This is amazing, PCSX2 is running pretty well on my shitty laptop and the temps are acceptable.

What Madness is this?!

Specs?

I could run FF12 which is up there on the ps2 emulation scale at full speed at full screen native with an AMD Turion 2 dual core at 2.4 ghz, ATI HD 4200, with 4 gb ram laptop. Of course that laptop died after just 5 weeks but why quibble.

I bet that thing fried to death.

Pentium dual core 2.30

6 GB Ram

Intel express chipset.

My comp could probably emulate just about everything. Kind of want to try it out this weekend too.

Eww. Even worse. The ram doesn't really matter at that point. You must be running something simple. Then again you didn't really specify which processor or gpu.

I'm just wondering because I see people with like fucking 770-850 games and 20-30% completion rates. That's a fuck load of games to buy. Imagine spending all that time to only lose the progress.

Buy, play then trade. Repeat.
I see a lot of kids in EB accompanied by an adult.

Still kind of an insane amount of games to have played over time. Granted he has like 60 plats and 25% overall completion.

[deadlegion]

20-30% completion sort of indicates single play through and maybe grabbing a few extra trophies. Many games you could do that easily in a day or two without much effort. Some games aren't long at all so for short ones in two days you could do 2 or maybe 3 @ 30%.

Look at the dates for the trophies. If he started like 3 years ago and he's a kid it isn't that insane really.

I'm interested if there are any examples of trophy whores getting banned from PSN playing pirated games. Would be interesting to see how they detect it for single player games.

I believe Sony only ever used to block access to PSN on CFW PS3s, I don't think the workarounds etc ever worked for long. Pirated games on PSN weren't really that much of a thing, nothing like it was on Xbox Live with flashed 360s.

Most PS3 pirate games were played offline, and there was no way to transfer your account to another PS3 to update your profile for trophies etc. So that person you mentioned probably just plays games but doesn't do any work for trophies, hence 25%.

Spose the only game on your profile I think you'll be able to get through quickly is PS All Stars. Everything else looks long/grindy/RPG

95% is pretty nice.

Dragon age has a shit load I can get quickly. I don't think getting to 20% is unrealistic for a weekend. If I put more time into the system after I bought it I wouldn't look so horrible.

I've never met any vegans who were pushy about their beliefs but they did seem to be the sort of people who would push it into your face, it's ok to just not eat animal products but to constantly draw attention to yourself about it does make them seem like their beliefs are quite shallow.

Yeah, I've definitely met a few people who, though not intolerant of others' dietary choices, kind of flaunt their own to draw attention to themselves and make themselves seem interesting or unique, and it frankly annoys me as much as anyone given that it's perpetuating already prevalent negative stereotypes about the kind of people that vegetarians and vegans are. I will say, though, that in many cases it's just something that's going to come up in conversation whether you like it or not. Food is a pretty common topic of discussion and a huge part of life, and it's pretty hard to talk honestly about food as a vegetarian or a vegan without mentioning that that's what you are given that it has a huge impact on what you do and don't eat. It's sometimes not a case of attention seeking so much as it is down to it being something that's very hard to omit in many conversations and situations.

Like... when I was living in Japan, I'm pretty sure that my diet was one of the first things I told people about when I met them. Not because I thought it was particularly interesting or something that made me quirky and oh-so-unique, but simply because one of the first questions I'd get would usually be, "Do you like Japanese food?", and any affirmative answer to that question would have to come with the caveat that there are lots of things in Japanese cuisine that I simply can't eat because of the diet that I follow.
