I think kill knows who's banned and for how long. Jonzu's being a Drama Queen.
Again.
Tell me about it. And if he's got me facepalming at him for it, that's saying something.

Never mind
Sometime later tonight you will get the joke I tried to make.
Actually...the whole "Aiming Coasters" part-
-I actually did create some RCT3 Death Parks back in the day >=D
1: Set swing ride on testing
2: Send rollercoaster into it
3: ???
4: HOMERUN!!!
I was always more a fun of creating elaborate train rides which dropped into pits of fire >=D

Just the F word that isn't allowed on GTM.
And I actually believe Jonzu here. I don't think Jonzu was multi accounting here.
Aye. Although it does sound a little like a Troll Name, if I can be honest.

permabanned for multiaccounting he says now
apparently it's a new one
He got permabanned? I knew he'd been banned for his tomfoolery whilst I was away, but I hadn't known that.

This might just be me, but I always thought the Gamecube was a brilliant, yet underrated system.

They're not that bad from what I've seen.
I can help you If you get it :)
Sounds like a plan- maybe I'll consider it once I get my new compy installed =D

I know GF93 really wants to play TF2 :P
Pity about the fanbase, though =P

We really don't. I don't like the idea of video games being used as technological showcases, developing companies going "look what we've done with state-of-the-art computers". If they designed videogames with the sort of computers ordinary people play them on, then maybe they'd actually run properly.
Classic videogames, in my mind, are always going to be better than modern titles, things like Crysis, things like Counter Strike. They actually make you feel happy. The graphics were fun, the soundtracks were usually fun, the levels were fun...I would go so far as to say there's too MUCH realism in video games, we need that almost cartoon-like suspension of disbelief that allows video games to take you to whatever place they want, and put a smile on your face when you get there.
Definitely agree with the bit on graphics, particularly the "Running Properly" part- if you haven't got the latest one, you're a bit snookered, so to speak.
And I fully agree here, too- there's a reason why I've kept my old consoles, and downloaded some of the old titles on my Wii Virtual Console (There's even a few Commodore 64 titles in there) =D
The only video game I've ever traded in is Guitar Hero IV, because it wouldn't run properly on my PS2 for some reason. But I can have a whole lot more fun with my PsOne games, crazy stuff like Crash Bandicoot 2, Spyro 3, sometimes Cool Boarders 2 as well. But, unfortunately, as appears the way with most things in life, video games are becoming more about image and distractions than actually having fun and doing things well.
I remember having that problem with another PS2 title, once. And yes, that is an unfortunate thing to consider, really. With most modern games, it's about graphics and how much crap you can sneak past the censors.

You have to define what makes a video game "good", and what may be one person's console hell might be another's gaming salvation. For example, I think Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is an apalling game (I have NEVER liked FPS), but Spyro 3: Year Of The Dragon (For the Playstation ONE) is one of my all-time top five video games on any platform. I would gladly forego the aesthetic complexity in favour of a game that is not only a blast to play, but also makes you happy.
Exactly- I'd much rather have a game that was visually-lacking but great fun to play, rather than one that looks stunning, but plays like crap.
Unfortunately, the majority of people who buy these sort of games are daft kids who are willing to believe all the hype, buy into any franchise that goes "LOOK AT THE SHINY SHINY" long enough, and guilt-trip their parents into getting it for them. Which completely defeats the purpose of age ratings, I was in Game in Kirkcaldy before it closed, and there was a kid in front of me who was with his mum, and she was buying a copy of Grand Theft Auto IV. He was five years old.
That's the aggrovating thing about gamers these days- they judge on graphics and nothing else. Tieing with that though, is these kids who make their parents buy them these 18-rated titles without question. Five years old? Really?
(At that age, the most mature thing I'd played was Altered Beast on the Mega Drive =P)
I couldn't give any less of a <expletive> about graphics, to be honest. Just so long as I can distinguish between things properly, then I don't care how many million polygons have been rendered with it. Asteroids is a better game than Call Of Duty.
When I was five, the most violent video game I had was Frogger on the PsOne. He gets hit by a truck, and...that's about it. The music for World 6 was amazing, though. =D
Aye. I see graphics as a nice touch, but they don't make a game- we don't really need 1 billion terraflopping polygons for a door handle as a game's most major selling point. And yes, back in the era of the old classics- I still have my old Megadrive, I just need to find the cable for the visuals. Once I've done that and installed it again though, I might start looking around for more of the old classics =P

Wii sucks because it has too many third party developers sticking crappy mini-game collections on it.
Wouldn't say that that makes the system itself sucks- more the fault of the cretins who churn out those "games" with no time or effort, hoping to make money off idiots who mistake them for good titles.

I find this funny, I've beaten MP3 5 or 6 times, yet I've yet to beat MP2 once.
Don't blame you- doesn't help that MP2 is generally considered to be the hardest one of the three by far.
