  1. NICE! I love how the co-processor gives the Atari more oomph.

  3. I've got two tickets to the gun show.

      I have a speeding ticket.

  4. The Dell Stinger was a Cream-colored box (basically the color of the dreamcast) with a curved front panel for an extra fan if you wanted to be sure your RAM didn't get too hot. When overclocking, it's necessary.
  5. Are you sure about that? According to the manual, all of the x86 processors from the 386 on are still supported by the most recent version of GCC. I'd be surprised if they completely drop support for older processors like the 386; there is still a lot of code which won't support optimizations for more recent processors. And believe it or not, a lot of original Pentium hardware is still in active use. sadly, they have. if the Processor (X86 family) doesn't have Conditional Move, it won't compile at all. GCC 3 was the last version to support the 586. any attempts to compile will have programs to crash hard with a SIGILL. And it's really a shame. This could be fixed, but after all the folks at the DJGPP newsgroup found that it wouldn't be fixed in the main source tree, they were devastated.
  6. Well, I keep it around because it plays the old IBM compatible games perfectly. Even Digger plays well on it, that's a 1983 game. The reason I say it's classic now is that support for the 586 is dropping like a rock. not even GCC will compile code for it anymore.
  7. I've always wondered what old IBM PC clones fit into the "classic" computer zoo. They're different than most other computers, but they also had video games, like Duke Nukem II , Doom, and others. I have been working on one of these IBM clones for a while (Dell Stinger) and wondered if anyone else collects these IBM PC Compatible computers like I do. I have about 8 of them. The best one I had was an IBM PC300, but it died a few years back.
  8. Typing this on my Win95 computer. Atariage's layout really suffers on a 800x600 display.

      Windows 95, huh? What browser are you running? IE5 is the last version of IE which still supported '95, as I recall.

  9. I'm interested. Famicom on the go!
  10. Listening to the Akumajou Densetsu soundtrack. I just love Famicom music.

  11. I have very high hopes for Java. After Doom was ported successfully to Java, I was really shocked at what you could do on it. I can see some games ahead that could really use this language.
  12. eh, I'm not caring about stock, I just want both sides to work. I'll check it with that.
  13. I like TF, and I like TF2, it's more of a simplified version of TF, with a wider appeal. Personally, I think its simplified play is what makes it so fun. it's one of those games that do NOT need a manual. you can just grab a controller and "play".
  14. Watching Nintendo at E3 right now. Jaw Dropping. Everything is social.

  15. Sounds like the dc jack might be damaged. I had this happen with a Model 3 Genesis.
  16. My opinion is: if you can make it work, and make it fast, then make it portable, you're on the right path. I know a few emulators that worked on portability first, ended up being very slow (but at least you could play it on a NEXT or something)... The emulator that worked on the principle I liked was FCEUX. While Nestopia is accurate, it's slow. FCEUX found a way to be snappy and largely accurate. though, it did take quite a few years.
  17. I live in Alabama. The only way to protect your investment is to build a bunker.
  18. Well yeah, you can buy super cool "apparel" for your character, but most of the weapons are gotten with achievements or the reward system. There's nothing you can't get for free in the game, sans some silly hats or shirts or whatnot. Edit: Skyrim is the same way now. And so is DOTA 2. looks like everyone is going the "pay 99 cents for cool shoes" route.
  19. I was hopin to see yer wee collection. These are truly not wees. nice pad, by the way. I'd feel right at home in that chair playing some light gun games.
  20. I liked the game as a tech demo, which is kinda what it was. the game needed some fleshing out though, but it was "getting an engine out there" for other developers to gawk at and want to use, plus Doom4 is going to use it, so there you go. Lots of graphics card makers ate crow after this game, with their "our drivers are faster than the other guy" kind of advertising. This game really taxed graphics cards.
  21. eh, that's been removed for quite some time. they switched to a more "if you kicked a lot of arse, you get something" system. Idle servers don't work anymore. SOURCES: my friends when I asked them about this. I could be wrong. I've only been playing since october but really started in May. I had school and left it alone. I'm also told that LAN removes all the new guns so you're stuck with the original weapons which are way more balanced. But I love the laser guns so much! EDIT: I played the Quake Version of TF, missed the "newer version" entirely. I heard it was quite fun though.
  22. If you're not getting the color bar startup, then, I can say your FB3 is DOA.
  23. Oh, My lord. If there was ever a Rated-R Pixar movie, I would hope it to be something like this. I haven't had this much fun in years. It's late 60s themed, filled with futuristic weapons that spark and fizzle, and each one of the characters are unique and have hilarious actions and speech they say in game. the Demolitions man (Demoman) is my favorite so far. He's your stereotypical Scottish Nationalist (Although he's black, which throws a wrench into the whole stereotype thing, which is quite hilarious, but this game pulls it off well). He has a custom grenade launcher like the quake version, but it's a hell of a lot easier to control. it's quite satisfying to use the Stickybomb weapon to line a doorway with sticky spike bombs, waiting for the next victim to dare to walk into the room. I know this game came out in 2007, but it's still graphically appealing and the gameplay is really tight (it's still tweaked to this day!). Plus, Americana is jut oozing out of this. I highly recommend this. Does anyone here play this game?
  24. How much does a used Famicom go for these days? I need a spare.
