My personal preference is for the CV, but that's all it is, a personal preference. And I still grin almost every time I see NE1's avatar. -S

Have I mentioned in this thread how much I hate Fed-Ex? It didn't get delivered yesterday because the driver couldn't find my house (isn't that supposed to be his job?). Last night I called and requested that the package be held in the Tulsa location so I could pick it up at lunch today. Was it there when I went to pick it up? Why no, as a matter of fact it was not. It was out on the truck for delivery again. So tomorrow they're supposed to deliver it to me at work. Anyone care to place a wager on whether or not that happens? -S

Sent you a PM Eric. Been two weeks since I mailed off the letter to El Paso, still no reply. At this point I doubt I'm going to get one. -S

Ah, that's probably the actual reason. I assumed that maybe there were games that came on two cards and that was the reason for the extra space. So I assume that MMC cards are the same size & shape as the game cards. -S

I'm about 99% sure that they were both black lights. Congrats on finding a Tron, that's one of my personal "Holy Grail" machines. -S

If you guys don't stop talking about all these great DS games I'm going to break down and buy one! -S

Thank you for being the first one to say so. You are of course 100% correct. It looks nothing at all like an iMac, not even sure where that came from. -S

How do the X Box versions of the Metal Slug games compare to the original MVS versions? Just curious, as I don't actually own an X-Box. May get one after the 360 comes out though. -S

I still haven't gotten my N-Gage, hopefully I'll pick it up at lunch today. I did however, get my first game for it in the mail yesterday. I can't believe how tiny it is. Looks like a postage stamp! -S

That's just silly. I have a seven year old laptop that's had one dead pixel from day one. Never spread. My GBA SP has also had a single dead pixel since the day I got it. Still just one. -S

Outstanding! Thanks Al! -S

Speaking of N-Gage, mine was supposed to be delivered today, but as I predicted, the Fedex driver was unable to find my house. **sigh** guess I'll pick it up at lunch tomorrow. -S

I tried to use it once at a seller's insistance. I never could get the stupid thing to work, and ended up having to back out of the auction, since the guy wouldn't take any other kind of payment. Left a bad taste in my mouth, I carefully check to see if Paypal is accepted now. -S

There are several actually. I think the closest one to the show location is at 51st & Sheridan in The Farm shopping center. **Nope** just looked in the phone book. There's one at 82nd and Harvard, which would be closer. The trusty phone book also revealed that there is a Hideaway Pizza in the same vicinity. Edit: can't believe I didn't think of Goldies. I love them too. I think you caould proably eat a couple more Goldies burgers than Ron's before your arteries became irreparably clogged. There's one at 51st & Lewis I think. -S

You won't find better pizza anywhere in Oklahoma than at Hideaway. Ron's Hamburgers has the best greasy burgers in the world. Just don't try to eat two of them within the same 24 hour period or you'll almost certainly have a heart attack. Is somebody going to make the AA nametags? I definitely want to meet up with as many AAers as possible, and I'll be taking MMF up on his "have one on me" offer. -S

Good to hear that you were able to get a replacement. IMO we shouldn't be too quick to jump all over Sony for this. LCDs just seem to have dead pixels now and then regardless of who made them. -S

Really? I find it to be almost unusable unless you're in a brightly lit room or outside in the sunlight. I way prefer the SP because I can play it indoors at night (where and when I do most of my gaming) with the lights dim. -S

That was a fun game but it's Wrestling with Kaiju. 843656[/snapback] I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about here. -S

I suspect you're right about that. The new will wear off the poll feature and we won't see nearly so many before long. Some of them have been kind of fun though. -S

It occures to me that I must not be much of an RPG fan, since the only one listed that I've even played at all is Legend of Zelda. -S

King of the Monsters! Accept no sustitute. -S

Great, now I hafta take leave and go to this thing, instead of the one in August. 842922[/snapback] Hope to see you there. -S

Space Invaders 1. It created the genre 2. It was the first arcade game I ever played 3. I have one in my game room -S

I voted for the N-Gage QD. Why? Probably because I just ordered one and I'm still pretty enamored with it. Also I was fairly sure nobody else would and I felt sorry for the poor little guy. Close second was the GBA SP NES version. I can't believe that so many are voting for the PSP. Yes it's got a beautiful huge screen, but otherwise it's pretty bland looking to me. This isn't to say I don't want one. I reaaaly want one. I just don't think it's a terribly nice looking system. -S

I think I may be the only person in the world who hates the speed up chip. I ran across an original Ms Pac in a pizza place while on vacation last year, this was the first Ms. Pac I've seen in ages that didn't have the speed up chip in it. I must have played it for a half hour before my wife finally made me stop and eat my lunch. -S
