  1. True, sometimes you had to hold the left button too. ;)

     

    I seem to recall the Casino stage, where you could have endless fun...but it was all about making Sonic bounce around fast like a pinball. Then the underwater parts in stages where you had to catch the air bubbles...there was simply more innovation in those older games, not just "Run...FAST!" like in the aforementioned titles.

    Who can forget the bonus stages too? Who didn't make a point of trying to hit 2 bonus stages in the very first level alone in Sonic 2?

  2. Sorry, no...Sonic Adventure was a turd too. Why people seem to think it's so great is beyond me.

    It was Sega's answer to Nintendo's Super Mario 64...and it was pathetic. Sonic is not a platformer like Mario, you just can't translate that into a 3D world for 2 reasons.

     

    1: Stopping Sonic to check things out or slow him down to get to things? FAIL see #2

    2: Sonic goes FAST, in a 3D plane that means lack of control. SA controlled like pure ASS. FAIL see #1

     

    3D Sonic games have been nothing but miserable. Anyone who thinks otherwise did not grow up with the first Sonic games.

    If you ignore the fact that it's a SONIC game, it's not terrible...but it's a SONIC game!

  3. OMFG...has Sega actually listened to fans for once? They're actually going to make a Sonic game people want to play?

     

    I know we have the GBA Sonic games, but quite frankly they don't feel anything like Sonic either. I want that old school sidescrolling Sonic feel, with nice pretty 3d graphics. Not much to ask for IMO

  4. You're not going to find decent sized IDE drives anymore, for anywhere near decent prices. A 500GB IDE drive will cost almost you what a 1TB SATA drive will these days.

     

    $60 for the 500GB IDE one on average, where you can get a 1TB SATA drive for like $80-$85. Better off getting an SATA drive and an adapter.

  5. I'll cover the last 2 weekends...

     

    Saturday - Purchased and picked up a Williams Phoenix SS Pinball machine (Project, needs boards but in really good shape)

    Sunday - Spent most of the day tearing said pin apart and starting to clean it

     

    Saturday - Went to GF's mothers, for her cousins husbands birthday party. Was really fun, got to hear my GF sing and she's really good, though for some reason I noticed and was told she's VERY shy about it with me present.

    Sunday - Hungover, didn't feel like doing much at all...but we were out at the mall all day anyway. I bought nothing, tried 6 stores trying to find her some REALLY skanky knee high boots...nothing skanky enough for my taste :D

  6. I'm using a 2TB Western Digital that costed me about $300 a few months ago.

     

    How do you manage that? XBPartitioner with 64k clusters? Without doing that, you can't possibly use the whole drive...even then you risk corruption.

    I have a 40GB drive in mine, I'm thinking of taking it out and putting a stock drive in it again...I have no use for 40GB with all my stuff being streamed.

  7. Did you know that the many hot women get divorces in their older age because they were dating the "hot douche" in high school, but now they found out that douches dont make good husbands?

     

    Did you know that shallow douchettes like that, deserve that?

  8. ^Then what do you drink now? I mostly gave up soda when I started working like 3 yrs ago cuz we had a free soda machine. Too much is not good, plus ordering water for lunch doesn't cost anything. But the occasional Dr. Pepper goes a long way in satisfaction lol.

     

    Coffee...coffee and you guessed it, coffee.

  9. You Americans are just used to that nasty HFCS shit, that's why. HFCS is banned here, we use real sugar in stuff.

     

    High Fructose Corn Syrup is disgusting and ruins the flavour in stuff. I've had American Coca Cola...ewww!

     

    It could still very well taste like crap, mind you Mountain Dew tastes like crap to me now...I used to like it, and it's still the same here. Maybe you're just finding out it sucks, like I have?

  10. FACT - Very attractive women that "put themselves out there" are looking for "Mr. Right", but the only thing they'll find due to them being shallow and money hungry, is "Mr RIGHT NOW!" that will use them.

     

    I hate women that need taken care of, can't manage their money and are stuck up like they DESERVE what they want. You can't stand on your own two feet and take care of yourself, you can't have me...this ain't the fucking 50s ladies, GET A JOB and buy your own shit, oh and you're paying for dinner half the time!

  11. Remember the last forum upgrade...

     

    I don't, because the site was down for over a month when it happened.

     

    Agreed, and the focus of this site is slow (Emulation itself) and thus use is down in general. There is no incentive to upgrading right now, having the board down and/or losing features to problems that might arise is a bad idea.
