Escape from Cyber City

Not being able to play this game is the only thing stopping me from buying the emulator :-P Why won't it play and what work needs to be done?

Poor poor battleships :( doesn't really work either. But some people have been able to. Is there a way to skip scenes etc. using the debugger?

It needs a DVC, which is not emulated (yet).

Nonono Windowskiller, you're wrong about that.....

Escape from Cybercity does NOT need the DVC ;)

Are you sure? I know the back cover doesn't say that a DVC is needed, but when I tried it once on a player without a DVC, it did not start.

Must have been another problem then. The player it didn't work on is already sold, fortunately... :wink:

To add, I think (but I'm not sure!) the DVC wasn't even introduced when Escape from Cybercity hit the market!

Bas is right!

It most certainly doesn't need DVC! I remember distinctly only having to buy DVC when that crazy game Litil Divil came out - I was at the ripe old age of five years old and was disappointed for months until my parents got me one for doing well at school :)

I live in constant envy of this man:

Youtube - Escape from Cyber City in 5 minutes

And I will still not rest until I complete it.

And in answer to your question, I'm using my neato 910 Rom 8) the CDI-Link was flawless.
