  1. Well the oldest is at scout camp for the week learning to scuba dive, snorkel and shotgun shooting. What a life he has!

      They have underwater shotguns? Kual!

      Yup. Just like in Thunderball!!!

  2. I don't know. I think he really likes it!
  3. Whatever it comes out to be, I would put the XEGS in the same generation as the 5200. They are the same machine for the most part. IMHO, I think the XEGS is just another A8 with a detached keyboard and not a console but that is a different argument.
  4. Best: Sega Master System Jaguar Atari 5200 XBox 360S PS4 Sega CDX Worst: XBox One XBox 360e Sega CD/32x
  5. That just pisses me off that Indies need publishers now. What's the point of being an indie if you need a publisher? Can't we be our own publisher? Morons!
  6. Heaver sixer for Christmas in '78. I was nine at the time. My dad was worried I would break the tv when I installed it. Truth be told, if he installed it, the tv would have been broken.
  7. The problem with today's youth is that none of them know how to play the arcade version of Asteroids.

      Or this (from Trekker_1138 - gotta give credit where credit is due): Atati was a Kazakstani version of the Atari VCS. It operated at .0005566 mhz and featured 67 bits of RAM. Its pack in game was "Space Minefield" where the player would guide a spacecraft represented by a single dot around an asteroid belt that the player himself created by taping little bits of paper to the TV screen.

      That shows more creativity than most kids could muster.

  8. I wonder what the reaction would be if Apple really did turn the Apple TV into a real console?
  9. Microsoft is screwed either way. Why doesn't Apple have these problems?
  10. Well here are some articles about how the internet just f-uped the XBox with it's outcry on DRM. http://gizmodo.com/the-xbox-one-just-got-way-worse-and-its-our-fault-514411905 http://microsoft-news.com/a-vocal-minority-of-idiots-journalists-ruin-innovations-on-the-xbox-one/
  11. We do not need another thread on this. Can we get it locked?
  12. At my local Goodwill, I found four original XBoxs and three Playstations. There always seems to be those systems. Other rarer systems I found was a N64 and Gamecube. I did find a NES controller and some snes games like Killer Instinct. I'm still hoping to see a Neo Geo. Hey, I can dream!
  13. The problem with digital downloads is that they are nothing but an 'use license'. This means the publisher can delete the game at any time they want no matter how much you paid for it. EA might decide to delete your Madden 2013 when 2014 comes out. Also if you don't play by the rules of XBL, you lose your entire library. Downloads mean you own nothing except the temporary right to play.
  14. Still $100 is only a game and half. They could include a pack-in for the difference to soften the blow.
  15. Wow! That's pretty amazing. They actually heard the groaning and bellyaching of the gamers. Now lets see them release a package without the Kinect for $100 cheaper. They could at least include a game for the difference. It makes me wonder why they thought all those policies were good ideas that the gamers would just accept.
  16. So if the cartridge says 1.05 it really means 1.2?
  17. I'm a little confused. My Harmony cart says bios 1.05 so I downloaded the HarmonyCart-1.2-win32.exe (3.8 MB) and flashed the bios. The system said it was successful. I put the cart in my 7800 and it still said bios 1.05. Did I need to download something more?
  18. How do you get rid of eye floaters?

      Throw rocks at them from a distance, or don a blindfold (or towel) and engage in melee. Be sure to consume the corpse for telepathy.

      It sounds like you might need to see an eye doctor.

  19. I was planning on switching the AV cord between my Gamecube or the N64 so I think I'm good there. As for games, I'm pretty much looking for the classics like Mario 64, Zelda, StarFox, Shadows of the Empire and Golden Eye to start.
