Quick Questions XVI: Answer Time Lore

I wish the UI icons that appear in The Third Dimension showed up more often elsewhere. We could do with more buttons like “Dolphin”, “Cow Shrink”, and “Wacky :wrench: :chart_with_upwards_trend:”.

Sometimes I feel like the world still has yet to truly reckon with '90s PC games, despite everything…

I couldn’t decide if this should go in the boardgame thread or the ttrpg one, so it’s going here.

Does anyone know what this is from? There’s no trademark or manufacturer’s name or anything on it.

is that the same pod that got a sequel on dreamcast?

iirc, the original was advertised as the first ever online racing game. i don’t remember the name being an acronym for planet of death though

I definitely want to get this applied to a GC jewel and added, like these:


Anyone know of a good way to do this? I see the there’s stickers available, but I remember there was a cool little kit for doing this back in the day:

Which makes me think there’s gotta just be a way to get this printed onto a circle cut to the right size, then apply the transparent faceplate over it.

Does anyone know who did what on the Contra (the) Hard Corps soundtrack?

The score was written by Hiroshi Kobayashi, the secondary composers were Michiru Yamane, Akira Yamaoka, Hirofumi Taniguchi, and Aki Hata.

This is all I can find. I know there’s a CV remix in there so that is probably Yamane… I’d love to know more

I have a bunch of these in a cd binder in the family basement, if you need other game ISOs I can grab them next year

What’s the ammo you’re meant to give/not give Sheva in Resident Evil 5?

the AI usually has pretty good aim so you can trust her with a sniper rifle to cover you. There is always lots of handgun ammo so you can’t go wrong with that. If you tell her to cover you she’ll mostly use the handgun, and if you tell her to attack then she’ll bring out the sniper rifle.
