Need your honest answer fellow members
Recently my daughter turned 15 and wanted to celebrate her Birthday at a restaurant with 10 of her friends which I did not mind. And I agreed to do this. Two days before the party my wife says "We are going to the restaurant at this time, to drop her off."
I said "What do you mean drop her off" she said," Yes, we are dropping her off, because she does not want us there, and if we show up, I will be hijacking her party and she will not be happy."
I said "She is 15 and still a child she does not have the right to dictate if her parents are going to be there or not" my wife did not agree and still does not agree. I offered a compromise that we will stay at the restaurant but will sit at a separate table. Still not good enough for my wife...
On the day of the party I told my wife that we are going and staying there at the restaurant but at a separate table. My wife was not happy with this at all, and my daughter was not happy with the arrangement.  Before the party my sister calls me and says she is coming over to celebrate my daughter's Birthday, and I said great because she is family. And it was very considerate of her because she lives at least 1hr30 min away and had to drive through Rush hour traffic.
Well this started another argument with my wife and said I should have asked her first and to call her and tell her not to come. I told my wife no, she is family and wants to be with us to celebrate our daughter's birthday, and she is letting our son who is in college stay with her for $100 a month which includes everything. My wife insisted to call her and tell her not to come. I never did call my sister and welcomed her with open arms. Later after the party my wife tells me I hijacked her party and she did not have a good time, even though it seemed she was enjoying her party and continues to blame me for hijacking the party.
My question to everyone here:
Who is right in this scenario, my wife or me (The Dad) should I have given in, or did I do the right thing?

The exhibit covers 40 years with 20 machines. "I left out a machine that personally pained me to leave out," he says. "The Turbografx 16, a 16 bit machine
Here is the full article
http://www.pbpulse.com/news/entertainment/arts-theater/are-video-games-art/nTT5f/

That someone is Chris Melissinos, formerly the chief gaming officer at Sun Microsystems for 15 years, currently the vice president of corporate marketing at Verisign, which is quite a resume for someone who's only 42. He is the curator of "The Art of Video Games," now at the Boca Raton Museum of Art, which is the first museum to show the exhibit since its premiere at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C.

Why would he leave it out. I do not get it. It is suppose to be a museum.

Off-Topic / Need Help CPU VIRUS!!
12/13/2012, 05:21 PM
My CPU got a virus the HeurEngine.ZeroDayThreat I was running Microsoft security essentials but noticed cpu was super slow. So I uninstalled Security essentials and installed PC tools Doctor and it located the virus. But as soon as it found the CPU froze and crashed (Blue Screen). I uninstalled PC Tools and ran Malwarebytes the free version and it is not locating anything. I am about to try running CCleaner and we will see what happens. If all else fails I will just redownload the operating system.

Anyone know how to get rid of this virus?

General Gaming / Nintendo Zapper
06/14/2012, 03:08 AM
So recently I hooked up my Nintendo to my plasma and put the game Duck Hunt. Now I am assuming the Zapper still works because I hardly ever ever used it. So started up the game saw the ducks flying around tried to shoot them but they just would not die. Die Ducks Die, ](*,) stop laughing at me dog, now I remember why I would try to shoot the dog. Anyways I heard the shot but no matter how close or far I got to the TV the ducks would not die. Is it because there is something wrong with the Zapper or is it the Type of TV that I am using? Or maybe it is just the Pins in the Nintendo System?  :-k

General Gaming / Nintendo Zelda
06/13/2012, 01:24 AM
I hope this thread can go here.

I went to a Pawn shop and saw the Gold Zelda game I asked them how much they wanted for it they said USD50.00 bucks. The game itself was in terrible shape it had black scrapes all over it no manual or box I was not even sure if it worked. I told them that was outrageous, and of course the got  :evil: and said that is what they sell for on ebay. They even tried to stop me and bet me 50.00 that they can prove it to me. I just walked away laughing .
#47
OK, so what is the deal, I have noticed through pics many TG16 owners are using standard TV's to hook up there system,why? Are they trying to keep the whole feeling of old school gaming? I thought using an HDTV would probably give you a better picture. Should I buy a older TV to hook up my games.
