    There sure are a lot of keyboard Warriors round these parts. If folks have nothing positive to contribute, just ignore the thread, back out of it entirely, and by all means, have an opinion or critique Jeff's games in private, rather than constantly looking for conflict everytime he posts a comment. It's all becoming rather pointless and is little more than bullying to be honesty, as pathetic as it may well sound, that's really all it is. Constantly looking to criticise someone, stifling creativity, posting petty put downs is childish and frankly off putting in a community that should just grow, develop and have some fun. Yes, there have certainly been issues with some of Jeff's work which he has admitted to as a hobbyist programmer, and frankly, in an age where you can watch trailers and YouTube reviews/gameplay videos first, it's your choice to purchase his software at this point, so you really can't complain in the aftermath. What the past has to do with this thread in the present I do not know.

    Ideas are a dime a dozen. So are shovelware games full of bugs that are only create to make a quick buck. I just don't see the point in discussing a game idea publicly when there's little chance of it actually materialising, and even if it does, it falls into the latter category. 

     

    i am not sure why you all are so hard on him. he's doing this as a labor of love and just sharing his thoughts. i think his games are pretty well made for a hobbyist and we should be encouraging people like him...not hating on him.

    ...and considering the fact that the Jaguar was a purchase to diversify my collection...

     

    Just wanted to highlight that this is a great approach that more people should take to heart. You don't want to put your entire collection in one, proverbial, basket. It exposes your collection to too much risk. Diversification is key in any video game portfolio.

    I'm sorry, but I have to ask this. Isn't posting all this again introducing risk that you were trying to avoid with the drugs? Your youtube channel and other social media accounts have a bunch of videos and pictures highlighting some of your video game stuff. You use your real name as your youtube handle, you indicate where you generally live, and then include video that shows what part of the exterior of your house looks like and the cars you drive. Couldn't an addict, who is hard up for cash, just as easily use all this information to find where you are and steal your video game collection to sell for drug money?

    Thanks for the recommendations so far! It sounds CD-i had a pretty stellar line up. :grin:

     

    How about my question regarding if there was a mod or product that will allow me to play Sega CD games on a CD-i? If it doesn't exist, I would think it would be a great idea for someone to take up and they could make a lot of money.

    Huh? Dylan w/Infinite Games LLC is an established game vendor at West GA Flea Market (“Infinite Games LLC”) and he obviously had no idea what was in the carts before he sold them, nor did the person he got it from (presumably another flea market vendor). Shouldn’t be hard to believe because why would he sell them for $10 otherwise? It was probably snuggled in the mail and misdelivered or stolen off someone’s front porch. Either way, the unintended recipient was obviously none the wiser about the contents, which is exactly why smugglers hide them in stuff like this to begin with.

     

    Dylan says that no law enforcement ever showed up to ask... though he had a lot of random people asking questions after the video went viral. Luckily, no junkies trashed his booth either. You see, City of Newnan PD responded to the call and requested a week, but the sale happened in a neighboring city where they have no jurisdiction. They said it would be passed on to Carrollton or Carroll County PD and to expect them to have questions. I guess they didn’t have any questions after all because there was never a call and they never showed up at the vendor’s booth.

    I would think he'd be able to tell from the obvious weight differences in the cart from a normal cart. Seems fishy to me.

    Nobody will agree with me, but I find that Hotel Mario is actually quite a fun arcade-ish game.

    Also, both Dragon's Lair games along with Space Ace appear to be really solid ports with decent rips from the original Laserdisc.

    Yeah Hotel Mario looked surprisingly good when I watched a video of it on youtube. I'll take a look at that too.

     

    Do you have any recommendations as far as the CD-i system itself?

    Nope. Not bizarre. If this were JUST constructive criticism and feeback then someone SHOULD be able to say AT LEAST 1 THING THEY LIKE.

     

    Its not constructive criticism or helpful feedback at all. Thats my point its an AMBUSH.

     

     

    And did you just compare my game to a shot in the head? Really dude?

    I don't think you understand what constructive feedback means if you think there has to be something positive included with it.

    ...I'm planning ahead. Are there enough games where X is the preferred controller in the "middle punch slot"?

     

    I'm afraid of accidentally pausing in a game...

     

    It's a good thing to plan ahead. You don't wanna look like a doofus. You look like a man with a plan.
