  1. Needs paths to CHD folder and/or CHD detection in zip files with CHDs but aren't renamed properly.
  2. Samurai Pizza Cats, if you remember that show, you are hardcore.
  3. Joystiq, this place, cap-snk, mmcafe, gameindustry, all of 4chan. Multiple times.
  4. 2 manga series and the anime + this = WIN!
  5. Then let me educate you. Global Warming does exist, except it's a nature cycle that happens every 250ish years, the problem is, in our era, we're actually speeding up the process, throwing the nature cycle out of wack and causing several problems, such as not giving enough time for speices to natureally adjust to the changes and the water level is raising, which that itself is bound to cause problems. Ending note: Since I started watching wee early in the morning catching both the Japanese feed and the last 3 bands of the Sydney set and watched the rest of the concerts the rest of the day on my TV, a f'n amazing show. Great set of bands across globe. If I had to rate which was the best one to catch; Highlights are in ( ). 1. Tokyo/Kyoto (Xzibit, Genki Rockets, AI, Ai Otsuka, Cocco, Linkin Park, Koda Kumi/Bonnie Pink, Yellow Magic Orchestra) 2. New York/Washington (John Mayer, Alicia Keys, Dave Matthews Band, Smashing Pumpkins, Roger Waters, The Police/Blues Nation) 3. London (Genesis, Razorlight, Damien Rice & David Gray, Paolo Nitini with an excellent cover of What a Wonderful World, Beastie Boys, Metallica, Spinal Tap) 4. Shanghai (Evonne Hsu, SOLER, Joey Hung, 12 Girls Band, Sarah Brightman) 5. Hamburg (Shakira w/ Wyclef Jean, Snoop Dogg, Sasha, Enrique Iglesias, Chris Cornell) 6. Sydney (Wolfmother, John Walker, Crowded House [during the last song on their main set, the power to the stage's lights were cut off, promoters took action and turned on all the stadium lights, also brought a huge sing along during the encore]) 7. Johannesburg (Angelique Kidjo, Joss Stone) 8. Rio de Jeanrio (Pharrell Williams, Macy Gray, Lenny Kravitz) Tokyo/Kyoto show was personally my favorite, high energy feel during the Tokyo set and getting nice and mellow on the Kyoto show. New York/Washington is my second favorite, while having a very good festival vibe during the New York set, Washington with Blues Nation was ok at best, Blues Nation was the saving grace. Also DMB playing = awesome. London is just all around fun, good choices, excellent sing alongs (Que Sera, Sera during Rice & Gray set was top) and crowd waves. Also had the Beastie Boys doing Intergalactic. Shanghai, what can I say, the women who preformed are lookers, sing well, speak damn good english. Hsu & Hung are personally my favorite to come out of Shanghai. Hamburg, a decent show, Shakira was smoking, Snoop tore the house, Sasha being Sasha, Iglesias set was entertaining, Cornell was excellent as always. Sydney, well I wish I caught the entire show. Wolfmother was sweet, John Walker was mellow and Crowded House brought the house (pun intented) down, and the power along with it. Johannesburg was boring, but I put it up because I absolutely love Joss Stone. Rio was also boring, minor excitment during Macy and Williams' set, only caught 2 songs by Lenny. Edit: Heading out to FIFA U20 tomorrow (Sunday) to catch the Portugal game.
  6. Don't see how. They had it first, and I bet the online bit will be added down the road. And either way the 360 doesn't have the VSHG now does it?~ What I'm about the say is still up the in the air, but the 360 version is most likely going to be the latest VF5 (Right now Ver. C) while PS3 is Ver. B, which that itself is considered out dated with some of the new changes in C changing the game a bit. They'd possibly need to release a new version of VF5 for the PS3 because of it since it wasn't just tweaks, but the system itself changed a little bit. Also another thing is Sega isn't providing the servers, Microsoft is, which is the main reason I could see why the 360 version has online play and Sony doesn't (it's still decentralized-like system, which sucks). As for the joystick issue, the DOA4 one should suffice until Sega or HORI comes out with a bitchin' stick.
  7. Hey, I love festivals, their the best thing since bar hodowns.
  8. So yeah, I'm watching LiveEarth on 3 feeds. CTV (Mixed feed), MuchMusic(Tokyo Feed) and MuchMoreMusic (Sydney). All of which are live, watching Cocco right now. Live Earth Website Setlists (By Country & Time)
  9. Not to be mean, as long as it doesn't have any sort of input-lag problem it's good. I don't really care what brand it is either.
  10. I would no doubt keep it. Also about the DYI suggestion, well, only the tech savvy would do it, which isn't their main user base.
  11. SEGA Europe and SEGA of America announced today that the highly-anticipated arcade fighting game, Virtua Fighter 5 for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, will feature an online versus mode at launch in Autumn 2007. The Xbox 360 version of Virtua Fighter 5 is based on the latest arcade version update and features both analogue-stick and D-pad control, as well as vibration support. The game also includes an improved Quest mode featuring more CPU rivals, items, and emblems for character customisation. The DOJO mode has added features including leaderboards, training move settings, improved throw and escape training, and the option to change your opponent's position and recovery type. These all work to create a more refined DOJO mode where players can improve their fighting strategy. Now featuring an online two-player versus mode via Xbox Live, Virtua Fighter 5 will allow players to compete online. Players will also be able to select one of the 17 characters or customise them in Quest mode. Customisation features allow players to modify their characters by selecting from four base costumes and then attaching a wide range of unlockable and earnable items. Players will not only achieve victory by defeating highly-skilled opponents, but also by competing for prizes and earning in-game money which allows them to buy many items at an in-game shop. "For a lot of very good reasons, Virtua Fighter 5 is regarded as the deepest and most revered fighting game available on next generation consoles", said Gary Knight, European Marketing Director, SEGA Europe. "Bringing Virtua Fighter 5 to the Xbox 360 will not only capture an entirely new audience, but will allow gamers to show their Virtua Fighter skills online against friends and foes". Created by the renowned development team AM R&D Department #2 out of Japan, Virtua Fighter 5 will be released in Autumn 2007. Sega Europe Now, is it Ver. C?
  12. I believe this is plagdurising the religion I created 10 years ago, except it only fighters, RPGs, action, side-scrollers and puzzle games.
  13. Beyond the occasional drive change and chip optimizations, they still haven't done the 65nm chips, but nANA is in.
  14. It's on all known models, not just the launch models you know.
  15. Microsoft Admits Hardware Issue, Extends 360 Warranty Includes retroactive reimbursement for previous machines. By Patrick Klepek, 07/05/2007 Microsoft announced today they are extending all Xbox 360 warranties to three years, a policy that not only applies to new consoles but retroactively, as well. If you've had to pay for Microsoft to repair the red ring issue in the past, they will pay you back. At 2:30 p.m. PST, Microsoft will hold a teleconference to announce this. "As a result of what Microsoft views as an unacceptable number of repairs to Xbox 360 consoles, the company conducted extensive investigations into potential sources of general hardware failures," said the company in a statement. "Having identified a number of factors which can cause general hardware failures indicated by three red flashing lights on the console, Microsoft has made improvements to the console and is enhancing its Xbox 360 warranty policy for existing and new customers." This comes just after 1UP's own story about a man who's gone through 12 different machines since purchasing an Xbox 360 near launch, reports overseas of companies refusing to repair the hardware because the load is so overwhelming and responses from the Forza Motorsport 2 team about users experiencing hardware failures while trying to play that game. "The majority of Xbox 360 owners are having a great experience with their console and have from day one. But, this problem has caused frustration for some of our customers and for that, we sincerely apologize," said Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft's Entertainment & Devices Division. "We value our community tremendously and look at this as an investment in our customer base. We look forward to great things to come." Microsoft says they'll be taking a "$1.05 billion to $1.15 billion pre-tax charge to earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 for anticipated costs under its current and enhanced Xbox 360 policies." Ouch. - 1up.com
  16. Well then, if a Controller to USB adapter, what to suggest then? I require a very realiable one.
  17. Ha crap, we both posted at the same time.
  18. Updated post with changing it for 3 days. Read post for more details.
  19. It's open to all, just need to find a good server for both parties to agree on.

  21. Ok, my USB adaptor really sucks and my PS2 controllers suck, so I have decided to get a USB controller. So far I'm leaning towards this and it's cheaper breathern. But I am not one to trust Logitect products due to a bad history of them some how breaking down for some reason (headphones, mics, older controllers). Reviews for both are the usual "breaks down randomly" and "great." Can anyone suggest some alternatives? $40.00 CAD (that's like 29 USD I believe) max is as far as I'm willing to go.
