Nice interview. I was really hoping for the Ridley voice, though :D

Re: Policenauts Social Thread

As far as I know they ARE almost finished. The only thing standing between them and the release are two rewrites of the skit script and a few tweaks to the main script. And a few minor hacks. Sounds like a close head-to-head finish :mrgreen:

Re: Policenauts Social Thread

Just in case you didn't notice, yet: Phantasian Productions released a "demo" patch of their Tales of Phantasia translation (to be applied on the full game to shorten the time you have to wait for the full patch to be released. I dunno how different this is from Gemini's (Absolute Zero's) ...

Re: Current Project Status (1/14/09): Alpha Testing

What this guy is basically doing is jamming the switch that recognizes if the lid is open or not. This is how all swap tricks work. However, I don't recommend this particular method, because removing the CD while the drive's still spinning might damage the motor, period. The older PS2 models with th...

"Ночной Дозор" :mrgreen:

Honestly, I found that movie pretty trashy. Especially those parts with the flashlight and those funny colored bulbs for dispelling certain kinds of evil.

BTW: I guess this is _again_ getting pretty OT.

Is this that "tovarish" or something that Colossus always says :P?
I only remember an ax in Vagrant Story with that name, but yes, it is spelled "tovarish".

Re: Current Project Status (1/14/09): Alpha Testing

Remember Mato's Mother 3 blog? That game was probably even messier besides not being ported over (Block 0 text, hell yeah!) I assume that most of those consistent parts - dialogues, menu text, video subs, all that stuff using the same font bank, encoding and stuff - were the ones coming from the PC9...

Re: Current Project Status (1/14/09): Alpha Testing

I've got an older PS2 hooked up to a 27" Sony Wega that's NTSC if there was a reasonable way to boot the iso on it. I suppose there are still region locks to consider unless the patch could rewrite the security sector. You won't get around either modding it or doing the SlideCard/BreakerPro tr...

Tell me more about it. I thought the only difference between the MCD and PCE version was the level of gore (like animated exposed animal intestines).

Re: Current Project Status (1/14/09): Alpha Testing

I don't think the term 'bug' applied at that time, since the main objective then was hacking the game to handle the strings needed to actually fit the translated text into it. And identifying the last missing portions of text hidden somewhere on the disc (e.g. video subtitles, audio subtitles, chara...

Re: Current Project Status (1/14/09): Alpha Testing

I suggest getting a chipped PS2, because that way you can play imports of both PSX and PS2 games. And patched ISOs, of course. By the way: Wasn't there a tool that could convert regular PSX ISOs into EBOOTs that could be played on any PSP? Dunno if this works with those new generation PSPs, but it s...

Re: Favorite game soundtrack?

At the moment I'm really falling in love with the Mother 3 soundtrack. There's just too many catchy and emotional tunes in it - the entire game is exceptionally emotional, now that I think of it. Other than that you can dish me almost any soundtrack Yasunori Mitsuda worked on next to Hitoshi Sakimot...

Also, to our German friend who thought he was being clever, the word "homoerotische" isn't all that hard to figure out. Speaking in German does not make you cryptic. If I had wanted to be cryptic, I'd have written "schwul". Or "tuntig" or "warm" or "ande...
