Can anyone recommend me a setup for best strafes?

Malen how do you Strafe like on SJ etc.?

Anyone know why The Gravemind from Halo 2 said "I am a monument to all your sins"?
I know the answer, but i'm curious as to if anyone else heard as to why, before i continue further.

Please enlighten us anon

The Flood is the result of the mistakes of the Forerunners, and humanity are the Forerunner's progeny so humans = Forerunners = humans made The Flood

>>1248
Bill gates on Halo: Combat evolved "Halo is the future"
"You are the child of my makers, you ARE Forerunner"- 343 guilty spark.
In a halo 2 storyboard, the arbiter discovers a forerunner coffin. He opens it up, and inside is a skeleton of a regular human being.
Halo legends is a canon anthology series, and in one episode, a sort of prelude to Halo 3 ODST. In this episode, on a far away planet, ruins where discovered. It's freaking scientists out because thd ruins had distinct Indian, Japanese, and Greco-Roman aesthetic elements, (and many more) which asks the question, who the fuck made it?
It was implied this would be one of many keys planted that would lead to more halo media and a great secret being unlocked, that is before bungie left and 343 industries fucked everything up.
In short, in our very own timeline, after endless wars humanity fled to the stars, unlocking the secrets of the human body via the super soldier program, humanity both evolved naturally, and genetically engineered themselves to adapt to whatever planets they found, becoming aliens you see in game. Eventually one of them ascended, becoming god itself. (the great sin) Something happened along the way to piss it off, so it became the flood to wipe away it's mistake. The forerunners captured all species DNA to recreate everything incase something happened, and it did, leading to the halo array to wipe all traces of the flood from the galaxy. This is an endless cycle happening over and over, leading to the halo games.

Why was the flood obsessed with finding earth? To finally end the cycle once and for all.
Why does the covenant have catholic flavorings to their behaviour and relgion? Because they carry the memories of humanity in a fucked up way, a dark reflection. If they where aliens, why wouldn't they be more.... Alien?

>>1237
And for the record, I do not want to pre-order the game, I'm just angry that people are going to no doubt make gaming unaffordable because they refuse or cannot see the consequences of buying games at that high a price, and what that will do for the video game market moving forward...or they just don't care and will call the average consumer "broke" while flaunting extremely expensive apparel while going up to pay for a 90 USD game that is not worth that much money if you just bought Burnout Paradise or any of the Forza open world games on sale for dirt cheap.

>>1217
It's funny because it's pretty much a walking simulator but the writing is so damn good.

>>1239
I made it to chapter three, the story is getting more intense and the little minigames, more fun. Laughed because at one point i was working on a little puzzle and i was wondering why the hell the minigame wasn't over and it wanted me to "flip the puzzle over, so i pressed all the buttons, flicked the pen, and the bumpers so i damn near rage quit, but after opening and closing the ds system, it flipped the puzzle over which is pretty fucking clever if you ask me. Good shit over all.

>>1234
The hospital sequence is fucking thrilling, my favorite part is when your stuck in a parking garage with one of those fuckers and you have to walk around and hopfully avoid it, lol at one point i was kinda walking behind it and at the last second turned in another direction. The first time i died, i was walking down a hospital corridor and the fucker appeared out of nowhere and was walking IN MY DIRECTION so i was like: fuck this but he started following me and caught up and killed me. Tried again, theres a room nearby where you can hide for a few minutes so he can leave, then you can keep on going. Glad to make progress and atleast the game isnt utter trash so far.

>>1245
If i have to say anything about the story, it's fine. Some people where bitching about the death scene, but honestly i don't know. It doesn't seem too retarded, her leg got stuck in the tree trunk, (which made a loud noise) what was she supposed to do? The alien heard her and was going to go in for the kill, how was the death of a certian character her fault exactly? (her leg literally broke through the rotten wood, its the trees fault) yeah she dropped the inhaler but again that was after and she was already fucked to begin with. If anything, the second her leg got stuck and the loud noise was made because of it, the boyfriend should have gotten a rock or something and threw it at a car or really anything and fucking wait for fuck knows how long for the alien to leave. Of cource that's not what happened but thats the only solution for it. I'm also curious as to how the alien broke in the hospital, i mean they've been living in there for god knows how long, and the alien just broke in? Did someone fuck up outside and attract its attention or something?

The megaman zero games for the DS are difficult but really fun, and cool to boot.

Dude, if you like watercolor art in games you really ought to check out SaGa Frontier 2 Remastered. Tomomi Kobayashi really needs more of the love that Yoshitaka Amano used to get.

>>1200
I feel gba is slept on a lot. I just got into mario kart super circuit, one of my new favorites in the series. I should explore the system's library a bit more, but I'm well aware of how much shovelware there is to sift through, that and snes ports.

>>1242
The GBA was one of the system that made me fall in love with vidya games. When I play games from the system now it still has it magic for me. Retro GBA games are must play in my opinion.

Metal Slug Advance for the gba is addicting as fuck and both looks and performs pretty great. I'm a dumbass so i keep fucking myself over but there's no way i can put it down, i gotta make it to the end this time.

>>1221
this but throw in some thinly veiled fetish content like doing a quick time event to escape the monster who'll spank you to death

>>1222
So basically Higurashi Rei as well, but not as lighthearted?

>>1223
Yeah but lets throw in that the main character had a girlfriend much to the dissaproval of the town and her parents, and an ex of the girlfriend character who is a male, beats the girlfriend to death with specifically a baseball bat which kicks off the story. Also you can look at the player characters panties.

>>1220
yeah and I'm really excited about it, since I love silent hill as well as japanese history and religion which this seems to be heavily involved with, but I'm still gonna be mad about silent hills being cancelled until I die lol

>>1230
Did you ever see the P.T aka silent hill easter egg in metal gear solid the phantom pain?

>>1115
It seems like Notch would like to make a game in general, so it may not be Minecraft per se, but if he manages to make something like Minecraft in this day and, age I'd be amazed.

1.7.10 has the best and most comfiest mods. Millenaire, Witchery, Minefantasy2, and the LOTR mod are all great, I don't need anything else. I thought about learning Java just to make more mods for 1.7.10 and fix up mods I already like.

I like the Create mod. Factories are such lovely things to build and there are some really powerful options for building like the hose pulley, Wand of Symmetry, and jetpacks (from an addon)
>>1113
He better stop calling it Minecraft 2 if he wants the game to be good. I know he was working on a voxel-based fps set in space that eventually turned into Minecraft, maybe it'll be something to do with that idea

I always thought the cave update was cool, besides the warden boss. Having undergound biomes is a neat idea.

I feel like thats funny because usually as a series grows, sometimes the later games usually are shit.

I finished Thunder Force III. It's a lot easier than the previous game. In fact, this may be the easiest shmup I've ever played. I had to record a whole level for the webm because the bosses all go down in seconds.
Still, I think this game is generally superior to Thunder Force II. Taking away the top-view levels keeps things focused and coherent, and the level design feels more intentional. Again, it leans into the variety of weapons as the main strategic element.
The graphics are greatly improved, not only with better sprites, but also some cool parallax effects and foreground elements, among other things. Likewise, the soundtrack has more nuance and longer loops.
As well-made as it is, this game is easy to recommend, especially for beginners. It might warrant a replay on a higher difficulty eventually, but first I'll move on to Thunder Force IV.

The emulation on the xbox systems, for it's "backwards compatibility" is unreliable, and in many cases has major glitches or bugs that'll make your game damn near unplayable, such as getting the black screen of death or getting your game frozen. Even now in the current year i'll be playing morrowind on the new xbox series x, and although the graphics are cleaned up, the trade off is unstable gameplay where opening up a tab too quick might fuck up the game. Hell, the game might say "fuck you" and quit anyway.
A direct reminder
>Supported Original Xbox and 360 games will run within an emulator and have access to certain Xbox One features, such as recording and broadcasting gameplay. Games do not run directly from discs. A repackaged form of the game is downloaded automatically when a supported game is inserted, while digitally-purchased games will automatically appear for download in the user's library once available. As with Xbox One titles, if the game is installed using physical media, the disc is still required for validation purposes.
Your system requires wifi to download the game from the store, the system CANNOT read the files from the disk. This is the same with people who own an xbox 360, internet is required (also a new hard drive) to access your original xbox games. Most of the problems actually availible on the 360 emulator for original xbox games have not been patched so if you get the black screen of death its microsoft being fuckers and not you or your systems.
Here's another unpatched bug from peacewalker, on the xbox series x, in the year of our lord 2023
Was playing the secret monster hunter level, and while i was fighting a monster he launched a fireball that gave the game INCREDIBLE LAGto the point where the game crashed and refused to open for a very long while.
Playstation, has NATIVE backwards compatibility. It has the chip that can actually read whatever disc depending on the system. As an example, the ps2 can play ps1 games natively, an earlier version of the ps3 can play ps, and ps2 games. Ps4 cannot play ps3 games. ps5 CAN play ps4 games natively, without emulation. There are problems, games might get bugs that cannot be patched, maybe issues with AA and some games not being playable.
This is a fair warning for those interested in investing in a new console and thinking you can somehow enjoy your older games on newer systems without a hitch.

With that out of the way, how are GB/GBA games handling with emulators? I'm assuming that there might be problems with certian games that use the internal clock as an example like pokemon.

I used to use CDRomance a lot before it went down a while back, and am disappointed to find out that it needs login to use now.
Also what's up with emuparadise. Every one of its links seem to no longer work.

I've been using edge emulation and it's sister site but it seems it's down for now.
This is unrelated, but does anyone know if there's a good dump for the Addams Family game on PC Engine CD? mine looks like this

Spyro the dragon is something else. I might be biased because i grew up with games that had shitty low poly graphics but even now it looks, plays and sounds good. I remember playing spyro when i was 5 at a friends house and the crash bandicoot racing game. But spyro still hits me like a ton of bricks when ever i remember it. I was playing spyro remastered recently and its great don't get me wrong, it doesn't beat the original.

Playing games on the bionicle website was fun, two of the games gave you FREE music like from paramore, and a dutch band called cryoshell, the ones i'm most nostalgic for was the mata nui online games, the music for one thing was incredible, the visuals was nice because you can finally see what it looked like in the books, and i love the gameplay, classic point and click with fun minigames. I remember one that was basically soccer and it was fun as heck.

>>1126
One sad thing to see was they stopped selling Bionicles. I remember my family looking for bionicles and finding out they were discontinued at Legoworld.

>>1127
It was a sad day indeed. Especially since they rapidly ended the story and the figures got downgraded, and lacked articulation. Terrible sendoff if you asked me.

I was a big Golden Sun fan.
That said, I was playing N64 with my friends recently and realized how much Smash 64 and Pokemon Stadium I played as a child. I say this because I kept winning.
