http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=2481 Some dude "ported" Silent Hill 2 into an 8-bit NES like format. I say like because clearly the graphics are better than anything the NES was capable of, and the audio is as well. Cool as all hell.

Thanks guys, I'll throw you a bone. Have reworked it a bit (drums again, are last, and the placeholder track is still there but I have done a BIT of tweaking in some places). I have the tune pretty much done length wise, I just need to fill it in with with the vocals. This version actually has one vocal line in it, the one take I was most happy with from DrumUltima (who still needs to do a few more takes... and starla has to do hers.. where are you starla? D: ). So here's a bit of explanation about the track: Empty stretches with just the clean guitar are the spots where dialogue will go, for example: 2:23 - 3:02: Iris' final speech to Maxim before she fades away for however many years and is reborn as Lufia (WHOOPS SPOILERS). Iris' theme kicks in right when her speech ends, and repeats twice (I'm going to spruce up the repeated part). 4:16 - 4:43 is the final exchange between Selan and Maxim as Selan lays dying in Maxim's arms, while the Sinistral's floating island they're on crashes to the earth and kills them both (SPOILARS WHAPS). DrumUltima's take at 4:37 REALLY impressed me, and I think it gives the piece a LOT more emotional OOMPH, and actually gets to me whenever I listen to it Here is the dialogue as it has been rewritten for the parts (because it's kind of stilted straight from the game): 2:22 - 3:03 Iris: This was a battle of judgement for us... that you exist, and resonate with the dual blade, means that people act apart from the Sinistrals. defeat them, and you need them not. But humans still need faith. The dual blade began to ring, and thus, I came to you... to see everything. To see the end. I am the Mistress of Death. It would be against my nature to save the lives of so many. With my final breath, I shall open the door leading below. There is little time left, but I will be watching from afar to see whether or not people have the power to build their own future. 4:16 - 44:3: Maxim: Selan, I've changed the the course of the island. Our son will be safe now. Maxim: I'm tired. I'm so tired, Selan. Let me just... sleep next to you... Selan: Oh, Maxim... I want to go... I want to go and see our son again... Maxim: Just rest... I'll hold you till the end. I promise. And here... we go: http://www.tindeck.com/audio/my/dzfv/Lufiadialogue

You should ideally (as stated before) record with a pretty even EQ, and then do post EQ work. Why are we still discussing this?

Update: I'm now working 2 jobs (in the same day, almost every day), and have almost no time to record in the near-future. Also am having no inspiration on my selected tune, so you might want to free it up for now. Sorry :T

Seriously, though, I honestly think this "portrayal" (lightly used term here) of Roll is one of the single most irritating and annoying things I have ever seen in my life. EVER. How any director worth anything (or even a worthless director) called cut and print after her delivering any of those lines astounds me. What the fuck, man? What the fuck?

Will this turn out like the Twisted Metal movie? IE a bunch of stupid hype from the "director", and then when he gets all butthurt about it he decides not to show it to anyone? Edit: Roll is ruined. Fuck this movie.

Why am I not surprised that something from Alienware costs far more than it probably should.

Have you ever noticed how Sonic seems to have a brand new 3d adventure just in time for Christmas every year on every major console, but when it comes to Mario they're extremely spaced out (one per console usually)? I guess I don't really have a point.

Yep, probably going to snag the HD myself.

You think Risk takes a while to play? Try Axis and Allies; the original. That game takes DAYS.

Holy shit You mentioned this the night after I mentioned to Ashley that I want to buy Risk and start playing it again. Then I said fuck it I'll find it online and play it there. PLAY IT

Well, not really. But why, everytime I'm about shopping somewhere, when I see HD TVs do I see them ALWAYS show a grainy picture with lots of pixelation and digital signal degradation (fast movement = BLOCKY ARTIFACTS)? Is it from splitting the signal to like 20 different TVs?

I've gone on long enough without saying it, but that face always reminds me of a South Park Canadian. Budday.

Thanks. Snagged two of them to.. ... you know. "Play". Heh.

All the same to you; but world of difference to anyone who actually listens to it. Meshuggah's very essence lies in the mids.

Direct input like that is going to result in some pretty bad sounding stuff. It takes a lot of know-how to make direct input in that form sound GOOD; you might want to try out the myriad of guitar software out there. But again, job. It will cost you money for that software (Guitar Rig, Amplitube, etc)

No income? Nothing, then. You need SOME money to get started. Get a job.

Didn't get the job. Probably not going. D:

Except for the fact that Mario is a plumber in name only. In Metroid, Samus' bounty hunting is tied into the story itself. How do you think she got tangled up in the whole Metroid saga to begin with? orite bounty hunting

100% disagree. That's probably why I couldn't get into the first two Primes at all. How many times do we have to play a game where Samus finds herself alone on a desolate planet? I mean, come on. There can only be so many scenarios where that can occur for a bounty hunter. A BOUNTY HUNTER! Let her do some actual Bounty Hunting! I want an Adventures of Samus Aran game where you explore the galaxy, interacting with the various lifeforms that inhabit it and, you know, throw shit down.

Slide your pick up or down the a wound string(s). Really easy.

oh yay atmuh's server, now we can get slapped and killed in mid game just for his amusement

I always wanted them to explore the vastness of the Metroid universe in which Samus is just one small part. There's so much out there untouched that the potential is just limitless.

Yeah, every person I've talked to says it crashes. Ash has had it crash 3 times on her (once a day so far), I've had it crash twice, and her brother has had it crash too. It's not often, and given that you can jump back into it rather quickly only makes it an annoyance and not a frustration.

Ashamee would be my girlfriend (she told you, I was the person who fucks her). And I did that because she shot me first D:
