K'dash, don't hate me for posting the laws when someone else had already done so. They are essential to the story and I had to post them properly (even the wording is important). As for the eBook, i can't help you there. Try that stone-age place called a public library.....

You might want to get the straight truth from an Asimov fan: The movie I, Robot shares VERY LITTLE with the book of the same name. Asimov's book was actually a collection of nine short stories based around the fictional U.S. Robots corporation. The Three Laws of Robotics are central to all of the stories' plots (taken from the first page of my old paperback copy of I, Robot): 1. A robot may not harm a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey the orders given to it by humans unless such orders conflict with the First Law. 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as the robot's actions would not conflict with the First or Second Laws. The stories in the book are about the people more than the robots. Robots never cause any harm and are in many ways actually better than the humans around them. The movie, again, has basically only the name and some of the characters in the movie. However, that does not make it bad. If you go to the movie knowing that it's not an adaptation of the book you will be quite pleased. Go read the book too. It's a classic

Sweet---thanx skythe, you rule Can you get me Jedah (LP color) in his normal stance, standing HK, and "screaming" victory pose (where his eyes go red and everything)? I really appreciate your help, Skythe. Thanks again to everyone for helping out the noob.

Here's my top five: 1. Street Fighter Alpha 3 2. Vampire Savior 3. Giga Wing 4. Cyberbots 5. Final Fight I'm surprised nobody mentioned Cyberbots yet - its unique and nothing like SFII or any other fighter out there, and the mech designs are pretty cool. Same for Giga Wing - In my mind, its the best vertical shooter ever - even better than Ikaruga (i'm probably going to regret saying that).

Lately i've been trying to standardize all my avatars/sigs for every message board i'm on (lord knows i need it, just look at my lousy avatar ). My question is, does anyone have a link to animated sprites of Jedah from Vampire Savior / Darkstalkers III? I've been searching all over but have come up empty handed. I lack the appropriate skillz to animate some myself... Thanks in advance. P.S. i should probably be shot for using the phrase "appropriate GIF skillz" but it's too late now...

I've been messing around with Chankast lately but after dredging up an old article on IGN my mind returned to n64 mode. The notorious 64DD disk-drive add on was never released outside of japan and so far has not been emulated (i assume). I remember reading that one of the "dead" emulators (pj64, etc.) but i'm sure that there are enough diehard F-Zero (the best 64DD title) fans out there to warrant both an emulator and a dump of the expansion pack and any other worthwhile 64DD roms. So we now have 2 questions: 1. How can we emulate the 64DD? Your guess is as good as mine. Perhaps support could be added to project64, as it appears that people have already cracked the core (see the recent Project64K for a successful example). I'm no programmer but im sure someone out there is up to the challenge? 2. Integration/ROM dumping Methinks a frontend where (for an expansion) booting both the ROM and the 64DD image separately sounds too complicated for its own good. How about a joint dump where F-Zero X (JAP) and the 64DD Xpansion pack are dumped and booted together. This has already been done with the combined Sonic 3/Sonic and Knuckles Genesis roms that are floating around every two-bit rom site on the web, so the concept is not a new one. P.S. What's the deal with the Zelda - Master Quest roms that are also out there? How did they come into being? I know this is a lot of questions but the purpose of this post is simply to get people talking. Talk is good... maybe we can stir up some support for this noble cause .... but in any case we can dream, eh?
