Oh yay, new Xbox dashboard. Now it looks like those phones for old people.... the ones with the oversized buttons. All the thumbnails are huge now.
G'morning you lot.
Oh yeah! :wacko:Quote:

Windows 8 has tainted everything Microsoft-related. :ahhh:Quote:

Is Windows 8 available already??? I'm apparently behind the times. Every time M$ release a new update I think I lose a few IQ points.
I really need to play a Phantasy Star game - I never have. I always hear good things, but I wasn't a Sega kid growing up so I missed all those games....
Not the full retail version. Although I'm sure you could download some kind of preview version to try out. But from what I've read/heard is they changed the interface to look like a smart phone interface. Completely ugly and retarded for a desktop PC. So from what you've said about the 360s new dash, it looks like they did a similar fucked up style interface for that as well. :-PQuote:

I meant to tell you about a converter that a buddy of mine has, though. He has an old pirate Famicom multi-cart connected to a pirate Famicom->NES converter. It's enclosed in a pretty snazzy case and looks like an official product. I wanted to buy it off him, but I think his sister still uses it. If he still has it next time I'm over there I'll try and remember to bring my camera and take a picture of it.
I just discovered that there is also a Phantasy Star pirate for the original Gameboy! :ahhh:
It's going to be a total failure. But what the hell do I know, I'm still on XP. :wacko:Quote:
