It's been a long, long time since I've visited Emutalk. O_o How has everyone been? Do any of you even remember me(probably not)? Regardless, just wanted to say hi to everyone again. :D

So yeah, I'm back after a LONG hiatus with emulating. I've finally upgraded my PC, got an Audigy 2 and a Nvidia 6600GT. Anyway, since I've always used ATi cards in the past, I'm a little unsure of what I need to use as far as settings or even what plugins. Any suggestions on a good, general...

Some FFX-2 tracks popped up on my Winamp playlist just a few minutes ago and it actually somewhat makes me want to go play it again. I only got about 10 hours into it before I quit anyway but bleh. Someone talk me out of it, please! >_<

With the advent of E3 opening this week the gaming industry has been abuzz with all sorts of news. The strangest, yet most talked about rumor between the various representatives that come in to EB has been that Sega is supposedly re-entering the home console market. I obviously have no others...

I guess a group of people think that they can remake Chrono Trigger. It's supposedly going to be on the PC then sent to developers for the XBox and GCN. *shrug* Seems a little too ambitious to me but what do I know? Here is a link to the site and one of the in game screens. Think it'll ever fly...

So yeah, I just found out that since I work at EB Games I get a discount on a custom built Alienware machine! @@ Needless to say, I'm stoked. My thing is this: do I go with the ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 PRO 128MB or NVIDIA FX go5600 128MB. I was thinking the 9600 Pro would be better simply...

FFXI just isn't running as fast as I'd like it too and I have about 200 bucks max to spend on a card. I'm thinking about upgrading to a 128 mb nVidia FX 5900 XT. I've never had a nVidia card so I'm not sure, is this a stripped down FX 5900 or is it like the "Ultra" version of it? Better yet...

I work at my local EB Games and we just got some Dreamcasts in on trade. I didn't hop onto the bandwagon when they first came out but I figure for $15, you can't go wrong, right? Anyway, here is my question, I remember reading a while back that some people cracked the protection on the Dreamcast...

http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/halo/news_6089387.html That's right kiddos, EA is supposedly remaking the greatest console FPS. They also said that Free Radical isn't involved. :/ Boo.

I've been trying to find a good MSX emulator due to the fact that the best versions of Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake are on that system but the only one I've found is complete and total ass. NuMSX is the only Windows MSX emu that I can find and it crawls. I've tried messing with the...

Okay, whenever I right click any image, whether it be a gif, jpeg, bmp, anything, it always targets My Documents and makes me save it as a bmp. I tried resetting my settings but it didn't help any. THe only way I can fix it is if I do a save target as instead of save image as but it's a bitch...

So I just started to get back to my roots with some good 'ole C64 emulating but I have a problem. After setting up my keyboard to be my joystick, none of my games respond to my button presses, well, except for one. oO Only Crystal Castles actually responds to my controls. Is this a known problem...

I currently have a 2.66ghz P4 and am thinking about upgrading to a 2.8 P4 with Hyperthread. Will I really see that much of a difference in performance or should I not bother? I'll probably be able to get $150 or so out of my current CPU and I've seen new 2.8's for around $180 so spending 30...

I've been trying to run disk cleanup on my computer for a while now and it just won't do it. It gets to about 12% or so along then it just freezes, it takes up all of my resources and freezes. I've left it on and running for over 12 hours once and it didn't get ANY farther. Any suggestions? :down:

It was marked as a Radeon 9600 at Best Buy on sale for 70 dollars after instant and mail in rebates, so I got it installed and it's a PRO! :drool: I guess it's not just the Radeon 9700's that were misboxed at ATI. I paid $70 for a Radeon 9600 Pro! I'm happy, with good reason, no? :bounce:
