Playing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic again, this time on my new 360, and wondering if the audio skips so much because it's running on 360. This happen to anyone else?

My brother loves the Warriors games, and owns nearly every one on the PS2. I have fun playing them in small doses in co-op, but they're not my thing for long-term play.

The last games I picked up, were retro ones.

I went to some thrift store in my city, as a friend told me they had obscure stuff.

I am near finished with my PS1 collection now, only missing Suikoden I and II.

Anyhow, the 4 games I picked up were in perfect condition, complete, and only 10 bucks a pop.

They were all for PS1, and all were in the original PS1 packaging -

- Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game
- Raiden Project
- Street Fighter: The Movie
- Rayman

Unless I see some good sales, my next game won't be til next month, which is Ghostbusters on 360. I am trying to only buy three games this year, so I can get the new Camaro by years end (parents own a carlot said if I give them 10k, they will get me one, and all I'll owe is 5 grand.)

So much has been explained. Now it's easy to see why you waste all your money on games you don't play and have such a douchey signature. You're one of those spoiled little b*tches who Mommy and Daddy take care of their whole life, then act out against everyone because they've never had to stand on their own. Explains your "LAWL DUH HAVE ALL 3 CONSULZ GAIZ!" post.

Anyways, I saw Kengo: Legend of the 9 for $1 tonight and picked it up because I like to abuse myself with (seemingly) terrible games. Let's see if this is yet another awfully scored game I end up enjoying.

Edit: Oh, and at the same place there was a really weird section full of Gamecube games for $4.99. I had everything there except Viewtiful Joe 2, so I grabbed it just because it was dirt cheap.

Okay, seriously, you need to take that sig picture down and replace it with something else. We have a limit of 250 pixel height.

Unless a new season comes about, which I don't expect, this will be my second to last post here.

It has been a good 6 years, the show was great.

Thanks for the ride 4Kids. Thanks for giving us TMNT.

Should another show come, I'll come back... My career in Hollywood should be flourishing by then, so I hope I remember my login info, lol...

Machias, you put up some damn good episode teasers. Good job.

Well, I will be back to chime in with what I thought of the episode as my last post.
...so when are you leaving already?!

Holy sh*t, you mean like the original Kengo: Master of Bushido? I used to play that game 24/7 when I didn't have any good PS2 games! Where did you even get it for a dollar? Zellers?

Way to assume there champ.

Actually it is because I am thirty years old, and have had to work my butt off my whole life to earn my keep.

When you make the money, you get to do whatever you want with it. That is the glory of working for it, it is yours (well and the governments so to speak.)

I buy games because I can afford to do so. At the same time I can -

- Help the homeless
- take care of a needy fiancee
- Raise 2 (about to be 3) kids
- Grab the new Camaro (boy is it a beast, I've driven it)
- pay my bills
- and live in a house I can call my own since 2001

Isn't it awesome?

Cure? Yeah, that was me acting with an inferiority complex, thus showing bitterness. Sometimes you just have to get over things. Everyday of life, is another lesson learned. I'm not going anywhere.

If people are so bitter about my sig where an arrogant snot like Brady got his just deserts, then I will remove the pic in full. However, the wording of the sig, still remains. I don't cater to the needs of others over the internet, and I don't expect them to do the same for me. It is just the internet afterall.

Consider that sissy - Brady - gone.

I am looking for a complete copy of the game Jumping Flash... Does anyone know if that is a good game?

My main question is: What's the point in buying games if you're not going to play them?

The software emulation for KOTOR is poor because of it's size, if I'm recalling the "BC Ninja's" statement correctly. I'm surprised it got any emulation at all, to be honest. I know they said they worked on it pretty hard. Stuff like Morrowind still doesn't work, but that's what happens when you go with software emulation.

Anyways, I don't want to start a new thread about it, but does anyone else think it's hilarious that 3D Realms is finally biting the dust?

A friend of mine has got me hooked on Dokapon. The goddamn kid keeps on whooping everyone's asses at it though since everyone else is playing on Download Play and he keeps on getting the Warrior class first.

I'm going to track down that damn game, buy it, and train my ass off until I can beat him with my eyes closed and my hands tied behind my back.

Goddamn prick... so smug about stealing my damn clothes...

LOL! @ the trash thing.

I choose to help those that don't have it as well off as me, because I feel lucky to have that aspect in life.

A house
A car
A family
A career
Entertainment

There are two reasons I chose my screenwriting profession. I used to draw, but I cannot draw humans. So I thought, well if I am ever to get my stories told, I better learn how to create a soul for the characters I draw, or would like to create.

The second reason is, it would provide me with enough money to help my entire family, then the world, then see the world (well at least the USA where it is more safe then other countries for now.)

Of course no life is perfect, so there some shortcomings in my life, but everyone that is alive can at least be thankful for that. So I swore I'd basically earn money, just to throw it to others who really need it.

Which brings me to why I don't play the games I buy... Now there is a kicker to this. I am 30 now. Life outdoors is the life I love. I love to skydive (even if it kills me, I'd rather die falling to the ground, then on a couch from high collestoral,) ride my Yamaha x1300r around the lake, take my family places, just anything. When I become an old man, things will start slowing down. Sure I will still want to have fun, but I will probably then start playing the game collection I grew. Best of all, some of the games others praise for being good, will still be new to me.

From what I know, Devil May Cry is a fun series. Some say part 2 sucks, but all 4 are new to me... When I finally get to them when I am older, I can say, "hey, now I see what everyone is talking about."

So yeah, life can be rough for all of us. I want to say I lived a full life before I got old, and started playing more games, then jumping out of airplanes

The reason I buy the games on top of waiting to play them, is because you never know which game will become the next Ar Tonelico, or Panzer Dragoon Saga, or Suikoden II... Gotta jump on them quick, to make sure you have what could cost you over 100 bucks used, in the long run... Sucks I know, but better safe then sorry.
