There are so many great threads here with so much insight about the history of our beloved Obey that it needs to be turned into an article and shared across the Internets.... Hmmmmm *gears spinning*

Have we truly degraded that far as a society?

Yep!  95% of voters fall into three categories: left, right, and don't give a shit.  Those on the left think everything done by Obama is awesome and beyond reproach, and those on the right think everything he does is wrong no matter what.  It's sad.

Actually, only folks in the middle think Obama (or Clinton before him) were OK. Folks who are actually LEFT, like me, see these horrible Democrats as slightly less offensive versions of an average Republican politician.

Clinton and Obama did many things that a true leftie would find reprehensible: dismantling social services (I want to increase social services), using military force, supporting brutal regimes worldwide, putting interests of corporations first (trade agreements), etc. etc. etc.

So, life is peachy.   

Um, you forget we live in the Empire. We wouldn't be the empire if we didn't do

Yeah, not even the left likes Obama.  That's how he got re-elected.

I think Mitt is how he got re-elected.

I think he's the best president since Clinton.  I don't agree with everything he's done or is doing, but the only alternative on the ballot was diametrically opposed to almost all of my views.

International policy speaking Obama is Bush the third.

Nationally speaking, his policies are more social conscious but very short term. Which is what all politicians can think in terms off anyways.

Perry = Sock puppet /Stereotypical Southern Business Man

Obama = Sock Puppet


the entire political class of this country is out of touch and laughable at best, the worst part is that people are loosing "faith" in them and that leads to really crappy things in the long run.

We live in Texas and can feel and see the effects of Perry and his decision, some good, some bad, some meh. 

All politicians should be Eunuchs, that way only those THAT REALLY want to make a positive difference would apply for the job.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Which PC Engine song do you have stuck in your head?]

Two Cadash songs, the first town song and the second dungeon song.  Can't GET THEM OUT! and I'm okay with this.

I recently played the arcade version of Cadash for the first time in years, I have to say the PCE version is quite fantastic in comparison.


Besides those two songs, I have the Cielom track from WoT playing as well.

Ask your self if you really want to do art. Otherwise it will become a chore and you won't enjoy the learning process.

Awesome! You can do eet!

Tatsu, were u able to play the games without registering?

[Off-Topic / The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread]

Awesome. Gonna have to check it out.

[Off-Topic / The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread]

I will never be fortunate enough to own one of those, so I settled for these.
Almost a fair comparison.

The colors on the Monster Party game label always stood out, I've never actually played the game. Is it any good?

[General Gaming / Re: Shovel Knight, a sweet new retro game]

Is there going to be a version of the game in other consoles?

I can see why they would go for that color palette, makes it easier and quicker to turn around and calls the NES nostalgia button.

[Off-Topic / Re: What are YOU watching on YouTube.com?]

Such big metallic flakes and so glossy..... it's like a bass boat.

BAM!

[Off-Topic / The “What-Did-You-Buy-Today?” Thread]

So here is a little chestnut.

I got a gift card for $100 for my birthday last month to use on Amazon.

I attempted recently to use said gift card for the $150 used copy of Coryoon.

I get a reply a day later saying out of stock and that my order waas canceled.


Ok no biggie. I order the $170 from lucky star

A fay later same thing haplenes. I ask that they replace with the OTHER posting they have thats $12 dollars more

That listing gets removed and no dice

I then think okay 3rd times tge charme. And I order the $186 listing

Well today that too gets canceled as they do not have it in stock

WTF japan amazon sellers?!?!?!

I dont even want to teyr

That's lame.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What PC-Engine Stuff did you get today?]

I went shopping in Sendai area (I ordered Star Parodier for this week's GOTW)


And I got a pc engine duo R for 100$ at my local video game store. It was my lucky pc engine week.

[Off-Topic / PCE - Turbo 4 Koma - Dat PC EngineFX forums comic strip]

If you don't know a 4 Koma is: "The Japanese equivalent of the American newspaper comic strip - a four-panel vertical strip with a complete story including a punchline (which may or may not be continued in subsequent 4-koma strips)."

with that in mind I present to you a forum wide activity.


Create a 4 Koma script for any of your favorite PCE/TG characters and or games. Enter as many times as you want.

Once we have a good chunk of content for inspiration, forums artists are encouraged to take their favorite 4-koma and post it up.

Could be the start of a fun project that's not too complicated.


I'm a fan of Omake Theater


and some of the Bravoman 4-Komas





What do you think?

[Turbo Memoirs / Re: PC Engine Promo Photograph (circa 1987) re-creation]

Every time I see this thread in the unread list, my eyes read it as "PC Engine Porno Photograph".  Someone should make that a real thread.

Eeeek

that could go either way, like REALLY REALLY cool and OMG WTF

[General Gaming / Re: Favorite shooter stage]

I also love constant dodging in shooters. In particular, scenes like the high speed tunnel in Aeroblasters and the similar stage in Gradius II.

YES!

[Off-Topic / Re: World Cup]

Get out to a baseball game and stop embarrassing yourselves.

No thanks. Baseball is great... to play. Watching it however, is a shade less amusing than observing ants carry sugar granules back to the colony. 

Lmao.

I like watching games at a stadium, other wise it's a total bore.

The U.S game was phenomenal. I've been catching free streaming of the games on the Spanish network Univision. They have a nice HD feed and the commentators are a riot to listen to.

Goooooooooaaaal

[Off-Topic / World Cup]

Anyone watching this???? 

[General Gaming / Re: Favorite shooter stage]

sooooo many, can't decide

surely there are stages that come to mind first, more than others.

You guys rock! Thank you all!

[General Gaming / Re: Favorite shooter stage]

I think you should post a pic of your fav stage as well


Pictur is worth a thousand words and all

That would be pretty rocking

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: Why did the SuperGrafx fail so miserably?]

I don't think that CD games were needed. It could toss around so much that it was more in the class of arcade hardware or the X68000. SGX HuCards could have featured more parallax than any MD or SFC game or more sprites than any console game at the time did, without any flicker. Think about the kind of shooters we could have got and if developers really needed two tile layers to make platformers, then we could have seen way more than thr PCE received.

Take any intense PCE HuCard and imagine it with twice the sprites and an extra layer of background or what games would look like in 512 pixel wide resolution.

Would be cool seeing a mock up of something like this.

[General Gaming / Re: Favorite shooter stage]

Awesome! Thanks guys!

[General Gaming / Favorite shooter stage]

Doing a little bit informal research here. 

Doesn't matter the console; what is/are your favorite stage(s) for your favorite shooters.

[General Gaming / Re: Dat E3 thread]

The only thing that interested me is Sony's announcement of the Vita TV coming to the US.  More Ys and Lego games for me!

I caught a quick glimpse, but didn't read the news about it. Will have to take a look.
