    dumb things/thoughts as a kid.

    When I was 6 I had a pet dog named Shadow. I thought it would be cool if he could breath fire like a dragon. Somehow I got the idea if he hate light bulb he would. Now it was too hard obviously to chew so my naive mind thought a trip to the microwave would help. I put it on a paper plate and a...

    What is the highest price you're willing to pay for a new released game?

    No more than $60 unless there's a LE/CE version I really want

    Significant other?

    I've had my girlfriend for almost 5 years (anniversary in July). We just got back from a vacation together. Only reason I haven't popped the question yet (though I've been tempted to just say it more times than I can count) is that the job market around here sucks and even with out combined...

    Hardware Gamepad Video Out?

    There has been talk of it here and there from the 3ds capture forums, but nothing has come of it yet. Really the only use for it is showing a video where the GP and TV have entirely different screens and you want to show them simultaneously.

    In addition to what to what Originality said, AMD has an overclocking utility that works from Windows and automates much or all of the process. It only works with specific chipsets though and has been stable whenver I have used it...

    Testing internet

    http://www.softperfect.com/products/networx/ Only tracks on a PC, but after a few benchmarks you should be able to get a good estimate. I'd say 25 Mbps is the perfect sweet spot

    Hardware Wii U Video Capture?

    That link seems legit. An alternative for your purpose is the Game Capture HD II. It'll let oyu record to an HDD rather than an SD card: http://gamerzone.avermedia.com//game_capture/game_capture_hd_2 How long it takes to convert depends on a variety of factors like container, format...

    Does anyone work with Vegas Pro? :)

    Capture at 1080p or 720p. Render at 30 fps at as close a resolution to your source as possible. I don't know what your render template is but MainConcept with a bitrate of at least 5mbps should give something decent. If not you should up the bitrate especially if there is a lot of motion or...

    HDMI capture card/device

    To use HDMI on PS# you need something like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003UYOEMI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The only things that would get you USB 3 are the Intensity Shuttle or the Extremecap U3. Both have limited motherboard compatibility. The current Avermedia...

    Running ps1 and ps2 games off of usb

    I've searched it before and I believe it is impossible to get PS1 off USB. I'm very rusty on it but a tutorial on Open PS2 Loader should explain playing off USB
