807k is the largest file size I'm seeing for a DW4 ROM.

Is this a good time to mention that here in Japan, the United States of America is, in most situations, referred to as simply Amerika, and I am described as an Amerikajin?
You know they're just calling you gai-jin behind your back. :p

huh... I was just thinking about the relative sizes of games on different systems the other day, it would be interesting to know which is the biggest. Looking through my ROMs, Megaman 4&5, Nightshade, and TMNT 2&3 are all 512 as well.

I'd love for anyone who casually mentions that a quantum computer is some magic automatic TASing device to explain how.
The Bit and the Pendulum: From Quantum Computing to M-Theory - The New Physics of Information wrote:
Now if you're playing Chessmaster 4000 on a Pentium-based PC, you can see only one arrangement of pieces at a time. But with the quantum Pentiums of the future, you might see a board where a fuzzy bishop occupied several different squares at once as youre quantum processor preserved all the possibilities for all the moves up to that point in the game. If the many-worlds view of quantum reality is correct, Deutsch argued in 1985, then a properly designed quantum computer could compute in all those universes at once. In principle, such a quantum computer could perform millions upon millions of computations white your Tandy 1000 (a hot computer in those days) could work on only one. Deutsch's proposal amounted to a strange new kind of parallel processing. The idea of multiple processors running simultaneously (in parallel) was not new. Parallel processing has long been a big a deal among computer designers. Obviously, 1,000 chips running in tandem could solve problems faster than one chip making one calculation after another. Basically, 1000 ships could get your answer roughly 1000 times faster (depending of course on how well the machine was designed and programmed). But quantum parallelism was vastly more impressive. Consider the power of 1000 simple processors. Say each can represent one bit of information (in other words, be on or off, representing one or zero). There are then 2 to the 1,000th power possible combinations of on-off sequences. (This is a big number, roughly 1 followed by a 301 zeros. If you tried to count up to it- at the rate of a trillion numbers per second - it would take more than 10 billion times the age of the universe. Don't even try.)
It goes on like this, but I think you get the point.

there was that Turok game that used dual analog... too bad the rest of the game was a steaming pile of buggy crap.

In-game restart sequences have been allowed for certain games, as well as hard resets coded into the actual movie files. Posting a demonstration of what you're talking about (movie file, video) might help us answer your question more specifically.

It definitely looked fast... what are the frame counts vs. Rikku?

I remember Ken/Ryu and Chun-Li as the only characters I could beat the game with, on the hardest level, without losing a single round. Everybody else I was just passing with.

newegg.com is teh awesome... search around for a while and you should be able to build yourself a complete machine for cheap, cheap money.

You can't predict what Windows is going to do. I had a machine run 98 for well over two years without a hiccup, then one day I booted it up and my win.ini and system.ini files had mysteriously gone missing. Thank god I was able to drop my HD into another machine and copy my stuff before wiping the drive.

Simply not allowing them to publish more than 5 games seems stupid, though... if each game was individually reviewed before it got its Seal of Approval, there should have been a way to create exceptions. Who knows how many games deserved to make their way over here but didn't, just because the developer had met their quota for the year?

Hay guys, has anyone tried to BLJ through the DDD void using superspeed to get to the 2nd bowser? :3
That would be the key to a 0-star run.

okay lemme respond to those: (Hard disk = hard drive? lol, how does a hard drive get faster?)
Theoretically, the maximum speed of a Parallel ATA drive (gray ribbon cable) is it's designation in MB/s (ATA-66, ATA-100, etc.). Serial ATA drives have transfer rates up to 3GB/s.

huh... Diddy would be a good addition: a faster, smaller, weaker Donkey.

it's an FPS with upgradeable skills, crafting, plus you can manipulate the enemies in different ways.

The DX10 extensions don't work unless you have a GeForce 8k series or a Radeon HD2k. I'm finding out that playing this without dying is really friggin' hard. I'm abusing the crap out of the quickload.

The nice thing about this is it pauses the video whenever there's a fullscreen application running, so it uses less CPU.

My current background is a video of Forza Motorsport 2. Running Vista has its perks. edit: picture here.
