Title: RAFFLE: Lords of Thunder US Version
Post by: MNKyDeth on October 29, 2015, 01:09:28 AM
This is for my 200 post anniversary here on the site. The site that has given so much to me in terms of information and even a game Buster Bros.

I will pay shipping to anyone in the lower 48 US and if you live outside this area and are willing to pay the shipping you may enter as well. You also must have a 200 post count or higher in celebration of my 200th post.

So... I happened across a better LoT than the one I have. It had a cd case and manual and no scratches.

So, I am giving away my LoT that has no manual, comes in a generic CD case and is nothing but the disc, with some scratches. It does play, and you can complete the game with it. But the audio will stop playing from time to time when it hits one of the bad spots.

(https://s5.postimg.cc/mcm9z3xgj/DSC00519.jpg) (https://s5.postimg.cc/e8e5udb1f/DSC00521.jpg)

I will draw a winner on Nov 9 2015.

Please post saying "I want to be entered" with at least a 200 post count and I will add you to the list.

Also, please don't sell it, if you are done with it, re-raffle it back to the community so others can enjoy it if you get bored or are done with it, or keep it forever. :)

You are entered Bernie, I think I buffed the hell out of it back when I got it in the late 90's like 96-98 era. I found it at a used game shop for $5 if I recall as non-working. I grabbed a cd-cleaner repair thing and went around on it for a couple hours.

It worked, I was happy, didn't care about the audio skips. Putting more time on it may help, who knows. :)

You are the man, MNKyDeth! Having played the SEGA CD version for the recent Game of the Week thread, I definitely want to play the TG-16 version - the way Hudson meant for it to be played.

So as they say..."I want to be entered"
Title: Re: RAFFLE: Lords of Thunder US Version
Post by: MNKyDeth on October 29, 2015, 03:40:10 AM
You are entered Grolt. It is an amazing game, I have it for SegaCD as well and enjoy both versions. But my Duo always comes before the SegaCD if I have a choice in platforms.
Title: Re: RAFFLE: Lords of Thunder US Version
Post by: Bernie on October 29, 2015, 03:50:00 AM
The Duo version is my choice as well.

Gate's by and far the better game, no doubt. Lords still has its charm, though.

Awesome game, awesome raffle!

LoT was the first game that made my eyes pop out in the era of 16-bit gaming. When I had my first Duo back in 1998 or so, I got a copy of LoT and it was one of 5 games (Riot Zone, Ys 1&2, Keith Courage, and Exile) that I had until I sold the system in 2002.

...I got it again in 2009 or so. From "ol' tin-can ass" in Robot Hell :P  :mrgreen: (thanks again, man), and play it frequently.

so.. exclude me from this raffle, but good on ya for passing along a game that has served you for so long. it will go to good hands.

In spite of Chops post count, he has done a ton here for this community. When I do my raffles, I let some lower post count people in on a case by case basis. Its your call, but if anyone deserves to be in it, it is Chops.

I did some digging, chop5 is in. Plus everyone vouching for him.

Chops is such a nice guy, he refused my offer of modifying his post count to something north of 200.  I thought 2 million would've been funny.

Just tell him you are including chat posts.

please add me, so a can play the game for real.

Title: Re: RAFFLE: Lords of Thunder US Version
Post by: NightWolve on November 08, 2015, 05:49:59 PM
Wow, chop short on posts,  that is impressive

His PCE chatroom posts ought to make up the difference.

Very generous of you MNKyDeth, TurboKarma++ for you, but as I already own a full copy of this game, I yield to the rest of my fellow PCE brothers and sisters. Good luck to the winnah!

Add me please.  I'm sure I could buff the disc.  Awesome waffle!

I saved a few movie DVDs this way. Well, partly. Best if you have the professional equipment, but it can be done.

For me, most of the time, a partly successful buffing job would just let me extract all the sectors with DVDecrypter, and then I could watch it on my PC, or burn a DVD-R for my player in my TV theater center. Getting the original playable itself without skips was tough though... The modern PC DVD drive will be able to extract CRC-checked sectors after a few read-retries with a decent enough DIY buff job, but that was about it for me.

I was too cheap to ever buy the professional equipment, so that's about as good as I could do myself. Just my trusty Makita drill and a $10 buff wheel from Home Depot is how I rolled. :)

Unfortunately, for CD redbook audio data, it's a different story, you'll never know if bytes are wrongly read as there are no CRC checks. The skips happen because the timing data in the 96-bytes of the subchannel data per sector are misread. The 2352 bytes for the audio sectors could get changed by a few bytes here and there, and you'd never know unless it caused a serious hiss or something. Well, you could use those websites that try to record CRCs of tracks from new/good CDs that work with audio software like EAC or whatever. But yeah.
