There is no such thing as a “secure” lock. All a lock ever does and has ever done is keep honest people honest. Someone who really wants into your house will find away.

if we’re being that pedantic, then yeah you’re probably right in that it could handle rendering without displaying. That seems like a moot point though, when the whole point of the exercise was to draw the consoles like the way things look to the player when playing those consoles. I highly doubt when the word…

For me it probably would’ve been Jurassic Park on PC. DOOM was no problem, but for some reason I could never get too far in JP. I should see if I can find that again and play it through.

A lot of the physics bugs are results of the fairly accurately-reproduced physics engine — the classic sonic games had a number of physics quirks that could result in you getting shifted through walls, under stuff, or dying unexpectedly. It was generally pretty rare but could certainly happen. CW’s port was designed…

would it be possible to render the image using CPU/RAM, chunk it out into sprites/tiles, send the result sprites/tiles to the image processor to load into its own memory, then simply instruct it to arrange them into a grid on-screen? It seems like it’d be stupidly inefficient but I have to imagine that’s how games…

technically the image in the article uses five colors — the background has to be represented by a color as well, even if that color is transparent.

the background color (white or transparent) has to use one of the color slots, so it’s still five.

wasn’t there when i was poking around for sonic mania.

I absolutely love the genesis/CD era Sonic games. Even some of the later ones, but primarily the classics. The momentum-based gameplay, especially coupled with the exploration of the more developed titles, is awesomely fun. I always enjoyed them more than most other platformers, even Mario games. I still go back and…

Just sayin’, you may’ve put it in the ‘not so great’ section, but that amber-lit keyboard looks absolutely boss in the dark. That photo alone made me want to buy this keyboard.

huh. to be totally honest, I’ve not once ever actually paid attention to my score while playing. =x

Oh yeah, seeing normies get all self-righteous over some CG anime tiddies is always thoroughly entertaining.

Oh man, I love the comments/replies on senran kagura (et al) posts.

amazing. I’ve played both games and never knew inking the walls doesn’t count. It’d be nice if the game would actually tell you this.

yay! So I, who live in Bumfuck, Kentucky, have zero chance.

Yes. They’re using AB testing to probe how much players are willing to pay on average. They were only one step short of avoiding ill press — planning in advance to set the lowest price after the test and refund the difference to all users who purchased it at the higher price points. They did not do this, instead…

Nay, concern thyself not for my loneliness, for there are many comrades to be found within the halls of depravity. Likewise, I have only seen the top, never occupied it. I have merely seen for myself just how deep the rabbit hole goes — even I am but a meager denizen in this dark place, a vanilla fan among true…

I am visiting from the Land Of 682GB Of Hentai (actual figure) and I can say — with authority — that wincest is slamming the needle *hard* into the ‘tame’ side of the spectrum. I am so far gone into the realm of vile degeneracy that seeing ‘step-incest’ associated with ‘crazy shit’ garners naught but a wry chuckle.

When the article stated he had a foot fetish, I was just like “what, is that it?”
