  1. I began to lose interest in modern video games right about 2001, right when the X-box and co. came out. I bought a Gamecube, but it seemed like almost all the video games then were fighting in wars and other crap I wasn't interested in. I remember there were a bunch of cool, unusual N64 games I liked, but the number of unique, imaginative games went down starting then. What say you?

      I'm selective with new games. I used to be a big paradox fan in the 00s but my interest is dwindling. 

       

      When I get an xbox one I'll buy rare replay and the crimson dragon game if its still available to buy. No others catch my attention. 

       

      Switch is full of wii u games... That I have or can buy on wii u. 

       

      Ps4 I always said I would buy, but the games I would is now on pc or likely to be on pc in the future. 

       

      I thought having the ps3 out would spur me to play that more or buy more games for it. But nothing. 

       

      Did get a new gx4000 game today though. There's that.

  2. Smoke from wildfires are making it seem like midnight rather than noon here. It's so dark. We're told our water has been contaminated with smoke and not to drink it. I hope we don't have to evacuate because we wouldn't know where to go. I know where all the stuff I want to keep is so if we have to, I can just get it and go. The stuff is: All my Pokemon Mini and game.com stuff, for personal reasons, and because it's a really small collection. Now I know how CPUWIZ feels.

  3. Al, I'll give you not 1, but 2 virtual cans of pepsi  if you make a Sega Saturn subforum.

  4. For some reason I lost interest in the Amico. And can't explain why.

      I've gotten used to this with Paradox Development Studio Games, I used to really enjoy HoI2/EU3 back in the day, but I found the "build up" to the new games far too long - the CK3 situation is just as bad, I know I'll read all the stuff, really feel for it, but then as it comes out - it'll feel like I've already "played it" from all the information that is out.

       

      In theory, I think I would enjoy Amico, but I worry that long term I probably wouldn't dedicate much time for it. Great for entertaining Casuals I imagine, but none of my life actually revolves around a situation where I'd have casuals to entertain.

  5. Don't you hate it when you accidentally start an international conflict?

  6. the channel f with the visual corruption did have the problem I expected, a bad ram chip, as a bonus I determined the other channel f might not power up, but all the socketed chips except 2 ram chips were good.

  7. Wife's family waiting for an ambulance down in Cardiff. Mother-in-law showing symptoms of Covid-19. Having severe breathing difficulties. Seems to be a bit of a hotbed down there. Friend's daughter tested positive a few days ago.

  11. Lots of new updates over at AtariProtos.com.  I'm exhausted, but even a 101 degree fever won't stop the updates!

  12. "Why, oh why, did she swallow the fly?"

  13. Anyone notice on eBay with certain systems, especially rare ones, that a good amount of stock will be located in some far off random corner of the world (not the country of origin.) What's up with that?
