Okay, so from what I gather, the Master Quest version has no glitches, but the CE does.... am I right about that?

From my experience, yes, that is correct. I don't remember having any problems with the Ocarina of Time/Master Quest disc, only the Collector's Edition.

From my experience,the only game on the Collector's Edition that suffers from problems is Majora's Mask; the game experiences frame rate issues,some weird audio glitches,and it occasionally freezes.

I did have issues with Ocarina of Time on that disc but they were MUCH less frequent than Majora's Mask, I will say. To sorta amend what I said, OoT can potentially give you issues, but they probably won't be severe enough to make the game almost unplayable (or at least annoyingly so). Majora's Mask is another story...

I've been trying to find a solid copy of LoZ: Ocarina of Time Master Quest or LoZ: Collector's Edition for GameCube recently, but I have a read in a few places that the ports have a few glitches. I also read in other cases that the only version of the port that has issues is the Zelda: CE version.

I need to know from first-hand experience...Do both copies have problems? If so, what are the glitches, and are they common?

Thanks.

I own both of those and I don't remember having any problems with Ocarina of Time/Master Quest. However, the Collector's Edition does have issues with stuttering and occasionally freezing. I will say that the freezing happened often enough that I stopped playing it after a while. I remember I was literally approaching the boss room of a time-consuming dungeon in Majora's Mask and the game froze, forcing me to hard reset my GCN. That was the last straw for me. The freezing was an issue with both GCN Zelda's on the disc. I didin't play Zelda I and II all that much so I can't speak for those games for sure, but what I did play of those were glitch-free.

[QUOTE="VMan"][QUOTE="JangoWuzHere"]Crysis does not but warhead does.paullywog
According to reclaimyourgame both versions have it.

i think warhead has install limits. which is why sadly i will have to go without playing it for the sake of making a statement for the benefit of all current and future pc gamers.

I understand. I have a configuration well-capable of running the games but I'm passing on it due to the DRM as well.

If you actually read the article those developers both state that the level was going to be cut with or without DLC - their forced schedule was preventing them from finishing it. Eidos just made the decision to take that level that had already had work done on it and instead of throw it away completely, just make it available as DLC. That way they would be able to extend their time working on it, and also make a bit more money on it in the process.

It sucks that Underworld was rushed out the gates, I did play it and I did enjoy it for what it was, but it was obvious that there was some stuff lacking as well. The way I look at it is if you want the extra level, you'll be able to get it eventually. If you don't want it, then don't buy it.

If those forum posters are legit, the article clearly presents developers stating indeed content was purposely held back.

This honestly didn't surprise me in the slightest. I've stated in discussion here multiple times in the past my belief that developers do this.

I believe there was one for the PS2. Used a mic, and it pretty much sucked. I think one of the levels on GameSpot is named in honor of it.Video_Game_King
I'm assuming you're referring to Lifeline. I actually really appreciated Lifeline in the way that it literally makes YOU, the player a part of the game, an actual participant/cast member if you will. And I found it quite unique and charming in how your relationship develops with your partner, especially on an emotional level. This is perhaps most exclaimed by the fact that she

[spoiler] may actually fall in love you, that is YOU, the player, not a character that you control [/spoiler]

Largely because of that, Lifeline is actually one of the most memorable PS2 games I have and its one of my favorites.

[QUOTE="whisperingmute"]There's a PS2 game where you play some guy who can control a giant robot. You have to get ontop of bridges and tall buildings to get a better view of your robot when batteling other robots and monsters. Anyone ever heard of this game for the PS2? I know it starts with an "R".... can't remember.whisperingmute

Robot Alchemic Drive. Amazing gameplay and one of my most treasured PS2 games, actually.

Yeah, that's it. Wouldn't that be considered 2nd person? It's not a shooter but close enough. Anothe game is Siren, that has you seeing yourself through enemy eyes.

I think you could only consider it 2nd Person if "you" are the robot. IMO, the game is a mixture of 1st and 3rd person. 3rd Person when controlling the protagonist, then first person with respect to the protagonist when you're commanding the robots.
