Playing Die Hard
« on: June 02, 2005, 08:47:55 pm »
Die Hard was one of my favorite games a few years ago.  Is there any way to get this playing on MAME or any other emulator?  I know Mame doesn't utilize my video card, so my Athlon 64 3500 and 1 gig of ram isn't enough to run the game.
Or is it all sega arcade games don't work on emulators?
Thanks

I play Die Hard all the time, I bought the motherboard and cartridge!!

LOL.  I have it on my Saturn.  Good game.  I have almost the exact same setup BWK900.

I played both in the arcade. They;re just two games that are very similar. I guess cause they're both made by Sega?

Gnateye is correct.  The Dynamite Cop series was brought stateside in arcades via the use of the Die Hard license.  When they no longer had the license for the US games, they reverted to the Dynamite Cop game.
