Console graphics: are we leveling off?
HammR25 replied to toptenmaterial's topic in Modern Console Discussion
The other problem is more realistic graphics means your art budget increases exponentially. -
Sirius and Plutos both use the same bankswitching: 78SC_R16 78BIOS All of PacManPlus's games use the High Score Cart so they should be: 7800: FailSafe (WIP) FAILSAFE HSC_48K HSC 7800: Pacman (hack) PAC78 HSC_16K HSC 7800: Pacman Plus (hack) PACPLS78 HSC_16K HSC 7800: Pac-man Collection PACCOLL HSC_32K HSC 7800: Ultra Pacman (hack) ULTRAPAC HSC_32K HSC 7800: Pac-man Collection (Pokey) PACCOLPO 78HSCPOK HSC Generally with all of PMPs games just right click the game file and look at the file size under "Properties". If the file size is 32k it's going to be HSC_32K HSC Looks like Junior Pac-Man has a different bankswitch file though: 7800: Junior Pac-Man JRPAC_78 7832KR8K HSC

Space Sims making a comeback (Chris Roberts)
HammR25 replied to cimerians's topic in Modern Console Discussion
I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say the main reason they haven't opened up all ships to all backers all the time is so they don't end up with everyone wanting to only fly one ship. That doesn't help them create proper balancing. I'm saying this even though at this point the ships seem to have turned into an ATM for CIG. -
I kinda wanted to buy it for quite a while but had a bad feeling I wouldn't like it because I've never really liked motorcycle games. Once I saw it on Steam Early Access I went ahead and got it since it was only $18. It was a lot more fun than I thought it would be. I was up to level 3 before I deleted it from my system. It's got bugs but they're not really game breaking and I only deleted it because I didn't want to get burnt out on the game before it's real release. I've got a couple of other early access games I'm doing the same thing on.

So who's winning (hardware sales)?
HammR25 replied to high voltage's topic in Modern Console Discussion
At this point if I were to buy one of those systems it would be a PS4 simply because it's in the lead, therefore any cross platform titles will be designed for it first. I have no plans on getting any console right now though because almost all of the games can be found on PC and PC has Steam sales. -
I personally think Paperboy could have been done back in the day. Call it a gut feeling.

Carmageddon Reincarnation is 40% off right now. Not sure how long it's going to be before the actual game is released but they've stated the next release will be the official one. http://store.steampowered.com/app/249380/

That's really cool of Andy to take the time to write up all that.

Hopefully the funding gets at least a couple of thousand dollars over the goal because I have a feeling it's going to suddenly drop again one last time. I have a hard time believing anyone would legitimately back at the $600 level when all it really includes over the $400 level is your name as a platinum backer.

Do you like being in an ecosystem?
HammR25 replied to AtticGamer's topic in Modern Console Discussion
I'm pretty sure it happened in June of 2013 when people were given a choice. Otherwise, I'll buy game licenses however I can get them. If the terms of use get annoying I'll stop buying them. I refuse to buy games that force me to use Origin or Uplay. I've bought licenses to XBLA and PSN games because they were the smaller type games anyway. I have no problems buying licenses on Steam because the games I'm truly afraid I won't like I can just wait until they're 75 to 90% off the original price. I don't collect games so I couldn't care less about not getting media to store. -

HammR25 replied to Lynxpro's topic in Atari 7800
That's the reason I don't do open facebook groups. I don't want to spam my timeline with every single one of my embarrassing posts in those groups. -

One of the nice things about facebook is it's really easy to block people you don't like. That comes in really handy in the groups. -
I'd give him $75 and post that stuff on eBay as RARE!!!!!!! for $350.

Seems like a handy place to read posts from Curt that one might not normally see. I don't really plan on joining it though because I'm not a big fan of facebook groups, especially the ones that are set to public. -
Woman spends $500 on in-app purchases
HammR25 replied to WolfAmongWolves's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Sounds like she spent $500 so she could write an article about the game. -
Space Sims making a comeback (Chris Roberts)
HammR25 replied to cimerians's topic in Modern Console Discussion
I finally figured out how to get to the race track. I won't be doing any racing at all. I like car racing too much. Apparently right now the racing is all about learning the shortcuts. Oh and this video has a little bit of language at the 1:10 mark. -
Space Sims making a comeback (Chris Roberts)
HammR25 replied to cimerians's topic in Modern Console Discussion
I've got the Cutlass and love the asteroid hangar. Looks like racing only shows up if you've forked over money for one of their race ships. I'm not going to fork over another $110 just to be a pre-alpha racing tester. -
Space Sims making a comeback (Chris Roberts)
HammR25 replied to cimerians's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Wow, the nerd rage is super strong with the release of the Arena Commander V0.9 patch and latest racing ship sales. I'm probably getting way too much pleasure from reading all of the complaints and whinging. I love the latest video they released. -
Atari 5200 Redemption Adapter (7800 version) with extension cable
HammR25 replied to HammR25's topic in Auction Central
Yeah, I'm up by george bush and the tollway. I'll definitely have more things to sell once I do an inventory. Selling 5200 stuff is definitely better done locally. -
Seeing this thread reminds me how little I use my 5200 stuff. Therefore, my redemption adapter is now on eBay. If you have an Atari 7800 controller that's not a pro-line this is for you. Hopefully it goes to a good home.
