    What games are made better by cheating?

    That and speed! These NES RPGs are no longer playable at regular speed. All the walking around and fights against trash you kill with basic attacks is best done at 500% speed.

R32:Querreyhad to attle for five sets in the first round, but managed to eliminate the 28th seed Garcia-Lopez in straight sets. If the american starts well, makes things uncomfortable for Djokovic and the crowd get...

    What games are made better by cheating?

    There is a brilliant board game calledJunta. Where cheating is allowed (I don't remember what was the punishment for getting caught though). That really adds to the game!

    Indeed. In fact Sutekh also used it to drive to the ATM machine.

    Fondest memories of gaming (non-MMO)

    - Entering for the first time a small video game import store in late 1990. The guy who ran it was an audio-videophile with notions of electronics and had a Super Famicom running on a big TV with a home made RGB cable and connected to a beefy sound system. The game was F-Zero. Jaw on the floor-...

    Fondest Memory of MMOs

    As mentioned before, one of the many problem with EQ was that the penalty for failure was so harsh (and I don't mean losing corpses, that was the stuff of legend, but simply the lost time) that it was very difficult to find people motivated in doing anything other than the most secure grindy...

    If it's something you had to click to zone out, wouldn't there be a spell that could be found in the spell database?

    Tennis

    Oh and nothing really eventful today. Playing in night session, Murray was ok after his cramping issues in the first round. I'll go through the draw once we have the whole 3rd round ready, but there are already some matches to look forward to, even if the low seeds had a tough time going through...

    It's a very difficult question to answer, because it's a global dynamic. The web site of the atp has the weekly ranking for every week since the early 70s. I checked a random Top 100 of 74 and one of 94 and compared it to the current Top 100. USAAustraliaFranceGermanySpainSwedenArgentina...

    Tennis

    We lost Giraldo (27) and Chardy (30) today. Wawrinka played a super top 4 level first two sets against Bellucci, he failed to break early in the third... and then played poorly for half a set (enough to lose his serve twice) and just decent for a set and a half (enough to recover one of the two...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    An electronic store around my parts is doing a one day only 10% discount on all apparatuses (which includes game consoles, but not the games). I noticed that the price of the PS4 is surprisingly competitive in Switzerland, even more so with 10% off (I'll pay it the equivalent of $440, but that's...

    Tennis

    Two out of three days of first round matches have been played. The favorites did well, even if Tsonga almost found himself lead two sets to one by Monaco in a tense third set breaker, but the frenchman closed the match in four sets. Wawrinka did not play the cleanest of matches, but did juts...

    The "Am I stupid AF for wanting a motorcycle" thread.

    From a risk perspective, how come bicycles don't have the same terrible reputation as motorcycles? Is it only because it's harder to kill yourself on bicycles and that you mostly drive them in places where others are less likely to drive at speeds that will kill you? PS: And what does AF...

    I am not saying the 2014 pictures do not show an all time low, but it muddies the argument to use these 2011 picture where the water is obviously above normal level with all these immersed trees.

    So apparently there are even reasons to buy a PS4 when you already have a PS4!

    He's not in the 2014 blockbuster remake of the rapture focused Left Behind though. That will star Nick Cage!

    There are plenty of other reasons. Even if you have a PS3 and a high end PC there are reasons (though smaller ones).

    Good Anime Movies

    It's a short film. It's probably called episode 1 because of the way things are stored on crunchyroll. Also I think there are two versions: The 'made at home' one with his wife and him doing the voices and a remastered one using a voice actors.

    Sin City: A Dame To Kill For

    Pretty sure it's all fake 3D now, because they are getting a lot better at creating it in post prod AND it's cheaper and less cumbersome during the shooting. I missed it, but there was a talk in a festival I was at about how they did it for Edge of Tomorrow (using miniature replicas of the sets...

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    Heard 10 bars as dressing up for some documentary subject on the radio and got reminded of the genius of Michael Nyman. And he is building many of his tracks on bit and parts of Purcell (Frozen before frozen!)
