Bon ce coup-ci ça a l'air bon .
Quelqu'un sait où je peux le commander ?
J'ai trouvé à 17 livres (environ 25 €) ici ( http://www.play.com) mais est-ce bien fiable ?
Quelqu'un a t il ce freeloader entre les mains ?

PS : ce forum est il mort car depuis une semaine y a plus que moi qui y poste ?

EDIT : Je viens d'aller voir au Dock Games , ils peuvent le commander et le vendent entre 40 et 45 €. blink.gif

Tout à fait le genre de remarque qui me plait ça. Alors justifions :
1 - J'ai en dehors de ma vie sur le forum une vie professionnelle assez chargée en ce moment, et il faut faire des choix.
2 - Visiblement tout le monde doit être occupé vu le peu d'interet pour la zone (où sont Ryo ? vampire hunter et autre ? surement occupé aussi).

et pour répondre à la question initiale
Pour le freeloader, il n'est toujours pas en vente. Il serait encore repoussé d'après ce que j'ai pu comprendre. A l'heure actuelle, les sites web proposent des pré-commandes, rien de concret. Après avoir fait un tour sur des sites anglais, allemand et espagnol, personne n'a eu le freeloader entre ces mains

C'était pas un reproche, nul besoin de te justifier...
Ceci dit je t'ai vu participer dans les autres zones du forum wink.gif

Pour le freeloader , il me semblait que ce coup-ci c'était pour de bon ...

Oui bon désolé j'ai réagit un peu trop "spontanément" comme on dirait.
Maintenant participé dans les autres zones, c'est un grand mot, 2 posts en 4 semaines ....

Bon maintenant je te remercie de poster et de t'inquiéter du devenir de la zone, mais toujours est-il qu'en ce moment j'ai l'impression que tout le monde s'en fout. C'est vraiment trop injuste (@Caliméro)

Des impressions de joueurs vues sur le forum d'IGN :

Hollywood Hasney:
OK, bugs then....

This seems very buggy, at least with Monkey Ball 2, and I know it's not the disc since I played it on a friends US console

Problems with this game:

Loading a game = crash
Pausing a game = crash

And I havn't bothered finding anymore yet

EDIT: Trying to watch the intro (not pressing start at the AV logo) = crash
---
OK, final thing....

If you select a region manually with the lid still closed and the Freeloader disc in... it crashed... BUT, I just did it with the lid open, then put MOnkey Ball 2 in and it's been fine, the places where it usually crashes (Intro, loading) it hasn't so far

Sure, it seems a pain in the arse so far, but it's well worth the effort

EDIT: Just noticed, it's now full-screen too

-Justice-:
I have got a little problem with Metroid Prime( US). No "Metroid"-Sign at the menu-screen and the game's FPS-rate is not even nearly close to 60 fps.
The disc is okay, already tried it with a US Cube and my PAL-Cube has never shown any problems before...
Any solutions to this problem? I tried booting without doing anything and I tried booting with selecting the US Flag but nothing helped

oscult
I have a problem with RE:zero, normal boot does not work and neither does method one.

Method 2 however works BUT when i play the game the quality is extremly poor, the voice acting is not woth the character and they talk real slow, when i fire a gun it takes about 10 secs for one bullet to fire, its that slow.

I'm trying to boot using method one using a few ways atm. But i have one question,

Im using the scart lead at the front of the T.V ( red,white, yellow ends which plug in the FRONT of the tv) could this effect my TV running the game in 60hz? should i get the proper cable and stuck it at the back of the tv like normal?
---
And I have got no problems to boot the game but at my first try the Metroid-Emblem in the Start Up screen was missing and the game was running very slow. As I tried again after I wrote the first posting it worked without a problem.
Both times starting the GC with the FL-Disc, pressing Z to access the "Region"-Window and inserting the Metroid game.
Hope it works from now on...

oscult:
Just got past the train in zero and noticed that the flames are blue and the characters are kinda grey.. is this normal?
---
Out of the 3 boot methods only the picking the flag one works, and thats the one with the terrible quality..

pinto:
i have problem with RE 0 and metroid prime. For RE i have the same problem like someone else in the forum blue colors and very slow action, i'm using the method two, for metroid when i'm using the first method the game running fine but when i use the elevator in the second level the game crashs, if i use the second method i can pass the elevator but blue colors come, with the first method i haven't the logo metroid, i'm very disappointed i'm just take this two games today!!!

Johelian:
Yeah, when I play AC it only randomly seems to load up on the Z-method. Otherwise, the screen stays black. Im using the official RGB on mine too...

Moiee
The Freeloader is not working for me either. I'm getting the same problems like everyone else. With Resi Evil 0, it will only boot up using the Z method but with this, the game is extremely slow and sound is messed up, making it unplayable. Metroid Prime runs using the first method, but the game is choppy when you move around. Monkey Ball 2 works with method 2 but crashes constantly. I'm using the official Nintendo Gamecube RGB Scart Lead.
Very disappointed with this. I paid £150 for all my import games when I heard this product was going to be released. What a waste of money. I don't believe this.

Jmax:
Well just to report to you guys wanting to play AC when you get F.L, it's working absolutely perfectly, it's a charm. No choppiness, no sound probs, infact it is really good. Well done Datel. I will now have months of fun on AC!

Hollywood Hasney:
try this, this is the only way I got it to work without crashes and may work on other games

Step 1) Boot up GC with lid open
Step 2) At Menu, move to Gameplay
Step 3) Close Lid... when disc has finished driving press A then Start
Step 4) Open lid when loaded
Step 5) Press Z and select USA region
Step 6) Insert Monkey Ball 2]

It works PERFECT when I do that, if I miss out the 1st 3 steps, it doesn't boot up at all always :?

nikleas:
alright for me it works perfectly (using one of the three loading method) with these us games:
eternal darkness, mario sunshine,star fox, soccer slam, beach spikers and yes metroid!

sometimes for metroid and beach spikers using the 2nd method, i got weird colors (such as red instead of blue or somethings like that) but when i start again it's gone. it happens one time for about thirty tries. so it's not often and not a big deal.

i didn't play much so i don't know if sometimes it crashes during the game, but i'll try tonight.

Moiee:
Resident Evil Zero (USA) -

This game has the biggest problem making it impossible to play currently. It will only run using the third boot method. When this game boots up after using the Freeloader, it is extremely slow and choppy, sound is messed up making it totally unplayable.

Metroid Prime (USA)

This game has various issues but is now perfectly playable for me. If I boot this game using boot methods 1 or 2 it will run, but the titles screen is completely blank with just the text and a black background. If you continue and start the game, it will be very choppy when you move Samus around. The screen moves very jerkily. Even though its playable like this, its not really recommended. Its like its trying to play it in 50hz, when the game wasnt designed to,be played like this. hence the strange choppiness.
Now when I first used boot method 3 on it, the game would load up, even having the full titles screen, but there would be one BIG problem. The colours of the game would be messed up completely, i.e. yellow is blue etc. However, (and this has completely baffled me) when I run the game using method 3 now, it runs perfectly, at 60hz with the right colours. I dont know why its suddenly started working with method 3. This just makes things more confusing.
---
Animal Crossing

Again, only works using method 3.

So it seems there are lots of problems with this Freeloader. Other people might have different experiences with these same games, but I am disappointed by it as I spent approx £150 on the import games, and I can't even play one of them. The problems also seem to be rather random which makes things even worse. Didn't Datel even test this properly? It's not like the games I tried are obscure and hard to find.

Bullet:
haven't seen a 100% success with any game yet actually.

Le point sur la situation :
Le FreeLoader est bien sorti (attention y a un "MAIS" plus bas) :

Personne n'y croyait plus et pourtant ! Prévu pour sortir l'été dernier, le célèbre Freeloader de Datel aura décidément su se faire attendre. Repoussé maintes fois, l'Arlésienne la plus célèbre de ces derniers mois est pourtant enfin là, physiquement, à la rédaction de Gamekult. On ne peut donc maintenant plus parler de supercherie ou de vaporware puisque le Freeloader a déjà commencé à envahir les boutiques spécialisées du pays et sera officiellement distribué dans les grandes chaînes de magasins dès le début de semaine prochaine à un prix conseillé de 19.90€ (source Bigben Interactive qui distribue ce produit en France). Rappelons enfin que cet accessoire providentiel a pour effet de rendre n'importe quelle GameCube multizones histoire de pouvoir profiter du catalogue des jeux imports GameCube. Pour le moment nous n'avons évidemment pas pu tester tous les jeux disponibles mais on peut déjà vous confirmer que cela marche et plutôt bien (seul Resident Evil Zero semble réfractaire), en attendant des impressions plus détaillées très prochainement.

MAIS :
[séquence rumeur mais info très probablement vraie]
Apparemment la première version mise en vente est la 1.04 qui déconne avec RE0 et Metroid notamment (de ce que je retire de ce que j'ai pu lire à droite à gauche). La version dispo à partir de la semaine prochaine dans les mags français serait la 1.06 (à vérifier en l'achetant tout de même - la version 1.04 étant à éviter absolument). Un échange gratuit pour ceux qui l'auraient acheté serait possible auprès de DATEL.
[/fin de la séquence]
