God I hope so!

Man, the game against New Mexico State was incredible today. Attendance for the opening home game is the highest in Cal history. Our running game completely dominated the offense, and it's such an awesome experience for my first live football game. But Cal hasn't played a decent team yet, so I'm ...

The thing I found helpful when determing which console to buy is to look at the games that are exclusively on that system, and see which system has the exclusive games that you want to play. I decided to buy an Xbox because I liked the exclusive games such as Halo, Ninja Gaiden, Fable, Project ...

Well, I don't know that much about college football, but this year Cal (or U.C. Berkeley if you don't know it, which is by the way the school I'm attending right now) did well on their first game: 56-14 against Air Force. Cal's running game exploded against Air Force, so hopefully they can repeat it ...

I am new to the whole Linux scene, but I am curious and want to try Linux for myself. After doing some research, I chose Gentoo as my distribution. I already have WinXP Professional installed on my harddrive, and I still need it to play certain games. So I was wondering what I would need to do to ...

Fire and Rain - James Taylor

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Susanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and i wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to

I've seen fire and i've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that i thought would ...

Hi, I want to start playing Dungeons and Dragons with a group of people in my college. We are all new to D&D, but all of us have played 2nd edition games like the BG series and Icewind Dale. I was just wondering which edition is more newbie-friendly.

If you are one of those gamers who get very frustrated at extremely difficult games, then maybe you shouldn't pick up Ninja Gaiden, because it will literally hand your butt back to you on a platter. The game is that hard. Heck, if you are not careful, even normal grunts can kill you very easily, not ...

Thanks for the replies guys. I'll be sure to check the places you have mentioned.

That's the first place I've tried. But the problem is, the prices go up ridiculously high on eBay. For example, I saw Chrono Trigger on eBay sell for $50+. There is no way I am going to pay that much for a SNES game.

I know I can find these games and play them on an emulator, but it's only legal if I actually own those cartridges. But since I have lost them, I cannot legally play those games using an emulator. And besides, I would like to have the actual cartridges, because the TV has better picture quality than ...

Alas, after unpacking in my new apartment, I've discovered to my horrors that all of my SNES games were missing. It's like a part of my childhood had been stolen. So now I am in need of some SNES games, used or new I don't care as long as they work. If anyone has any of the following games, please ...

I just bought this game today, and I must say that it is the best movie-based game I've ever played. This definitely shows that you can make an excellent game based on a movie's IP. First off, the presentation is very good. The graphics are the best I've seen on the Xbox, especially with the good ...

It's funny how when I came home after watching Fahrenheit 9/11, the first site I visited was SYM, and this thread caught my eye.

Personally, I don't really care if Michael Moore is being biased or not, because let's face it, this movie will not change any opinions. I am still going to believe that ...

@Aegis:

Super Smash Brothers for N64.

If you play through everything again, I'd recommend getting the mod called BG1 Tutu. Basically, it converts BG1/ToTSC contents and lets you play them using the BG2 engine, which is capable of higher resolutions and includes gameplay enhancements. The mod is still considered a beta release, so there ...

Yeah, the way to do that has changed in 1.10.

To do the 8 player trick, type in "/players 8" without the quotation marks. And you should be able to see something like "players set to 8" or something similar to that.

I post up this song's lyrics because it's so representative of what I am feeling right now.

Hey Jude - The Beatles

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey, Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to ...

Seriously, I hope Ion Storm does not mess up Thief 3, but since they are still using the engine from Invisible War, I believe we will still see the same problems: ridiculously small levels, long-load times, crappy textures, non-swimmbable water, no support for EAX or surround sound.

Thanks, Xandax, for the reply. I fixed the problem.
