    Is this the biggest thread on AA yet? This is crazy! :P

     

    I know I've got some finds in here somewhere. Like 200+ pages back or something. Damned if I can find them. This thread is so long now that the "print thread" mode and search in browser doesn't even work anymore. :|

     

    I must say, I never understood some forums that have a post count limit on threads, but I do now. ;) Yeah, 200 posts/replies per thread, then it autolocks and you have to start another one. Hmmm, we'de be up to "The Official 'Thrift finds' Thread - Part 33" now. :lolblue:

    i think this economy will cause many forgotten games to surface.........as people are trying to make money anyway they can cleaning out there attics, basements and closets.

    Can everyone who owns an Air Raid please PM me their complete address and list of days & times they are away from home. :ponder: ;) :P

    Anywho, to bring this back somewhat on topic.

     

    Question about Jr.Pac-Man. Not this version in particular but Jr.Pac-Man in general.

     

    Most of the pac-man games all have a specific maximum score you can achieve per level. All dots + eat all ghosts on every power pill + all fruits/bonuses.

     

    This rule doesn't apply to Jr.Pac-Man, does it?

     

    I'm assuming no because the bonuses change the value of dots it touches and that is an inconsistant variable since you'll be eating them. That and also since power pills kill the bonuses, as you eat the power pills, you leave open areas where the bonus could travel further and effect other dots. I don't even see a strict pattern as being possible to achive this since the variables that effect bonuses change during play.

     

    :ponder:

    i dont want to change the subject, but whats stopping him from making another account? no one would ever know it was him if he chooses a completly different name. unless you do something with the computer address or whatever its called so it can be identified right away, i think something like that can be done, but then again, im by no means a computer expert

    *Edit - nevermind, don't want to give the guilty party any new ideas.

    It wouldn't matter. Even if they did what they needed to do to not be detected instantly, they would still be found out soon enough. Everyone inherently has their own personalities and writting style that gives them away.

    However, I'm at all suprised at this response,especially from you. It's also not suprising your attitude

    that no one cares. A lot more people care than you care to admit to or wish concede to.

    And yet you spend so much time here on a site that hosts 100's of evil copyrighted roms, many without explicit permission.

     

    Hey Al, don't you know your taking the food right out of people's mouths, raping their wives and murdering their pets.......

     

    :roll:

    Interesting. They are reproducing actual club dynamics. Which I guess means if you suck at real golf, you'll suck here too. :P

     

    All they need to add is a pressure pad to stand on for detecting foot placement and balance. :ponder:

     

     

     

     

    And the best golf game evar is Tee Off Golf on the Dreamcast. :P

    Whoops, missed this..

     

    Dang, Artlover, did someone pee in your Wheaties or what? I mean, like, wow, that's a lot of stress to take all this out on everyone, ya know? Have you tried deep breathing exercises? They may help you.

    :P

    I just want to live out my darkest perverted twisted anti social fantasies without worring about going to jail is all. :cool:

    Lets all ignore real shipping cost and what not. Not the point.

     

    He specificly stated "Free Shipping". End of story.

     

    He's pissed he didn't get as much as he thought he would and is trying to change the terms & conditions of the auction after the fact. He can go eat it.

    Yeah, there was much debate on that. DP has two primary game forums - Classic and Modern. But where to draw the line? Rather than try to define some "Neo-Classic" era or some-such nonsense, "Modern" was decided as any game system currently on the market and supported. "Classic" is everything else. Hence the rather odd line.

    Gee, isn't that about how the Classic & Modern gaming forums HERE are also set up? :ponder:

    You obviously haven't played Halo 3 online or you would know the differences between it and the other games you mentioned. Do me a favor, don't discuss topics you don't have a clue about Artlover. Thanks.

    So you're saying Halo3 doesn't have CTF & DM?

     

    Yes, I know it also has things like on-line campaign co-op too. That actually is pretty cool.

     

    I've played the original Halo in splitscreen co-op with friends before. Pretty fun.

    We're just a bunch of people talking.

     

    We're not in school. We're not writting papers to be judged & graded. We're not writting great novels for the annals of history. We're not documenting current life for the benefit of descendants centuries into the future.

     

    People who correct other people over typos and spelling and grammer just seem to want to say something without having anything to say. Worse, it's usualy done for the purpose of trying to detract or invalidate what someone else says, as if the meaning/value/truth/knowledge of anything said is any less so because of it.

     

    One can say: "A kumpewtur helps u doo stuf. U tipe on a keebord to inter kahmends and kan sea rezuhltz on a monater".

     

    We can call them ignorant, but they still demonstrated they understand the concept of what a computer is and how it works.

     

    In an informal setting, where it doesn't matter and is irrelevent, people don't appreciate know-it-all's chiming in for no purpose other then correcting them.

    However I learned from Halo 3 a short single player experience is Ok as long as the online aspects are top-notch.

    Let me start with a ZP quote... "But people have been telling me that the multiplayer excuses it, unfortunately I don't give a flying shit about multiplayer and nither do alot of people. - A game that is supposed to be perfect wouldn't need anything to excuse it."

     

    With that out of the way.

     

    Multiplayer. Yes. Things like Capture the Flag and DeathMatch. - WOW, you mean it's like Doom, Quake, Team Fortress, Tribes, Unreal Tournament, Digital Paintball, Call of Duty and a multitude of other multi players games that are exactly the same thing going back for decades, only with Halo 3 graphics this time. :ponder:

     

    I dunno what says more; That campaign mode needs to be excused, or that the excuse is an unoriginal clone of something done a 100 times before. :P

    This is great. :cool: Finish it, damn it! :P

     

    Anywho...

     

    I tried it under Stella, and it works.

     

    Then I tried it under EMU7800, which is 2600 compatable, and it doesn't work. For what it might be worth, here is a log dump.

    A2600NTSC ready

    TIA 1A reset

    PIA/RIOT M6532 reset

    M6502 CPU (PC:$d0f2) reset

    Machine A2600NTSC reset complete: 60 HZ 262 scanlines

    M6502 CPU:**UNKNOWN OPCODE: $e3 at $d1bd

    M6502 CPU:**UNKNOWN OPCODE: $e3 at $d1bd

    M6502 CPU: Processor Jammed

    I was wondering which was better. The 5200 or the CelecoVision.
    It's subjective, Just have them both.

    If only everyone would follow that advice in the Atari vs Commodore thread. :ponder:

     

    Anywho, yeah. Different machines, different capabilities, both have their good games & bad. Get 'em both, or in lieu of that, get the one that has the most games that interest you.
