It's transcode, though. :cry:
 
Oh great, now you're going to get thrown down a flight of steps and be taken to the hospital in a wheel barrel only to be found soaken wet and muddy by the cops after the wheel barrel tips over and you roll down a hill in the rain.

Typical.

[quote name='rabbitt']I don't even know what that means.

What does it?[/QUOTE]
I think it's shitty quality encoding.

In other words: Sounds like shit.

Somehow Madden 07 on the Wii is selling for at least $20 on eBay (while the other versions struggle to get past $10), so I'm going to have to list is and make some money to get the next version. I'll have to get these DC and PS1 game lots listed, too, while I'm at it.
 
[quote name='rabbitt']Oh.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, Brak is right.

I really don't want to do homework. I don't need to, but it would make this week easier on me. Maybe I'll do some math and then write one of my 4 essays.

After I eat pizza for breakfast at 2:30pm.
 
Google Checkout seems to have caught on to my PayPal virtual debit card usage. I need to figure out how I'm gonna keep getting the discount with multiple accounts. :whistle2:k

Flight Simulator was boring as shit... I got lost and flew out over the ocean for 30 minutes.

Not sure what I expected, but it sure wasn't that.

Oddly enough, there are no used copies on Ebay... weird.

And now I see why - once you install it and activate the CD Key, it can't be used on any other computer.

fucking lame. It was free, but now I'm stuck with it forever.
 
Hey, how do I get a gamecube game to play in 480 mode on the Wii. Specifically RE4.

My TV can handle 480i mode. Not 480p. It's an older 27" Sony Wega. So I have the Wii hooked up to component cables and can play and so things in 480i widescreen. But I popped in RE4 and it's running in standard mode. not 480 mode. At least, I think so. I had to go back from widescreen. Can I get re4 in a 480 mode? Or is it because I only have 480i and not 480p?

I don't think gamecube games play in HD. Could be wrong though as I don't own a Wii.

I was going to ask what you were expecting, but...
[quote name='Roufuss']Not sure what I expected, but it sure wasn't that.[/quote]
...

On second thought, what were you expecting from a flight simulator?
 
Supposedly you can play gamecube games in 480p on the wii. But i've been playing wii games and just started on my GC backlog. What makes it confusing is that not all GC games support 480p. But I thought re4 did.

I think the problem is that my Wii is set for 480I and not 480p. If I had it set for 480p I think RTE4 would automatically start in 480p. But because it';s only 480i th game is starting in standard.

I don't know, at least some kind of map to know where the hell I was going... I looked through every option available and never found a map to use.

The graphics, even on Ultra High for everything, were pretty shit as well. I read that you need to buy the Deluxe edition to get good graphics, apparently.

Luckily, I read that MSFX gives two activation keys, so I only used one so luckily I can still sell it for $20 - $25... nothing like free money!

Admiral, the Wii doesn't upscale, so it's not going to run games in 480p that weren't initially designed for it.
 
Until just a few minutes ago, I cannot recall the last time I thought, "Well, I just ordered a pizza to be delivered...I better go put some pants on."

I'm betting alcohol was involved somehow back then...

Well... yeah, you're supposed to set it to 480p... which I'm wondering why you haven't done that already? Are you playing all of your Wii games on a TV that supports progressive scan in 480i for the heck of it?

Right, but I think RE4 supports 480P. DUnno for sure.

It looks like it does from reading it online.

I've tried that, I hold down the B button on my Wavebird and restart the the wii. But nothing comes up.

Shadowrun and Flight Simulator cost you $50 and tax, right?

You sold Shadowrun for $38 on eBay.

You could sell Flight Simulator for around $22 (median).

$60 - $50 = $8-9 (I secretly subtracted your previously paid sales tax)

Was that worth the time and gas?

That's all my Tv support. it supports 480i in a widescreen mode but not 480p. So I didn't know if RE4 supported 480i. But I guess it doesn;t.

When I get my new HDTV at the end of the month I'll test it out again.

It can only be played in a forced letterbox mode, but it can be run in either 480i or 480p.

The new Wii version coming out supposedly has realy 16:9 support.

Either your dump shaft or a stripper's thong. :lol:
 
I finally have Crush sitting in front of me.


You'd think that for delaying the PSP and PS3 versions of Rainbow Six: Vegas for 6+ months, they'd knock $10 off the price to spur a little news about their releases.

Roufuss: so the graphics are crap? I was under the impression the requirements were really damn high and MSFSX made a good benchmark for your comp, so I was going to save it for when I upgrade my computer.

Should I throw it on ebay?

Oh, and thanks for the heads up. 1 cent for any game is awesome.

edit: how do I view finished auctions? I'm trying to see if it would be worth it to sell and I want to know what they're going for (doesn't look like it'd be worth selling from the current auctions though...)

Not a reply to this, but I upped that album.
 
[quote name='LiquidNight']Grabbing it now, thanks.[/QUOTE]

No prob. I'm hoping other people like it. BTW, I totally whored myself out by putting my review on the album's page.
 
I want to pick up a few things from the B2G1 sale. I would like to get DMC, PoP: Sands of Time, and Killer 7 as I ended up not getting them before. Maybe I'll head up to GS this week.

[quote name='Pancake Rabbit']Killer 7 pissed me off like no other.[/QUOTE]
What choo talkin bout?

I heard it was a wierd fucking game that had it's draw back but was a decent game overall.
 
[quote name='Pancake Rabbit']Ended up going to Arby's. It was delicious. Also, nutritious.[/QUOTE]


I'm going to Arby's in an hour., and it will be delicious, but let's not talk crazy talk. Unless all you got was the green parts of a salad.
