Game looks and runs better on GC...

[Theophany]

=> Nice HD edition, the only improvement I have seen is higher resolution in menus with less pixelated UI, texts, images and portraits. Textures look better in the GC version.

=> As for the 30 fps : it IS an issue, combats feel awful and clunky.

=> Why the hell is there two exes in the task manager for the game ? (TOS.exe and some weird [random letters and numbers].tmp program which seems to be the one running the game and is even creating a folder in the root directory of my drive)

=> The game is struggling to don't crash when accessing the save screen.

=> "Battle contorols" *japanese accent*

=> The game is unable to save half of the options I modify (voice language and window/window background especially)

=> No "shockwave" effect when stepping on a save point (minor but I suppose other effects like this one will also be missing)


I will wait a couple days for Namco apologies/fixes for this horrible port. If there are no fixes promised, I will refund this week-end.

Dolphin has the definite version of the game.

Are those Dolphin screenshots stretched to fit the screen?

Edit: The game suffers big time with the loss of cell shading but that's not the PC port's fault: it's the PS2 port's fault... which they should have fixed for the PS3 version if they could have, but that makes it that port team's mistake not this one's.

At least I got it for free. *Sigh*

I wish you applied the widescreen fix. If possible, do it really fast to show just how superior the dolphin version is. Just go in to options and enable it.

[Mairo the bear]

You may want to enable some widescreen patch/forcing on that dolphin emulator though.
I have this on my modded Wii and it automatically forces widescreen instead of stretching like that.

This is really sad =/

[Diviance]

Just want to point out that it is technically still piracy even if you do own a gamecube and a copy of the game on it.

I mean, nobody will actually care or do anything about it... but it is still piracy.

Just wow.And i have this game in my wishlist.Glad i didn't rush out to get it.Dolphin emu here i come.

[FlamboyantMongoose]

it looks MUCH better when i play it on dolphin
you using widescreen fix and hd remaster textures? any enhancements at all?
it should look much better than that on dolphin

[Zunnoab #931]

I really do suspect it looks so much better due to the cell shading though. I'm not saying that's okay; it's just not the PC port team's fault.

[FlamboyantMongoose]

anyway, even though the game looks significantly better on dolphin this game has not aged well at all in general

tod:dc, top:x, tor: all aged much better than tos
tos needs a remake like tod and top and not a simple lazy remaster

Don't know about dolphin, on Wii I enable it from USB loader GX global settings and it loads it trough Dios Mios. (have my physical discs ripped so I don't need to constantly switch them)

That's one of those myths, same as "you can download as long as you delete withing 24h" thing :P

You can just insert the legit disc into optical drive (if you have one). After all it's regular mini-DVD essentially.
Legal or not, I'm pretty sure steam community rules state that talking about emulators in general is forbidden, so if some moderator decides this discussion is againts that there's not much to do about it. I got banned from Metal Slug 3 community for this reason.
