so awesome! after Mother 3, i was hoping this one was moving ahead but hadnt seen an update - this just went on my list of games to beat this year, for sure. much love to these guys.

now if that extra KOTOR 2 stuff gets tied up this year, itll be a clean sweep.

God I hope so. I have been waiting for a long time.

Game is just what I thought it would be like. The amount of little details you can find out for every little object is fantastic. I knew it was supposed to be detailed, but this is ridiculous! I will probably never get anywhere because I will be spending all my time collecting factoids. :lol

One thing that is bugging me is that I can't decide whether to play on PSX or PSP. Guess I will do an hour of each and see which I prefer. Also Sony should get together with JunkerHQ and find some way to get this bad boy on PSN.

If you have the mouse on psx, then that's the right choice. If not, any choice is good by their own side.

This thread would probably get more attention if "Kojima" was in the title.

 

[Ubersnuber]

already....

Spoiler

touched some boobs. just according to keikaku.

Spoiler

It sooo helps for getting through that nasty SAS, I swears!

Have never played this title before, but dayumn if this adventure isn't something else:lol

 

[epmode]

I'm a few hours in and I'm already liking this more than Snatcher, if only because this isn't a total Blade Runner ripoff. I know that these two games amount to little more than interactive fiction but goddamn if I don't love them anyway. It's all in the details.

I'd love to see Kojima stop the Metal Gear nightmare and go back to adventure-y stuff.

I'm about to ruin your enjoyment muhahahahaha

 

[epmode]

Lols, it's true of course. But the future setting + all the neat astronaut stuff keeps it from being as blindingly obvious.

An homage! An adaptation! Almost a ripoff but not quite!

 

[TheSeks]

Stupid xdelta keeps throwing up errors in windows about it not being there despite it MAGICALLY BEING ON MY HARDDRIVE OTHERWISE. *gasp*

Ugh, been trying at this for twelve hours to get it to stop giving that and stupid other errors (which I ironed out, this is the last one) to patch my damn game. :| So annoying. I'm giving up for now.

 

[Tiktaalik]

Yeah the character design being an homage is one thing, but it does seem to be much more unique than SNATCHER which was at times excessively obviously Blade Runner.

Ed didn't come right out and say "I'm too old for this shit" but I laughed my ass off when he said something about only having 3 years until he can retire, it was just like Murtaugh.

 

[bernardobri]

Minor spoilers of the Prologue, but I'll put the tag anyway.

Spoiler

- The officer that talks with Jonathan after Lorraine passes away is voiced by Hideo Kojima :lol

Yeah, at least it's not actually painting over actual shots from Blade Runner like Snatcher did. Shit was shameless (and should have gotten their asses sued).

 

[Mailenstein]

Awesome day for gaming I guess. Wish everyone lotsa fun with this title. It's an awesome game.

 

[Nachkebia]

Shit, my rips are in Bin format and ones I convert it to isos patch does not work I get this error msg " XD3_INVALID_INPUT"

 

[dream]

So, uh, if I ace the shooting gallery, will I

Spoiler

really get to touch Meryl's boobs?

 

[Nachkebia]

Great, I did try to patch it by hand as recommended in this thread and I got new error " source file too short: XD3_INTERNAL"

 

[TheSonicRetard]

THIS GAME FUCKING RULES!!

I played it all night. FUCK this game is awesome. The music, the story, the animation... everything is so fucking top notch.

DAMMIT I've waited so long for this. Amazing game. Been smiling the entire time I've played it.

 

[kamorra]

You own the game right? Do a new rip, this time directly to ISO and not BIN/CUE.

 

[TheSonicRetard]

Anyone else playing this on an actual Playstation? I wish I had a mouse.

 

[leehom]

Is this for the PC emu?

 

[Windom Earle]

This game is awesome and runs like a dream on the PSP! It's such a relief to finally understand what's going on!

Also if you compare this to "modern" detective games like Hotel Dusk... OMG, so much better!

Thanks to the people who did this, the amount of work that was put into this must have been ridiculous!

 

[Flek]

so any mac playstation emulator out there ?

This! And on a white PSP it looks so hot!
Cyberpunk FTW!

Have a gander over here.

No promises though and you need to acquire your own BIOS stuff.

 

[TheSonicRetard]

also, since the title screen, I can't help but going "Doo doo doo do-do-doot" every now and then.

 

[epmode]

Yes sir!

 

[Lyonaz]

Does anyone have the mp3 of the ending theme jingle or whatever it's called, you know the one you also hear at the konami logo on Metal Gear Solid?

The first 12 seconds of this. Can someone rip that pls ?

 

[Windom Earle]

Finally sat down to do some serious playing, and I think they've done a great job with the translation. Got through the prologue and started act 1.

As a side note, playing on PSP is such a nice solution for both portability and larger screen/speakers/comfy couch.

<3 RemoteJoy.

Do you have the cable for this or are you using some kind of streaming?

 

[TheSeks]

Remotejoy = streaming to PC, IIRC.

 

[Nachkebia]

Okey figured it out how to patch files, now whats the best way to create multi cd eboot? psxtopsp I guess but I could not find any proper guide how to compile two isos into one eboot...

 

[Aeana]

Do you have the cable for this or are you using some kind of streaming?

Using the standard PSP USB cable.

 

[drkOne]

PSP gives me a data corrupted error while trying to run the game.
ISO is working just fine on ePSXe, converted them with the PopStation MDv3 (got it from the CFW thread), 2 separate eboots (only extra things was the icon and pic, no sound as it appears to be corrupted).
My setplugins/popsloader folder has all the 3.72 files. Do I need the files from other Firmwares?

Edit: Just figured how to get the Mouse to work with ePSXe. Had to press F5 to switch it to Mouse.

 

[Red Blaster]

Surreal to be finally playing this in English after waiting over a decade.

 

[TheSeks]

I had to use Popsloader and set it to 3.71.

Whew. Popsloader works on my PSP still even with CWCheat (they stopped conflicting finally, I guess). Yay, can play it 3.71, works flawlessly. Thanks for that!

 

[UncleScr00ge]

Great game.

The shooting gallery using the PSP d-pad is hard.

 

[RS4-]

Using ps3 pad on epsxe, I think I'll make the switch to mouse. I've got to play through Snatcher again after this

 

[Duane Cunningham]

The ripper is coming from INSIDE THE COMPUTER.

Ha ha, I'll be damned. Thank you.

 

[Cowie]

... are you hoping to make a ringtone of it too? hahah. If I get around to ripping that audio, i'll post it here

 

[ReyVGM]

Ripping the audio is easy. Just download any free music recorder and record the jingle from a video or the game.

 

[GoncaloCCastro]

I wonder if they took too many liberties while translating this! :lol

Maybe not, we all know how Kojima is!

Edit: I remember a part when I played the game in Japanese that I think is worse!

 

[Aeana]

Unfortunately, the original script has a lot of junk like that in it.

 

[mattiewheels]

:lol i think this translation's well-written. the original script was probably insane.

 

[Augemitbutter]

laughed my ass off..

Spoiler

at the whole director's part. the voice actors play along nicely

 

[overthehill99]

Started playing Snatcher, and it's really cool. I've never played a game in this style before. It's really interesting. And you can totally see Hedio Kojima all over the game.

 

[Coldsnap]

since someone mentioned snatcher; does the import saturn or psx games have english?

 

[overthehill99]

As far as I know, the only english one is the Sega CD version.

 

[Augemitbutter]

also loved...

Spoiler

the whole napoleon part in the hospital. i hope that's not the only snatcher reference =)

 

[Lyonaz]

:lol :lol haha. yeah I want it for my ringtone, hell I would use it as my windows start up tune too.
