A returning user? Cool. It seems to me that we've been having quite a few people returning recently. |

Have you talked to your parents about splitting the bill? If so, what did they say? |

I love how the word "satire" rarely seems to pop up in discussions about this game. |

Yes, and this game happens to be a perfect example of it. |

If this is only happening to your SNES games, then I think that the patch was meant for a headerless ROM and your ROM is headered, or vice versa. You should probably try to find something that allows you to add or remove headers (SNESTool probably has this functionality) and see if the patch in question works. |

It's a satire of how voters think that the president can do anything or American patriotic fervor or something like that. |

I would say "No, you're the one who doesn't know what satire means," but I just did.
Anyways, since I doubt were going to ever come to an agreement on the definition of satire by debating in this fashion, we might as well consult The Infallible Dictionary.Com: Posted by Dictionary.com It's simple, really. The game uses exaggeration to ridicule the folly of American Patriotic Fervor™. I can't imagine how this game can not be considered satirical. |

Posted by Xeruss Go ahead. The rules are more like guidelines anyway. |

I see three main problems with this: latency, bandwidth, server maintenance. The first will, strictly speaking, can only be minimalized, not eliminated (unless someone is able to break the light barrier). The latter two problems can theoretically be solved, but would require a constant source of money to do so.
So yeah. Don't expect this to replace traditional game distribution methods. Posted by Godot Posted by Trax Ugly video compression, so don't expect Crysis to look as good as it would running on a normal PC. Oh, and I think you screwed up in your conversion from kilobytes to megabytes. |

That's not what I meant. What I meant was that you multiplied when you should have divided. |

*Checks*
...oh wait. It's the stupid international comma/period numbering inconsistency thing again. *Grumbles* |

Talk about derailing the series. I really hope that Nintendo gets back on track with the sequel, or even better, decides not to release this trainwreck of an idea. Seriously. I'm afreight that Nintendo's only (and admittedly loco) motive behind this game is to make their hardcore fans steam in anger.
... Train puns aside, this looks like it could be pretty fun twist, and it's one step closer to the "steampunk" Zelda "everyone" claims to want. |

The problem with your calculations is that you're assuming that each frame is compressed independent of each other. Consecutive frames in videos tend to share quite a bit of data, thus increasing the compression ratio. |

I wouldn't say those services are exactly the same as this. Those actually sent the game to the console (like XBLA), while this one only sends the video. Similar concepts, yes, but entirely different implementations. |

I doubt that this will be as confusing as everybody thinks it is, but it definitely looks like it's a step above standard RTSes in terms of the needed brainpower.
Also, I initially misread the topic title as "Archon," which is a completely different strategy game. |

The demo is now available from his site.
EDIT: Holy heck Tetrid is hard. |
