Kind of Bloop: Miles Davis for NES
prophetik music replied to Sam Ascher-Weiss's topic in General Discussion
holy crap! this is awesome! -
generally, teams use defensive formations to mirror what the offense is using. if a team is using two wide receivers, you'll see a 4-3 formation - meaning that there's four linemen on the line, three linebackers in the middle, and four DBs in the secondary. nickel refers to the fact that there's 5 DBs on the field - teams bring on one extra DB to cover the third WR, and leave one LB on the sideline (depending on the team, either the LOLB or the ROLB). in turn, dime has six DBs and one LB, and quarter has seven DBs (for 3rd and 20, or to defend a hail mary), one LB, and only 3 linemen (they drop the second DT). 4 deep would be to defend against the big pass - preventing a bomb but allowing them to get yards underneath. if it's 3rd and short, use a formation that stacks the line or blitzes the LBs. roster updates depend - i don't know if they're supported now that the new season is upon us. punting is easy. you hike the ball, pull the right stick back to charge it, and throw it forward to actually punt it. use the practice mode - it helps a LOT. if there's another type of mode that you need help with, ask me - i've played every madden since 2000. i love football games, and i have no problem paying the money for what equates to a roster update simply because i WANT those players on my team.

you can buy a phatty used for 50 bucks - or a slim for 70 - almost anywhere, with a warranty and everything. it's really not that huge of a deal, is it? or you could do what i did, which is buy a backwards-compatible ps3 for $275 on ebay. an MGS4 limited edition one, too.

Are there any games you guys play over and over again?
prophetik music replied to atmuh's topic in General Discussion
i still play gears of war 2 constantly, if only for horde mode. my old roomie and i play it often. just did a 1-50 run on river the other night. i still do some super smash bros 64 when people are over. nothing like a classic to get competition going. -

wait, you enjoyed too human? it drives me BONKERS. the targeting is impossibly bad. -
or give it to your friend without giving away your account, or download it for people who don't have high-speed access, or a lot of other issues.

i hope not, that'll drive game stores out of business really quick. digital distribution really screws over resellers.

Who wants to lend their thoughts on a potential XBLA title?

hopefully i was a help =) -
i had no idea you were so pissed at me, pyrion i don't know if you noticed while reading, but i used a fair bit of humor throughout this entire thing. in case you didn't know, CPUs rarely explode unless they're using LN2 for cooling, and even then it's really rare with the custom-made pots they use. the statement "prevent it from exploding" is an example of my odd sense of humor. actually, it DOES take around 30 seconds to get to 100c. you have to disable the auto-off, but after the cpu throttles itself it gets up there after approximately 20 more seconds. that's how i torched my first celeron =) you're right about the northbridge, i had forgotten about that. i didn't realize that the i7s had it on-die, either. i was quite clear to point out that if it fit, it will run when it comes to pci and pci-e slots. so i think that information is pretty clear, in that regard. i have no idea why your average computer user - which is what this guide was intended to be for - needs to know the difference between parallel and serialized graphics and expansion ports. i know i don't need to know that. i also don't know why there were issues with 3.2.6.2 and .3, or 3.2.7 for that matter. i didn't even mention that. i guess i'd assume that someone would know that a usb device doesn't process on it's own. doesn't everyone know that? while i didn't specifically say that ps/2 plugs aren't hot-pluggable, i think i made that idea pretty clear, didn't i? i didn't mention the part about 20-pins fitting because i didn't want some idiot to come complain to me that they did what i said and it torched their system or psu or something. yeah, they fit - but who cares? it's so rare to find 20-pin PSUs now, and they're so cheap to buy that it's just not worth the risk. 3.4: do i really even need to mention that? i expect people to use their eyes - if they want a server board, despite all the stuff i say about them, i think they'd know to check if their quadfire setup will fit on it. i don't even need to mention minimums, particularly since i'm giving real-world numbers and not bare hardware minimums. again, with gpu coolers - i fully realize and understand this. don't know why it matters - i'm not recommending that people buy them, i'm just telling them what it is. i only mention it so that someone doesn't buy a dualie and block their only NIC port or something. about pfc, i've never encountered that, even using this computer at a lot of really shady (power-wise) locations. there are problems with both a multi-rail setup and a single-rail setup. i recommend - like i said - that you have one rail for every major power-drawing processor on your system. that way people don't buy a huge psu with forty rails and blame me when it can't run their gtx 295s. i didn't talk about amps because you don't really need to worry about them with the consumer market the way it is. if you buy a psu under the above specs - enough watts, with the right number of rails - you'll get the right number of amps on each rail. it's simple math. and it's easier for joe counterstrike to figure out. that's nice, which is why i said specifically that they're cheapo desktop units. not for power systems. or did you think that your psu could really handle an sli setup with a 500w psu? apevia is newegg's brand name. it's not their only one, but it's their primary one. actually, pcp&c's 750w psu only supplies around 700w. but you were close. 6.4.3: which is why i said that there's a difference between a good one that includes a warranty and a pos one from walmart. for christs sake, pyrion. did you notice the word "essentially"? IDT only works on certain components, and the nature of it means that it doesn't always work. which is why i said that you should never expect more than the slowest device on the cable. they went from questionable to horrid when 1/3rd of drives were bricking out of the box, and the firmware update that they gave out not only torched another 1/3 of the drives but also invalidated the warranty on them. rdram was in the p4? i had no idea. cool. ugh, 64bit vs. 32bit makes my head hurt. why they didn't just go 64-bit after xp - or after vista, for that matter - makes no sense to me. you can't really buy ddr3 that isn't within that guideline, though - at least, the stuff outside the guideline is WAY outside (like, 2.2v). didn't think about the oxidation problem with aluminum, but i did point out that it's not as strong as steel. lian-li is now the top dog in overall quality and consistency, which is all i cared about when i put this together. as a whole, i appreciate your comments, but some of the stuff that you pointed out i either omitted on purpose for the sake of brevity (i know, it's 64 pages...) or else just didn't worry about because it didn't need to be said. ninja edit: i know it's not a glitch. i just worded it a little weird. edit 2: i'm not trying to be snarky, either, for what it's worth. this was one of those stream of consciousness posts.

i'd be glad to take a look at it. i've been working with a studio that's in a similar position - well, we're farther along than you, but there's a lot more people in the studio than what you're working with. just send me a pm or email. -
well...you can submit those tracks all you want, but the derivative nature of music 3000 means that you probably won't get accepted. you never know - you might be a boy genius - but (no offense) i doubt it.

Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: Threshold of a Dream - History
prophetik music replied to Aetherius's topic in Projects
i got it, i just haven't listened to it yet. so give me some time. -
sure, it looks the same, but itunes isn't recognizing it as the same. maybe you should actually try what i suggest before you tell me it doesn't work. another way to check is to look in the album scroll thingie. if they're still showing up out of order with a hundred different names, try my suggestion and they'll fix themselves.

shows where her mind is all the time. i expected you to have a girlfriend of upstanding moral values. you have SHAMED me, tweekxkxks.

we've been pimping this game out for ages at gamecrazy. if you preorder, you get a shirt and everything =) seriously though, it looks really entertaining. i can't wait to see it in action.

you can fix the 50 different versions of OCRemix by selecting them all in itunes and changing their artist names to something else and then back to OCR all at the same time. it's an error i used to get with the first album project from here. i'd suggest either making a playlist of all ocr songs or keeping the album the way it is (OCRemix). that's how i find all my ocr songs at once.
