    Kaladesh (MTG) Prerelase was fun.

    Just got back. I'd recommend checking it out. It's aesthetically consistent and interesting, sort of like Innistrad (original), or Lorwyn. There's also something bad ass about gremlins riding a giant train of DOOM! Google it, go to a store, play in a pre-release or draft. :)

    Bone cancer is a horrible way to die.

    Was over a man's place watching him die. Can't sit up, straw-fed water by his daughter; hands clasping and moaning 'god no' or 'no' every fifteen minutes when lucid, and every 2-3 hours when not. Didn't know they could give morphine orally. Though he only wanted a little bit. Didn't want to...

    Drafted Eldrich Moon (Magic) my thoughts...

    Eldrich moon is part of the "Return to innistrad" theme. So, I loved the original Innistrad, it was fun to draft, every pack had cards that made me laugh my ass off, or were just plain cool and thematic. So... the original was more traditional universal movie horror schtick. And it worked...

    Anyone ever go to the Arcade in Spring Lake (Rhode Island)

    It apparently has really old antique pinball machines and penny games. I recall being there a few times, but never had any money. So the only machine that ever stuck out to me was the X-Men one. Would just stand there and watch people play until my Dad whacked me upside the head and dragged me...

    Favorite Civilization series and civ to play?

    What is your favorite Civilization game in the series? (Each one upended the table so to speak) And... this is especially relevant in later games, what civ/leader do you like to play? I actually like Civ V, well with the two expansions. It has its flaws (I miss polution, and culture nabbing...

    Would you open up an Action Comics #1?

    Something amusing to contemplate: Would you open up an Action Comics #1? Those comics are fragile as fuck, so probably not. Anybody that's actually held one and read it without any consideration of it being valuable are dead or almost dead. Consider how lucky we are that we have first hand...

    Whats the cutoff for you.... how many high quality games does a good console make?

    How many high quality games puts a console past the threshold from failure/bad to good/worth buying? For me its probably 1. I have no problem owning a single amazing game for a console system, if that game is awesome.

    Shooters or Fighters.

    So what do you prefer shooters or fighting games? Me? I prefer shooters, especially the Salamander/Life Force/Gradius kind. I feel it rewards better play with each iteration of getting my ass kicked.

    Dead or Alive 5: What skills should I look at improving next?

    So I've managed to get good enough with Hitomi to get up to the second to last difficulty in Arcade (working on that one presently). I'm focusing on Hitomi right now, so question: Should I keep trying to get the timing right to do counter throws, or learn other characters? Thanks.

    Question: If a Neo-Geo CD can play CD-R, can you burn mvs or aes roms to it?

    NGCD is similar to the AES right, so has anyone tried burning a AES rom to a CD-R and seeing if the NGCD will load it?

    Is anyone just getting FE: Fates Conquest?

    I missed out on getting the Special Edition. After reading reviews it looks like both Birthright and Revelation are going to be more like Awakening. So I went and grabbed Conquest. I figure if I really, really like it I can go and grab the DLC. So how many managed to get the SE ? How many are...

    n00b question: WTF are these things called?

    So, I'm looking at the encoder board on the Jamma-Nation PDF supergun howto. So what is this called? I also take it there is a female connector that plugs into this right? Hence if someone would please enlighten this poor n00b as to what the term for it is, so I can search the interwebs for...

    Rot is it possible to allow unlimted editing of collection gallery posts?

    In this context it seems more polite to just have everything (photos) etc on the first post so folks don't have to scroll through the comments to see updates. The time limit is understandable in every other context.

    How bad are the loading times for Neo Geo CDZ Last Blade 2.

    Just wondering, considering the AES ver. is on ebay for around $700 and MVS ver. seems to be around $300 on ebay. While for CD I have found it as low as $50 to $120.

    Does the 360 have good non-bullet-hell shooters (Retail)?

    Everywhere I've looked in terms of 360 shooters is all about the Cave style Bullet-Hell shooters. I got a few of those (Might even get Bug Princess), but for the sake of variety wanted to know if I missed any Gradius style non-bullet hell shooters, so far I can only think of: Otomedius...

    Random question: how much soldering is actually involved in a cmvs build?

    I was reading: http://www.jamma-nation-x.com/jammax/files/supergunbuild.pdf And looking at various parts it listed online. When building this, do you solder all the wires into it, or is it like a breadboard where you just stick the wires in. That's at least what the DB-15 parts seem to...
