Sorry, but super-massive black holes aren't wormholes (which may not even exist anyway). They crush everything into literal non-existence. Under some models black holes actually DO punch through and come out the other side of the universe. But as you observed, the gravity is gonna rip things apart before you get there. So they'd come out the other side as a stream of subatomic particles.

Through downloads of ROM images. The system is 99.99999999% guaranteed to be emulating everything but GameCube. Nintendo's already got commercial emulators of the NES, SNES, and N64 on the 'Cube(EA released a boxing game with an emulation of Super PunchOut). Not really.The PS2 kept a lot of PS1 hardware onboard. Original PS CPU is used as an input processor on the PS2, and I've been told the video hardware is backwards-compatible to some degree. So it's a lot like a Gameboy Advance playing 8-bit games(but not totally, as the PS2 uses some degree of emulation). The 360 is a totally diffrent system. There's no hardware commonality. It's more like the SNES and N64, 2600 and 5200, Saturn and Dreamcast, or *insert combo here*. It's all emulation, and MS is apparently running through on a per-game basis instead of just opening the emulator to everything. That or they're just only letting it run fully-tested games. Either way, it's locked to support of select games, with patches to come later. Personally, I think they should've made a general emulator and opened it up, especially given they're insisting everything will run eventually. Instead of flat-out TELLING people that this game won't run and not letting them try, they should provide a polite note that it hasn't been tested and may exhibit glitches and let them try to play anyways. The Sony way, if you will. Sidenote: a handful of PS1 games exhibited severe bugs on the PS2, some to the point of unplayability. Updates to the PS1 drivers fixed some of these issues, but not all of them. Actually, neither company owns all the rights. The PS2, admittedly, is almost all custom components. The DVD and RAM are the only parts I know of that someone else holds rights to. The PS1 they don't own the CPU or drive on. The RAM is a free standard on that one, as far as I know. Nintendo's always used variants of standard processors. And the tech in the SNES' sound box is SONY'S, of all people. More for it's embracing of online game distribution as a major selling factor. Emulation's not that new.

And the latest in mail-in game exchanges! The latest incarnation of Pokemon(currently only out in Japan) has a bug where if hte DS and GBA versions are inserted into a DS for data exchange, saves are often deleted or corrupted. If you were dumb enough to import, you're screwed.

Either that, or we could upload massive amounts of porn to the forums, and when he gets the bandwidth bill, he'll be like..... and HAVE to come around. 348163[/snapback] Sounds like a plan.

I think the official story is just "disappeared near the center of the galaxy." Black hole conveys the intent quite well, though. And there IS supposed to be a supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way...

Teah. And if Tolstoy had big-breasted beach volleyball brawls, people mighjt actually READ.

One of the PS1 Gran Tourismos had severe enough glitches that SCEA had a mail-in exchange program. Virtua Fighter on the Saturn was bad enough that Sega America gave Virtua Fighter Remix away free to owners of the original version, too(no mail-in exhcange though, so you got to keep your crappy glitch-ridden disk). It's rare(largely because console games are better debugged due to the lack of patchability), but it happens sometimes.

Beats having to mail the game in and wait for a replacement, which has happened with some titles. Besides, this is just choppy netplay. PC games don't work right in single-player out of box.

Ah, so they do exist. So, I'm guessing they are there for the sake of being there in the background while the focus is on the girls for the sake of silly fanboys? Sad. 347721[/snapback] Don't you know anything about this game? The female characters in Dead or Alive have always been one of the biggest draws of this series. Obviously, the producers of this film are going to take that ball and run with it. 347860[/snapback] Yes, but I'm seeing a lack of cleavage and a similar lack of purple hair dye.

Thsi is the greatest thing I've seen. You know, aside from Reiko. RIDGE RACER 6 IS BROKEN!

It still goes right back to Harmony Gold. They're the ones lining their pockets with our cash as many times as possible..Remember when they said there would be no remaster of Robotech because it wasn't possible? That there would be never be an "extended edition" of Robotech? And that there would not under any circumstances be a dub version of Macross, Southern Cross, and MOSPEADA? Then there was a remastered and extended version of Robotech released. And now a dubbed Macross.

Some guys have all the luck...

I THINK it's because the legs ahven't been recurved for the new length. Just a guess.

Umm....

No. Because the cover art was great as-is.

Hey, hey, hey! AC/DC is never horrible. The trailer however is megashit. 347444[/snapback] Point 1 is debatable. Point 2 isn't, though.

Yah. The shorter legs are a little better.

Nuking it from orbit: The official solution to all your problems.

I'd make an offer if I weren't broke. And I've have the ROM image for years.

I believe they've said 6 eps a disk is the target. Not sure, though.

I think I heard something about Sean Connery providing the voice of Hikaru...

Thank goodness.

That actually came from the director's mouth during a Q&A that followed a pre-screening of AvP. He claimed the theatrical release is missing a lot of scenes that would have made it a better movie and these scenes would be restored in a future DVD release. 347064[/snapback] Does that mean Fox is planning a THIRD DVD remix of the show?

That 70s woodgrain look has power.

Until they leap out and bite you in the face...
