I have my standards for emulation: only download games that are out of print.



Please forgive the cheap shameless plug....

That is your site? I guess I never put 2 and 2 together with your sig and username.

It is not my site but I have hung around there for the past 5 or so years making a nuisance of myself!!

The basic principle there is the same as at ot.com. Preservation of what we originally had, for us and for future generations.....

The emulator fuss that I don't understand is over Lucasarts' old SCUMM games. Anywhere I look for them (except for torrents ) they're always copy-protected, and this seems unfair to me because Lucasarts doesn't even sell them anymore. The oldest game available on their website, last time I checked, was Monkey Island 3. ScummVM's website says that if you want to find the games, look on eBay, which would be pointless because Lucasarts doesn't even get my money. So I say, torrent the hell out of these games

Pirates! is much better as a PC game for the PC gamer crowd, from the reviews it is getting for the consoles it seems that console owners just don't understand it.

All they care about is talking about Halo 2, reminiscing of Halo, and wondering about the next Halo.

Eh? Whatever happened to him?
“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering

And here I am!

And the only video game related things I did while I was gone was... play mission 19 of Fire Emblem and the first half of mission 20.

Well, I haven't played video games at all for about two months, and I really haven't wanted to.

I dunno, maybe I'm just getting sick of new games that just feel like rehashes of everything I've ever played before.

Maybe this will all change when Zelda and MGS3:S comes out, but right now I'm sick of video games.

I know, which further reinforces my point of rehashing.

Okami looks pretty good though.
