      Well, Gravis was always a luxury item, even back then...

      Each to his own, but if I had one it'd be all about games. Started on Ultima Underworld yesterday but that's DOSBox + Retroarch shaders...

  6. The torrent file I downloaded for games for the Amstrad is over TWENTY THOUSAND FILES. Even I think that's excessive.

  7. What is the best free antivirus program for Windows 8 these days? Avast has gone downhill.

  8. New SP Star Wars game being made by Respawn, seems a surefire hit but some folks are already unhappy :)

      Lol@that "sent it out to die". Because EA hates money :)If it was CD Projekt, it'd be "they were unlucky to compete with other games and the market was saturated "

      They have released T2 and Apex Legends since the acquistion. Both were crtitically acclaimed and are fan favourites. But still, Evil EA, etc etc

      I've heard lots of inane arguments in this debate but "smelly" must be right on top of the list :D

  11. Do the Kardashians do anything worthwhile? Seems all they do is puff their lips, ass, and tits with the money YOU happily give them!

      Since when doing anything worthwile was a prerequisite for wealth?

  12. I think I convinced a friend of mine to stop wasting his money on vinyl. He discovered Spotify and now he play his favorite music wherever instead of listening to vinyl in the confines of his basement.

      Crap, I'm late! HOPE HE ENJOYS NOT ACTUALLY OWNING ANYTHING! Also, nice play with that tedious "basement" stereotype.

      I did not long ago ago and few days later they released a new one. Updated again, so they released a new one shortly after @@

  15. NOT AN APRIL FOOL'S JOKE I SWEAR: Smokemonster has released the Mega Sg jailbreak. https://github.com/SmokeMonsterPacks/Mega-Sg-Jailbreak

  16. Black boxes always survive plane crashes. So why not make the rest of the plane survive too?

    1. youxia

      youxia

      I suppose theoretically you could make a plane that will survive a high velocity impact. Its fleshy cargo, not so much though.

  18. Does anyone else find the RGB obsession in present day retro gaming really obnoxious? Like some of these guys would rather chop their thumbs off than use anything lower than component on a BVM. When did this become so important?

    1. youxia

      ...having said that, yeah, the PVM-or-bust crowd can be quite tedious. Composite/SVideo is actually a better choice for some games, plus any decent CRT TV is enough, no need to spend hundreds of bucks because some trendy obsessives said so.

      There's nothing uglier than the modern razor sharp look. And nothing funnier when people think "it's how it should've been" :D

      @Flo: nice, I missed this. And MW is kinda impossible to run stutter-less even on a powerful rig with modern mods and textures. Wonder if this one can.
