If you have a 360, it's only a few euro to buy.

Looking Like 29th is the popular date..

anyway..

Game 2 is

Powerstone!


For those that Don't know Powerstone is a dreamcast treasure, a 3D Arena Fighter, where you Smack people with lamposts, shoot them with bazookas and whatever weapons you find and collect gems to transform power rangers style.

I remember that one. Like a 3d Smash.

Took about twenty minutes of searching menus one by one, but I finally found Garou on Japanese PSN and it's installing now.

Now for some blatantly ripped off 90's dance.

It's a PS2 Classic so no online anyway.

I too would like to include Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection (PS3) in the lineup.

Owwmykneecap

Do you have a copy of the Dreamcast Version?

airmax87

29th August

I have a softmodded ps2 I could bring in, with most fighters for it, component cables and a lot of controllers (no multitap though).

Owwmykneecap

Well For this tournament all the games are going to be played on Dreamcast as that's the theme, that's what I was hinting at to Kiki (who already knew this! )

However, for a casual set up, feel free to bring it along

This will coincide with Nutrients Free Casuals Day on the 29th so Looks like we' will have good attendance I think!

Oh dear, isn't the DC port of Garou pretty abysmal? - Though I guess if the place is crowded you won't hear the sound effects being played 2 seconds out of synch.

29th August

If you are all stuck for copies remember imgburn and a certain dll file from isozone, I'll say no more.

chopperbyrne

The DC version is the worst port, PS2 and 360 are better although slightly faster than the arcade.

Owwmykneecap

I have the Jap version so all should be good.

I'll give it a test and see how it goes.

chopperbyrne

All good so, they changed the audio for the western release for no apparent reason.

Some of Terry's audio is from Real Bout 2 I think.

Do you have two DC sticks?

Owwmykneecap

Yep, I've one and kiki has one.


Garou is VGA Compatible too.

We'd have 3 if I'd remembered to buy a PSX-to-DC converter.
