  1. Alright, here's the situation. My friend just recently bought his first laptop. As much as I wanted to congratulate him, I knew that something would go wrong.

    As luck would have it, somehow, he managed to delete the recycling bin. This isn't a sick joke or anything, but I have spent the past 6 hours trying to figure out how to reverse this problem.

    Personally, I never thought this was even possible.

    Any and every idea will be greatly appreciated.

    Laptop info:

    Laptop Model: Toshiba Satellite A135

    OS: Windows Vista Home Premium

  2. I almost forgot to mention something else...

    ...Lifeforce.

    Invest in it.

    Edit:

    Is there a consensus on the best NES emulator, btw? I was looking at FCE Ultra, but some people were recommending RockNES over it.

    Well, I'm currently using FCE Ultra, and my only problem is the audio dumps and file locations altogether. Other than that, everything else is pretty much cool. I haven't heard anything about RockNES.

  3. Well, the only way that I could possibly think of is to check the said remix that you're looking for and check to see if it actually does have lyrics. I don't actually recall there being any type of big-assed list of lyrical remixes, (I could be wrong...) but dude, you're gonna have to start trekkin' the site.

    Where you're supposed to download, for some remixes there is a tab labelled lyrics. Hope that helps somewhat.

  4. Journey to Silius

    Bump n' Jump

    Double Dragon 2 (Go pick on Mr. Violence)

    Super C (Just because)

    Rad Racer

    Megaman 1-3

    Zelda (Your own TAS, I guess...?)

    Super Mario 2 & 3

    Bionic Commando

    ...I'm all out of ideas, outside of that. Unless you feel brave enough to tackle Rolling Thunder...

  5. I saw a pack of thin plastic shell/screen protectors at Target for $10 that looked like official-esque Nintendo packaging but also had a Hori logo on the front. It has protectors for the outside top, both screens, and (IIRC) the areas around the dpad and buttons. It comes with a small cleaning cloth as well. Are these the sort of Hori screen protectors many people here have recommended, and if so, is that the standard price?

    Well, I saw a similar set of MadCatz screen protectors & shells at a nearby Wal-Mart for the same price. I personally would say I guess that would be the standard price, give or take $5-6. But the ones that you're referring to looked a lot like the original except a bit heavier than the official Nintendo stuff and come in three colors (I think...)

    I personally haven't heard anything in like a reference to buying them, but they do look rather decent. One of my co-workers has one and she only bought it because it was the first thing that caught her eye. That DS alone has been through abuse, but it's still intact - - with the protection in place.

    But it's totally up to you if you want to chuck out the money for it.

  6. These are my first photoshop projects of anything, so...

    Super Mario 3: P-Wing

    P-Wing.gif

    LT: I don't recall the pixels of the SNES P-Wing seeming this ugly. Was this scaled down or something?

    Dracula X / Vampire's Kiss: Richter crouching

    Char_Crouched-R.gif

    LT: Nah. No need for a sprite of him crouching, plus the size of the image makes having a background weird. It should have been transparent.

    I did what I could with 'em for the moment.

    ...Still looking for some decent images worth cropping of Eric Lecarde from Bloodlines.

    I don't recall the pixels of the SNES P-Wing seeming this ugly. Was this scaled down or something?

    *laughs* Sadly, yes. Copied, cropped, sized to 32x32. It's not getting any better than that unless I photoshop it myself.

    ...Second thought, I'm too lazy to even think that. I'll just find something else.

  7. Why doesn't it matter?

    Maybe because the general public just got used to referring it just as the Xbox 360.

    or...

    Most of us opt for that second one because we don't give a fuck.

    and don't feel like dragging out a name. Too much work.

  8. Speaking of demos, I recently played the Demo for PGR3. I'm not usually a fan of racing games at all(save Mario Kart, which doesn't really count), but this game got me hooked, and now that PGR4 not only looks amazing, but has motorcycles(Suzuki Hayabusa and Katanas ftw), I think I'm definitely grabbing it.

    For a moment, I thought that you were joking about the motorcycle thing until I checked out some sites in regards to it. Uh, why are they introducing motorcycles now? To possibly blow away the idea that rockstar attempted with Midnight Club? :?

  9. pretty much the reason why i usually don't download demo. their effect is usually:

    1- you want the game badly and after the game is out, you see that you get bored with it quickly.

    2-The demo doesn't want you do buy the game, because it's subpar.

    I played all the ace combat so far (except on handheld system) so i'm waiting for this one. i don't want to hear about the demo. Most of Ace Combat interest is replayability with different difficulty setting/plane etc.

    Ditto. The only demo that I did play was AC4. Only an hour, though. I still wanted to hold that anticipation for the actual game. Instead, I ran through AC2 for the 11th time. :-)

    My co-worker is steadily trying to get me to play the demo to AC6, but I can't bring myself to do that.

  10. You know, I've been looking at Ace Combat 6 over and over and have played the demo more than a million times, but I just don't feel that enthusiastic about it anymore. I mean from all the screens I've seen, the game looks amazing, but it just doesn't play like I had hoped.

    I just hope the demo is NOTHING compared to the actual game.

    Demos usually kill avid players with short detail, especially if it's the same one or two stages with limited selections of cars/planes/players as to the courses/stages that you can play them. Did you feel the same about AC5?

  11. Yo Doulifee,

    I didn't realize that I had a nearly identical sig to someone on here by the name of Fenrir. (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/member.php?u=7837) So, I kinda found this pic last night.

    I was wondering if you could slightly trim this down and have my name in some nice calligraphy from the upper left hand corner. Just a few shades darker than the sky, but the size doesn't have to block the sun.

    In the lower right hand corner, in pretty small, but visible solid white font (of your choosing), "Many in body, one in mind..." -Daisaku Ikeda

    Edit: If possible, could the full size of the plane remain in the finished product? Thanx.

  12. As stated a few posts above yours, Robert Downey Jr. If I had been asked who I would most like to play Tony Stark it probably would have been him, so that's awesome. Gwyneth Paltrow plays Pepper, which is pretty cool too.

    I'm just wondering how different this is going to be from the Iron Man animated movie that was released recently.

    Iron Man as a character, is pretty comedic. Tony Stark as not only his character image as well as a decently organized businessman, is very much an asshole. I'm not certain if Robert Downey Jr. can do that. But, I'll just hold my tongue and watch the movie when it hits.
