Monster Madness Cancelled
7 years ago
A project of mine falling through? I know, shocking.
Though in my defence, the reason this time was out of my hands. If anything, blame Nintendo.
To cut a long story short, most horror games I wanted to cover were on PS1. The PS1 emulators don't work with external CD drives. This meant I have realistically have 3 options.
1- Buy an internal drive. Not going to happen. I don't want to faff around opening my PC for a minor "for fun" project.
2- Download ISO. Possible, but Nintendo has been cracking down on reliable rom sites recently. And I don't want to download a 400gb "Complete Playstation collection" torrent. (On a side note, 400gb seems a bit small for every PS1 game)
3- Faff around ripping my own isos, mounting virtual drives, etc. Possible, but when I did that in the past it was way more hassle than it was worth. It also adds an extra layer of toubleshooting if a game doesn't work.
Anyway, no big loss. I could still do text reviews if people really want that, but I doubt anyone cares that much.
