The Gamer's Quarter

yes yes yes y'all. (i am glad i still remember my password.)

Six, thank you so much for your help at TCAF. If I suddenly become a millionaire comic artist, I will buy you games! Hope your trip back was a safe one.
My pleasure! Thanks for introducing me to Migu ...

wunderbar. couldn't get it to agree with dosbox last time i tried it.

that man has an excellent saunter.

Lestrade, you goin' to TCAF? I'm heading to T.O. tomorrow and am PRETTY EXCITED about it.

Colour me stoked! That looks lovely.

One (1) White Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum) to be delivered at an unspecified later date.

Yep, figured that out some time back.

Ah, Redeye already pointed out both patches I was going to link. Haven't tried the second one, though.

What's funny about Call of Cthulhu is that, from what I understand, some of the bugginess is d ...

B coma, that just reminded me that my older brother used to have one of pretty much the coolest thing in the world.

Shapes, that's nothing. I tried joining a 24-player achievement box -- that's all players, incidentally, no bots -- and every last one of them was playing as a Pyro. And achievement box maps are tiny. ...

that's uncanny -- this evening my mom was talking about this game, how i used to sit and watch my brother play it.

What really bugs me about Shadowgrounds: Survivor is the lack of, well... economy of design, I guess. I mean, why is there a full object physics model if its uses are never really explored? And what's ...

so, uh, i'm pretty sure i've been absurdly lucky with my first few runs. before starting, i did a few of fei's challenges as a primer -- i've only played the snes shiren for about an hour or so -- whi ...

oh! thanks!

harveyjames, i'd totally do a let's play of tetra's trackers - i even have the requisite number of friends/game boys - if i had a way to play it.

not sure if this is news to anyone or not, but another eastern european developer is releasing another computer game based on another strugatski brothers novel that is also bound to be terribly buggy ...

man, seriously? i will email you regarding this.

i never got through it, and i'm afraid i wouldn't have the patience for it these days. this is a shame, since it really is great!

this seems like a good place to ask if there are still any good places to find a gamecube hori pad.
there are no quick and easy ways to get one unless you find someone trading/selling on a forum. bu ...

mr. jams, you should add back sixsecondfiesta because he is totally interested in knowing the haps in haveyjamestowne.

Tail of the Sun has some great ideas, but its fans always forget to mention the unplayably-bad part. The camera's constantly fixed at a barely-overhead position, so going south (towards the camera) is ...

We don't really have to include all those items, though, do we? I mean, it's a nice way to maintain a sense of progression through what will otherwise most likely be a disjointed traipse, but as you m ...

I haven't actually tried the editor yet, but I'm in! I'll do the High Jump.

I have a friend who insists the original GB Bionic Commando is better than the NES one. I should play it on my DS and see if he's full of it or not...
I'm inclined to agree with your friend!

Was there ever a rumor about Crocomire in Metroid: Zero Mission? His sprite's in the rom.
i think someone made a hack to reinsert him into the game, actually! yeah, [url=http://www.romhacking.net/hac ...

actually i think it's being remade for the 360, so there you go.

man aderack that's kinda weird because made a post entirely about cereal on my larfjournal on monday too

by the way, is that daphscat as in "daph's cat" or "daph scat"?

sarsamis, i think you would like Riddick a lot.

swimmy! i hope you are not totally sick of dragon warrior 7, because i want to see some more videos!

do not lose faith! you must have... heart!

yeah, i've seen this around a few times (i think there are a few variants or models from the same manufacturer?) and am always tempted to pick one up. $20 is just on the far side of what i'd be willin ...

I have the Steam version, so I have no idea how that works in terms of patches or applying future mods/tweaks, plus I don't have a paper manual, so things are more than a bit touch-and-go.

So the GBC port of [url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/shamus]Shamus is a neat oddity, but the game proper is kind of mind-numbing so I'll leave it at that.
