    Microsoft wants the next-gen Xbox Helix to play every Xbox game ever made as it urges publishers to opt in

    Being able to play any physical game, from the OG Xbox to the Series X/S (and Helix itself), sounds kinda nice. I'm not sure how XEMU and Xenia are doing in terms of compatibility, accuracy, and playability these days. I believe Xbox One had a project that did the whole translation layer thing...

    Unpopular Opinions 2.0

    You know, I disliked Saints Row 3 for its unapologetic commuting. Since you could activate a mission anywhere, there was no thoughtful design to the beginning of most missions. You select a mission, it gives you your morning commute, you go there, then you'll likely have to travel to the actual...

    Which watch makes you feel the most put-together? I'm intrigued.

    Closest thing I can think of is The Ninth Gate (1999) with Johnny Depp.

    inFAMOUS: Fun, Obnoxious, or Both?

    I admit that I wrote the OP in a slight rush, and I think I jump around on my points. I do think the game wants to be moderately paced, but its action gets hectic enough that the player may feel constrained by its faults, such as enemies having excellent long-range accuracy and the...

    inFAMOUS: Fun, Obnoxious, or Both?

    On a whim, I loaded up Sucker Punch's debut PS3 game inFAMOUS. In some ways, the 2009 game holds up. It looks pretty darn good, and the movement mechanics, from running to climbing, feel fairly solid. The game has plenty of 7th gen niceties, such as using R3 to switch between left- and...

    BS The Legend of Zelda full version released (CN)

    This sounds great, but I'm not up to date on my BS Zelda happenings. Did the community find all the individual weekly "episodes" and their associated audio files? If so, that's excellent. I know I've looked through the BS Zelda Homepage a few times, but I've never completely understood what's...

    I want to create an OS

    TL;DR: The Github got shut down, due to TOS violations.

    I want to create an OS

    Just checking in. Is Flame OS a thing yet?

    Favorite video game track/song?

    Hahaha, I have a soft spot for Toot Toot Sonic Warrior. (Not its official name, I know.) It's very nostalgic for me because it's very characteristic of 90's Japan. It's memorable, high energy (Especially Keiko Utoku's aggressive performance), and strangely hypnotic. The actual animation- the...

    The Meme Box

    This doesn't belong in any funny thread. Since I lived through the 90's (and Nintendo trained us well), my brain could only interpret that tweet in this way. TL;DR: Never end anything- even a long statement- with "64." It will automatically be interpreted as an N64 game title.

    Gaming Free Games thread

    Thank you, as always, Blythe93: The Treasure Tracker. I grabbed this one. @shadowflare7799, I know you already peruse this thread, but I thought I'd bring this to your attention, since it has online co-op. Even though I'm absolutely terrible at tower defense, I have a weakness for the genre.

    ROM Hack Better Super Mario Sunshine Online released, adds online co-op and custom hide and seek game mode to play

    Kudos to the modder(s). Even with Super Mario Sunshine's slow start, a bunch of friends bouncing around would really liven up the whole experience. If I had the time, I'd dive into this with a few people.

    ROM Hack Ocarina of Time 3D gets huge mod to enable single-screen play

    Oh man, Younger Me would have jumped right into this. I appreciated Nintendo continuing the two-screen gimmick with the 3DS, but I feel like OoT is the type of action game that's best played on one screen. Kudos to the modder(s). TL;DR: Back in my day, we opened and closed the pause me to...

    Gaming I can't get hard anymore

    If you play sixth gen and before, you're (almost completely*) safe from The Digital Future(tm). * Particularly in regards to the original Xbox, some DLC remains missing. (For example, Driver 3/DRIV3R.)

    Waluigi Appreciation Thread

    This one from @hippy dave has been bothering me. How do we know Wario is a bad plumber? (The Waluigi-Costumed Man is merely "Bad Plumber's Mate," and that's assuming that- since we're bootlegging- the Wario-Costumed Man is designated as Bad Plumber and not the gentleman behind him.) Like, are...

    if you met your family/guardians when you were a little kid via time travel, what would be the dialogue?

    I searched the whole topic for this joke, but I didn't find it. I'd tell my parents to tell me not to sign up for gbatemp.

    This isn't funny, this is how we got around space limitations, both in memory and screen space. TL;DR: "Learned Slep" is funny.

    post here funny pictures

    We know from the iMac that things are best left modular. Combining the seat with the desk means less customization, such as back or height adjustments. Just getting into the seats in the lower photos sounds like an inelegant process. TL;DR: Who remembers the 2000's?
