just another 3 years and maybe it will be playable

Oh it's that game I played 6 years ago. Ganbare emulators.

Just gotta rebuy that old console good little goy :^)
Aiden Cook
I bet by the end of next year it'll be playable. Maybe a little glitchy, but playable. Watching emulators progress is fun and exciting; there's actual tangible progress that the code for an emulator is getting better and better. You can visually see people's work pay off. Its really cool and inspiring. Why do you shitpost?
William Hernandez
Just buy a 360, Jesus, you can get RDR and a 360 for practically nothing. It's embarrassing how obviously poor/underage Sup Forumsirgins are.
James Rivera
I do have a 360 but I'd prefer to play it at higher res and 60 frame rates
It's embarrassing how defensive you get about this though
Juan Jones
The only thing people care about is custom resolution and higer frame rate.
I played RDR on ps3 back in 2010 but fuck if I'm ever going to play that shit in 720p and 20fps again.
Evan Baker
why is it so hard to emulate?
Colton Robinson
Emulation is important in its own right; it helps ensure that games continue to exist and be playable far into the future once most older hardware is abandoned. Can't you appreciate emulation, at least for archival sake? Even if you can play the game on a 360, that doesn't change how cool and exciting this is.
Adrian Jackson
Can't wait to play the next zelda and red dead on the same system at higher resolutions :)

PS3's have a really weird architecture and Xbox 360 hardware isn't as well documented as people would like it to be, from what I understand.
Christopher Anderson
I don't get why you're so bothered by this. If they wanna put in the work to emulate why does that affect you and all the other faggots in here that do nothing but focus on what pcfats are doing?
Caleb Lewis
>you could suck dick for a dollar a day and be able to afford a console that can play RDR in the time emulation is possible
Carson Miller
This is just sad.
Grayson Cruz
Emulating this gen is 2 things:
A personal challenge for the coder what said
yeah, isn't RDR from XBox? One would thing it would be easily emulated
Dominic Morales
>lol who cares about preserving the past? let's just let the masterpieces die and be forgotten, epic consolewar memes are more important :^))))
Isaac Reyes
If you guys want to play it so badly then why do you not just swallow your pride and buy an xbone to play the emulated version that preforms better than the actual game?
Are you all so invested in the 60fps or death/platform war memes that you will delay a good time for 6 years plus the 1 or two more it will take for this to finish?
Adam Parker
I don't need an emulator to preserve history, I still have my NES and all my favorite games in perfect working order.
Kayden Watson
did you even read the thread before you posted you aspie retard?
Jonathan Kelly
Some people don't wanna waste $300 dollars on a single game. It's not about pride, or console war bullshit, that I hope nobody on this site actually takes seriously. It's about not being a stupid shopper

Ethan Fisher
Did I hit a nerve or something when I said buy an Xbox? I never said anything about how Emulation is bad, it's just that spending 6+ years waiting on something when you could just spend 200-300 to play it and also support the devs seems like a waste and it sounds like you are setting yourself up for some Duke Nukem Forever type situation where all that waiting will never live up
Jordan Jackson

I have a hard copy of it for my 360, which I still also have. It's not exactly lost tech either, they still sell 360 games at stores.
Elijah Brown

Brayden Parker
I'm cheap, I don't wanna spend 300 dollars on a single game, especially with MS bringing all their stuff to pc. It's literally just being smart with my money. Not sure how you're not seeing this.
There's nothing wrong with patience
Zachary Williams
6 years? Most people played it on the 360 or ps3 is what the thread says if you actually read it.
The xbox one version is the same visually. A native 720p resolution, with the same textures, texture filtering, and draw distances as before. The one key improvement is in that framerate.
So since I played it on my 360, why would I drop 300 dollars just to play it again when it looks the same just with more stable 30 fps /w drops when I want 1440p and 60 fps?
Nathan Mitchell
No, I said you should read this thread instead of shitposting. Your responses have already been covered and discussed. Your post comes off as if the sole reason for emulation to exist is so people who didn't play a game can play it, which is extremely small-minded and shitpost-y. Please stop shitposting Do you think 20 years from now that NES will still function perfectly?
Logan Peterson
>Do you think 20 years from now that NES will still function perfectly? why should it? not many 50 year old cars on the roads
Thomas Hall
alright
but when the game starts actually working and doesn't live up to your expectations you better not make a shitpost thread
The difference is a 360 user can already play the game while you can not, I just said Xbone because as it stands its the "superiour version"
I was talking specifically about Red Dead Redemption, its on you for putting words in my mouth and thinking I was including the rest of emulation
Jaxon Gomez
I played it on the ps3, 6 years ago like many others in this thread, again read the thread before you post you fucking cuck.
Dominic Rogers
Because its important that you be able to play NES games for as long as life itself continues to go on. Video games must be preserved. Emulation helps that. You still spoke as if the sole interest in this game being emulated is so people who've never played it got to play it. Which is still shortsighted and shitposty.
Parker Evans
>The difference is a 360 user can already play the game while you can not
I said I own a 360 already as in I already played and beat red dead but want it at 60 fps and 1440p.
I'll repeat it again since you seem to be illiterate. I own a 360 and beat red dead.
Robert Morales
>but when the game starts actually working and doesn't live up to your expectations you better not make a shitpost thread
Fine
Juan Scott
Underage leave.
Adrian Torres
There is nothing wrong with wanting to improve your game.
Logan Moore
you mean 30 fps
Charles Peterson
For a game like RDR, 30 FPS is all you need. 60 FPS is only needed in fighting and rhythm games.
Jeremiah Anderson
...
Brandon Scott
The idea is to preserve things BEFORE they get so near death that people are scrambling for shit. Imagine 100 years from now would that nes still be working? Could it be fixed if it wasn't?
What if all of those games could never be played ever again. It's good to work on this shit long before it ever gets to that point.
Parker Smith
>muh foresight This isn't the Mona Lisa. 10 or 20 years from now, no one will want to play Red Dead Redemption.
Hell, If people are really desperate for it, maybe Rockstar will port it to the PS6 or something. We don't need smelly basement nerds working to "preserve" video games.
Luis Reed
I appreciate the sentiment, but cartridge based systems even if neglected and in poor condition will probably still be functional with minimal maintenance for as long as someone keeps one around. Disc based systems though, not so much. In 10 years time it may be a novelty to have a functional 360 or PS3, they age like peeled bananas.
Aiden Gomez
That's the most astoundingly closed minded thing I've heard in a long time. I don't know whether I should hate you or give you a medal.
Kevin Phillips
>10 or 20 years from now, no one will want to play Red Dead Redemption. There are still people playing games made in the 90s nowadays. The 90s were 20 years ago. If people are still playing Final Fantasy V, Live A Live, and Ape Escape, what makes you so sure no one's going to be playing Red Dead 20 years from now?
And what does it matter if people care or not? These things ought' to be preserved. Please watch this video: youtube.com/watch?v=HLWY7fCXUwE

The only things a cartridge ever needs is battery replacement, on rare occasions a leaky capacitor may need to be replaced, and a good clean. Aside from extreme physical abuse, they'll never stop working.

Its making progress. If you want to play Disgaea games or something like Scott Pilgrim its serviceable. Otherwise, its about in the same spot as Xenia. Maybe slightly worse off. youtube.com/watch?v=UNxGCYluxbA Stop shitposting. You don't have to. Its okay to actually discuss and enjoy games here you know.
Spiderposters are constantly feeling inferior to humans and trying to prove themselves, that's all.
Don't get mad. I feel sorry for the poor little arachnafaggot.

Parker Watson
>>I've been buying,selling, and repairing video games and equipment for over 6 years. Maybe you can help me with a question, then.
I used to have a GBC that broke any cartridge you put into it. The games would work fine for maybe a week or two, and then permanently freeze on the bootup screen with that glitchy Nintendo logo.
The batteries were fine, and I don't recall anything obvious like scratched contacts. Fucked cartridges would remain fucked on any Game Boy you try it on. What was the problem?
Ryan Russell
No one cares when you fucking played it
Oliver Cruz
>buy a console
no
Sebastian Moore
I'm not a poorfag who has to rely on emulation. I also have no reason to want to replay another overrated rockstar piece of shit.
Levi Johnson
If people like you were in charge of film, nobody would be able to see A Trip to The Moon anymore. Please kill yourself, even if you were just trolling.
Hunter James
I hope it gets playable eventually. mostly since I know someone will mod it to have updated graphics on top of better resolution and framerate.
Asher Rivera
Even though they don't really interest me, I have bought and played RDR and Yakuza games JUST, SORELY and SIMPLY because mastard racers can't play them.
feels gut.
Asher Richardson
imagine if they said " no one will want to look at the mona lisa in 20 years.
Austin Rogers
it's true, you salty sony coon baboon.
Nolan Cook
Could be that the GBC is damaged causing a power surge in the cartridge that could be perpetuated until some of the cart's electrical components are damaged, in which case it'd be irreparable. This would only effect games with battery backup, Zelda games, Pokemon, Mario Deluxe, anything that actually has save files. More than likely they cartridge slot might just have something in it making the games dirty. Give the contacts of both your system and games a good clean with a q-tip and some alcohol, gently, don't scrub it to death. It'll probably start to work again after a few cleans.
Elijah Torres
You can suck dick for a year and be able to buy it, and emulation wouldn't be possible then
Dylan Garcia
Has original xbox emulation gotten anywhere yet or is it dead?

Gabriel Howard
Its even funnier when you see how hypocritical Nintendo is with regards to emulation. nintendo.com/corp/legal.jsp#emergence But yeah, that video is probably one of the best explanations for why emulation is a good thing and explaining its legal position in the current world. Its a shame a company had to go bankrupt to defend emulation though.
Evan Reed
How many times are you going to post this in the thread without actually reading the thread? This was addressed. Several times. I did not post mustard race crap in the OP. Stop shitposting and fuck off. Or contribute meaningful discussion.
Levi Brooks
This might be the most retarded post of the last month. Good job mate.
Jason Howard
please fuck off
Kayden Fisher
>I played RDR on ps3
Please don't.
Anyone who cares about videogames already has this game on 360 and feels no need to revisit it.
Camden Clark
Actually no, Nintendo's come right out and said they're out of NES parts anymore. Any parts to fix that NES of yours will have to be acquired second hand. At that point it becomes an inevitability that someday, that NES will cease to function and nothing can be done to fix it.
That's where the archival purposes of emulation come in.
