Re: (Downpour) Fishing Rod

I don't know if it's a guaranteed way to get it, but I found it by just picking up the items before even talking to the homeless man to get the quest.

Re: Rough Graphics?

I don't think this TV has anything but composite. I've heard people complain about PSOne Classics on an HD TV. Is it still better than an SD TV and some people are just using wrong settings for it? I just figured old games would look better on the TVs that they were made for (well, as in the TVs tha...

Re: Rough Graphics?

If you had the actual game disc and then used Smoothing, it'd look better. I had the same issue with a PSOne game I'm playing now on the PS3; when I first put it into the system and saw what it looked like I was like, "WTF?" but with smoothing it looks like I'm playing it on a PSX/PS2. I ...

Re: Rough Graphics?

Yeah. :P
I don't have many good stores here that sell older games or systems. I saw a used copy of the game once years ago (the last time I saw it), and it was $40. A bit much for me for this game.

thy_butcher: Yes, the Lisa videotape.

silenthell88: Yeah, I have seen it running on an emulator and I was a little disappointed when I saw how much worse it looked on PS3. I don't have a disc copy to run on an emulator though and I wanted to pay for the game fairly.

Re: Rough Graphics?

OK. Thanks. I ended up playing through most of the game today and thankfully I just got so into the game that I forgot about being bothered by the grain square things. Though now I started noticing bits of dialogue missing during cutscenes or cutting off abruptly. Like the subtitle might say "W...

Rough Graphics?

I just started playing this on PS3 as a PSN PSOne Classic. I'm using an SD TV. The graphics look really rough. I don't mean the textures or the blocky 3D, I mean...it looks like the screen is covered by little dots or squares. This is the only game I have this problem with. http://img.gamefaqs.net/s...

Re: Shadow Play Glitch?

There was a token I couldn't move either (not sure if it's the same one as you...I think mine was the topmost one), but I didn't need to move it. If you have all the tokens and it's not working, then it should be some other token that's misplaced.

Re: Downpour Gameplay Advice Thread

Every time I tried to use an underground tunnel, there were locked doors that stopped me. How did you get past these doors? Was there a key or tool I missed? Did you talk to the homeless man in one of the subway entrances? He starts a sidequest that you eventually need the Fishing Rod for. I THINK ...

Re: (Downpour) Fishing Rod

phantomess : Yeah. I've checked the dock, the side of the house at the dock, and the sewer across the street. Harlequin: That's the impression I was under. I guess it's a bug. :( I just moved on ahead and finished the game since that Fishing Rod seems to be glitched. Maybe I'll try for it again if ...

Re: Main Themes of Downpour (huge spoilers)

I wanted to get this down before I forgot it - but one of the themes I picked up on was the anxiety of judgment and shame. Murphy comments early on that he feels more comfortable in prison, that he was happy to get away from society. I think the futility you mentioned played into this, as well. Car...

(Downpour) Fishing Rod

Does anyone know where the Fishing Rod for the beggar is? I'm playing on PS3 on Normal puzzle difficulty. I mean from first-hand experience, by finding it yourself, not where you've read or heard where it's supposed to be. I've looked in 3 different places that it's supposed to be, based on what I'v...

Re: (Downpour) Question-Marked House on Map in Hillside

On another message board, it was suggested that the question marks simply mark buildings that can be entered. It sounds like that might be it, now that I've played a little further.

Re: Downpour Gameplay Advice Thread

I'm only playing on Easy combat difficulty, so this may not work on higher difficulties. But with Screamers (and some other enemies), I normally just run right at them (assuming they're just standing there or walking towards me, and not in the middle of an attack) when I see them and attack until th...

(Downpour) Question-Marked House on Map in Hillside

I'm in Hillside right now and there's a house on the map that has a question mark drawn on it. It's the house where you enter through the basement window. I went inside and I THINK I did everything there was to do, but the question mark is still there. Is there a side quest or something to clear at ...

Thanks for the responses. I'll probably pick it up when I have the time to play it.
