3DO ZONE Forums

I discovered a crack in this gear in one of my FZ-1s, a few weeks ago. It was definitely preventing the lens from moving properly. I just ended up swapping out the whole CD-ROM assembly from another unit, but I'd like to fix it, if possible. Did anyone ever find a replacement gear? And for what it's...

What city? We should totally hang out and do some 3DO hacking/coding!

A little late to the party, but yeah -- I moved to Chicago in the fall. I'm in Hyde Park. How about you?

Write-in option... 3DO Zone. Thanks.

Here are the contents of the three sealed games I've opened: Gridders Long box (This is the kind with internal support pieces that holds the jewel case in place.) Product Registration card (it has a black and yellow chevron pattern, like the block on the box Jewel case with instruction manual and ba...

Nintendo was very willing to bargain on repair prices when my Wii took a crap. I stopped getting any picture from it. I think they originally wanted $75, then they knocked it down to something like $60 when I said that was an awful lot. Then I hemmed and hawed and asked "I dunno... Can you do any be...

I usually use Video Game Critic if I want to quickly skim through a platform's games to get an idea of what's available for it and pick out a few good games.

As for Night Trap, I've actually been thinking about getting it. Is the 3DO the definitive version, or would that be the 32X+CD version?

Xenoblade on Wii.

I found this at Goodwill today... Thought some folks here might get a kick out of it.

Havent read the article yet, but looking at the pictures, the Saturn version looks better graphically. The Saturn version is definitely better from a technical standpoint, but I think the 3DO version has more character. It has more color and a whimsical style. If they had kept that style with the o...

As a matter of fact, I just assembled and sold a complete US 3DO library on evilbay a few weeks back providing someone with an instant collection that could take years to complete. bitrate, would you PM me link to that listing, please? :roll: http://www.evilbay.com/itm/3DO-Complete-US-Library-In-Bo...

As I've said before, the game is epic. I'm still waiting for the reboot. In fact, if anybody wants to join with me to form a clan/guild/league ahead-of-time for this event, I'm all for it. I'll be Vice President! As I've said before, the game is epic. I'm still waiting for the reboot. In fact, if a...

I've always thought this game looked interesting, but I just watched a YouTube clip for the first time, and I have NO IDEA what is going on...

Glad you guys like it. It honestly wouldn't take too much time to finish it up. Maybe I'll get around to it some day?

What is it? It's a surprise. Download it, burn it, play it. More specifically, play it on your 3DO. Any 3DO!

Uh... But don't get your hopes up too much. I never shared it before because I never finished it. But in honor of the new forum, I figured... Why not?

Ah, I saw one of these shells at the Midwest Gaming Classic a couple weeks ago. I wondered at the time if it was from the dental units -- I guess it was! Very cool!

So, who won?

I bought this game yesterday because I remembered seeing a few posts praising it here. I have to say, it's great! I'm really impressed with how fast and silky smooth the action is. On top of being a nice technical demo for the system, it's just plain fun.

I always wanted to try a Wing Commander game. Put me in for that one!

Zillion - A fun Metroid-like action/adventure/shooter Looks really cool, but I heard there is no save feature. Any idea how long a game it is? Old post, but figure I should respond... :) You're right, there's no save feature. I played the game in short bursts by learning each room and mapping the g...

Zillion - A fun Metroid-like action/adventure/shooter
Gangster Town - Possibly my favorite 8-bit light-gun game
Phantasy Star - One of the few traditional RPGs that I enjoy
Golvellius - A Zelda-like action-adventure
Golden Axe Warrior - Another Zelda-like action-adventure

I friggin LOVE the N64... Mario 64, Mario Kart, Zelda, Wave Race, Blast Corps, StarFox, GoldenEye, Banjo-Kazooie, Beetle Adventure Racing, F-Zero X, Diddy Kong, Paper Mario... Every one of them is a masterpiece. Then there are several hidden gems, too, like Rocket: Robot on Wheels, Space Station Sil...

Lately I have been collecting a little more and more "seriously" as the days go on and now I'm contemplating getting into things like this. The aura of just having it alone makes it tempting. Just slap a $1000 game on the 'ole credit card and pay it off bit by bit.. Granted, this one is going to go...

For a long time, I ignored tablet PCs because I didn't see a use for them. Then I decided to get one for the classes I'm taking, because reading journal articles on a tablet is WAY nicer than reading them on a widescreen laptop (soo much scrolling...) I went with the iPad 2. It was my first Apple pr...

So... Can I come over and play video games? I'm insanely jealous of your collection.

On a more serious note, I'd love to see some of those development content discs dumped/shared. It's be a huge help for homebrew.

Wait, what? When did this become a drama forum?

I'm sure that all of you know, that American Laser Games released 8 games only in US. Some of these games are pretty good (Mad Dog series, Who shot Johnny Rock) for that time. Why they hadn't released games in Japan and Europe? Even DP and Virgin released their Corpse Killer and Demolition Man in J...

I have this disc. I just assumed it was dirt common and came with every FZ-1. I always liked that it had a Batman episode. I LOVE that show.

No, no, no... Turn the sharpness setting all the way down. Sharpness introduces artifacts to the picture. A very low setting can look good, but having it all the way up generally adds lots of unnecessary white highlights to edges. It creates a very unnatural picture. As far as differences with S-vid...

S-video is a huge improvement over A/V.
