So I repaired our 1991 VCR for xmas yesterday, and I've been looking through all kind of recorded tapes to double-check what's written on their tags, and at the end of a movie, I found *this*

I cannot remember under which circumstances i somehow got videogame gameplay recorded on tape, i thought I never did.

martyste

This is sometime between 2004 and 2008.

martyste

Now I need to read the VCR's manual cuz as of rn i don't know how to record anything with my tapes.

Damn, nice

asterix vhs generation loss when Jokes aside, damn, I had my own VCR when I was a kid but it died around the mid 2000's when we also got me a DVD player. We have another one somewhere, a VCR + DVD player combo, but we only looked at itself. Only my father knew how to record videos onto tapes. He also digitised a small part of the cartoons I had on tape. The quality of this footage is like that of the trailers

looks like you're replaying the game

filip5011

and know what you're doing

filip5011

so probably after 2004

martyste

I started playing it at xmas 2003 sooo i had plenty of time to get good. However it is true, due to a lack of boss cutscene that it was a replay of the level, and very likely at a time I was allowed a memory card, but I forgot when.

martyste

Slides were the things i was best at in XXL, i'd replay them over and over...
