not so much buddies, but wouldn't microsoft be more like...Valve's pimp? Uh? Why? Valve and Microsoft have nothing to do with each other except that Valve's games use Microsoft OSes.

"Mommy wow! I'm a big kid now!" DC++ isn't tough to use at all. The only thing different about it is that you have to share a certain amount. Here's a guide I wrote in another thread: - Install it. (Get it from http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net) - Open it. - Go to File -> Settings if the setup screen doesn't automatically come up. - In General, type in a username, choose your connection type, and if you know your IP and are not behind a router choose Active and put your IP in the space provided. Description and email isn't necessary. - Then you should see Sharing on the left side of the screen, go to it. Add folders till you share atleast 5 gigs of stuff which includes atleast 100 mbs of ROMs and/or ISOs. And then on the same screen, look down a bit and allow 5 upload slots. - Close the settings window. - You should see the left most button which is a monitor with wire coming out of it. Click it. It will take you to the connect to hub screen. Look where it says Manual Connect Address. In there you type the hub name you wish to join (you shouldn't join more than 5 hubs otherwise crap can get slow). Here are some good hubs: emu.servegame.com hub.barnitos.net classicsega.homeunix.com romsterhub.ath.cx devious.sytles.net The last two hubs aren't as big as the top three but they are still good. - If you can get into a hub but when you try to download something and it doesn't work, go back to the settings screen and change the connection type from Active to Passive. Hope that helps. ------------------------- For IRC things are a bit different and complex. But thanks to www.packetnews.com and sites like that, it takes away a lot of the difficulty. Just type in the file name you want and it will search through the IRC networks and show you the results. Then you just click on one of the link there and it should open your IRC client and go to that channel, then you right click and paste in the chat box (when you clicked the link in PacketNews, it sends a little text thing to the clipboard) and it should be something like /ctcp blah blah blah and then press enter. Most of the time you will have to wait in line (or queue).

Ooooh...then I suck at Rival Schools. I just remember beating that really big guy and thinking the game is over. I haven't even gotten Sakura yet!! AH! Thanks for the correction.

Day of Defeat is pretty good, I did enjoy it when I played it. I just reinstalled Steam and have to do all that downloading crap.

I found the install file on my harddrive and used to play it a lot on my fast connection at my first college, but I had to give it up since I switched colleges and had dialup at home. Now that I have broadband I decided to reinstall it and will probably start playing after school ends. So, do any of you play this? I thought it was damn good and damn fun. It's free. I prefer it over the other free online FPS, America's Army.

Hyo is not in Rival Schools 1, he is in Rival Schools 2.

I haven't seen this magazine in my local bookstore. I'll have to keep my eyes open for it when I go there.

Oh... well flock that. I like how mine is set up right now. Plus I never play those games.

Kind of like what they did with Kevin Mitnick. But he went to prison too. This was more than hacking, it was outright theft. They should be thrown in prison AND not be allowed to touch a computer for 1 year.

When I use Zinc it doesn't detect all of the ROMs so just make it show all games and try to run it from the full list.

Uninstall it and reinstall it. See if that does anything.

Let's just hope these handheld consoles will be emulated as quickly as Gameboy Advance was.

I think all 3 consoles will be revealed next year at around the same time, probably E3 or that one show before it.

I still can't believe Valve had the computer the full source code on an unsecure network. I'd have a sort of vault like in Mission: Impossible 1 to have full access to it.

I've never been a huge fan of handheld gaming, I don't need to play games everywhere I go. That's when a good book comes in handy.

"Well lets not start s***ing each others d***s just yet." - The Wolf in Pulp Fiction Ofcourse this is great news but should be wary, don't you remember the KOF2003 fiasco with Sharim and all. But that fourth and that last picture make me very happy. EDIT: I edited the first sentence myself so Gamecop wouldn't get the satisfaction.

Awesome! I don't have finals then!

Rip offs are a whole different thing. Streets of LA didn't get GTA 3, disassemble the code, and rerelease. They started it from scratch. But anyway, I just saw this over at the Cassini homepage: http://www.barnitos.net/cassini/inquiry.txt. He was told to contact the Sega Legal department via snail mail. I would love to see this emulator flourish but only if done legally. I liked it when it was just called GiriGiri Hack because it didn't say it was more than it was. I still am curious about the 40% changes made to GiriGiri...

But that doesn't authorize them to disassemble it, change it, and say its a new emulator. That can only be done with express permission from Sega saying they can do whatever they want with it. That'd be like someone changing around Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo for PC (it's abandonware) and changing some of it and calling it Alley Battler 1.

Yeah, the card is not that bad but my processor (Athlon T-Bird 1.4 ghz) and RAM (256 PC2100) is holding me back A LOT. I'm going to upgrade soon but my mobo doesn't allow any RAM faster than PC2100. I'm going to have to look for a cheap mobo+CPU+good fan combo and atleast 512 mb RAM.
