lots of misinformation running around in this thread. it IS legal to back up your psx bios, as long as your unit is fully functional. it IS legal to back up your games in .iso or other formats, as long as your unit is fully functional AND you still own the games. it IS legal to download backups for your games in .iso or other formats, as long as your unit is fully functional AND you still own the exact same version of the game.

this isn't actually totally true. if it was, then rom sites would be illegal, once and for all. you're allowed to download a version of your game as long as you own the discs/carts AND you own a working system AND it's the EXACT SAME version. so, if you own the original and there's a re-release on a different system, that's illegal. if you own the normal version and the platinum hits version includes a bit of extra content, that's illegal. but you can download the rom of Super Mario Kart if you own a working n64 and use it on your computer, no problem. edit: for those suggesting the PC versions, they're glitchy as hell on modern computers thanks to architecture changes and the simple fact that no one's using w98 anymore. it's rare that you can play the whole way through without it taking a dump a few times, too. ff7, particularly, is just a poorly done port, which is why ff8 sold so poorly and then why they didn't make ff9 on pc.

nice job noticing the title: E3: MICROSOFT. we know everyone here is a nintendo fanboy. we don't have to fanboy so much that we discuss their crap in threads completely unrelated to that. as a guy with both a ps3 and a 360, i really just don't like ps3's online play. it feels so much less streamlined. not to mention that for 35$ a year (no one really pays 50$ any more, they just wait for amazon's once-a-month sale) you get very smooth matchmaking that doesn't freak out and drop like psn's does all the time. not to mention stuff that's coming or here like hulu, espn, last.fm, twitter, facebook, and the complete integration with windows through the media center stuff. now that the new 360's got wifi built in, the primary reason anyone would want a ps3 is to get the exclusive games. i don't think there's that many anymore, either. edit: i just noticed toadofsky's post. does anyone else think that this is a gross understatement? i'm sure, dude, that you've never looked at what games your friends have played, or interacted with humans through the voice chat with 360 or text chat (do people really think that ps3 is more advanced if you don't even have cross-game voice-chat until three years into the life of the console still) on the ps3. that's ok. see, everyone else who owns a 360 has taken it online at least once unless they don't have a cable connection. so your majority of one can sit in the corner and enjoy yourself. i'll join the 21st century. have a nice time. edit 2: that came out wrong. i'm not trying to be mean, i'm trying to point out how ridiculous it is to buy a system that costs 300$ and a game that costs 60$ (with a majority of the development costs for both going into multiplayer connectivity) and then never use the online play. why would you even buy games, then? most of the games nowadays would be total ripoffs to you, since there are very few games that are worth the price for the single-player campaign only.

oh, totally =) don't get me wrong - the kinect isn't going to sell on the order of the wii or the ps3. it is, however, going to be probably one of the best-selling "accessory" units ever, behind the motion plus. that's why it's cool, and a big deal. let's wait and see if they make decent games for it, or if it turns out to be more "eye of judgment" crap.

no one cares about the uber-ds. i don't think a console's portable when it's the size of your torso. rising isn't 360 only, but it's being developed lead on 360. that means that it'll look way better on 360, then PC, then PS3 last. lead consoles always blow away the ported console. not to mention that, thanks to this conference, you can now get a 360 for 150$. which is a better price point than any other console - including stuff like the go and the newer DS models.

i think you're all missing something here. MS is the only one of the big three to release new hardware. sure, sony'll show the Move camera again (or whatever they're calling it now), but Kinect represents the first time you're going fully controllers-off on big-name games. plus a new console refresh, which sony proved was enough to take the show last time. plus GOW3, MGS:R, COD: Black Ops, halo: reach, and the crytek teaser. i don't see sony able to bring up that many big-name games. GOW has sold what, 15 million from two games? plus exclusive content for COD, first MGS game on a system other than sony's, crytek's first game in a year or two for a console, and halo reach which will probably sell 10m easy. awesome presentation, i think.

got one coming your way. i knew i had a wave somewhere, just took forever to find it.

anyone else see the trailer for this? looks really good. just look for it on youtube - people have been uploading it ever half an hour to avoid Ubi's copyright restrictions. i was a little surprised - i guess i missed the news that they're going back to italy this time around instead of something newer, but it should be interesting to see how he copes with the ending of the last game. and, by extension, how desmond deals with the end of the last game, too. what do you think?

i love everyone and everyone should too

OverClocked ReMix Design ?'s and Issues
prophetik music replied to Liontamer's topic in Site Issues & Feedback
there's a reason that you can't do that - mainly because there isn't a way to classify most remixes. some songs may start out chiptune, then go to rock, then to 'orchestral'...(black wing metamorphosis). there are tags, however, that you can use to find remixes. -
everyone loves me but no one quotes me in their sig like it's 2007 again =( although, tbh, that phrase is how i've always differenciated between modes and kind-of-tonicized pitch class sets. if you're just using interesting tones, it's not a mode. if you're using it properly in respect to traditional modal harmonies, then it's clearly a mode.
-
done. check your pm box.
-
oh, totally. the whole point of modes is that it's the same pitch class of every other mode based around that major key - like, a dorian is the same as c lydian and d mixolydian and f# locrian. it's how those pitches are used - what's tonic, where the dominant is (in a dorian, the dominant isn't D, which is major, or e, which is a form of v, but actually G, which is VIII), etc. that's the point of all alternate tonal structures, really - it's not the size of the pitch class set, but how you use it

i remember what cpu you've got, man. i put it in there, didn't i? =) my gaming system is an i7 860 (2.8ghz x 4, plus HT) with a core 216 gfx card, so i'm sure i'd kill it. i'll look into it more. which scripts and mods would you recommend? edit: steam's got reunion, too. i know nothing about the storyline - should i play reunion first?

racist? racist how? that's like the racist zombie RE5 thing, where the zombies were black because IT'S IN AFRICA, MORONS.
