If you're looking for it and can't find it, how are we going to find it? It's like going to see a movie with someone and asking them what's going to happen.
How the hell should we know? We're just watching too.
It's just common courtesy not to ask what will happen in a movie, and not to ask if a game has been dumped.
Just wait to see what happens.

Good point and I understand what you are trying to say, but I believe when someone asks when the game will be dumped, they are not directing the question toward the average user. The question itself is probably for the person or group whom is dumping it. Just like if you wanted to know what happens next in a movie, its obvious that you would only ask someone who has already seen the movie or you thought might have seen the movie.

I might be waiting for the dump but I wouldn't go as far as to ask on a forum, because I know it will eventually be dumped, but you really shouldn't flame someone for curiousity of whats going on. Although if they do constantly post new threads of it, I could see why it would be annoying, but thats why the forums have mods

The groups that dump games aren't public on forums such as this.
Maybe you live in a less annoying place where people don't ask stupid questions all the time. I envy that.
I have 8 siblings in this house. Younger. Siblings.

I don't often flame and I haven't here today, though.
It's not worth defending these people who ask though. They're shameless and only see posts they want to see.
 
Google doesn't always have the answer, that's why people ask questions. If asking questions are wrong, you might as well kill yourself, because if you didn't ask questions you'd be a fucktard.


The point is, it was asked once, and it was answered, that's all there needs to be, the second someone had to come in and say "stop whining" they turned it into a flamewar.

Thats pretty much what I was trying to say, just in a nicer way. Thanks for summing it up lol. I believe everyone here at GBAtemp are somewhat respectable people in some way and you should help your fellow man, even if he is annoying you.

Remember, what goes around, comes around!

Not valid points. Asking questions is fine, but asking if a game is dumped is stupid.
There are stupid questions.
Google includes GBAtemp.

It's easy to go to Hadrian's threads, IGN, or one of the other 500 gaming sites and check.
if the info isn't there, you're not going to find it, suck it up, wait it out.
 
He wasn't actually asking if it had been dumped, and in fact he knew that it hadn't been. It sounds to me like the OP was wanting some insight into the mysterious world of dumpers. Its kind of a question I have always had as well, why some (possibly more popular) games take longer to be dumped than the lesser known and usually lower quality games.

I really don't see why every one wants to attack the guy for being curious about the way things work. I mean seriously if you don't want to answer his question or can't why even post?


But all in all everyone will continue to do what they do. People will still ask about game releases and dumps, and other people will go into their topics to attack and flame instead of just ignoring it. It can be a cold and bitter world.

what are you talking about, are you that incompetent?!

If the game is dumped it'll be here (it doesn't have to be on the main page with the picture on for you to see it, and know that this is the game you're looking for!!)
You have the whole part of the GBAtemp site where all releases are numbered and up to the last release, if it's not here IT'S NOT DUMPED!!
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showforum=103
Get it?! No need for creating a topic..
Pyrofyr, if the game isn't on this list, IT'S NOT DUMPED.
What are you talking about?!

It's OK to ask question, but it's stupid to ask something you can check yourself in about half minute..

Well, I didn't get it like that!!

You should write your question differently then, and topic title shouldn't have been line rider 2 if you were asking about game dumps generally, and if you used used this game as an example!!

why is it taking so long for this to be dumped?
It pretty much looks like you were asking for a dump!!

It doesn't look like that to me, I completely understood his post and what he wanted to know. But I am sure you have seen many posts asking about roms and dumps that your vision and understanding on anything remotely to do with dumps might have been lulled. I can see how any question post with the word "dump" in it could set you off on a rant.

But we have found out that he just wanted to know more about the process of releasing dumps than release date for a specific dump.


I believe we can take this experience and learn from it

(or maybe not).

No, actually, you didn't catch our point miketh2005....It's irritating to see topics like this for every single game that isn't dumped in a hour of it's release..
You have a topic where you can report the game that hasn't been dumped, you can ask there if somebody maybe has it, it doesn't matter if OP didn't update the topic, you can still post there, and it doesn't mean that other people can't answer you..
There were few (at least two) topics about line rider 2, so this is really unnecessary..You say that we don't visit topics like this if we don't like them, well, it bothers me to see useless topics in "most recent topics" list, or flooded boards with similar topics that doesn't use anybody..It's the same like "which cart should I get" topic..

this is what YOU expect us to do, by the time we go on this site, the game could already be taken off the homepage, we don't know, so we're asking if it has been dumped yet, anything wrong with that

And dude, you sure don't act like you're 21...


wth, so u expect us to go look through 112 pages to just find a game that we want? excuse me, but I would rather go ask some people who are willing to help, people don't even go to that topic anymore, therefore, it's useless, even if you did post their you'd get a post 1 month later saying "OH, it's been dumped 2 weeks ago! you should've known!" and HE was talking about the HOMEPAGE not a forum, and: QUOTE

That's where no self-control comes in, instead of just AVOIDING them like paul said, you go in here flaming (well YOU not so much, but still...) the OP and everyone that sides with him, what do you get from posting these comments? or is it just useless spam to get your post count up? it doesnt help anyone, so dont post it... btw that's why i made that flashcard chart comparison chart, hoping it would take away those topics, but the mods never bothered to sticky it so now its on page 10...and the useless undumped games topic that was supposed to help these kinda topics never gets updated so, this forum is sad...
 
I was trying to help, that's why I posted link
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showforum=103
where he could easily find his answer..and I did admit I haven't realised he's asking about general dumps and not this particular game..

I rarely flame, and I surely don't post just to boost up my postcount, I couldn't care less abut it....I just replied how I felt at the moment, and at that given moment I thought that this is a useless topic that contributes nothing, and shows OP's own laziness..

But we got things straight!!

Wow, just wow, willwon, that post is so full of flaws (i guess i sound like im imitating you, but it's the only right word to use), just give up, you'll never find a way out to defend your stance...

QUOTE said:
Thats right! And like i said before, if you ask a company when a game will be out, "it'll be done when its done." Now, replace "done" with "dumped," and its the same thing. Glad you see that.

AT LEAST, we agree on something!

QUOTE said:
rm, but the front page IS available at any moment day and night, and that shows you when something has been dumped... so in a way, you DO have the "magazine" available at any point, so... yea, this is all null and void.

As I said, we're not 12 year old boys that, will keep refreshing a page, we might come back 2 weeks later to check and see if it's dumped, and to our suprise, the undumped list hasnt been updated! What we REALLY need is a reliable Undumped list post from one of the mods that will be updated everytime a game is out.

QUOTE said:
But if you post in a current thread, that bumps it, which brings it to the public eye, and doesn't create another trash topic! Wow! Imagine that.

Have you heard of locks? Maybe THATS why the mods aren't locking this one...

QUOTE
First, really? People create these threads for groups as a reminder to dump? Why the hell are there so many shitty games being dumped, and there aren't threads for them? Oh, right. Because they dump EVERYTHING. Its not like they're sitting there laughing at us why they're playing their dumps. If i want it, i'll buy it. It'll be dumped when its dumped (see a theme?).

And-
Wow... just. Wow. You are different from every other person to get a flash card. You aren't pirating! You're using it for demos. Which you're downloading pirated games to play w/out paying for them.... as demos! I've never ever ever heard that before. I've never used that excuse before. As well, i'm LYING with everything just said. As well are you. "Demoing" is bullshit. You don't want to pay money. Hence asking "WHY's IT NOT DUMPED!!!" Is the game released? Yes? Instead of bitching, buy it. Stop defending what we all know is bullshit reasons.

Well, I don't know their reasoning behind it, maybe they like to post these little topics to laugh at all the flamers out there to flame them, I really do have a great time reading your posts, this should be made into a book or something...and yes it will be dumped when its dumped, but when did it get dumped? Dumpers aren't gonna email everyone that wants their dump.......-....., hmm that gives me an idea.....-well nvm, anyway I don't buy a game for buying sake, that doesn't make sense, those who buy a game just to get it before it's dumped and save a few games instead of buying it to support the devloper are just plain stupid, and not to mention SELFISH, these devolopers might make games because they like it and it gives them money, but the ones who actually LISTEN to their fans and take critisim and make a truly outstanding game, deserve all of our money, and it's just BESIDE me that some people WHO HAVE THE MONEY (ok, yes, if if I don't have the money, it's not my fault, but i would promise to get that game whenever I do have money) don't buy the game that they love so much. I just, it just makes my stomach grumble and my heart ache, that people can be so selfish, I dunno, and ask anyone that has intelligence, you can TELL that this is from my heart, im not making this up and it's not bull****, do you think I would use flashcards and then "use them as demos" then go buy the game neither if the game is good or bad? now that IS bull**** no one in their right mind (unless their looney) would go do that, but if you want to support the devolper of the game you love so much, their is ample reason to do so, you must not read many .nfos because even in their they say "If you like a game, buy it" it's really not so hard, you can buy it online if you like, all I care about is that you give support to the devolper, same as music and software, if u like it and use/listen to it often, support the artist/maker. It really isn't that hard.
 
demikanized, GcRayden, and Pyrofyr, said it better then i could, asking a simple question, needs a simple answer, but then a second person posted, and started a flamewar, then it got more complicated
tongue.gif
this topic should be stickied for further refernce to how things should and shouldn't be, i thought i wouldn't get any back-up there for a moment
tongue.gif
 
but ANYWAY, why DO some games take longer to dump then others?
