  1. Because people can be angry, immature, and evil.
  2. A new Rival Schools game would be awesome as a 3D cel-shaded fighter. That series always had some awesome presentation.
  3. I love 3rd Strike because it proves that the series could progress after II and Alpha. Plus it's a really fucking awesome game. I want to see Capcom try more things. Bring back more II/Alpha characters, introduce new characters. Age some characters, progress the story. There's always somewhere to go with Street Fighter.
  4. If only they'd put all this effort into just making STREET FIGHTER 4.
  5. I don't think that the donations are the real issue here. It's the fact is that he used other people's work without giving them credit. Leaving legality aside, that's just something you never do if you think of yourself as an "artist." If you use someone else's work, even if it IS a note-for-note MIDI file of a video game song, you have to give that person credit, because sequencing something by ear is not easy. It takes a lot of time to recreate something note-for-note just by listening to it. I do it all the time when I remix; I have a song playing and I'm constantly repeating two or three bars of music just to separate all of the parts. This guy talks about the MIDIs like they're nothing special; something to the effect of "last time I checked, koji wrote those songs." He fails to recognize that sequencing a MIDI is hard work for other people. The irony is that he can't do it himself by ear, so he turns to those MIDI files for guidance. I feel bad for the artists he ripped; this guy won't own up to what he did publicly, and he won't give credit where credit is due. It's pretty despicable.
  6. I've gotten over 13,000 in Nanaca Crash. Yeah, I have no life.
  7. I'm waiting for an inevitable PC version.
  8. Oh please, don't use the can't-afford-samples argument. That's such a cop out. I use free sounds almost exclusively. And my biggest problem was with your approach to the piece. I dislike it when people are so quick to write off certain kinds of music as "elevator music," especially bossa nova and certain kinds of smooth jazz. The ideas you have are good, but like I said before, don't pigeonhole yourself into vapidity just to fit some ill-defined concept like "elevator music." Expand, explore, and adapt. Good genre adaptations have always been welcomed at OCR.
  9. Complete with Congress standing up every 2 minutes and applauding for 5.
  10. Actually it's more of a customization thread, as opposed to just a post your desktop thread. Anyway, I know what you're doing, atmuh. You've added some web item to your desktop that has the links in it, right? Check this out. It's a version of my desktop html file. You're supposed to set the HTML file itself as your background. Make the background of the HTML document whatever you want your background image to be. http://shariqansari.com/bluemenu.zip
  11. Links on the desktop are easy. What kind of white box are you seeing?
  12. There you go. Also, the OCR forums aren't a chatroom. You should make an effort to use proper punctuation, at least. And write out words like "you." It's not realtime chat. You have time to write out your posts.
  13. Why thank you. As for programs for a useful desktop, check out Rainlendar, TClock Lite, the NeoWin uxtheme.dll patcher (so you can use msstyles in XP), etc.
  14. I'm working on a remix of Midna's Desperation. No promises as to when it'll be done, though.
  15. Fanatism isn't a word. The word you're looking for is fanaticism. Just FYI.
  16. XM has commercials on something like 3 or 4 music channels because Clear Channel (the shitty normal radio company) happens to control them, and so they're "entitled" to broadcast advertisements on those channels. Nobody really listens to those "CM" channels anyway.
  17. That feature is specific to your player hardware. Not all tuners do that, and some XM players have that feature too, I think. In any case, I have XM in my car and it's jawesome.
  18. We went to school together? When was this an who are you?
  19. I'm talking about the game actually being revealed, as opposed to Capcom just saying "HERE IS LOGO ROFL"
  20. Capcom's next game in the ZX series of Megaman games is finally revealed. Scan 1 Scan 2 Info about characters from Atomic Fire Looks like this time around, the main template for the Live Metal/Biometal is based on Axl, from MMX7 and MMX8, though that's not confirmed. I hope it's either as awesome more more awesome than ZX, which was pretty awesome.
  21. If a 3 or 4 threatens the king on the first move, all you have to do is move IN with your king. Now your king is safe. You can't kill on the first move.
  22. Me too, but for different reasons. When someone says "Why don't you just do it yourself?" it makes it sound like arranging and producing a piece of music is something that anyone can do with enough effort. I don't think that's the case at all. Some people are just not good at music, and no amount of effort will help them make something truly remarkable. Such is the case for any artform.
