Well I guess it's better to use Easy and no continues than to use the default difficulty and credit feed. Personally I use 1 credit only as I find I improve much quicker that way. The only ones I ever credit-fed were a few older games I played as a kid and never beat, just to see the ending.

Welcome to 1emu then sir. I also like porn

Your roms should just be placed into CoinOPs/roms directory. You can change it if you go to E:\TDATA\4d414d49 and edit the MameOx.ini there.

Never played one right to the end. Played FF7 to about half-way, and X up until those stupid damn underwater games things. Turn based combat + random battles + linear gameplay isn't my idea of fun. I'mmore of a Rogue Galaxy person. I did put about 10 hours into Tactics Advance, but then it's not really FF.

Yeah I knew I had seen a recent SoulCalibur review somewhere. There's one up at IGN for the XBLA version.

A whole rake of 360 games. RSV 1+2, COD4, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Mass Effect, Bioshock, Rockstar Table Tennis, Fifa 08, Pro Evo 08, Assassin's Creed, HL2: The Orange Box and Viva Pinata. Mostly just quick blasts but I spent probably the most time on the Table Tennis. Portal was great too, pretty innovative.

Source Vista is pure drivel, hopefully this will be an improvement.

Oh lord no, I wouldn't get this one, I just meant Horis in general. With the 99% certainty that this will be region locked it's not going to be any good to me. It's a PS2 Hori I want(ed) anyway, at least until I get a JP 360

I've been meaning to get a Hori for years but they are alomost always sold out or I've been skint. Damn these region-locked games. Play-Asia has Otomedius + Hori for £175 + whatever the shipping would be. That's pretty hefty for a casual gamer.

I tried it and it works OK. Go to - C:\Documents and Settings\YOU\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\random.default\extensions\{c36177c0-224a-11da-8cd6-0800200c9a66} and delete the install.rdf. Replace it with the one I have attached. Make sure FF isn't running btw. The only thing is that there are a few new tweaks for FF3. Given that Fasterfox is designed for FF2 then it'll only be able to make FF2 tweaks. It does still work though. install.rdf.zip

Exactly! C'mon, wtf?!

I have been reading up on this and it seems that there are a small number of people who got banned just from being on Live with a flashed drive, never having played a burned game. Anyway, I finally got my via sata card this morning, went through the tutorial, worked like a charm. Remembering the pains I had when I softmodded my Xbox1(s), it was a piece of cake. One small issue though. I originally had a Silicon Image sata card which I used for my Asus sata DVD burner, and my main hdd, a 160GB Hitachi. I had everything switched off and disconnected, to go through the flash process, and had to remove my sata card to put in the VIA card for flashing. Once I had flashed I decided to just connect my DVD drive and hdd into the VIA sata card, instead of putting the old one back in. When I started Windows it said that the hdd was corrupted. I tried a few recovery apps I have and not one of them could do a thing. Coincidentally, this was the drive where I had my 360 'backups' stored and ready to burn. Not good. So I had the high of properly flashing the 360 crushed just minutes later when I realised I had just lost 80GB worth of games in one go. It's ok though, I did a test burn last night cause I couldn't wait, and it works. At least my burner/media are good to go. tl;dr - 360 waffle

I grew up when online gaming wasn't even a consideration, mostly playing solo, with the odd SF2/MK2 2-player action. I have tried several times to get into online play but I don't enjoy it that much. It's not that I have a problem with it per se, just whenever a game's solo mode suffers at the hands of online demands. Considering virtually every top game ever made is 1 player only, I don't mind

Even if all of the above was true, it doesn't benefit me in the slightest. Anyway, there are those Kreon drives for the PC that read 360 originals already. The only thing I would want MS to release is a Blu-Ray add-on. Why sell it again? To buy it back from Panasonic?!

Go and grab NeoCD/SDL or Nebula or something and at least test it on Windows first. You could be running around in circles trying to get a bad iso to work.

Yep, RE:CV smokes RE2, no doubt. Been trying out Killer7 on PS2. Haven't had much time to play it but it is.. strange to say the least. My sata card for flashing my 360 should be arriving today too so I've got myself a nice little stockpile of titles to experiment with

It just sounds like another bug in the beta. As far as I know kenshiro didn't alter any of the NeoGeo stuff anyway so there is no point in using his beta, maybe I'm wrong. EDIT : I just quickly tried to play NAM1975 and it gives the same error message about neogeo.zip.

Sorry, I just realised I linked you to the wrong tutorial. This is the right one, using Xboxhdm + Ndure. The Hotswap FAQ still stands though. You must know exactly what you are doing or else you could fry your Xbox/PC or yourself, or all 3 if you're unlucky

Have you done all those steps yet to make the iso? Also read this Hotswap FAQ before you do anything, to make sure you are 100% comfortable with doing it.

That pretty much sums it up for me. It seems to be largely an adolescent male phenomenon ie. teenage boys who get turned on by a stiff breeze or a sniff of their mom's panties. Just the very fact that it is sexual in nature is more than enough to arouse these..

Here is the very tutorial I used a few years back to softmod mine first Xbox, and subsequent ones too. It goes into every detail you need, what to connect where, links to download what you need (all free) etc. You really can't beat a (soft)modded Xbox.

I've softmodded a few Xboxes using the hotswap method. All you need is a Linux boot disc like xboxhdm then you can go ahead and use Ndure/Slayers to install your dash. It can be dangerous if you don't do it right, but it'll only cost you a couple of blank CD-Rs.

Nah he's going into hiding until the Euros are over cause he knows that they are going to lose

If this is new to you then you should use a Windows NGCD emu to test the game before attempting anything on the Xbox. It may not even work on the Xbox. I have Ironclad somewhere, I'll grab the emu tomorrow and see if I can get it to run.

Yeah, I have found a few lists, but they mostly talk about working on US or Asian 360s. As always there isn't much info for PAL people. I have found all but 1 of the games I wanted for PAL anyway. There really isn't that much I want to play anyway, maybe 6 games tops. When I said made region free, I meant did the release group make them region free. I read that this can't be done (yet) anyway. Cheers.
