Remember when Games used to be about fun?

It could also be my piece of crap graphics card, geforce 4 (its so sad for me downgrading to that after my 7300 GT burned up)
I don't know what it was honestly, I already switched my PC back to XP after some configuration issues (my disk drive wasn't reading DVDs no matter what, and Wine couldn't run some of the games I wanted to play). I probably could've spent more time configuring, but too late for that now, everything runs great again.

The GeForce 4 was amazing. You could play a lot of top games when it was released.

True, it's really reliable, and can play some older games and even games up to like Morrowind Flawlessly. The only downside is I can't run new games, I wish I could get Oblivion running, because I did before the 7300 Burned up.

Why would you even think to run new games on a GeForce 4? The old card is for old games which it does perfectly, even better than newer cards IMO. Keep the card around for if you decide to make an emulation box (or old Windows/DOS box) like I'm doing. I only need these items to finish a computer for TV use:

case
power supply
RAM (DDR1 style)

optional:

Extra hard drive (IDE/PATA)

I can't find any of those locally.

I'm not thinking of running new games on the geforce 4, it wouldn't work anyways. I'd buy a new card, but this PC is getting old, and I don't have enough money to buy a new PC right now. I must wait.

Time to start putting more time into consoles! *grabs Genesis controller*

To this day, I cannot stand Nintendo's cross key D-pad. It's horrible for diagonal movement, and it's murder on my fingers. Genesis 6-button and Saturn D-pad FTW.

Agreed. Even the Turbografx had a good d-pad. It is a little lame that they just copied the NES controller layout, but it has a much, much better d-pad, and is more comfortable to hold.

The fact that these shit games exist proves that there are no good games on the Wii. Don't you see that?!

Holy shit you're right! By having shit games exist, it means that they will never ever make good games.
