Geezz.. what is your FireWall? I need me one of those.. It's not the best but I am using Norton Personal Firewall right now. It has a visual tracker thing so you can watch it track the person who is trying to attack you. The problem is that all the Norton progs like PF and AV ae pretty bloated and hog a lot of resources, so I might change at some point in the near future.

You certainly can. Not all of them work though but go to http://bleemcast.no-ip.com/ for a compatability list

It works for me on both Zsnes and Dreamsnes so fear not, you can play it again. And you can get the rom from -Link removed. Read board rules-

I only use cheats when I have finished a game. Once it's completed it can be good fun to go through it again and not worry about dieing. I don't think people who cheat are lame though heh, I just think that if you pay £30 for a game then you would be stupid to cheat your way through it without getting your money's worth. It's also pretty cool to use action replay to try out different hacks (like the nude code for DOA2 on Dreamcast ). I hate using walkthroughs too. I may only plan to look at one tiny section but then I can't stop myself reading more and more and I then keep referring back to it without really thinking about solutions myself. I suck! The only kind of cheaters that I hate are those that cheat in online games (eg Phantasy Star Online, Counterstrike etc). I really don't see the point. You don't learn anything, you still suck, everyone can see you cheat and you may end up getting banned(hopefully). Don't cheat in online games or I will send Celine Dion round your house!

AFAIK that 24 hour rule was just made up I probably believed it when I first discovered emulation but not anymore. If it is a real law then I think I am slightly past my time limit Anyway in the UK it is legal to have one backup any kind of destructable media (cds, tapes, carts etc) so I have quite a few legal roms on my computer. Speaking of ips, some knob tried to access my computer with about 10 different trojans over the space of a day. I got his ip from my firewall and reported him to his ISP(AOL). Suffice to say they have cut off his access permenantly I bet his parents will be pissed Silly little wanker!!!!

nice one. Although I would be surprised if George W Bush can even read.

That was mean Enjoy your trip though!

I wouldn't expect anything less from the IDSA. They deleted my friends entire site just because he had pd roms on there. PD!!!! PUBLIC DOMAIN! They didn't even send him any warning or notification, they just deleted it. Then they failed to apologise afterwards. They are scum

heh babelfish rocks It does tend to make you seem quite dumb though. If you want a laugh, convert something english to japanese, then convert that back to english again. eg I love emulforums. It is the greatest site on the internet and is the best place for me to download lots of crap. becomes: I love the emulforums. That because of me it downloads many of the place and the crap whose Internet is largest is the best place OR The sega Dreamcast is the best console in the world. If you don't know that already then I think you are either stupid or you need to go see the doctor. becomes: The Sega Dreamcast is the console where the world is best. Then already, if as for me foolishness or you do not know thing you who are thought, or as for you you are necessary to go to for the doctor who meets. Oh man, it's my own personal engrish wizard. Weeeee

A drastic measure could be to get rid of the VBA windows registry entry. I think thats where all the settings are held. Then maybe just do a complete fresh install http://vboy.emuhq.com probably has more info about that.

That is great

Bummer Have you tried an older version? Edit: Also if you have a pretty slow processor then you might want to give the SDL version a go.

I wasn't going to post in this thread but then I changed my mind I think it's great that Saddam's reign is over (at least we hope so) but that doesn't alter the fact that this is an illegal war. The total lack of Iraqi resistance just shows how little a threat Iraq actually were to the USA or the UK. The weapons of mass destruction remain unfound. I find this totally unacceptable as Colin Powell and Jack Straw made it perfectly clear that Iraq HAS weapons of mass destruction and they KNOW this to be fact. They lost all credibility IMO when the UK governments dossier of Iraqi weapons stockpiles was from a university thesis written 10 YEARS AGO. I think it is good that the USA is cleaning up it's own mess though. After all, they were the ones that trained Saddam & Bin Laden in the CIA all those years ago. The war was never about liberation. I mean the USA imposed 10 years of sanctions on Iraq which punished the people and NOT Saddam Hussein. The UK have invaded Iraq more times than I have had hot dinners so no wonder they all hate us over there. Out of $70 billion Bush has given 750 million dollars of aid to help 25 million people. It's not enough! Iraq is in serious trouble right now. People have no water, hospitals, electricity, or food. There is no police force and the people do not trust the old police (who worked under Saddam) to treat them fairly. THe Kurds want a seperate state and Turkey and the rest of the Iraqi people won't allow this. Rival militia factions are already being created as we speak and what is being done about it? Nothing. So where now, what next? Syria? Iran? N Korea? Is Bush just going to destroy country after country without repairing the damage that is caused? Is he going to deal with Zimbabwe? Israel/Palestine? The congo? N Ireland? Chile? China? Egypt? Russia? Take one of those countries as an example. China:- The country with the worst human rights record on the planet. Bush won't be attacking here because they have no oil, they have nuclear capability and they have a ground army that would crush the USA's in a second. Frankly, I despise George W Bush. (note that I love America, I just hate Bush )I hate the fact that most Americans right now just blindly back him without questioning his motives or the motives of the people who control him. I hate the fact that he describes the USA as "good" and places like Iraq, Afghanistan & Jordan as "evil". He actually has a lot of Americans believing that the USA can do no wrong!! That they are acting with the will of God so it's ok to kill for the protection of ourselves!!!! I hate that he regards this war as a "victory". Who wins? Bush's own company owning friends? The Iraqi people? The families of dead civilians? The families of dead coalition troops? Osama Bin Laden sympathisers? I hate he fact that he pulled out of the Kyoto treaty. I hate the fact that a religious zealot, drunk driving, former drug abuser is the most powerful man in the world. But anyway, this war isn't about my hatred of Bush. That is why I don't think it has necessarily been unsuccessful. I think the proper time to judge that is in a couple of years time, once the USA have gotten out and the Iraqis are running thier own country again. I hope for peace there and everywhere else.

1. What version of VBA is it? 2. Is it all games or just certain ones? 3. Are you using the gba bios?

Excellent site. Good post mate

Lately I've been listening to Athlete, Ramones, Nick Drake, Velvet Underground, Suicide & Zwan. My top 5 in no specific order would be:- 1) Jimi Hendrix - Are you Experienced? 2) Sonic Youth - Sister 3) Radiohead - The Bends 4) Nirvana - Bleach 5) Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin III

Soda Play is a cool site but I've never made anything that decent on it. It's fun to mess about with other peoples models though.

I LOVE the onion. It is so damn funny I just got "Our Dumb Century" from amazon a couple of days ago. It's a great book to have in the bathroom so that you can just read a story everytime you go in. Another good bathroom book is the Viz Profanisaurus. If you live in the UK you HAVE to get it. It's hilarious!

Supermans X-ray vision would also come in pretty handy if you are around lots of beautiful women. The major drawback would be that you would be around lots of men too Also the power to actually understand women at all would be great. I could probably learn but since i'll only live for about 80 years, I just don't have enough time!

Yeah I saw pumping Iron and Arnie was freaking huge back then. All the old school American action heros are elderly now. It pretty much sucks because the new ones just can't cut it next to these guys. eg I just saw Vin diesels new movie last night and WOW it's bloody awful! Anyway, I am a little bit worried about how Arnie will come across in Terminator 3 this summer. I mean they might have to tone down all his stunts incase he breaks his other hip

Another one. The professor guy in Phantasy Star Online on the Dreamcast. You have to escort him through all the levels and against the sewer worm boss and he only has a certain amount of energy. So you have to keep healing him. Seriously, when my character got NOL'd I couldn't be bothered playing it ever again (until PSO v 2 ) because I would have to redo that freaking level. The Professor sucks!! sucks I tell you!

Not too many control pads. I broke a Snes control pad when I was cutting up the wires to use it on my Dreamcast for Dreamsnes. I also broke a Saturn controller when I fell out of bed on top of it I used to go through Amiga joysticks like crazy. I always used to either snap the shaft or the switches for the directional control would stop working. They were pretty crap quality though so it's not all my fault . The good thing was that you can use Megadrive pads with the Amiga, so I ended up just using that because they are pretty unbreakable.

Saddam VS Bush Saddam has military experience. He is a completely psycho who puts his family in acid baths. Hard man but has a big gay moustache. Bush has no military experience, he can't talk properly and he is a drunk. He has a variety of devastating special moves. FIGHT!!! Bush drinks a bottle of gin and starts the fight by saying "I loovvesh your oil Sandy, guimme soooooome pleeeesh". Saddam retaliates by farting at Georgie! Nooooo Chemical warfare!! Bush takes a stool and hits Saddam on the back with it, taking away a whole quarter of his energy! Saddam gets up and and throws sand in Bush's face. Bush can't see and can't counter. Half his energy goes! Saddam uses his "50 body doubles move" to have 50 identical guys on screen all kicking George Bush's ass. Bush is in trouble! Bush can see once again. He uses his "impose sanction" move and shackles Saddam down, killing all his body doubles. WHAM Bush uses the Daisy uppercuttercut to knock Saddam into next week. Both guys have a tiny bit of energy! Who will win!? Bush pulls Donald Rumsfeld out his ass and throws him at Saddam! Rumsfeld begins to talk.....zzzz....sleepy....WAIT Saddam dodges and uses A PRETZEL!!!!!!!!! BUSH FAINTS! SADDAM WINS! ITS ALL OVER!!!!!! I eat too much sugar

I would say any character in a Japanese RPG. I mean they walk around then come up to say a small fence or a knee high bush and it's "nooooo I can't go this way, because I would have to lift my leg up" or maybe it's a 2 feet gap in a wall "nooooo I can't go that way because I would have to turn sideways", or perhaps a branch, a small wall or any obstical which you might need to jump to get over. NO you can't jump or smash up a fence with your huge big sword! You have to go on a 2 hour long trek round some monster infested forest/mountain path! Well I want to just climb up the bloody tree, smash the fence down, hop over the branch and onto the next bit of ground! Then you have the fact that you can just walk into any house which takes your fancy and the owner lets you raid his treasure chests or tells you valuable information. If that was some spikey haired dude walking into my house, I would kick his ass! "SPIKEY MAN, NO! THATS MY MONEY, NOW PUT IT BACK BEFORE I SHAVE YOU BALD, YOU MANIC TEENAGE DEPRESSIVE ON A QUEST TO SAVE THE WORLD AND AVENGE YOUR PARENTS DEATH!" phew, that felt good hehe
