  1. You might need to delete the old MAMEoX save out of the memory manager on the standard XBox dashboard, but that should be about it. Other than that you just need to copy one of the versions I mentioned over to your XBox.
  2. Thanks +T+, I really appreciate your continued work on Pro and keeping up with Gogo's changes. I know a while back you commented you were growing tired of working with Pro, so the work in keeping Pro current with Gogo's version is greatly appreciated.
  3. No, what you need is MAME 0.84 for the XBox. The newest MAMEoX 0.84, MAMEdoX v1.1, and MAMEoX128 Plus! are all based on MAME 0.84, feature virtual memory (HDD caching), and will run that game as well as many others that will give you the out of memory error on the version you are using.
  4. Kanye's an idiot. Plain and simple. I seriously doubt any of this slow response had anything to do with Bush or his supposedly not liking black people, nor do I believe he sent people down there to shoot them as Kayne claimed. In fact, I seem to recall reports of the helicopters trying to help people being shot at, not the other way around. That moron sounded like he could barely form a sentence. But, hey, if you guys want to support that dick, go ahead.
  5. Haha! That was the problem. I switched (renamed) the v1 to v2 and the v2 to v1, turned off the CRC check, and the game loaded and played fine. So it should be a very easy fix for +T+.
  6. Nearly every game runs full speed. I've seen a few instances of slowdown with lots of action on the screen, but in some instances I think the real SNES slowed down too. Anyway, give it a shot, most games I have tried run great.
  7. I got both... but, yeah, I think the v1 and v2 of 2k2 are patched to make the v2 and v1 of se... they are switched. Not sure if that makes a difference, but if it does then that could be the problem.
  8. OK, I tested both of these games: kof10thu: appears to work perfectly kof2k4se: Looks fine graphically, but the sound is totally messed up. A lot of static and the sounds/music seem to skip a lot. Every now and then you hear a clear voice, but most of the time it's just jumbled mess.
  9. I've been wanting to, but haven't managed to get a complete set of either ROM yet.
  10. Well, I just tried all three of those games and they all seemed to play just fine. I couldn't tell what the hell was going on because of all the Japanese text, but the games ran.
  11. You guys haven't heard of this emu? Heh... it's the main GB/GBC/GBA emu for the XBox. And, yeah, Xport has disappeared and apparently abandoned all his XBox projects. Anyway, just about every GBA game I've tried runs, although some a bit slowly. But I haven't tried those three games yet. Maybe I'll give those a shot and see what happens.
  12. 17 out of 20 I missed 4, 10, and 12.
  13. I actually like Vin Diesel, though I hated XXX. Even though it didn't get very good ratings with the critics, I liked Chronicles of Riddick. But back to the topic... what about Jet Li?
  14. What gets me is how ridiculous this whole situation is. An "M" rating is basically equal to an "R" rating on movies. Both require you be 17+ years old to purchase or have a guardian buy it for you. This hot coffee mod basically shows nothing. It's really not any worse than the sex mini-game near the start of God of War (PS2). But now the game gets slapped with an AO rating and most stores won't carry that version. But take a store like Best Buy. It won't carry the game, but in the next section over you can purchase a ton of "R" movie with plenty of real nudity. Then what about all those "Unrated" versions of movies stores like Best Buy happily sell? It's just so ridiculous and hypocritical.
  15. All that is available here is an IPS patch to use on Gogo's version. Like how you can't share ROMS on many sites, so people exchange patches instead.
  16. LOL... but with moves removed. Yeah, your argument makes a lot of sense. You have no clue how to debate do you?
  17. How about the SSX games where tricks had to be removed due to a lack of buttons compared to the PS2 and XBox? Look, say whatever and claim whatever you want, but some controllers are superior to others. PERIOD. It's not about whether you can learn to play a game using a given controller... any idiot can do that (i.e. you really are not a gifted gamer... sorry). For example, controllers can be used to play FPS games, correct? But isn't a mouse + keyboard superior? You bet it is. I would tear you a new one in any FPS game using a keyboard and mouse if you were using a controller... it wouldn't matter one bit how "awesome" you think you are. That same is true with the GC versus other controllers. Some are just better for certain games, your point about being able to use the GC controller for just about any game is utterly pointless because that is not the issue.
  18. But interaction with what? If it's a single player action, adventure, FPS, platformer, etc... game then what you are interacting with is very likely character in a story. In case you haven't noticed, most games do tell a story, even if it's a very simple one. My whole point is that the stories do add to the gameplay and are thus necessary. From his stance one could argue that better graphics aren't necessary either. Which would be true. But they add to the immersive experience. I think our disagreement is over how important stories are to certain games. We have both admitted exceptions. But take his example of MGS. He says he didn't pay attention to the story at all and wished it wasn't there. But, IMO, that's just ridiculous. For one, it gives developers path to follow when making games. Most games start off as story boards... developers just don't jump in a start making levels first. If a game like that didn't have a story I bet he would notice the difference even if he doesn't pay attention to the stories. Why? Because you would likely wind up with a potpourri of levels that have no rhyme or reason to their layout in the game. Many games like that would wind up feeling disjointed... and even though he may not have payed attention to the stories before, he would notice when they were gone. So I really don't care if he just enjoys the action and doesn't care why his character is doing whatever actions he's doing... but I prefer my games to a bit more of an enriching experience than that.
  19. You people are nuts. Say what you want about Sony, but the PS2 has a lot of great games. DMC, GoW, R&C, J&D, TM:B, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc...
  20. Did you just say that game developers have no creativity??? I'm afraid you lose all credibility on that statement. And, yes, most games still need stories. If suddenly all games had no stories or backgrounds I'd just quit playing... because what would be the point? All you would be left with is straight mulitplayer games, puzzle games, and maybe some fighters and racers. Great single player games are already a dying art and losing the stories would basically finish them all off. It's truly sad that there are people like you who think this way. Go read some books and broaden your mind. Please!
  21. Your arguments make no sense. Look, if you like the feel or the GC pad, that's fine. But most people will agree that the layout is simply bad for some games. And for the games it does work for it works no better than another pad would. So what is the point? Why is the d pad so small? Why the funky face button layout that doesn't work as well for some games compared to a tradition layout? Why no buttons under the analog sticks like the XBox and PS2 pads have? Why is the "c-stick" a damned nub... why isn't it just a normal stick like the left analog stick? Why does the Z-button have no counterpart on the other side of the pad? The z-button is also too stiff and in bit of an awkward position with the lip of the r-trigger so close. It's like they did all that just to be different, and none of it is advantageous. I've got complaints about all the controllers, but, IMO, the Cube controller is easily the worst of the bunch. And have you seen this? Link Nintendo may make the Revolution controller with few buttons and sticks?? The Cube controller already has fewer buttons than the other consoles... which has already led to games like SSX having fewer tricks than the same games on the XBox and PS2. But now they are going to remove even more? And fewer sticks? Are they actually going back down to one analog stick? That would be insane. Kiss FPS games goodbye if that's the case.
  22. Why? Because he doesn't like the GC pad? I for one agree. It's garbage. It's like Nintendo makes their controllers different just for the sake of being different. Nothing about the GC controller has any advantage over the more traditional layouts used by other companies.
