**** SMALL UPDATE ****
After listening to many Youtube videos of comparisons between Adlib / Soundblaster and Roland MT-32 / Sound Canvas devices i finally took the plunge and bought a
Roland MT-32 and Roland Sound Canvas SC55-MKII and boy was it worth it. Here's the best video I've found comparing them.

CNCFREAK'S MAKING OF GAME ROOM

03/03/13  
Tomorrow officially begins the renovation of my game room.  Major things have changed since the last i posted on it.  First thing is I won't be renovating the porch.  I now will be taking over the guest
bedroom of doom where all my extra computer / video game stuff was at.  At one point the room was full all the way to the door up to the ceiling with totes.  Now it all fits in a small utility room next to the
house.  And now some scary pictures of said room.  If kids are near by cover there eyes as it's pretty horrifying.  As changes are made I will update here until it's finally complete. A few words on why this
room looks like it does.  My wife is a social worker and one of her kids years and years ago was about to age out of the system and onto the street.  She took him in and needless to say this is what the
results were.  On a positive note, he a functional member of society and still calls her mom.




03/05/13
Another small update.  The work on the damaged floor and wall are done and here is another shot
of the room, after the work.  This Saturday, the carpet should be installed and early April the painting should be done and I will be able to move in.  Another pic soon.


03/09/13
Carpet has been installed and now just the painting needs to be done and i can move in.  WOO HOO.


04/06/13 ***** ROOM PAINTED *****

[NightSprinter]

Is it wrong for me to say that I found the computer version of Ultima III harder AND easier than the NES port at the same time?

[Master Phruby]

Ultima rocks! Love the gaming wall and the computer command center.
