  1. Out of curiosity, do you have a Pre or a Pre Plus? and how well does the emulator work? Does GBA work? SNES? asking because i'm strongly debating whether my next phone should have webOS (my preference) or Android.
  2. I've had this since you posted it in the WIP forums. I'm a sucker for acoustic guitar(s) and Mega Man, so this was a no-brainer for me. The slower section takes some of the edge off of Metal Man and reveals a soft heart inside his chassis. It makes me pensive. But I really want to hear the second, faster section expanded upon in some sort of Latin-style take on Metal Man - replete with percussion, accompaniment like brass/bass (I'm thinking El Legarto), maybe vocals even. It makes me wonder if this woulda worked better as two separate pieces, but I'm happy with this.
  3. I never reviewed this remix...pathetic of me! This is awesome stuff: it goes to show how amazingly versatile the source is. The mood is completely shifted to something happy, warm, maybe a little nostalgic and optimistic for the future, sort of all rolled into one... and it totally fits a wedding. (Is there a reason for the overt wedding feel to this piece?) Wish I could hear more out of you, Mr. Litrio; this doth sate mine desire quite well.
  4. Ahh, need to start on this. Did you choose Grant for his freedom of motion while jumping?
  5. oh yeah and happy birthday to kidd cabbage, harmonious dissonance, and ...ahh, anyone else i may have missed. (edit: but no babies for you >D)
  6. i think it's more an offer of my babies. i don't think i would want to physically bear children. i'm not sure what he'd do with em - probably whatever he does with babies anyway.
  7. back when i used a palm GB emulator, I found the pokemon trading card game to be perfectly suited to run at 75% speed with piss-poor controls.
  8. bells? epic. marching? epic. screaming guitar? epic. brass? epic. the climax at ~1:44: epic; being followed by the guitar taking over as lead: epic. 2:30-2:35, another climax. epic. the breakdown following it? epic. airship and it's climax? epic. the soloing? epic. alright, at 4:50 it does start to drag. prelude isn't enough to save it, but the presentation of the main theme does. ending? epic. at this point i'm not even sure what "epic" means, ...but don't make me bust out an epic stopwatch. lol
  9. I love blasting this, even if nobody gets the same emotional rush as I do when I hear the themes. Epic is right...this would fit like a glove in a FFIV movie. The marching had me hooked the first time I heard it.
  10. I did read that comment. Didn't you end up with more energy tanks than you needed anyway?
  11. the logo should go with all the other logos at www.google.com/logos And I love how it's made using HTML/CSS/JS instead of Flash. Seems like the whole world's sticking it to Adobe (well, Chrome does come bundled with it...)
  12. But I'm not talking about the software on the server; I'm talking about what's on the disc(s). You can own a disc or a cartridge or a memory card or a digital download that contains a game, but you don't "own" the rights to that game..you can use it, but you can't call it your own work or (in the case of like 99% of commercial console titles) reverse engineer/modify it. If they want to charge each unique person who plays the game (by account on the console's network), then that's their call under the terms of the license. Er.. hm, where is the license in boxed console games? I imagine there has to be one somewhere.
  13. just because you own the disk/entire collection doesn't mean you actually own the software it contains. you usually just have a license to use it..the designers still own the rights to the software and its code. just like computer software. that being said, I've noticed many products allow you to transfer that license such as by deactivating your product and letting someone else activate it under their name, like NI lets you do with their libraries. Maybe the incentive there is if you like a product enough, you'll be likely to upgrade/spend money on their other products in the future. DLC (reasonable stuff; if we're talking MMOs: not game-breaking equipment but expansion packs or access to new missions/areas) is the equivalent, I'd say.
  14. Great way to make money off of people who buy used titles... titles that they already made money off of the first time they were sold. I have to hand it to them for having the balls to do it. Who'll challenge them?
  15. even though I love CV3 more, I don't think it can be as exciting as MM2.. but I'll have to see, hehe.
  16. cognrats on graduating. we'll see if i end up writing one of my poems - my life is pretty conducive right now.
  17. well that's depressing. i mean, if I had a ps3 or a 360 I'd buy it anyway, but I'd still be griping about it. mm.. it's not like Order of Ecclesia didn't do that anyway. I know the point of the villagers all being Belmont descendants ties it back to the canon, but it was so loose: I hardly cared by the time I found out while playing.
  18. what does that even mean, "reboot the franchise"? I feel like i'm swimming in some buzzwords here.
  19. oh i know, but I can already tell I'll be busy, and next year = 21 = probably more to do.
  20. happy birthday. wish i could go to vegas this year but i'm not (yet) 21 anyway. maybe next year.
  21. It's exciting perhaps more in a geeky sense than in the minds of the average end-user. The difference for me between Chrome OS and any Linux distro is that there's greater name recognition behind Google than there is behind Canonical/Ubuntu (it doesn't help that nobody knows how to say it when they see it, either). Plus, this is a somewhat new paradigm, or at least the first time a major player is advancing a browser-based OS that is garnering serious public interest. You could still use any linux distro on a netbook. You'd also probably have to set it up yourself. And just like most linux distros, it can be used with an ARM processor instead of an x86 one, resulting in a netbook with less power consumption (at the expense of less processing power, though I imagine with optimizations and some application control, you wouldn't notice) needing less battery capacity (and maybe less board space too) resulting in a smaller, lighter computer that can run just as long as long-lasting netbooks of today. You could buy ARM netbooks now (for whatever reason i think they're called smartbooks...don't ask me why), but there aren't many. Again, this is where just the name "Google" can cause change. All that said, I don't see myself using this on a netbook... maybe on a tablet. Maybe. (ZOMG HPalm webOS tablets!!!)
