Panasonic 3DO FZ-1
Panasonic 3DO FZ-1
After almost giving up at a local car boot sale right at the very last stall I came across a Panasonic 3DO FZ-1 which I picked up with all cables, 1 controller and a few games for £30. Probably about the same as I would've paid on ebay although without the hassle of shipping so not a bad deal!! Tried a few games so far including Road Rash, can't complain about the ROCK soundtrack some very nice Soundgarden and Therapy samples...although I am getting worried about the "ROCK THEME" going throughout all the games i've tested. Was it some legal requirement that all developers use a ROCK soundtrack for 3DO games or something!?!

3DO was modern console in bad age... I loved "The horde", Road Rash, WC III and the very strange "Psychic Detective".
Yes, I have a 3DO, but is broken in disc-tray , normal problem in my second hand CD consoles (CDi, 3DO, computer X_D).
FreeDO is very Powerfull emulator... and works very well !!!
A couple of my fav titles are-
What games would you recommend for the 3DO, what was THE defining game that identifies the PANASONIC 3DO platform?
Star control(with a brilliant 2 player game as well)
Need for speed(starting to look a bit dated)
Wing commander III(heart of the tiger)
PO'ed(first person shooter)
Syndicate
Return fire
and also Space hulk(based on the games workshop game)
