Title: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: sunteam_paul on June 11, 2006, 07:30:49 AM
I've redesigned the front page a little and have now added the following gameplay videos: After Burner II, Dracula X, R-Type I, Schbibin Man, Space Harrier and Street Fighter II'.
I'll be working on adding a few more this week so keep an eye out.

Looking good man, and I dig the front page with the cute HuCards as well :) . I do hope you enlarge the small screenshot pictures like you mentioned in the other thread, an original resolution size would be really nice. That's up to you though.

Yep, great job so far. And bigger screenshots would definitly help. Although a video is worth a thousand pictures :D

Great stuff Paul! That Rastan Saga II video had me laughing hard! It's just like you and stevek666 described! :lol: I'll have to try it out myself just to say I suffered through the gameplay. :)
Oh, one last thing, on the main page under the updates, the Street Fighter II link goes to Space Harrier. I was able to get to the SF2' video from the Gameplay Videos link in the Omake section though.
Keep up the good work!

Great stuff, I really dig the hucard weblinks.
Just want to point out a minor mistake on KYUKYOKU TIGER (http://pcenginebible.roarvgm.com/HTML_Games/Ultimate_Tiger.htm). You have its AKA as Tiger Heli and it should be changed to the name, Twin Cobra. Tiger Heli is an older game that came out before Kyukyoku Tiger (Twin Cobra).

The AKA is used for names which games are WRONGLY known as, as well as alternate names (i.e. US). For example, The Kung Fu is also known as Drunken Master, even though this is not the name of the game. Ultimate Tiger is often called (incorrectly) Tiger Heli.

Oh, I see, that is pretty neat. The import stores would always get the names of games wrong (sometimes they just made shit up).
I bet there are differences between the names UK vs. French vs. U.S. importers assigned to games.

Good work man, and good luck. I originally started out Turbo2k many years ago with the idea I'd have all the screenshots done as well, and at least 2 done per game. I've gotten to the point where I think I'm around 95% complete, however I've virtually given up. If you can do 'em all, my hats off to ya :)

Ooo, are they all full resolution, clean png or gif grabs? What I need is title screen and one in game shot for anything I'm missing. I really need to get a list up of the priority games (not having pics of countless mah jong games worries me less than not having some for Sapphire for example).

This one was a bit of a nightmare. Because of the rate your bullets flash, half the time they were showing up blank on the video. Took a couple of retries to fix it. Still a couple of glitches in there though.

did you try out some different framerates for the capturing? i think with 15, 30, 60fps you will get the best result.^^"
Title: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: sunteam_paul on July 14, 2006, 04:01:14 AM
I capture at 50fps which is no problem. The issue is with editing afterwards. I use Windows Movie Maker which kind of limits the options for exporting, but a few tweaks and it's usually OK.

Wow, I never realised that Faussete Amour was so slow. I like the Bionic Commando gameplay though. The transparent water effect looks very cool with the nice gradient in the sky being revealed. The graphics look a lot better than I've been led to believe from the few available screenshots online. It looks like fun and that it would make a great game with tighter(from what I've heard) gameplay.
Thanks a lot for the video! :)
Title: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: Keranu on October 15, 2006, 07:48:27 PM
Haha, yeah Fausette Armour looks ridiculously slow. I totally wasn't aware of the Bionic Commando-style hook though so that makes me pretty interested in the game now. I also love how her armour comes off when she gets hit. As slow as it is, it looks like a pretty fun game overall.
Title: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: sunteam_paul on October 15, 2006, 10:26:02 PM
I need to put some time into it to make a proper judgement, but it's pretty good. It can be frustrating if you try to rush it as you end up dying if you're not looking where you're going. I didn't capture her spin jump on the vid unfortunately, that's a handy little move and gets you up platforms a bit quicker.
Title: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: sunteam_paul on October 17, 2006, 04:45:18 AM
Dragon Half actually looks pretty cool. I was alawys turned off, because the idea of trying a japanese board game is intimidating. If it were in english, I'd fire it up right now.
Barumba is yet another game I've always meant to play(like Ordyne) but always forget to. The graphics look way better than I expected. It also appears that Barumba is another VHD shooter that predates Lords Of Thunder by years. :P
Salamander looks as good as I hoped it would. Life Force is one of my favorite NES games and was one of the very first games I bought brand new on my own. I got the HuCard like 7 years ago, but have never had the discipline to play through farther than my first death.

I'll finish it first before I upload it. I think 6 months is probably underestimating the time it will take actually. Erm when you consider there are almost 600 games listed the chances of me doing 2 games a day, every day until then are a little remote. Of course some days I can get through 3 or 4, a weekend quite a few, but with looming MMORPGs I'm unlikely to keep up the speed for that long. The podcast will continue as planned, at least for most of the year (undecided if I will still be doing it next year).

It also allows me to ramble on and on blogstyle about stuff, cry about all the work to do and cover scans I still need and have pictures of PCE games fading in and out which is always nice.

This is very nice!
Please though, don't ever re-design your site again. To the average user, seeing their favorite sites being re-designed just means months and months of no visible updates or in many cases total down time. Also, you never know when the site owner is going to just decide it wasn't worth it and just give up on the site all together because the redesign turned out to be a bigger job than originally though.

Please though, don't ever re-design your site again. To the average user, seeing their favorite sites being re-designed just means months and months of no visible updates or in many cases total down time. Also, you never know when the site owner is going to just decide it wasn't worth it and just give up on the site all together because the redesign turned out to be a bigger job than originally though.
So, like I said, I love it. Now don't ever change it again! :wink:
Firstly I will never, ever give up on the site :) It's consumed over 10 years of my life in various forms and it's my little baby.
Second, I don't think I'll ever do a major redesign again. This one was essential to convert the crappy on format constructed using layers in a really old version of Dreamweaver to something that is far easier for me to update and far less likely to foul up in different browsers. So there's no need to worry! :wink:

Thanks for helping me out a bit, Sunteam_Paul. I have responded to your previous comment to me on your video about some of my thoughts on the new website. I'll kinda miss the old design now that I've browsed around the website a bit more, but I hope that the further enhancements to this design will improve it to an even greater deal. My only major complaints are the lack of the Omake section (currently), and the External Links for the games (though I see that some of them may present more information on signifcant objects in them, I, personally, wouldn't highly trust Wikipedia to be a good source to present accurate information on any items, though it is an ultimate one in this sense; Though it has much the same information presented as it, I prefer the website Answers.com (http://www.answers.com/) as an Internet encyclopedia, mostly due to the interface). Other than that, I'm glad that you've gotten the update going at last.

Other than that, I'm glad that you've gotten the update going at last.
The Omake section is gone for good now. With the aim of having many of those 'omake' features as standard for game entries as I add to the site, the section becomes pretty much redundant as time goes on. There seems little point in relisting every game that has a video (which you can get to via YouTube anyway) or a game cover scan. Best to just look up the games you are interested in and see what is there.
There are two features of the external links. The first is to supply outside information related to the game, such as fan sites etc. The second (and this is particularly relevant for those swarms of games with no specific websites for them) is for me to just be a bit random by creating some very tenuous links to something completely different. Strangely enough, while looking for many of these I've found a lot of interesting sites, so it's worth giving some of them a look.
Regarding Wikipedia, it's very fashionable to poo-poo it as a source of completely innacurate information. But it's the most well known site of its type and it does contain a lot of truthful information within it. It's up to the user whether they wish to use it or not, I decided it's better to give them that choice than to leave it off completely.

I see. That was my favorite section of the website, and I went there often to listen to a few tunes from the games (even with an echo effect in the HuCard music) or look at their photos. At least the music videos from YouTube have been put up on there.
I am aware that Wikipedia can have correct information, and I won't try to stop anyone from using it as a source, but as its entries can be written by anyone, I often try to avoid it for reading about certain objects. Therefore, I'll just completely ignore it on your website; at least it's not featured on every page, anyway.

From the links possible to get to it, I still had the older homepage appearing oftentimes (though this can be fixed by clicking the "HOME" button on it). I use Internet Explorer 7.0 for the computers, which AOL 9.1 is used for the Gateway 560GE model and AOL Desktop 10.0 is used for the Sony VIAO NR Series notebook (the Wii browser has yet to be tested).
I have also noted a few other issues that occurred within the website:
When trying to access the links from the "Why not try..." section from Bonk's Revenge, the pages were unable to be found with the exception of Bonk's Adventure. The pages themselves work fine, and the links to the rest of the games work just fine, also.
On the Bari Bari Densetsu page, tires is spelled as "tyres" in the "Overview" section. I'm not sure if this is just an English language variant (such as the English Added U (favourite) and the Switched Around Ending R and E (metre)), but I thought it would be needed to point this factor out.
On the Dragon Spirit page, the link to see a larger version of the Japanese cover art is unable to found.
This may not be a problem relating to your website, but the link to see the dragon pictures that is found for the "External Links" for Dragon Spirit and Dragon Knight II are unable to be found. The Famous Dragons link for Dragon Knight III was not located in the website itself (it's a shame, too; I was excited to view these pages :|).
I'll let you know of any more problems that I encounter from the website.

The old home pagef appearing has to be an issue with your browser's cache as it doesn't physically exist on the server any more (deleting temporary internet files should solve this).
The PC Genjin 2 link problem has been fixed. Some strange Dreamweaver bug it seems caused that.
Tyres is the British spelling, yes :)
The Dragon Spirit cover works for me, it may have been a temporary glitch.
The two external links have been changed as it seems those other sites are broke/not working properly. I guess I can expect a few of these considering how long this has taken me.

Thanks a lot, and you're welcome :). The current home page has been appearing more often now, and The Dragon Spirit cover art had been working for since I tried it after addressing the problem.
I have found that the screenshots submitted by Glenn Percival for the unreleased Fantasy Star Soldier are unable to be found. It's a severe circumstance since they are perhaps the only type of information that can for this US version of Star Parodier.
I'm not sure if you've meant to do the linking in the current way or not, but shouldn't the "Ys III Shrine" website be linked from Ys III: Wanderers From Ys, and the "Legacy of Ys" site under Ys IV: The Dawn of Ys? This just requires a simple switcharound, but I feel it would be best suitable for the two games.
Rated and expanded overview and comments for Operation Wolf. Gameplay videos added for Darius Plus, Dead Moon, Kyūkyoku Tiger and Legend of Dekoboko.
You've already uploaded an of the Darius Plus video that you have over a year ago, just to inform you (the machine level portion of the original gameplay collection was missing in the newer one). It may be needed that the newer one would have to be removed, for the sake of convienience.

THANKS :D :D :D! I was wondering if I helped out enough to make significance in contributing to the site (I thought an item needed to be submitted in directly to it for that, such as information or a review). If you ever need to double-check to see if you have a YouTube video of a game already, you can always use the search feature on your "Videos" section, or look through the ones put up already on your own.
I would like to see the gameplay videos for the Bomberman games (maybe Bomberman Panic, as well) that were released for the PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16. If music sample videos can be requested, too, I'd like to see the ones for the Bonk series, Star Parodier, Super Darius, and Turrican.

Thanks a lot for what you've done so far, Sunteam_Paul :). There are a few more things that I want to tell you, though:
I love how it's recommended in the "Why not try.." section for Artist Tool to use a pencil and paper instead :P (that joke could even be extended to mention Microsoft Paint and Mario Paint for the Super Nintendo, too :mrgreen:). It is stated on top of its page that the release date was on October 18, 1991, though; the game's copyright information has it for 1989.
For Terraforming, the Overview states it to be a biological shooter, but it's more of a seismic one since the levels are based on earthly locations. A rephrasing can be done this.
I'm thinking about using some of the pictures provided on your website to clip screenshots for making monthly avatars. If this is okay with you, I'll provide the credit/source on the "New Avatar Apreesh Thread (http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=5397.0)" when possible. If not, I'll look for other sources to use for new icons.
Title: Re: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: sunteam_paul on September 08, 2008, 05:29:19 AM
Fixed date.
I see where you are coming from with Terraforming, but the game is heavily based on shooting many biological creatures in their early stages on the terraformed world. So we're both right really.
Feel free to make avatars from my screenies.

ADVENTURE ISLAND Typo - "Taking more of its influence from the second game....."
AI - CHO ANIKI Link to 'Visual Scenes - Opening' is dead.
ANKOKU DENSETSU Typo - "and maybe a little more ROM on the HuCard" - I know it's nitpicky, but shouldn't RAM be ROM?
APPARE! GATE BALL Typo - "...members of your team are chosen..." Typo - "...guaranteed to be frustratingly better than you are..."
ART OF FIGHTING Typo - "(think Street Fighter II's Hadouken)" - according to various intrawebz sources anyway, so take this with a grain of salt.
ASTRALIUS Typo - "You are a flute playing hero..."
GENPEITOMADEN Page is the old format with bad pictures. This should be remedied as soon as possible, as the world's greatest game deserves better. :)

I had no idea that you were able to see a view counter for each of the pages! Also, is it possible to know the individuals who looked at your webpages :wink:?
I have a few more errors that I can across from the website, all which were different from the ones Necromancer pointed out from before:
There are no links available to see a larger version of the front covers for Dungeon Explorer II and Darkwing Duck (for Darkwing Duck, though, I have a feeling that you thought that it was too simple to have one).
For The Addams Family, the word "are" is missing from the third sentence in the "Comment" between "sprite" and "basic." The word "digitized" is spelled correctly for the "Digitized Pictures" link, but an "s" replaced the "z" for both the website title and webpage (I'm tired of seeing this, along with other spelling and grammar errors that appear frequently, on the Internet)!
I thought this error was a little humorous, but the release date in Japan for Alien Crush is put as September 14, 1998. This same typo had also happened with Jaseikin Necromancer.
Also, it might be a good idea to put a capital "G" for the TurboGrafx-16 on the front page description of the PC Engine; that was the way the system was officially spelled.

Almost! There are an awful lot of statistics with Google Analytics.

These are intentional. Not all games have larger cover images because I don't have high enough quality scans for them.
For The Addams Family, the word "are" is missing from the third sentence in the "Comment" between "sprite" and "basic." The word "digitized" is spelled correctly for the "Digitized Pictures" link, but an "s" replaced the "z" for both the website title and webpage (I'm tired of seeing this, along with other spelling and grammar errors that appear frequently, on the Internet)!
Sorted. British English tends to use 's' more than 'z' for words like this but in this case it should have been 'z' and I got myself confoozed.

There are no links available to see a larger version of the front covers for Dungeon Explorer II and Darkwing Duck (for Darkwing Duck, though, I have a feeling that you thought that it was too simple to have one).
These are intentional. Not all games have larger cover images because I don't have high enough quality scans for them.
For The Addams Family, the word "are" is missing from the third sentence in the "Comment" between "sprite" and "basic." The word "digitized" is spelled correctly for the "Digitized Pictures" link, but an "s" replaced the "z" for both the website title and webpage (I'm tired of seeing this, along with other spelling and grammar errors that appear frequently, on the Internet)!
Sorted. British English tends to use 's' more than 'z' for words like this but in this case it should have been 'z' and I got myself confoozed.
I thought this error was a little humorous, but the release date in Japan for Alien Crush is put as September 14, 1998. This same typo had also happened with Jaseikin Necromancer.
Also, it might be a good idea to put a capital "G" for the TurboGrafx-16 on the front page description of the PC Engine; that was the way the system was officially spelled.
Fixed and fixed.
Great :)! I guess using an s instead of a z is not as big of an error as I thought? I had not known that for English spelling before.
Updated: Added wallpapers for CD Denjin and Space Fantasy Zone.
That Super Air Zonk wallpaper looks great! The Space Fantasy Zone one is quite good, as well.
I have just one more error I've noticed that I've forgotten to put up last night: The link to Ballistix on the "B" page links to Baby Jo the Superhero, thus making two links to the former game on that same page. The ones going to this game in the "Why not try" sections of various titles have worked fine, as far as I know.

BARI BARI DENSETSU Typo - "...maybe if you're a biking nutter..."
BATMAN Typo - "Graphics are well drawn - suitably dark and moody..."
BATTLE ACE Typo - "Quite how a company like Hudson had the nerve to release this trash is beyond me." - I don't think even the King's English would approve of this one.
BISHOJO SENSHI SAILOR MOON Fan site link is invalid. If you're interested in a replacement, here's the 'official' fan site: http://sailormoon.channel.or.jp (http://sailormoon.channel.or.jp/).
BOMBER MAN Link to US Cover has gone the way of the 404.
BROWNING Typo - "...and have prepared and have prepared a mobile weapon..." - I checked the case liner and the original engrish does not repeat.
BUILDERLAND Index page link goes to old format page.

OK. It had worked for me now when I switched computers.
I've noticed some odd phrasing whilst reading the Cadash overview. In the second sentence, there is a mention of "there mush much gnashing of teeth." There can be multiple ways to restate it, but one particular way I can think of is "and there was much mushing and gnashing of teeth from Barlog."

Strange.... I don't recall any sled dogs in Cadash. :lol:
Anywho... here's a handful of other possible errors:
The names in the Turbo version are Baarogue and Princess Sarasa of Deerzar; it should be spelled as Balrog for the PCE version, though it wouldn't surprise me if it were misspelled in game or in the manual.
Typo - "Naturally the population descended into chaos..."
Typo - "...and the priest uses a mid-ranged holy mace of head-cracking." - to match the tenseness used elsewhere.
Typo - "...these skills are accessed by holding down the attack button."

"Mushing" could refer to squishing, not telling dogs to pull a sleigh. The word "mushing" can be removed entirely to form a sensible sentence, as well.

There just needs to be an adjective between "quite" and "how" and get rid of , or just remove "Quite" altogether. It just depends on the context. But from what I gather you are trying to say, I would suggest getting rid of "Quite" and start the sentence off with "How":
i.e. "How a company like Hudson had the nerve to release this trash is beyond me."
or with an adjective, thought I don't think this fits with what you are trying to say. "Quite disheartening how a company like Hudson could release this trash."

CD DENJIN Typo - "...backing into an enemy is more likely to dispose of them than do you any permanent damage." Typo - "...Super Air Zonk is a lot like the first game..." Typo - "...standard shooting action we've all seen before."
CHASE HQ Typo - "Once the offending criminal is taken in for questioning..." - perhaps 'crim' is acceptable slang, but I've never heard it before. External link for 'Police Chase Videos' is dead.
CHINA WARRIOR Typo - "...which it probably was at the time." Typo - "...because of its place in the history of the console..." External link for 'Southern Tiger Kung Fu' is incorrect; here's the correct address: http://www.shaolin.com/StyleContent.aspx?Style=Tiger.
CHO JIKU YOSAI MACROSS 2036 Typo - "Choosing to move on with a new story..."
CHO JIKU YOSAI MACROSS - ETERNAL LOVE SONG Why not try... link to 'Master of Monsters' instead leads to 'Nectarsis'.
CLOUD MASTER Typo - "...this takes the shoot 'em up genre and puts it into a fantastical ancient Chinese setting." Typo - "...sending you back to the last restart point in the level."
COBRA II - THE LEGEND OF MEN Typo - "The cigar chomping hero returns in another space adventure."
COLOR WARS Typo - "Includes an adventure mode and a 4-player party mode."
COLUMNS Typo - "Sega’s gem dropping gem dropping game keeps things simple. Rotate the coloured jewels as they fall down screen..."
CORYOON - CHILD OF DRAGON External link for 'The Life of a Dragon' is incorrect; here's the correct address: http://www.draconian.com/special-life1/life.php.

I really appreciate all the effort in letting me know all these errors. Thank you.
Some of them make me mad with myself as I know better than to use it's instead of its for example and this annoys me when other people do it! I have a real mental block with Cyber City Oedo. I've been aware of it since I saw about the anime in Newtype years ago, but my brain always wants to type Odeo for some reason.
'Crim' is primarily British slang for criminal, although you don't hear it much (except occasionally in Judge Dredd comics).

I feel the same way when I see some of the spelling errors made often on the Internet, and I do get kinda disappointed when I make simplistic one myself.
I think I just noticed that some of the single-missing-word spelling errors could be due to a sort of slang used in the English language. For instance, in the second sentence of the overview for Bikkuri Man World/Wonder Boy in Monster Lair, the word "of" is missing between the letters "perfect" and "a", making the phrase "...perfect a conversion as you're likely to get." Sometimes people do say these in normal circumstances, as I recall, but this, I believe, relates to drabbing on words or a southern-USA type of speech. Don't try to feel too bad about little errors like those, if you do feel humliated by them; sometimes they are appropriate for some levels of communications (but it is always best to speak as intelligently as possible, too; it would be good to fix the error mentioned above).

You sure are giving me a bit of a workload there, Sunteam_Paul. Good work on the footages, as usual. I'm particularly thankful for the Pac-Land, Hana Taka Daka!?, and Panic Bomber one since they were most helpful.
I have noticed a few errors in the Populous entry, though. The game was listed to be released on April 5, 1991, but the games copyright date states that it was made in 1989 (the same type of error that was present in Artist Tool). There is a context error in the phrase "More houses means more people" for the Overview; since the subject is plural, the linking verb(?) must be singular for coherency. What system was the original game on (stating this will help provide necessary detail to the readers who are just learning about the game)? "God" may need to be capitalized also.

The original games (Amiga, ST, and PC) were released in 1989, hence the early copyright date.

I sometimes name the original format, but the Wiki link down the bottom of the page (yes I know you distrust Wikipedia) should provide more than enough information for those who wish to research it further.

I was running out of characters when I was trying to ask about this on the Coryoon gameplay video, but what had happened to the pictures of the options screens that were in the "Omake Images" section of the older version of the website? They really were lovely pictures, as I remember you addressing them as, too.
I was surprised from the Kato Chan and Ken Chan overview that you knew two terminologies for fecalation ("letting one rip" and "taking a dump"). I never though anyone outside of America (let alone my own father, since he uses them quite frequently) was aware of them...Did you listen to American comedies, by any chance :-"?
NOW, I really like to hear a music video for Timeball/Blodia, since from hearing the "techno" track present in the gameplay video for it, and there looks to be several music choices possible, I would like to hear the other music pieces sound like. A gameplay video of Battle Royale would be nice, also; Looking at the screenshots, I've been interested to see how it plays.

GENPEI TOMA DEN Typo - 'Try It' rating is clearly a mistake. :lol:
To each his or her own, Necromancer [-X. I remember him giving this game about 3 meats out of 5 on the older version of the website. If he thinks it's a decent game, then he has no reason to change it.
I, too, owe my credentials to Sunteam_Paul. From his videos and website, I've learned a lot about a number of PC Engine and TurboGrafx-16 games, and a good number of the games I wanted to play were determined from these. I can't fully determine what my knowledge and game wantings would be if it weren't for them:).
I have a few questions for you, if you're reading this, Sunteam. I've noticed that for the "Note About the Game Title" section of the PC Denjin/Bonk's Adventure entry that the statement about his US name was changed from "ignoring Bonk all we can" to "before US marketing bods came up with 'Bonk.'" I seem to remember the former statement being present after the website had been updated. How long ago was it changed, and what was the purpose behind it (I have a feeling that it might had to do with "being appropriate").
In the gameplay video for Bonk's Adventure, was there some sort of "turbo" feature used in it? It seemed that there were some aerial flips that were done too quickly for the normal human to perform (especially during the bonus round requiring this; does Magic Engine support turbo features, even for the Japanese version, assuming that there were none available on the controllers for the PC Engine?). As far as I can determine, there doesn't seem to be anything too different about the way Bonk looks in the video from the US version (which made me wonder a bit if the video after the title screen was from the American version).
How were you able to record the music for Alien Crush, also? I haven't found any sound test cheat codes for the game (though there is one available for Devil's Crush). Does Magic Engine have a feature that allows to listen to the music in games in spite of a lack of a sound test within the actual game (I don't highly know about this emulator, but I have heard slightly about a feature like this).
Just to give you a reminder, I'm still waiting for a gameplay video of Battle Royale and the other two Bomberman games, and also music videos for the Bonk series.

The little laughing smiley makes it pretty obvious that I was joking and wasn't expecting Paul to change Genpei's rating. Perhaps you're unaware of the concept of 'joke', so here's a definition for you:
Joke – noun 1. Something said or done to provoke laughter or cause amusement, as a witticism, a short and amusing anecdote, or a prankish act. 2. Something that is amusing or ridiculous, esp. because of being ludicrously inadequate or a sham; a thing, situation, or person laughed at rather than taken seriously; a farce. 3. A matter that need not be taken very seriously; a trifling matter.

Probably different spellings/translation; the bible has many titles conveniently listed under their various different names, making 'em easy to find if you don't know their 'proper' title (such as Art of Fighting instead of just Ryuko no Ken). What were you looking for on PCECP?

After looking over PCECP some more, it looks like the PCE Bible might have more games, or possibly just several that aren't in the PCECP. I tried looking up games from the list I made up and couldn't find nearly half of them. Maybe the spelling is just different? No idea.
Probably different spellings/translation; the bible has many titles conveniently listed under their various different names, making 'em easy to find if you don't know their 'proper' title (such as Art of Fighting instead of just Ryuko no Ken). What were you looking for on PCECP?
Necro is correct. I list many games under alternative names, even incorrect names that you might know them by to make it easier to locate them. I'm also pretty sure that PCECP lists more games than my site, although I do list unreleased titles that it doesn't have.
Now to answer some of Kirby's questions:
Quote from: Game and Watch Kirby
I have a few questions for you, if you're reading this, Sunteam. I've noticed that for the "Note About the Game Title" section of the PC Denjin/Bonk's Adventure entry that the statement about his US name was changed from "ignoring Bonk all we can" to "before US marketing bods came up with 'Bonk.'" I seem to remember the former statement being present after the website had been updated. How long ago was it changed, and what was the purpose behind it (I have a feeling that it might had to do with "being appropriate").
I've made some minor and other major adjustments to wording and phrases to a lot of pages. I believe my thinking behind this change was partly because the initial version sounds a little dismissive, and partly because I like the word bod. It is also a clever way to hide my foaming hatred for the name 'Bonk'. (Did I say that out loud?)
Quote from: Game and Watch Kirby
It seemed that there were some aerial flips that were done too quickly for the normal human to perform
Pish and tish! Although there is always the option for rapid-fire switches in ME and on the PCE pad, manual rapid fire is a minor skill of mine, although I doubt I could ever beat The Master (http://www.tokyomango.com/tokyo_mango/2008/09/takahashi-meiji.html).
Quote from: Game and Watch Kirby
How were you able to record the music for Alien Crush, also?
There are many hacked music-only rips of games floating around the internet, or so I am told 8)
Quote from: Game and Watch Kirby
Just to give you a reminder, I'm still waiting for a gameplay video of Battle Royale and the other two Bomberman games, and also music videos for the Bonk series.
I'll probably do the PC Kid ones soon, maybe Bomber Man too. Don't hold your breath for Battle Royale, it's hard to force myself to play it.
And Genpei is rubbish is a cool way, not in a crappy way like Deep Blue, so it well deserves that rating. In fact, it might be the best naff game on the system.

My list has all the different names the title is under. When I looked them up, I used one, then the other, sometimes going so far as to remove words in the hopes of getting a hit, still with no luck. For instance, Faerie Dust Story (I think is the English translation of the name), I tried that, I tried the original Japanese and I try spelling it "Fairy" with no luck. Again, I'm sure some of it is that it's only listed in the Japanese name on PCECP and people tend to spell Japanese names differently in romanji all the time ("what, is that with like two u's and four r's?") so that's probably what the problem was. But I also don't remember seeing some of the titles when I went browsing either, but that also doesn't mean much. I didn't spend as much time going over everything on there like I did on PCE Bible.

PCECP lists it as 'Meikyu no Elfeene'. I can understand the problems with names, which is why I have the alternatives (and a handy search box on the home page).

Thank you so much for putting up the footages :pray:. I guess you consider P.C. Kid's US name sounding a little ridiculous (do you like the European name B.C. Kid, though)? Playing Bonk's Adventure again after posting before, I did find it would be somewhat possible to press the buttons very rapidly in order for Bonk to perform flips and jumps quickly (but it's hurts the thumbs a little). Oh. You mean like the ones Paranoia Dragon (http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=2440.0) has :wink:? I can see 8).
No problem for Battle Royale. You can make videos out of it whenever you're ready. I just wish to see how the game plays out in its five-player wrestle matches. I have a few other requests too: I would like to hear music videos for Ordyne and Shockman/Schbinin Man 2, and if you can, I would like to see gameplay footage for Godzilla (perferably with King Ghidora in action in Vs. mode :D). I'd love to see how this looks (and maybe contrast it to other Godzilla games, too).
I've caught a spelling error in Alien Crush. In the second sentence for the Overview, the word "modeled" is spelled with two L's. Double-checking in Microsoft Word, it is meant to be written with only one.

I much prefer B.C. Kid, it's far closer to the name PC Kid and makes sense.

No, not music downloads, but ROMs that run on an emulator that just play the audio (music / sound effects) from the games.

I don't have a sound test or music only ROM for Schbibin Man 2 which is a shame as there is no easy way to get the music other than recording it off the game in action. That's something that I'll have to consider.

Is it just me, though, or is the Alien Crush cover a bit crooked (it looked straight to me in the scan ](*,)). I see that The Legendary Axe and The Legendary Axe II still have their "color errors", but I guess they weren't a big enough deal to affect the image :P. You done a great job patching up the crevices on Ninja Spirt 8).
If that's the case, then I might be able to scan the insides of US manuals for you. You are accepting US manuals for this, correct? There are some nice-looking drawings of the enemies for the back page of Dungeon Explorer.
What about the scans for the actual HuCards/TurboChips? Do you have plans for these sometime soon? I'd be more than happy to scan them (even their backside message) for you if you need them.

I've double checked the Alien Crush cover and it is bang on straight, so it must be an optical illusion.
My priority in manuals is Japanese originals, but there is no reason that I couldn't add US alternatives as well. The scans for these need to be 150dpi, so I would suggest anyone else scan them at 300dpi and send them to me uncropped and untouched if possible (scanning as double page spreads except front and back covers which need to be individual).
I have in the past considered scanning both HuCARDs and CDs, but at the moment that's not something I will be adding soon as there are too many other gaps that I have to fill first.

On top of that, I've noticed something strange on the Yo, Bro entry. For the Maker information, it was put as "ICOM/CAMP CALIFORNIA." As I recalll, there isn't a developer by the name of Camp California, but it was a game that was made by the same company. If it was meant to be a reference to the other game, it's probably best to put it in the Overview in a sentence ("US made skateboarding action game from the creators of Camp California").

Sunteam! I thought of a couple of more footages that I would like to see presented!
Now that you've gotten a gameplay video of Godzilla made, I would like to hear its soundtrack, also, if you're able to retain it on your own (seeing that the Toho Kingdom (http://www.tohokingdom.com/cd/godzilla_blegends_turbo.htm) only lists the tracks for it, I wanted to hear the other music pieces, too).
I'm trying to write down all of the lyrics for It Came from the Desert's main theme (http://www.superpcenginegrafx.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31&sid=f2e9c8478ea52ab496c7f6f31c7dc44c), but had recently learned a full version of it plays during the credits. If you can, would you record the entire song within a PC Engine Music video, along with other tracks? It would be greatly appreciated.

Post by: sunteam_paul on October 17, 2008, 11:38:15 PM

OK, thanks for letting me know :). I guess all I need to do now for that is to correct any of the lyrics that I cannot understand properly. However, to make it complete, putting up the shortened version of the song can be helpful.

I've been thinking a little bit lately: since you've done a soundtrack for The Legendary Axe II, would you be able to upload the music for The Legendary Axe, also. I'm planning on getting to this game sometime soon, as I've been curious of what its other tracks sound like.
I've been listening to some of the music pieces of Splatterhouse last night, also. I was wondering if you'll be able to put up tracks for the PC Engine game also (would be good to put up for Halloween, also :wink:).

Splatterhouse is doable, just not in time for Halloween. Unless I can find a music rip or sound test for Legendary Axe, that is less likely to happen, which is a shame as it's really nice music.

More errors to quash:
21 EMON Typo - "Without those, and despite its adequate presentation..."
TALES FROM THE MONSTER PATH Typo - On the index page, the title is missing a space between Monster and Path.
TERRAFORMING Typo - In the page title, Terraforming is missing the letter 'a'.
THUNDER BLADE Typo - "...NEC Avenue hasn’t done a bad job..."
TIME CRUISE II Typo - "Time Cruise II tries very hard to..." Typo - "The play area is very large but is also lacking in..."
THE TOWER OF DRUAGA Typo - "Case in point, in floor 2's chest are the hyper boots..." Typo - "The PC Engine version added a nice bit of flavor from its sequel..." Typo - "You either love it or hate it..." Typo - "I personally love it, even though its learning curve is steep and its RPG elements..." Typo - "...and compare it to other games that were at during it's release..." <-- Er, say that again slowly and in English please. :-s ..... :)
TRICKY Typo - May I suggest "It uses passwords, which are essential, to jump levels." or "It uses passwords to jump levels, which is essential." or something else entirely.
ULTRABOX NO. 6 Typo - In the page title, it mistakenly says Ultrabox No. 5.
VALIS III External Links - Valis Reviews link is no longer valid. The crazy pirate that ran that website has lost his Turbo soul. :(

I thought "beat 'em up" was more for games like Streets of Rage and "fighter" or "fighting game" was for one-on-ones.
Hmm, not from where I come from, it's pretty interchangeable. I would usually use 'scrolling beat 'em up' to describe a Double Dragon style of game.

I really like how it's organized, mostly. Not that I'm asking you to change yours to match, but it's most nifty feature is that you can list/search games by title, year of release, publisher, or genre.
I realize that would be a lot of work, but could you try it? pweeeese? :pray:

Hmm. I don't have much information on those girly ones (in fact I've never heard of them), are they unofficial in the way of 'Games Express' titles? (I'll do a search myself when I have 5 mins spare).
The others are fan produced games and I've considered this before. At the moment my opinion is on the side of them being too far from official and 'of the time' to be listed, but I'm happy to hear arguments to add them.

They're similar in function, but they were programmed specifically for the Duo, booting like a game rather than through the CD+G option of the CD player. CD+G's probably would've been better, as then you'd at least have some tunes to enjoy while ogling pixelated boobies.

1. Ghouls n Ghosts 2. Adventure Island 3. Dracula X 4. Ankoku Densetsu 5. Winds of Thunder
My master of the obvious thoughts on the matter:
1. Ghouls n Ghosts - A popular "classic" franchise that folks are interested in, across platforms. 2. Adventure Island - Ditto 3. Dracula X - Ditto, plus Castlevania fans are ravenous for info on everything :) 4. Ankoku Densetsu - Hmmmmmm, confined to the PCE universe, this must be generating interest simply because it is a damn fun game. 5. Winds of Thunder - shoot-em-up fans know that the Sega-CD version can't compare.

The scooter game is in Ultrabox 2. I have Ultrabox-fatigue from playing No.1 so much so I'm taking a couple of weeks off before I start work on number 2. I've not come across any exceptional chip music so far, but then I played No.1 to death so I'm kind of sick of the sound of it now!

Ha! Ultrabox-fatigue, indeed. Keep your ear open for any music :)
For some stupid reason, I liked the scooter minigame (Lord knows why). I'm gonna pull that bad boy out--who knows, maybe I'll play some Yo' Bro! as well.
Hey, maybe I just like scooter/skateboard games?
Too bad the scooter game controls better than Yo' Bro!

Any plans of adding Hawaiian Island Girls, Bikini Girls, The Local Girls of Hawaii, Implode, and Meteor Blaster DX to the bible, or are they not 'official' enough?
Hmm. I don't have much information on those girly ones (in fact I've never heard of them), are they unofficial in the way of 'Games Express' titles? (I'll do a search myself when I have 5 mins spare).
The others are fan produced games and I've considered this before. At the moment my opinion is on the side of them being too far from official and 'of the time' to be listed, but I'm happy to hear arguments to add them.
But let's convince him otherwise -
C'mon, Paul, just add 'em already; you know they're the bee's knees! Official or not, they're better games than Baby Jo and Wonder Momo. :mrgreen:

Hello, making my first official post here.
I'd like to ask, Paul, if you would apreciate a little insight into some of the games on your list that haven't gotten a review yet. I've looked at a couple marked "avoid" and some of them weren't that bad. Like Chris' adventure for example, the only thing off with that game was it's obsession with batshit hard moving platforms.

I had mixed feelings about Chris's Adventure, but in the end decided that the game was just shoddy in most respects. Even playing it when it was released it was a bit crap. I think I may have been a little harsh with my rating, but it's far too easy now to give games a pass for being crappy when they are retrogames, because you don't expect Xbox quality graphics and modern design from them.
But everyone has a different view and I'm happy to add other people's opinions - it makes it more balanced. If you want to write a little something, just email it to me, or PM it here and I'll put it up.

That would be great...several varied in-game screens and a title shot are what I usually go for if that's possible (clean emu shots only please) :)

I can get you game screens for all the characters if need be.
I just can't get very far in the game though. Mostly cause around rounds 4-6 you get a game puzzle that takes alot of trial and error to come through.

If you haven't a descreen setting on your scanner software, just do them at 500dpi and I'll despeckle and shrink them to 300dpi to mimimize the pattern you get from scanned print.

Why do you reffer to one on one fighting games as "beat em ups" ?
The use of the term 'Fighting Game' is either an Americanism or a more modern invention. They have always been beat 'em ups to me.

Hey Paul, just wanted to say how awesome your site has become over the years.
Some comments: I think one of the things missing is an easy way for readers to submit reviews and rate games. Emailing is all well and good, but people are lazy. Also, I think it would be amazing to adopt a rating system. It would be cool to copy PC Engine Fan's style: offer a few different categories for each game, as well as an aggregated score.
What do you think?

I think they are awesome ideas. I also think I have absolutely no technical knowledge of how to implement such ideas, otherwise I would have had comment boxes and user rating a long time ago. If you look behind the scenes of my site, it's all made of cardboard and tape rather than polished metal, if you know what I mean :)

So last night I figured out how to make that happen. Here is a link to the thread (http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=11308.msg214950#msg214950).

Paul, you want some screens from later rounds in Digital Champ ? I just have em lying around, so.....
Also in your description you could mention how you have to fight the same three people at least four times. I mean I got to m match 10 and saw the same pasty a$$hole from the begining for the fourth time and I was like "Screw this, I'm going home."

I finaly beat it, so I can provide the fourth (and last) opponent and the ending. Also features Mike, the other black guy you don't have.
After fighting the same three guys four times in a row (except Mike, for some reason, who only fights you three times) he's a nice diversion but holy crap he's fast and annoying as hell.
In that case, are you also going to add Implode and Meteor Blaster? :wink:
Yep, I'll add entries for other homebrews, so I might be begging for some screenshots of those other ones soon :)

They've 'forced a resynchronisation' of my 'DNS zone' which sounds painful but I believe involves some sort of chanting and dancing naked in the forest. So hopefully it will pop back into life soonish.

I played most of the way through Zelda II before packing the whole thing up, never to be used again. Then about 5 years ago I got an R4 flash cart for the DS to play DS roms on my actual DS. I was happy with it for about a year, then yet again, I put it up and haven't used it since. Maybe if someone could sit down with me in person and load up the emulator and roms into my computer, help me pick out appropriate controllers, and everything, then I would be willing to try emulation again, but for some reason, it just doesn't 'click' with me.
I still play my Game Boy games (on my Game Boy Advance), my Game Boy Advance games (on my DS Lite), my DS games (on my DS Lite), my NES games (on my NES console), my SNES games (on my SNES console), and my TurboGrafx games (on either my TG-16 console or on my Duo). My only game system which doesn't get any play time is my Sega Game Gear (with 60 games) and my Gamecube (which I picked up for $10 at a yard sale, and I've never even plugged in to test yet. I mostly just got it because I want to get a Game Boy Player). The aforementioned game systems are ALL of the game systems that I have, and I don't currently have any desire to get another console (maybe a Wii for 4-player Mario cart action with the steering wheel controllers).
That said, if someone could shoot Paul some great screenshots of Fray, I would greatly appreciate it.

PCECP seems to be doing the same for me. (Windows 8 64bit)
I have tired installing the Japanese language pack and the Japanese language option for Firefox. This may be an issue with PCECP as other Japanese sites show fine.
Can someone confirm if they can see the Kanji Name field correctly on PCECP who has their PC set to native Japanese?
General Tip for you:
If you are copying between web pages and your PC, notepad etc. You will need to change your language support options for non-Unicode programs to Japanese. Otherwise when you copy text from the web page to notepad the text will change to blocks and ?????????
To change this:
Control panel / Region / Administrative and click Change System Locale and set this to Japanese
(note region is 'Region and languages' in Windows 7)
However changing this does have a side effect!
As you have changed the 'support option for non-Unicode programs' to Japanese it does what is says on the tin! So for example in DOS '\' will now show as:

Hey, have you ever considered adding in the Special Version HuCard games (i.e. Final Soldier Special Version)?
Video game Den has a good list here (http://www.videogameden.com/article.htm?list?hu_sp).
I would like to have more information on them in an easily accessible location, and adding them to your site would be great!
Title: Re: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: sunteam_paul on March 11, 2013, 06:53:11 AM
I might add the Special versions although it will probably be a short note in the existing pages as there's not much to say. There are still a few titles I have to add and have just not got round to yet (such as the Karaoke discs).

I personally would appreciate a separate page for each of the Special Version games. One reason is that I believe that some of the Special Version games are literally only 2-5 minute games, so they would mostly only be interesting for collectors, while some of them are full version games with extra options, which would then be more interesting for gamers.

Paul,
I thought it rather strange when I was looking at The Tower of Druaga on your website. The review of the game on your site indicates that it is a decent (if quirky) game, but you have the game marked 'Avoid'. Is this 'Avoid' your opinion and the review someone else's?
By the way, thanks again for the great website. I use it often.

Perhaps I've not made these sections very clear - the 'You say...' sections are reviews sent in by other people which don't always agree with mine. Maybe I should change that to 'reader opinion' or something.

No, your "You say..." title is fine. Iwas just trying to clarify whose opinion it was for the 'Avoid' tag. I assume it's you, but I'm not sure.

No I had a bunch of stuff recorded and screenshotted for volume 2, but I kept looking at the pageviews and it seemed nobody was interested. It takes a massive effort to sort that stuff out and it was shelved until such a time when I have more time/inclination to work on it.

However, I know exactly nothing about all that goofy web programming malarky unless it's wysiwyg so I'm powerless to do it. And the months it would take to learn and implement are probably better spent adding content and making PCE games for you folks.

To be fair, one of my plans is to make a bigger Search button near the top, maybe open a new page with search tips. I use similar phrases for game type so searching "SHOOT 'EM UP" for example will give decent results.

Best enjoyed full screen HD.
That is great, nice surreal vibe to it. If enough of them existed I could definitely see letting a playlist of them run on my old HDTV that I converted into a big old digital picture frame.
Keep up the great work on the site, one of my all time favorites. I wish the music was hosted as individual tracks somewhere.

BRILLIANT.
Simply brilliant.
From TubeYou comment:
Quote
STOP EVERYTHING ELSE YOU ARE DOING AND MAKE MORE OF THESE!
This is a brilliant extension of the Pixellence feature that would occasionally appear in the PCE fanzine. I would not hesitate in moving beyond character sprites or revisiting Vigilante (in the future) to showcase the other frames of animation for nearly all of the sprites (indeed, the bosses had several unique frames of animation).
Finally, the soundscape (atmospheric, brooding) version of the chiptune perfectly matched the presentation. Don't change this aspect at all. I'm glad the shrill, harsh IREM sound, albeit in altered form, accompanies this art. :)
Title: Re: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: sunteam_paul on August 29, 2015, 05:29:39 AM
I have made more, they will be rolled out in the next few months, and I think they are getting better each time.
I was really happy the way the sound felt when processed like this - not so much with Vigilante, but with future ones it really sounds like a steady breathing which really gives them a nice vibe.

Yes, that would be fantastic! You might want to send a sample first so I can make sure they're gonna be OK. They need to be 300dpi. If your printer has a descreen option then turn it on. If it doesn't, can you scan at 600dpi? Might be best to try a scan of a cover rather than a spine as it's easier to check quality - also, if you crop them down, please try not to chop off anything.
I have a bunch of outstanding files still to add, so I can confirm what I need later.

Sorry I haven't gotten back to ya. I did a test run with my scanner, and the quality is just absolutely poopy. I can't really see where to change the settings on it either, so I am wondering if there is a way I can send it to you or a forum member to have them scan it for ya if you would like :)

Hey Paul, any plans for Volume 2 to the PCE game review compilation you published a year or two ago?
Title: Re: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: ClodBuster on October 09, 2015, 08:00:57 PM
I loved the first book and would like to see a second volume, too. I think there are still articles left from the PDF magazines that weren't published in printed form yet, were they?
Title: Re: PCE Software Bible updates
Post by: sunteam_paul on October 09, 2015, 09:13:30 PM
Volume 2 likelihood is undetermined at present.
Writing that stuff is reeeealy hard and time consuming. I've currently got Saber Rider upcoming as well as the Pixellence book and weekly videos to make for YouTube, and Grelox, and etc etc.
Yes, I'd like to do a volume 2, but can't say when.
Regarding the articles, some are exclusive to the web based zine, so anything that appears in volume 2 will be 100% new stuff.

A lot of tedious/meticulous work goes into something like that no doubt and few have the staying power to press on for that sort of thing, so the fact that you're still at it for all these years shows exceptional dedication.

XMAS 89
I still remember how fun it was to finally hear the final song...the ending animations weren't spectacular, but they were well-earned.
I never thought this soundtrack would be enduring.... but it is.
:)
Copy & Pasted from TubeYou:
"I was rarely drawn to "happy" upbeat songs, but this soundtrack is just SO DAMN GOOD that I don't feel embarrassed for loving it. LOVE IT. There is a sweeping, majestic quality to every song that is so damn fitting for a driving game—except the horrible sound effects in this game (screeching breaks, lame engine) somewhat mar the experience. So damn cheerful, this soundtrack. Too cheerful. It makes me cringe, yet it warms my soul. :) "

It was the game that truly sold me on the PCE back in my early days of collecting for the system, along with Dragon Spirit and the amazing R-Type conversion. I think I can safely attribute those three games to kindling my lifelong love for the system and passion for Japanese import gaming in general, so the nostalgia factor is beyond words. Dragon Spirit has by far the better music, but there's still a few great tracks to be found in Gunhed.

Gunhed was maybe the first game I saw running on the PCE and it did look impressive. But PC Genjin was the one that sold me on the machine. And I never liked shoot 'em ups at all until I played Super Star Soldier. Gunhed is flawed - the pacing is terrible on the first few levels and the music doesn't pack the punch that it should.

Yes: Sylphia, Madou Monogatari and Dead of the Brain were sold with registration cards. Slyphia also included a sheet of stickers (simply the “Sylphia” logo—no character art), Dead of the Brain included a small coloring book with three crayons (“blood red”, “yellow spleen” and “green mucas”)...
I do not believe any additional items were included with those titles.

Speaking of stupid, thanks for the nice off-topic rant. How 'bout you go f*ck yourself?
If you weren't such an idiot, you'd understand the three games you're asking about (one of which wasn't even mentioned in your original query thread) are pricey, uncommon games that not that many pcefx members own.

1193/5000 Having the books that are the best there is, I do not explain how this forum is this idiot.
This forum is pretty shabby, you ask something and you respond idiotically.
680 original games pcengine, one question, answer of children or fools, juas.
If someone wants to respond again to your friend's imbecilities, maybe he laughs, I do not.
I ask here, waiting for an answer to a question, waiting for someone to answer, that the truth does not cost so much, it seems to me that it is already full of places, where the idiots are happy, is this a forum dedicated to the pcengine or a forum for idiots?
I thought that only the Spanish forums were full of stupidity, I see that it is not like that.
Now I ask.
Sylphia, madou monogatari and brain dead, were sold with the registration card?

Hey Ashrion, you can buy a sealed copy and find out for yourself. Best of luck.
Also I thought this guy was familiar, he made a hilarious post about Snatcher awhile back. What a hoot.

Always nice when someone feels so entitled to information that they act like this. Good luck getting any real answers now, but you do have only yourself to blame.

Oye papi, que tal si mejor pasas el tiempo haciendo algo de provecho, aprendes a hablar y escribir en Ingles, y mejor aun, lee un libro sobre modales y aplicalos.
¿Estamos?
