Ok i have hear of this super WC, And i have found that is for 3DO and MAC, if ther any version for pc of this game? It is posible to make it son on a pc?

 

[Ghost]

i don´t think so.

 

[Bandit LOAF]

Just 3DO and Mac.

The best way to play it on PC (read: what I do) is to purchase a 3DO (a few bucks on eBay), and an ATI TV card (retail $49.95) and mix them together so you can play 3DO games in Win9x.

A 3DO Emulator? Why'd you even want one?

 

[Bandit LOAF]

No, no 3DO emulators.

'cause I really want to play that game on the pc, I love to play game on pc, buy i think i will buy the game and the 3do, play the game and keep the 3do to play it againg later

You can also get Wc3 for 3DO, which is rather different from the PC version...

iirc SWC on 3DO had the worse voice talent I ever had the misfortune to hear. Paladin appeared to be voiced by a leprechaun (or another equally bad Irish stereotype).

WC3 on 3DO was a great version of the game though.

 

[Bandit LOAF]

He had a Scottish accent, though.

 

[Dak]

Yes, a very bad one. I was crying with laughter when I first heard it.

 

[Bandit LOAF]

I'd say it was less thick than his accent in WC2, though.

 

[Greywolf]

Well, it is still better than a Frenchman trying to play a Scot.

 

[LeHah]

Tcheky's a damn fine actor, Grewolf! Ever see the movieLa Femme Nikita???

If you can find it, Creative Labs created the 3DO Blaster.

Yes, I know this is like holding a carrot in front of a horse.

It's just easier to buy a regular 3DO. They made thousands of those, but not many 3DO Blasters, really. Plus the 3DO Blaster is a VLB board, which means only old and yellow computers can use it

I'd just as soon go out and buy a 3DO console. They're one of God's Greatest Gifts to Gaming®. Nobody respects it because it was too far ahead of its time. And by the time its price came down and it finally got a true competitor in Sega's vaunted Saturn (CDi doesn't count because it sucked,) - which despite being about 8 times "faster" by virtue of its dual 28MHz CPU configuration, failed to significantly improve on the 3DO's performance specifications - it was so long in the tooth nobody wanted one anymore.

It's really too bad, they were fantastic machines.

 

[Bandit LOAF]

I think you need a creepy old Creative Labs one speed CD to run a 3DO Blaster, or somesuch.

ANd a million dollars to buy one from a crazy 3DO person.

 

[Frosty]

A specific model 2x. Which is dumb because Creative made 900 varieties of 2x CDROMs.

A 1x would seem really wierd because it would load at half the 3DO's normal load speed.
