If only I had the energy to whip up a picture... or the motivation. |

Yeah that works. Or get a CD player that will play MP3s and burn them to CD-R. (Or DVD-R?) |

For experienced players the only time hearts should really matter is on a minimalist game while facing Trinexx or Ganon... those are some toughies. |

What exactly is FFX's style of graphics? If you mean its style of character design, I think it would look like crap. |

. Well yeah that too. That also sucks. I think you can miss once, maybe twice if you manage to get enough sword swings in between rod usages. I've never done it with the Level 1 sword but someone on gamefaqs was recently talking about it. Kind of sounds improbable since it's hard even with the Master Sword.

That's what you get for living in Canada. If you take take pictures of the bear with flash photography and poke it with a stick it will generally run away. |

I've heard that argument that gamecube doesn't have mature games as a problem. It's nowhere near the problems the N64 had. I was almost embarassed to go down the N64 aisle in the video stores (not that I have one, I was just browsing.) At least Gamecube has lately tended to get lots of titles that are on other systems. I can see them improving in their next system release. |
Back to my point, I've never considered realism or "maturity" (A code word for gore, violence, and sexual themes) a factor in a game's awesomeness. In fact, if you're paying so much attention to that, it's necessarily going to distract from the goal of designing a good game. For all the early controversy over Mortal Kombat on the SNES not having blood, and gore in the VG community at large, I still think MK sucks, and I still think a lot of "mature" games suck nowadays. I've played all three and I don't see any reason to favor one system that much over the other.

.................Makes no sense. |
I recommend you delete your post and leave. Forever. And let me guess, you got one of those Spongebob Squarepants watches, and it tells you by satellite when Burger King is open or closed? wtf

I was thinking the other day that in essence a binary file is just a really big number. Take Zelda 3 for instance. It consists of #20000 bytes i.e. 1 megabyte. A file that is 10 bytes long would have 256^10 possible configurations, since each byte can assume 256 values. So then what are the odds of getting a particular game using a random number generator? Assuming ideal randomness, Zelda 3 is 1 file out of approximately (2.5963705678310007761265964957269 x 10^157826)^262144 files. |
 Just think how vast that number is. This does not take into account the fact that there could be equivalent compilations of the game, which would make this significantly lower, and there is also empty space in the game, which is useless data. Still I hope you now realize just how unique a game can be.

With your screen name and the nature of this thread I can't help but chuckle a little. *pictures someone wiring an Alarm clock to output to a microwave.* |

True. But how cool would it be if you just ran out a random number of this sort and it ended up being a real cool game somehow (without glitches lol)? |
Shitty facsimiles don't count, but yeah I thought of that. Every possible romhack is a close approximation to the original game, though numerically it is likely to be quite distant.

Lol you actually reminded me of something else I was thinking about. What if doctors attempted to figure out the way living humans worked in much the same way a rom corruptor cuts up a rom. *slices off an arm* "Well what does this do?" *Stabs out a spleen* "Well the patient crashed, bring in a fresh patient." |

Nintendo could have a problem if it continues to have less than its fair share of third party developers. Sega had a hell of time with the Master System and Nintendo's exclusive licensing policies. I heard that Sega had to make almost 50 of its own titles for the Master System. Maybe more... I'm sure a lot of those were arcade ports of its older games though. |
