The PSP joypad looks like a poor design - you might get blisters from playing fighting games - but i'll have to wait to play it myself. Also i wonder if we'll ever get any classic ports (would be different because of teh widescreen). Though, playing Gradius III on this would own.

Will there be any guilds/teams? Gryph and agozer should lead competing factions.

That's cool - i wonder where they found the human subjects, because they had already tried it with animals (researchers - probably at Madison - got pigs to play simple games both with a joystick and their minds) but it seems complex. From what i remember of psychobiology the motor cortex and its functions can vary from person to person, so where do the electrodes go?

Have you tried using kawaks1.48DEV and recompiling the romset (patches are on teh website) so it has 6c and 1v roms? I can email you 1.48dev and even a working romset - ready to go - if you want.

Hey, you removed the 'amoral mod' from your avatar... better put it back after that Seriously, i have no time for tv/anything right now. Working, studying, consumes me, but i just think 'new car, new car' and it's all worth it.

how so? Does the game run, but with errors in the text (garbled, and time-clock bad as well)? That's the most common problem. If that's true, you can get some patches (i can''t post the link, PM me for it). IF it's completely bad (blank screen or muddy random textures) you may have an asr.dat problem, which happens sometimes but i don't know what it is.

So what are the CRC's for the essential roms of the non-bootleg, actual MVS dump?

Yes, it's actually a common problem. I was murdering space demons with my BFG 9000, and when it overheated, a time portal appeared. Then i got run over by a DeLorean.

My copy does not say "plus" at startup but Zero's rod attack (f, d, df + K) works fine. So this is just a standard bootleg, eh? I assume that means it was dumped from a PCB?

Gryph is right. From a legal standpoint, regardless of the situation, in a rear-end accident the person who runs into the other from behind is at fault. sorry dude. P.S. how's your car? Totaled or what kind of estimate?

Whoa... lets back up a minute. I've always been confused about the different SVC chaos dumps. Mine, which is called svcc.zip, uses the following ASR: This, when played in Arcade Mode (using Kawaks 1.46) shows the eight midbosses as selectable windows. In Console mode, the bosses are not there but they and Shin Akuma/Serious Mr. Karate are available through button codes. Which version is this? I assume that whatever it may be, the final bosses (Athena, Red Arremer) are available only though screwing with the dips/using cheats. Any ideas?

I read a story guide that attempted to place Darkstalkers, Street Fighter, and Rival Schools on the same timeline. Weird stuff indeed. And yes, Sakura is the only connection between SF and RS, but it still fits in the timeline.

yes, or something like that. it's still in the early prototype (not 100%effective) phases though. and not available to civilians.

Take some pentazemin so you can snipe the cat from far away. Or get a stealth suit. I still gots to go buy MGS3. Might be a mounth or two though...

or Devil May Cry, which, by the way, part 3 is gonna 0wn Edit - to clarify, SFA2 could be thought of as SFA revision 1. It was Capcom's attempt to make up for the original and has the same plot, etc. The story goes SFA2 - SF1 - SFA3 - SFII - (RIVAL SCHOOLS) - SFIII

Nice work Gryph, it was indeed a concise and unbiased review. I'm a little busy right now but i'll be sure to get to Half-Life 2 sometime after Christmas. Again, good work.

GG keeps getting better but in my mind its still too unbalanced. Air combos are way too easy and many of the characters feel too similar, and get caught in classic fighting stereotypes. Also, there are few defensive options and air combos are too easy - if the game added a one-button parry or samurai shodown type "random counters" it would play better. However the soundtrack is good and it plays wicked fast, not bad by any means but no KOF 98. Note: IMHO. Skythe, stop writing that flame post. Now.

meh...these kids think the've got the world all figured out... "selfish boozed parents" indeed. Anyhow, my team is Captain America and Jin. What's yours?

there's definitely an ONLINE GAMING forum for this. anyhow, i'm kinda busy and can't play, but i guarantee i could own you.

On the real DS front, has anyone played Sega's weird new dating game (whose title i forget)? It's cool that they had the guts to bring it to America. And how big are the DS roms, and what's the file extension?

Meh.. at least Baltimore is improving, we're no longer in the top 3... What i think is sad is how the violence and crime becomes a normal way of life for most people living in it. 2 years ago everyone was upset because of the deaths from Beltway sniper near (not in) Baltimore, but 5 people get killed every day in East Baltimore and nobody bats an eye.

Yes, DMC 3 will make up for DMC 2 and then some. Let's just hope capcom can also redeem themselves with Mega Man X8.

Meh. NFSU was okey, but i'm not a huge fan of hip-hop anyhow. But the music is the least important aspect of the gameplay experience. I wish they would do a better job of getting real exhaust noises so we wouldn't have to listen to it. To conclude - skeet skeet skeet skeet.

FileMirrors Search: Kawaks[/url]Doesn't 666Ghost have it? PM 666Ghost, James, or Myself and we can set you up with a kawaks loader (and an ASR file, which is an editable document that shows the bootcodes for newer roms not normally supported). That you can make yourself (to fit your romsets) Get a basic loader here: FileMirrors Search: Kawaks enjoy. Use a 1.46 version loader.

I've seen this guy. He started out with a portable Atari 2600, then a PS1, and now a PS2. This is a classic case of HAVING TOO MUCH GODDAMN TIME ON YOUR HANDS. Pretty cool though. Must have cost a bundle to make, and i wonder how he cools the CPU (the fan must be pretty loud, or maybe it just burns your hands), especially now that it's in close proximity to all the other components.
