Shenmue III has now been funded. Now...where are the HD versions of I and II so I can get into it, Sega?

Tomo.Murphy · 18-07-2015 09:34AM

Boredom in work is bad for my wallet. I was sitting at my desk with nothing to do at about half 7 talking myself into backing the Shenmue 3 kickstarter.

What happens when you combine Sega with pokemon developer Game Freak, and set out to make a new Sonic style game?

Tembo the Badass Elephant, thats what!

I have to say I'm loving the colourful art style, the physics of the destructsble items and the animation.

Going to pick this up on PS4 when its cheap.

Looks fun alright. 18 levels (according to Steam) in the game doesn't sound that many for a platformer though.

Capcom just revealed a new Street Fighter character. It's OUR BOY, Finn Balor Necalli.

Who do you think would deliver faster?

Littlewoods? or
Amazon.co.uk with Parel Motel?

Need to order a TP-link powerline adapter for the PS4 as the download speed is pretty poor in the gamesroom.

I ordered something from Amazon UK on Thursday afternoon, it arrived today (regular normal post).

I ordered something last night from Amazon and it hit the pmotel Dublin depot about 30 mins ago(so not actually in my motel yet)I had it shipped to the UK address.

That's free prime delivery, which is usually quick.

Thanks Steve!

I actually forgot I have the prime free trial so definitely going to go with amazon!

Under my delivery adrress in Littlewoods checkout it says Tuesday 28th of July for some reason, and they claim 4 day delivery!

Corholio · 20-07-2015 06:00PM

Not that big into SEGA stuff, but just trying to figure out something. Are the Mega Drive AC adaptors compatible with the Master System? Also do the models make a difference i.e. Mega Drive 1, Master System 2 etc etc?

Bought a Snes today but can't get the picture on a Samsung LCD tv. I am using the yellow,red and white cable into the scart but still no picture. Works perfect on an old tv.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Tomo.Murphy · 20-07-2015 06:27PM

I remember seeing a few TP Link products on Argos. Might be worth pricing them if you need them in a hurry

Get a proper scart cable. Much better picture quality. However your problem seems to be a lot worse than that. Make sure you are selecting the right av channel. Try it on another tv.

Everything TP-Link device I've bought recently has had faults.
Bought a print server last week and had to return as was dropping off the network after a couple hours and had to be reset, also bought an ADSL router which would randomly reset to factory defaults
I'd spend a little more on even a dlink one

The powerline range are fairly simple devices so should be far less that can go wrong with them compared to routers or print servers.

They've got great reviews and are the best selling product in their category on amazon so I have faith in them.
Ordered it earlier any so no turning back now! :P
The one I bought also has the all important pass-through mains socket which I need and Argos don't stock.
Thanks for the heads up though!

A question for my 60Hz overlord!

Do PAL Wii games run at 50 or 60Hz on a PAL Wii, or is it game dependent?

I'm asking solely about Wii games and not VC or Gamecube games.

I've downloaded RegionFrii for patching the NTSC games, but not sure if that will guarantee 60hz provided they're compatible.

Retr0gamer · 20-07-2015 11:07PM

It depends on the game. Most games are 60Hz but there's a few crappy ones that run in 50Hz with bordering. Madworld is one that is ruined by the PAL conversion.
