It honestly still surprises me that people make bullrush decisions on global warming and cooling based on single data points. The only way to truly know if we're going through some big climate shift would be to observe the ice caps for many, many decades, if not centuries. We haven't been monitoring the ice levels long enough to know anything for sure.

Took a few years off and I'll be going back next Spring or Fall, depending on financial status.

Yoshi's Story. If you can't beat this game, you may need to take a serious look into your platforming skills.

The SNES had a slower processor, but it had superior color, a superior sound chip, larger RAM, allowed for more sprite planes than the Genesis that weren't limited to what could be displayed on them, and had a higher resolution. It could handle almost anything that ran on the Genesis, even if it ran just a little bit slower. If I remember correctly, the TurboGrafx couldn't even handle multiple backgrounds, where the SNES could handle multiple scrolling backgrounds, as well as pseudo-3D planes, such as the rolling level in Castlevania 4, without using a good chunk of the processing power. In all, the SNES processed slower than the Genesis or TG, but with it's better assortment of hardware, the load on the CPU was less than it would have been on either of the other two, and provided some great technical splendor for the time.

But, in my opinion, gaming shouldn't be reduced to a battle of hardware specs when the games are built to run on the system they are on. In the end, it all comes down to which system had the best games, and this is the real source of debate, not technical specs. I may love the Genesis more than the SNES, but the SNES had the superior library in terms of broad appeal and amount of games locally available in each genre it covered. Name a genre and the SNES likely had either the superior port of a cross-platform, or multiple original games that pushed the bar of the genre itself. The Genesis has many great games, but the appeal is a bit limited to platforming and action games, with one or two good games in other genres. The TG had some great splendors, but it's library is very limited and often a bit lacking due to hardware difficulties, from what I remember.

Actually, no, I don't recall any kind of technical issues with any of these consoles in my experience, and any issues that did occur were very uncommon at the most. You just seem to want to validate your opinion as fact.

I don't remember seeing this much spam on the front page in any of the time I've been here. Mods need to get on this.

So the British can't see us coming.

Sweet Lord, that's creepy.

[QUOTE="Bruin4ev3r1520"] Damn... I might have that job soon. What was so terrible about it? Bruin4ev3r1520

The job itself is what you'd expect, just long hours of heavy stocking and cleaning. It wasn't too bad, aside from the exhaustion by the end of the night. My hatred comes more from the fact that my supervisors and managers were constantly on my ass about hurrying up to do jobs that could possibly kill me if I did them too quickly or wrong (yelled at me to just tackle a fridge into the overhead when I was on the automatic ladder, etc.). It's long hours, your work is rarely appreciated, absolutely no benefits (not even an employee discount), your treated more as a disposable mop than an asset to the store, and then they just let me go with only 4 days notice. Never received a complaint from me, never late, always did my work, and I received a Homer Award for keeping the store cleaner than it had been in years (straight from the store manager's mouth), and they let me go because I "didn't show good work ethic", which I later found out from the garden manager was because it took me 6 hours to pressure wash the outside garden section and took longer stacking wood and mulch because I wanted to make sure there was room for all of it. I was literally fired because I spent too much time making sure I was doing my job well, not because I slacked off or became a liability.

Word of advice, don't do your entry-level job well, just do it well enough.

There is one good thing: you don't have to wear the apron after the store closes.
