    I am still here and will update the list (I did fix the small error though that Omega pointed out)

    I have just been busy with work ect (They have been over working me)

    When I feel I have time though the list will get fully updated

    I have noticed that a lot of the games reported though are already on the list anyway, though in some sense it is nice to get verification, but the original credit will not change unless the status changes i.e. if the original listing says the game is not working and the update says it is working then the credit will be changed otherwise the original credit will remain

    Please also try and avoid using abbreviations I realy don't feel like looking through tons of game titles trying to figure out what game you have listed

    Skeleton Warriors actually reauthenticates the disc at the logo screen. It's going to need a patched disc image to work.

    I'm a new guy here but decided to help out a bit with the list. I tested the following with Pseudo Saturn:

    Three Dirty Dwarves(U) Boots fine, plays fine
    Shinobi X(E) Boots fine, plays fine
    Bulk Slash(J) Boots fine, plays fine

    I will be trying more. Thank you all (especially Cyberwarriorx) for this awesome mod.

    To be honest I would rather wait for the next version to actually get compiled, the source code is done from what I can tell though.

    One of my mini projects was to go and re-test all of the 0.30 discs with v0.31, which wouldn't take too long i don't think. I also have the MPEG card for my saturns so i can test a bit further with those.

    I was going to add all of my updates but you only have comments enabled.

    Since Pseudo doesn't really see a difference between pressed and burnt, tests using originals should be just as good as using backups, right?

    Only if you use a proper backup and didn't get any burn errors on them. You'd have to test the disc for the latter if you use imgburn though, since it seems to stay silent about burning errors.

    edit: actually, on second thought, it might be better to avoid backups whenever possible. So problems related to backups are not mixed up with problems related to Pseudo. Too many things can go wrong with backups (bad rips, bad media, bad burner hardware, bad burner software, bad laser on the Saturn, etc).

    Does not work for me. It goes to a black screen and then after waiting some time a checkered pattern appears wherein I press Start and it goes to another black screen.

    Good point. I'll add a column to the list to ask if the test was done by a backup or an original disc.

    Um, none of that is true at all. Backups will work just fine as long as they are done right. The "avoid backups" comment is quite possibly the single dumbest fucking comment I've heard since we started dumping roms in the late 90's. We officially have a winner.

    I thought the whole point of Pseudo was to run "backups"? Though I guess you are saying by using original discs you can rule out potential bad reports related to people that have bad rips/burns of games. But I think you can overcome that if you have people verifying reports and providing enough information particularly if they are reporting a problem.

    The fact of the matter is that i don't want to create burns of my originals right now. I'm packing up to move and the saturn and some imports are all that i plan on keeping out.

    Pseudo is basically a custom bootloader. It should be booting both originals and backups using its own logic. So testing originals vs backups would make no difference, unless you burned a bad/incomplete backup (or if the game checks the security ring multiple times, but only 1 game is known to do that).

    Multiple reports would be a good idea, but that would require much more contributors, and things are bound to get hard to follow if you end up with multiple people reporting different things. Even regional differences can cause odd errors, like booting early prints of Soukyugurentai on a US console (runs in English with some gfx errors), or running Xmen vs Streetfighter on a PAL console (goes out of whack).

    It's a pretty good comment actually. I've been testing games for the Open PS2 Loader team for a while now and I already found ALL SORT of garbage that people were trying to play as "legitimate" PS2 backups. Like games with their license ID changed, games "repacked" with their image rebuilt with IMG BURN, games which had been attempted conversion from CD to DVD media and etc. It's actually A VERY FAIR warning against TAMPERED DUMPS.

    Edit: Hit the wrong reply button. Fixed.

    tested asuka 120% mod LIMIT OVER and worked fine. This modded game lacks some dialogues, and most screens, and menus are simply black, no backgrounds. Tested on stock model 1 Hi-Saturn, screen capture follows - http://instagram.com/p/waybZsHnOE/

    If you don't mind me asking, is there other modded sega saturn games out there or is that the only one?
