Outrun? Morrowind? Silent Hill 2? MvC2? Guilty Gear? Not a bad update.

And before you ask, 50Hz games still don't work over VGA.

Sorry to go off topic, but I think we may all benefit, if anyone knows where to buy JSRF standalone, post here. Pretty much everywhere seems to sell the JSRF/SegaGT double pack, which does NOT work over VGA.

Or if anyone has the single version but would like the double pack (because I think that works over Component/HDMI, and obviously has SegaGT too), we could have a little trade between eachother to get the version we want.

My local gamestation had a few copies a couple of weeks back.

CEX online has a fair few copies & tells you which store has them.

Nice update! Although I still wish they'd let us play import BC titles as well. Do they really care that much about old games!?

[Strider]

Does Panzer work properly?

[spinpug666]

Just tried Marvel vs Capcom 2, and it's an unplayable mess

[Jei]

Does Panzer work properly?

I'd like to know this too......without playing through the first few stages cause i'm lazy lol

[Kotatsu Neko]

Last I heard Panzer was still buggy on PAL systems. My NTSC 360 runs it fine though, so it may be worth giving it a shot anyway.

Just Email the crap out of them! Keep pushing and pushing and pushing guys!

Not sure where else to post this, but my brother reckons that while PAL Orta crashes on the cutscene at the end of level 3, you can skip the cutscene and continue - this true? If so, then it's no big deal.
