  1. hooray for ff4! and 1308!
  2. all the way home. i had a lot of fun this year =) thanks for everyone making it awesome!
  3. i enjoyed nfs carbon, all the cod games, and midnight club. it's a lot of racing, though, and that's not really the 360's strength.
  4. i'd get it on academic discount as well, i think. yeah, 7000 is awesome. i've goofed around with it. really looking forward to release =)
  5. leaving in a few minutes. see you all there!
  6. it's related to the crappy thermal paste they use on the heatsinks on the gpu and cpu of the unit. the coolers become unseated, the system detects a dangerous rise in temp over a certain amount of time, and it'll shut off until you fix the error and reset it. kittykar here on ocr fixes them for minimal cost. it's really not a big deal, you can buy the stuff to fix them for like 20$.
  7. it's kotor + guns. similar to the last game + guns to come out (aka fallout 3, which was knocked as a more modern oblivion), it's pretty cool what they did with it. it's got a good storyline and creative characters with a lot of backstory. good example of an american rpg, imho.
  8. i wouldn't mind being involved if this ever gets off the ground. i respect his work.
  9. i know of him, but i wasn't around when he was active (or when he died). i'd be willing to possibly contribute, if you ever get something together.
  10. i haven't even listened to what's been sent to me by aeth yet, but i should be able to do that today. get an idea as to what's going on so far.
  11. you knew avien? that's awesome. not many people around here knew him. welcome in!
  12. pick someone up once you're there. there's always someone looking to get a room once you're there.
  13. wikipedia has a biased article about it.
  14. i'm up for anyone to do it, really. but if no one gets on it before, like, march, its mine.
  15. incorrect - they're not 'porting' it at all. actually, they're building it for both systems simultaneously. there is a difference, albeit a slight one. it'll hopefully prevent the issues that you get when it's built for one system and it comes to a different one after release.
  16. and the last 7-post review bites the dust. i loved the mix. a bit repetitive, but as a whole i thought it was great. one of those mixes i never got around to listening to, because i never played streets of rage. nice work.
  17. i said ps2 because you could play ps1 games on it. i realize that they weren't made for it, but you could play those originals on it as well, expanding the library. you're also forgetting ffxii, which was a damn good game, albeit really short. i hate their business practices and crappy quality control. i love their products.
  18. uh, drop-d implies guitar tunings, which implies rock, which is what i was talking about. which is wy i said 'solid basis for drop-d in rock music...will go with power'. edit: this is what i get for not reading an entire post. this is exactly what i'm saying. and, it's all i'm saying.
  19. i'll be really honest. if i do a good job on this one, MAYBE I'LL FINALLY PASS A SONG THROUGH THE JUDGES THAT I DID BY MYSELF. i've tried like 15 times, i've got one that i think will pass on the panel right now.
  20. i'm of the honest opinion that there will never be another rpg console like the ps2. there just isn't anything else out there that has more than a few good games. granted, ps2 had 7-8 years to put good games on it, but i don't think anything will match it. and i never owned one, so don't call me a fanboy if anything, i'm an ms fanboy who hates ms.
  21. you're missing what i was talking about. with electronic stuff like that, it's not a big deal, but with live music, things are different. d minor is an awesome range for everything in the orchestra because of where each note sits on the instruments. for example, in d minor, f is the third (lowered from f# for the major). that's low 1 on the e string of the violin (a really dark sounding note compared to the rest of the e string), and the d and a sit in low positions as well. d minor for horns is a minor, which means that they can yell the root on a high a, about the limit for most non-professional horn players (and soundfonts). it gives you a solid basis for drop-d in rock music, and since the low d on a bass's 5th string is about as low as most cheap headphones, car speakers, and normal speakers will go with power, it sounds the best on most radios. for trumpets and clarinets, d minor is actually e minor, giving you a solid high b and maybe even an e on the trumpet (which a good player can reach without screeching) and good range down into the chalumeaux ending on a low e. same with bass clarinet. bones and tuba have good range in both directions on d minor. it's a good range for double reeds too - relatively easy to play compared to some of the other minors. do you see what i mean? a key 'sounding' better on instruments or vocals is relative to what tones they produce the most naturally. d minor 'fits' the most instruments the best, similar to how bb major is a good fit for most bands. another good example is the choir i used to sing with. if we had problems dropping the pitch every time we sang a song between the beginning and the end, we'd go a half step in either direction and start it there instead (we did mostly unaccompanied music). we'd stick the pitch like we never had an issue then. certain keys just sit better.
  22. there's one or two people competing (with me, lol) for the windfish theme. if they're both REALLY good, i might considering having one tweak it to fit that secondary track a bit. the issue is simply that it's the equivalent of ff7's one winged angel. i mean, they didn't let some unknown hack do it, you know? they had a bunch of the best mixers on the project on it, because it's the most famous of all the songs. and everyone likes it. windfish is the same in terms of popularity with this soundtrack, and i think we should do the same with it.
