is that a new environmental effect from the stretch goals?
 
i would rent this game from blockbuster as a kid.
It was always shit and i could never figure out how to do anything.
