17daysolderthannes memorial thread: "Why ipad gaming is the shit"

[Drakon]

maxwar if it makes you feel better for a while I read "viletim" like "vil-e-tim". Until I realized "tim" is his name.

[JDB]

there are 62 posts in this thread.

As dictated by the church of 17days, I will proceed in killing 62 kittens.

That is all. Lock the thread.

pack in you say ?
according to thatgamasutra article ( and other sources) the games the nes came with in 1985 were duckhunt and gyromite in standard retail boxes ( to give it that toy feeling )
smb 1 came as a pack in later
are you sure it wasnt a game you got with it ?

He's set on that one. Several dead horses were repeatedly beaten in that conversation.

How the hell did this thread reach three pages? Unban Metal Sonic.

This. Metal Sonic was hilarious.

When I was younger, maybe junior high, I got roped into watching my 3 month old niece while my sister got her hair done. SO when there i am, sitting in the waiting area of a hair salon with my niece, and who walks in, but Keanu Reeves.

I was nervous as shit, and just kept looking at him, as he read a magazine and waited, but didn't know what to say. Pretty soon though my niece started crying, and I'm trying to quiet her down because I didn't want her to bother Keanu, but she wouldn't stop. Pretty soon he gets up and walks over. He started running his hands through her hair and asking what was wrong. I replied that she was probably hungry or something. So, Keanu put down his magazine, picked up my niece and lifted his shirt. He breast fed her right there in the middle of a hair salon. Chill guy, really nice about it.

It's always funny how people remember other forum members.

TheEdge

Person 1 : Nice guy, good opinions!
Person 2 : Fucking douchebag who was trolling!

Solder Thannes

Person 1 : Funny guy, I miss his posts!
Person 2 : Fucking retard who thought his opinion was better then anyone else.


Someone could be the biggest asshole and still be remembered fondly, guess it depends whether or not he personally attacked you.

I usually feel like person 1, but know usually sees what happened with person 2 . . . ie I tend to get along with forum members who I know get into trouble with others. Well, aside from complete un-interesting idiots who I wouldn't bother to converse with anyway.
There's a lot of neat/interesting people who just get into stupid fights with others at times (personality clashes mostly) and end up saying really stupid things once would up, including some remarkably intelligent people (and under the right conditions, useful, interesting, and helpful contributors). It's usually not surprising if they get banned, but it's still sad to loose them for those reasons. (and sad that they couldn't get along with certain others . . . not that it wasn't their own fault, but still frustrating and sad IMO)
I've seen it happen here, on Atariage, and on wwiiaircraft.net (which I used to frequent ).






Anyway, on a more lighthearted note, there was one member (before my time) who was particularly ridiculous and either a really good troll (or a real concern troll) or just really weird.
I can't remember the username, but I'm sure Rusty and some others know. He was always going on about certain SNES stuff and random things, including something about certain SNES games using mode 7 (which weren't) and how he "knew" this since he had a "broken SNES that didn't have mode 7" or something like that.

I'm pretty sure he topped Zoltor several times over, even that Dreamcast cache thing.

Was that Bastard Cat? I remember him going on about how Axelay used mode 7 even though we told him again and again it doesn't.

Are you refering to Rugal "The Sizz" Sizzler? (forget his Sega-16 name at the moment). If so, he was the greatest poster to hit both Sega-16 & DigitPress.....NAY THE ENTIRE INTERNET!

Nobody could handle his jawusum responses. Nobody.

It's sounds like you might have a couple of conversations crossed.

I had thought that the opening sequence to FFIII used mode 7. I also have a SNES that won't display mode 7, but I haven't owned FFIII for a long time now. It would be interesting to try some of those games I had thought were mode 7, with that console. I don't know if I'll ever buy another copy of FFIII again, though.
