[QUOTE="cakeorrdeath"]Personally I think Nintendo should have bundled a VC controller with the system. If they had of done that I would have bought far more titles on impulse. The knowledge that I actually have to go out to a shop and buy a controller in order to play them has meant I have only bought NES games so far.Blackbond

Not only that but it would have made it easier on devs to make games that don't cator to the Wiimote. For instance I can't ever see Fighters working on the Wii unless you use the classic controller. 

That is the biggest problem with the Wii. That motion sensing junk does not work well with all games so why couldn't they make it optional. No you have to wiggle your hands around for every single game.

[QUOTE="merjout"]I honestly don't understand why anyone buys these VC games. The games have no improvements so it's basically the same game from 20 years ago released for more milking.bryehngeocef

For me, it's one reason: I don't have to keep my NES/SNES/Genesis/TG-16 consoles hooked up. I'm actually re-buying stuff I bought 10-15-20 years ago so I can keep my classic systems & carts safely stored.

I'd love to see some improvements made to the games, at least pro-scan support if not the Xbox Live Arcade style remakes...but overall I feel it's good value to shop on Virtual Console.

Everyone knows there are other ways to play these games. It's nothing like Live where they add Hd resolutions, online play and many improvements. I wouldn't pay for any of these VC games even if they were $1.00

               Well it first all started on sunday. Im driving on the road to meet a guy up 4 hours away from me that is gonna buy my sound system from me that came out my car. I was driving along and I hear on ESPN radio Josh Hancock dead at 29 involved in a car crash. I was thinking o how great thats makes 2 pitchers in 5 years. Well I tried to set that aside then I finally got to my destination to meet the guy up buying my system I got paid well of course but I had to let that system go that I loved just because it wouldnt fit in my new car but o well I suppose. Well the drive back was depressing but thats all that was bad that day. Moving onto yesterday I was carrying a piano inside our house with my dad and my hand slipped underneath the piano and caught something sharp and slash..... Ya my finger gets cut wide open and it was deep and I got 10 stiches how exciting right. Moving past that later that night I tell my brother to go play the xbox 360 because he claims it was locking up. He then starts playing outfit and locks up again. I believed him now and then next time we turned it on NA NA NA NA 3 RED BLINKING LIGHTS AHHH!!! Well I did all the stuff like take the hard drive out unplug it and all that and ya it still blinked red. So I called customer support and yes of course I got another arab tech guy. He was nice though and pretty easy to understand considering he had a arab accent but ya. Thankfully my 360 was bought last july which was my 2nd one and this one is covered under warranty so I was on and off the phone in about 10 minutes with them and they are sending me a prepaid box and he said the whole process of getting it back should be within 2 weeks. Not to bad at all MS I was happy with the customer service once again but jeez please release the new CPU soon so people dont have to have any more sunny side up CPU's anymore ok. Well thats my story lol sorry for the wall of text im too lazy to space it out and ya my finger is killing me right now but I guess this belongs on system wars because what im trying to say is atleast Microsoft is trying. They know their 360's are trash right now and are not ripping people off with the 90 day warranty anymore so hope you enjoyed!! 360 4 Life!!!

A lot of people make up stories from some reason on this board. I am not saying you are lying but you said this happened on Sunday yet you were playing just last night.

Because not everyone around the world has HDTv or an internet connection. Why not give them a cheaper alternative? Let us see how many will buy the PS3.

Hi. I know that this has been done before on the 360 forums, but i cant remember seeing a topic like this ever on the Ps3 boards so...

 

Post your level, name of your Character and Class (even Custom Classes)

 

here's mine : Level 23, Subas Hellfire, Mage Knight (custom class ; cross between combat and magic) 

 

Have fun Comparing! lol.

Is their a way to see someone's level the way it's done on the 360?

Hey everyone,

It was just  announced yesterday that Dell will be offering Linux pre-installed on their machines beginning late-May of this year. Here's a link to the article http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS8661763902.html  The Linux flavor that it is assumed they will offer is Ubuntu, and though I personally have never tried Linux, I have always intended to. I feel like making a linux partition on my computer now after reading this.

My main topic for discussion is, how do you feel that this decision for the top PC-retailer to start offering Linux will affect the PC game industry? Will more games start to be Linux-compatible?

No one will buy a Dell with linux for home casual use. Only servers and developers will be interested in this.

It only sucks because Epic wanted these to be free but MS mandated that they use their pricing structure ($10 for 4 maps).  I'm getting them on Thursday.  Can't wait.REVENGEotSITH

Microsoft loses a lot of mony on marketing and producing the 360 while developers have record profits. Why would they give things away for free? Who here cannot afford $10.00?
