  1. i have a friend that believes manga and anime are like a cancer on western society. :D anyways, i got nothing bad to say about it personally. i got a few akira comics and more than a few anime vids on dvd. thats about it for me.

  2. wasabi+habanero hot sauce+hot cheetos=24hrs of sitting on the toilet

     

    ...you can try that mixture if you guys want to see if it's true, it's just a theory

    yes. the adverage person would be spray painting the toilet for a day, at least.

     

    ps- oh, and gamecop, you are suppose to drink milk silly. i thought that was common knowledge. :lol:

  3. ;) pogo sticks and trampolines gotta be the two greatest inventions known to man kind. my friend used to have a trampoline, and we'd have these grudge matches on it. 2-4 of us would get on the thing and then bounce toward the center, crashing into each other, trying to knock one another off the edge. it would be the best when one of us would get our legs caught on the bar around the outer edge, crushing our "hairy nuggets" as we fell through. :lol:
  4. not bad. only one complaint. assuming that is your tag in the lower left corner, i think it is too big. it distracts my eyes form the rest of the wallpaper. all in all, nice work, though.

     

    ps- nice sig ash. very trippy with the hair and all.

  5. ME:  Pirating currently available games is wrong, but what on Earth is wrong with taking an academic interest in gamecube emulation, as a matter of technical curiosity?

    only because that information can be easily corrupted. show a person how to make dynamite. i truely doubt they will ONLY, then, use it in a constructive sense. for example, industrial mining and what have you.

     

    with emulating a system that has been abandoned and/or taken off the market, well, you can then really do no harm. doing the same with a system that is currently being sold and what not, well, you already know my answer to that. :P

    If I push further your thought: do not teach programming because you could write emus with it. Don't teach iron forging, because you could make knifes and guns with it. Don't teach stone carving, because you could do sharp pieces that could be used as weapons.

    That's it! You're in the before-stone-age paradize :-D

     

    About how emus for recent systems are a steal... if you would have bought the console, maybe. If not, I don't see much change for the company. And seeing how emus for current systems go (4 fps?), anyone who wants to play decently a GC game and who can afford it will buy a GC. Those who can't are screwed anyway.

     

    I have a shitload of mp3s and the number of cds I've bought each year has not gone down. Have I stolen anyone? If so, who?

    its weighting the bad with the good. people are only interested in what they believe they can do, and never stop to think if they should, infact, do it. though, people back then were of limited intelligence and didnt know any better. when they came up with stone carving and iron forging, they did it only because they saw it as a means of survival. they only saw the potential for a positive effect, and most likely, had no idea it would have a negative impact on thier lives aswell. im sorry, but, the same can not be said about emulating gamecube games. as of now, its emulation would only have a negative effect, except for the person pirating the game, but, thats just like any other form of theivery. give it ten years or so from now, when the games are not available in retail stores. only then will i see a positive outcome to it all.

     

    not all emus run thier games at 4 fps. some games can be run at a good frame rate, at the sametime, maybe having some graphics trouble. others can be run at a not so good frame rate, and at the sametime, having great graphics. then there are the games, which are the exception, that run at a decent fps and with decent graphics. obviously, i dont have first-hand experiance running gamecube emus. i can only say i get my info from screenshots, articles, and from people whom i know, that have seen them run for themselves. the emulation of these present day consoles is getting better and better, very quickly. i give it a year or three before they start doing there job almost perfectly. that may seem like a long enough time for the games to have been out, to justify their emulation, but consider this. all next-gen consoles will be backwards compatable with their present day counterparts. it is then safe to assume, that most, if not all, games that are out now, will still be available to purchase then. it would be silly for them not to be. furthermore, we are not only speaking of gamecube emulation, but, xbox, ps2 and newly released arcade games aswell.

     

    oh, and about the amount of cds you buy, versus the amount of mp3s you download... everyone and thier mother that downloads mp3s to dvd rips claims that. i dont believe it for a second.

  7. but, ive already got a GC... why would i spend the money on a second one?

    well, thats a good question. being that most people who are intrested in gamecube emulation, dont actually own one, i assumed you didnt either. on a personal note, i detest gamecube emulation, aswell as ps2, and xbox. infact, its not emulation, its theivery. thats why i advised you to buy one. now, the fact that you DO own one, and are still intrested in its emulation, is not much better. although, thats your prerogative. i for one love nintendo, and dont want to see it one day destroyed, due to such acts. i dont mean to flame you, thats just my reasoning for my previous statement.

     

     

    all emulation is technically stealing. you can't measure theft in degrees.

    im not. emulation was created for preservation purposes. what emulation "has become" during the past several years, is beside the point. here's an example of my logic...

     

    emulating old atari games that no one is presently making money off of, meaning the developers. GOOD!

     

    emulating newly released gamecube, ps2, xbox, arcade games etc, which developers are still making money from. BAD!

     

    what good is owning the rights to a title, if its just gonna sit there on a shelf collecting dust for a decade or two. that's why emulation was created, and that's the only reason why i am involved in it.

  9. i guess it depends on what your definition of "works" is. take a look at the bottom of the first screenshot on that page. see how it says FPS:4. thats 4 frames per second. not very fast. so, does it work? id say yes, its possable. does it works like nes emulation works? not by a long shot. i got some good news for you though. you can get a cube for 99 bucks now. so go nuts.

  10. I admit to...

     

    coming here everyday, sometimes more than once, and not posting.

     

    pouring iodine into a ketchup bottle at a chili's restaurant.

     

    tipping a waiter 5 dollars in pennies. then upon him aproaching the table, knocking them to the floor.

     

    also stealing road signs as a kiddy.

     

    getting arrested for throwing a snaple bottle full of pee through someone's window.

     

    skipping school, and spending all day at the arcade, dropping acid and playing killer instict.

     

    sneaking into the girls locker room, after p.e., to watch them undress on two seperate occasions. i also admit to not taking pictures. :lol:

     

    killing my parents and my sis because they were unclean.

  11. Hey man why'd you steal my avatar!!!

    hahahhah...Because it's part of the 1Emu collection. :unsure:

    heheh, yes. :lol: once you choose an avatar, it gets added to the site's library. go take a look. :P

     

    as for your question above, there are many sites which explain the process of adding a console to a jamma cab. try doing a search on google.com. many should come up. the process mainly involves making a xbox2jamma harness. the harness is what converts the xbox's controls to jamma standard. you can make one by taking apart a xbox controler and wiring the controler's board to the jamma arcade controls. check out this site here. it describes the process using a saturn, but it's basically the same with an xbox. dont forget to click on the link for learning how to build the harness, because that is key. if you have anymore questions, feel free to come back and ask. good luck. :P

  12. nice! again, good composition. i like the feel of the peice... very gothic. i also like the colors chosen, and even though her face is very bright, it doesnt lead your eyes away from the rest of the peice. thats the composition again. you're doin alright. keep it up! :lol:

  13. nice design. good use of positive and negitive space, and also, nice contrast with the flow of the hair. the bottom one is my favorite for the colors chosen. you've got an interesting style. keep it up.
