LOL 1 MONTH BUMP
I wanted to say that I just beat Mission 7 on Very Hard today, the last story mission I hadn't beaten on that level. Surprisingly it was no harder than doing the level on Hard. Has anyone else progressed at all since last month? 23

Stupidly long? Look no further than Radiant Silvergun. Some of those things are 20 minutes+ to beat!
Also trying do win the Deathborn race in F-Zero GX is next to impossible. EDIT: Hey, I have 1111 posts! 24

That isn't that difficult... just insanely time consuming.
Metroid Prime FTW! I finished that a month or so ago, it's been awaiting a display case because I'd like it to be semi-permanent. It took about three months to make, doing a couple parts a night. It's about 15 inches tall and has over 320 parts! Had to use the GTM uploader, Photobucket was being an ass PS: Joeblo, could you upload those templates again? I might take a crack at them later. 25

You got a lot of sparks off the second to last hit on Sagot. I bet that looked really cool in real life.

It's a glitch in the program's formula for finding excitement. I may be wrong about this, but I'm going to guess since it spends so much time upside down there is more "air time" than normal rightside up riding. This glitches out the calculator.

Preferably 4 or 8 gb of it, 3 would require you to mix and match cards. DDR2 RAM works better if all cards are the same.

YOu're definitely overheating if it takes longer to shut down the longer its off. Try putting a fam right next to the computer, see if it takes longer to shut down. If it does, then you need more fans in your case. Don't go for liquid cooling unless you have like, four video cards, it costs about 700 bucks.

You only ever need 1 TB of drive. Get the 1st one, i7 is better than Phenom II, I believe. (Could someone confirm this) Other than that I think 1 and 3 are identical. Don't get 2, it has shoddy quality control. If I were you though, I'd build my own PC.

So far its 4-9 in favor of the Cyborg. Cast your votes quick, the sale on the G-15 ends tonight so I'll be leaving in a few hours to go get one or the other of these.
JD is right, it lets you use the keyboard at night. 34

Besides, I would hope not to spend 800 dollars on this.

Hypno teeth are fine, they do almost as much damage and are way more durable.

I don't have any pictures of this, but one time I was fighting Grog the Vengeful, broke his shell off, and we both got flung halfway through the wall of the combat zone. The weird part? His chassis was intersecting mine.

I think if they had any more cameo characters, they'd probably be from Sega because Sega mainly develops for Nintendo.
A playable Ridley would be awesome. I know he's mainly a boss, but Bowser and Ganondorf are playable. Why not? Besides, Metroid is one of Nintendo's flagship series, it needs more than one character. 38

I think that happens because the hovercraft engine gets confused and thinks your spinner is the ground, and starts spazzing out trying to hover away from something attached to it. It's like dangling a carrot in front of a horse. Neither work in real life.

Off-Topic Discussion / Dumb keyboard question« on: July 16, 2010, 08:31:22 AM »
My keyboard is a piece of junk. Looking to replace it, I've found these two keyboards, and am trying to decide which one to replace it with.
First option is the Saitek Cyborg v7 ![]() This one has a lot of macro keys, which I could probably find a use for, metal plated cursor, WASD, and space bar, and its backlit. You can change the backlighting color, and assign separate colors to different parts of the keyboard. What you can't see it that it also has a built in USB port, as well as headphone and mic plugs that run inside a very thick cord, which fans out into a few different plugs at its end. Unfortunately, you can't create macros on the fly, you have to use Saitek's really confusing software to do it ahead of time. I've bought other stuff by Saitek, I really like their looks and build quality, so I'm really tempted to buy this keyboard. Looking at Amazon for this keyboard, I can get one shipped from within my state for $65 The G-15 ![]() Well, this keyboard is also a good option. It has 6 macro buttons instead of the Cyborg's 12, and macros can be recorded on the fly. It has backlighting too, but only in burnt orange (ugh.) Built quality is the same as the Cyborg, from what I've read. It has a function to kill the Windows key when you're playing a game. but I've never really had an issue with that. It also has two USB ports on the back, but they're the obsolete 1.1 type and are low powered, making them not as useful. The big draw on this one is the screen, though I honestly can't think of what I'd do with it besides display system info, processor temp, etc. It seems like it would be useless to display in game information, you're looking at your screen, not your keyboard. I can get it cheaper than the Cyborg: I can get it for $50 on sale at Best Buy. THIS ENDS SATURDAY NIGHT. I would like to get the Cyborg, but the macro keys needing software kind of puts me off. The G-15 doesn't need software to do that. The USB on the Cyborg is also a benefit, the G-15 doesn't really do this with its low power ports that don't seem good for plugging in memory. Both are backlit, but I don't really like the G-15's orange. It's a minor issue, but pretty much every piece of lighting on my computer is either blue or red. Mostly blue. The screen on the G-15 is kind of a plus, I could use it to display system info instead of an on-screen display, but I can't think of any other use for it. The Cyborg simply doesn't have that. The touch panel of the Cyborg is nice, but its a fingerprint magnet. I don't play any MMOs, which seems to be what the G-15 is designed for. I mainly play strategy and simulator games. The Cyborg on the other hand, seems to be made for FPS games, of which I have exactly none (although Half Life 2 is really tempting to buy.) What do you guys think I should do? 40
