Do you emulate games?

Did you know that rotational velocidensity affects all ROM files ripped to a harddrive? These include .smc, .smd, and .sa1.

What this means is that for each year the ROM sits on your hard drive, it will lose roughly 12kbs, assuming you have SATA - it's about 15kbs on IDE, but only 7kbs on SCSI, due to rotational velocidensity. You don't want to know how much worse it is on CD-ROM or other optical media.

I started collecting ROMs in about 2001, and if I try to play any of the games I downloaded back then, even the stuff I ripped myself, they just play like crap. The audio is terrible, the visuals...well don't get me started on that diarrhea. Some of those games have degraded down to 60 or even 30kbs. Cartridges from the same period still play great, even if they weren't stored correctly, in a cool, dry place. Seriously, either stick to cartridges or use an SSD. you may not be able to see the difference now, but in a year or two, you'll be glad you did.

People think that religions the only source for morals. Actually morality was a behavior that was developed evolutionarily. Helps a species survive when we're not murdering each other.

>when we're not murdering each other
We've done that since the dawn of mankind. Over the past 3,400 years there's only been 268 (or roughly 8%) of recorded years of peace in the world.

>>313141885
and yet we survived

why?

because we tried really hard not to murder each other too much

Talk about a series falling off a cliff...

Metal Gear Scanlon is practically unwatchable now, and to think at one point it was the best content on the site.

Drew just wants to Rambo the entire game, which in past Metal gears is fine, but you need soldiers for your base. he doesn't even try to stealth.

Considering MGSV is 5 hours of "story", 40 hours of doing same shit over and over (side-ops and most "story" missions) and 45 hours of going from point A to point B in an empty map, you're lucky you haven't died of boredom watching these.

Previous MGS's were tight experiences with something completely new around every single corner (except backtracking parts).

Because he needs to survive to give you an excuse to do an underwater section in MGS2

If your level is;
>overly long and overly difficult at the same time
>a 'maze' of pipes and doors
>bullet hell
>"DON'T MOVE LOL"
>a remake
>over emphasis on platforming (like single blocks that you must jump between)

Then stop making levels
