Vootie. | Community section is for stupid people with bad dental hygiene | Okay, I'll say it. I have absolutely no knowledge whatsoever of any of these net terms. What exactly is a COMMUNITY SECTION? |
It's a melodramatic way to say that we'll be putting up message boards. | PCM really is | PCM is Pulse Code Modulation. It is NOT created through the PSX'sbuilt-in chip. Rather, it's one of the industry standards for creationof digital audio. In fact, "redbook" audio IS uncompressed PCM audiorecorded at 44.1 KHz (i.e., Wipeout XL). Another type of audio (whatyou were talking about), often called "orangebook," is compressed audiostreamed off of the CD by the PSX's processor (FF Tactics, Wild Arms,Xenogears). It is also PCM. Both red- and orangebook allow forCD-quality digital sound (voices, whatever). The last type of music issimply general midi limited by the PSX's sound RAM (Final Fantasy 7,8). This severely limited (but space-friendly) format sounds pretty badunless you have a good composer/sequencer. Thank goodness for NobuoUematsu. - Edge |
Okay. I screwed up. I was wrong. There you go. | The lonely Dragon Quest letter | In my opinion, DQM is the best. In fact, I don't even know what is happening and I have invested more time in it than any other DQs I have ever played. However, DQs' battles can be boring at times; but a menu-driven Dragon Ball: Final Bout type battle system for DQ would definitely make it more exciting (heh, imagine the hero jumping up and slashing a Hagure Slime in PS-Y land). Oh, one more thing. Terra does not have dirty legs, she's wearing something that is laced. Also, is Jade Cocoon similar to DQM? |
I'm bummed. Only one DQ letter came in. That is depressing. So much so that I sliced exactly ten gashes into my left forearm, commemorating each of the ten DQ games (1-7, Monsters, and the two Remixes for SFC). Only blood can solve this tragedy of apathy. Yeah, DQ battles tend to be dry, visually, but changing the DQ battle style is a worrisome prospect to me. Tradition is a hallmark of the series, and messing with the battle system seems like it'd take too much away from the tradition for my tastes. Maybe I'm just an old fogey. I haven't played JC, so I can't accurately compare it to DQM. If I can weasel a demo copy out of AV, I'll get back to you. | Oy | Allan, Square has ruined my life. Maybe, just maybe, I once could have torn myselfaway from the RPG world to pursue relationships and get a real boyfriend.But no, Square just HAD to release new FMV in FFVI, and they just HAD toput Edgar in it. Now I'll never want another man again. I'm doomed to dwellalone, without happiness or romance or the innumerable other things a videogame cartridge can't provide. The only light in my miserable existence willbe Edgar-sama's charming witticisms and stunning good looks. On another note, did you know that SNES games get really warm when they'resnuggled in between two large, warm, round... never mind. B |
Anyone else feel faintly ill? | Dreaming | Well, let's play. Most videogamers just love some good ol'fashioned anime... subbed. Wouldn't it be really cool to leave thosecool, character fitting, darned cute voices in there for the effect, andthen read along. Just like your fave flick! And if you had to listen tosomeone read a script for the first time in order to better understand;you would just select it from the options menu, 'cause damnit, you'replaying on your new DVD format PSX2. Happiness, nash |
That's an interesting pipe dream. And hey, let's work with it. We have sub *and* dub on the DVD-based games, all on the PSX2. You can easily afford the PSX2's eight hundred dollar price tag, however, because of all the cash you scored by selling heroin to seven year olds behind the piss-stained basketball court near their bullet-scored school, which they cut most of the time so they can shoot up in the privacy of their trailer park homes. But hey, you've got a PSX2, and you've got subtitled anime. What else matters, right? | The real deal with RE | Uh, am I the only person who understands the deal with RE's voiceacting? It's like a really B horror movie. Watch some bad horror moviesfrom a while ago; the voice acting is so bad. "I hope this isnot....CHRIS'S blood!" sets the mood perfectly. What's sad is thatSilent Hill could have had so much better, if they had a competentCybill. Or Castlevania : Symphony of the Night. That was one hell of agame, with no need for spoken lines. I literally fell off my couchlaughing at the first line - "Die monster" |
Eh... I don't think Capcom's clever enough to pull that off. Hell, look at the voices for Mega Man 8. Better yet, slice out your own intestines instead. Capcom's got a truly horrible track record for voice acting in its games, and I really don't think they're clever and attentive enough to mock B horror movie acting with RE. I think the voice acting just plain sucked. | A low blow from the Lord of the Dance | Dear Most Fiendish of Agents, I have your grandmother and your most favorite oven mitt. If u don't print this letter, say buh bye to both of them. Prepare to recieve more letters to negociate my terms. - Michal Flatley |
You worthless son of a bitch. You mindless, talentless, pirate shirt-sporting, butt-waving, shoe-stomping stain of a man. You threaten my family, I get annoyed. You steal my oven mitt, well, that's where I draw the line. I can't make my shortbread cookies without that mitt. I can't finish baking that pie for the old folks' home. You've ruined the lives of countless millions by your sick and selfish action, much like you do each time someone buys a ticket for Lord of the Dance. Your arrogance and cruelty know no bounds, and I will put a stop to you, Flatley. I kill you. I kill you bad. I kill you until the cows come home. And then I kill the cows.
Closing comments Pip pip. Closing time at the meat shop, everyone. Pull off your trousers and join in the fun or I'll crack open your skull Pez dispenser. ... is it just me, or are Pez dispensers vastly cooler than the Pez candy themselves? Does anyone ever actually say "Man, this cocaine is sweet stuff, but the real fix is PEZ, man!" Of course not. Because cocaine is the best thing in the whole world, baby. Anyone that says otherwise is a nostril virgin, and needs to be instructed. - The Double Agent | | | |
