Why would anyone want to program in assembly anymore? Any speed losses from C/C++ (if there are any...) are negligible considering the portability, readability, and reusability of higher level code.

Very nice, but the game crashed on me.

After dying, I got the high score name prompt. I typed in the name 'a' and pressed enter. It took me back to the main menu, I pressed x to start a new game,...

No, I understand what the thread is about. Guess my joke wasn't that funny...

Anyhow, I wouldn't mind a new Battletoads.

What?! Mario Strikers will own.

A series that needs to be reborn is Final Fantasy. Everything after FFIX is just a partial birth abortion.

EDIT: That's my disappointment with FFX speaking... I...

Revolution, 'nuff said.

Starting to program on the GBA is a bit harder than starting on the PC. The GBA hardware is controlled by several memory registers. It is up to we programmers to build our systems around these...

It's easy. I simply ask myself this question... "Is it worth dropping $400 to play a bunch of ports and launch day games that don't harness the full power of the system?" For me, the answer is no,...

My local Wal-Mart has a unit available for play. I've only played through the CoD2 demo, but my opinion is that the Xbox 360 is not worth the price of admission right now.

The graphics aren't...

EDIT: Thanks for the censorship, Cyber

I have been running Folding@home for quite a while, and currently have a rank of 42,791. I looked into SETI and other distributed computing programs, but this one struck me as the most useful. One of...

I wouldn't necessarily say that developers are losing respect for gaming, but that they are losing respect for the publisher-fueled model of gaming. In fact, there was a rant session on it at the...

Yeah, I have a recording that is dated January 29, 2005, so I've had it since before then.

P.S. and I do play the English version.

I can't help you with disassembly, but I just gotta comment that Warning Forever ROCKS! I play it regularly. So far, I've achieved a top score of 14 and some million points (dunno what level that...

I've said it in another thread, and I'll say it again. I am not looking forward to the Xbox 360 at all... not even a little bit.

For starters, I don't like paying to play my games online....

Well... I guess I could submit the model loading portion of my engine into a mini-competition, but I'd need to find a place to host the zip file. I was going to post it just to give the forums...

According to this link, the conference starts at 9:00 am PST.

W...T...F! Looks like someone needs an education. First of all, Nintendo keeps putting out consoles and handhelds because they MAKE MONEY! A whole lot of money. Everything Nintendo sells equals...

My engine stores all content assets (such as textures, models, etc.) in STL maps. However, if I load and unload the same asset multiple times over the course of the program, I noticed my memory...

The bits thing was just a joke... geez you guys...

I saw a little footage of Rainbow Six and Sega's Twisted Metal clone and they both look very nice. Aside from the graphics, though, nothing about...

I'd say you were crazy for picking MGS2... but then again, you are crusher :P

Here are my picks:

Pikmin
Metroid Prime
Ikaruga
Eternal Darkness
Splinter Cell
Super Monkey Ball

Nice specs... but how many bits is it?!

True, the GBA only shows part of the background. That is the beauty of using a huge background, you can use the parts that won't get shown as a tile cache. The only downside is that you have to...

This may seem obvious, but bear with me, I'm just thinking aloud :P

I was thinking of a tile streaming scheme similar to the one used in Final Fight 3 on the SNES, where you have "junctions" in...

I'd guess that the bottom ports are for charging the controller.
