Battle of the Ports

It's a shame the file sizes are so big. I'd like to use a codec that can compress better with smaller file sizes and is common enough for everyone to use without having people to install new codecs just to watch the show.

 

New Battle of the Ports - S.C.I.

 

Coming within the next 24 hours

 

Amazing Yakumo! Will watch the S.C.I. tonight and look forward Street Fighter II.

 

Battle of the Ports - Street Fighter II (Show #21) out now on YouTube

[video=youtube_share;69v1CDn_Fds]http://youtu.be/69v1CDn_Fds[/video]

 

Excellent selection of episodes - will wait for the 60fps versions, should be awesome. Really enjoyed the Virtua Racing episode as well, got around to watching it last week!

 

Thanks. I'll be adding shows 18 & 19 to the official site next week or the week later depending on how much work I have.

 

I just finished watching the SFII episode. Nice to see the Korean DOS version was included. It's really quite amazing given that it was a homebrew port. Makes you wonder how some of the other home computer versions could have gone so horribly wrong.

 

easy, they let ass hats program them Or the programmers did have talent but they were given such sort programming time windows. Companies such as US Gold and Ocean churned out shit after shit. They were basically the British equivalent of Acclaim / LJN.

 

I finally saw your SCI, and now I know I need to add the chase HQ saturn port to my collection. I knew I should of done so awhile ago, but sometimes I focus on other things lol. Thanks for these wonderful videos mate

 

You're welcome.

 

Yakumo-sama it is crazy and cool . But I must say this, I am jumping up and down in joy. That you have finally made the BOTP with SF2, and I am smiling from ear to ear. Yakumo-sama I have not even watched it through. But thank you I know you basically did a BOTP of SF2 some years ago in RTC. But it makes me smile that you have made a new BOTP, and this time with so many other formats , machines and so forth . Yakumo I am smiling from ear to ear Thumps up

 

Thank you. I hope your not too upset when you read what I say about the Amiga version. .

 

Bloody hell no, you are correct. But oh well, I was "blessed" getting an SNES , and SF2 and SF2 turbo which kicked major arse, in comparison to the Amiga version. Hell, I even remember saying at the computer club, where I first played SF2. "This is nothing like the SNES version". After I had been playing the SNES version for some time. Quite frankly, my eyes must have been blinded back in the day, with the Amiga. When in fact most of the arcade conversions to the Amiga were horrible. But just because I had fond memories of playing games on the Amiga. Especially Golden Axe. Then it does not mean Some of the games you have been reviewing has not been horrible. To be frank about it, I am shocked over the Amiga version of Robocop, cause I could NOT remember it being so horrible bad. And the sound for that matter. And when you are going to review the Mortal Kombat series, and you come to the Amiga versions, I will not be disappointed if you criticise it for being too shabby. I will not roll over and take it, but I will understand it, even though I have had fond memories of playing MK1 and 2 on the Amiga. Also if you are thinking of doing a Super SF2 BOTP, I must point out this bit.
Super Street Fighter II Turbo came out on the Amiga CD32. So you know, and not just that. But oh well, I have only seen a video of the particular version. So how it plays, I have no clue about. But it must be better than the "normal" Amiga version of Super SF2. And that is a shock to me, to find out. That there has been made a "normal" Amiga version of Super SF2.

 

I got 1 for ya Skate or Die!

 

hmm, interesting choice. I've only played the NES version of that.

 

I've been watching these on PS3 You Tube. Probably the best way to watch them is through a console on You Tube. They're becoming a highlight along with anytime a new Game Sack is posted. Here's one for you, an old favorite of mine too, Rampage! That game had something like 70 shitzillion ports.

 

I like Game Sack too. Just saw the 3DO show. Rampage is on the cards The next will be Super Street Fighter II but I'm having issues with the x68000 version so the show has been delayed a little.

 

If you ever do a Taiwanese or Korean PC gaming episode someday, i'll be a first day release watch for me! lol also speaking of the Korean DOS version of SF2, did you know there was a hack version of this particular one that included both characters Andy & Terry Bogard from the Fatal Fury/Garou Densetsu series!

 

I didn't know about the Fatal Fury hack but I did know about a hack that used odd sound effects. Someone mentioned it on my YouTube channel.

Please don't hold your breath waiting for a Chinese / Korean PC special. I have 0 interest in PC gaming I'm afraid so I'd have to do a hell of a lot of reserch to find anything. Sadly I don't have such time these days. 10 years ago, maybe but now
