Also, do people still have CDs? I do, but I am old. Things are much less forgiving, and unless you adjust your HDTV settings or play on an SDTV, you will lose due to lag. It doesn’t want to hurt you, so if you play a little off time, it tries not to be too mean about it. It also helps that the game is already quite forgiving. If you adjust your timing so that instead of pressing the button on the beat, you let go of the button on the beat, you may do better.

This lag does not make the game unplayable. As many of you know, there is lag when playing PS1 games on a PS3 connected to an HDTV. What’s not perfect is its presentation on HDTVs. Do better, and your world gets better, then you get better. Eventually, you may devolve from a rabbit man into a frog, then a worm. The tempo slows down and speeds up in ways independent of logic. Lyrical content includes life, death, shopping, and more.

Samples of cute people, pitch-shifted children and tough sounding rappers permeate. They are performed in the late 90’s avant-garde pop-club DJ style (see: Jet Grind Radio). The soundtrack is the real star of the game. First you must learn what button to press when faced with what obstacle, then you must learn to combine button presses when faced with combined obstacles (spiky walls, loop holes, etc). These are obstacles in the path of Vibri, our hero. The language is made of combinations of loops, spikes, holes, and walls. Vib-Ribbon teaches you a new visual language that you must learn in order to progress. With this article, I will do my best to follow in his footsteps by using as few lines as possible in my effort to convey to you the joy of Vib-Ribbon. Vibri, the game’s star, is a lovable scamp with tons of personality. It’s amazing how NanaOn-Sha was able to create such charming and memorable characters with just a few lines. Hence the black and white vector-based graphics. The game’s code had to be small enough to be stored in the PS1 on its own. That’s part of why the game has such minimalist visuals. You could then play levels based on the sounds found on that CD. The original game allowed you to take the disc out of the PS1 and replace it with any CD. It came to the United States for the first time just recently, by way of PSN. Vib-Ribbon is a game by NanaOn-Sha (P arappa the Rapper, UmJammer Lammy) that was originally released on the PS1.
