You're OTM on unskippable cut scenes, especially when you're revisiting bits you've already done to collect minikits or whatever.
Using the flip thing in flying is invaluable but I agree the control is a bit clunky.

The last GBA FF game I played didn't let you save in dungeons, I don't think, but you could "suspend" or something (basically worked like a temp save).

FFIII lets you quicksave at any time.

You're wrong. So wrong.
Today I bought:
GTA: Vice City - Disk so scratched it keeps skipping :(Star Wars Battlefield II - WHAT'S GOING ON? WHY ARE THEY SHOOTING AT ME? AM I GOOD OR BAD? OOOOO LIGHT SABER...The Warriors - Savage. Can anyone give me a clue how to spot the police? They are currently really pissing me off!

A) CanadianB) affected, it seems
TOTTENHAM + DOWNING + MADURO is WIN
If your GTA game is skipping, it might be the PS2. That game is nostril-rape on a PS2's systems (also GTASA, if I remember correctly, and to a lesser degree, Bully)

I just realized that the Guardia Castle music from Chrono Trigger lifts its melody in that one section from "Theme from A Summer Place"! Who knew that the Yas wz a Percy Faith fan?

Proof:
I cannot stop my brain/mind from designing a NEWER BETTER FASTER Genesis/Mega Drive and CD unit.
I didn't know jack shit about digital ANYTHING, really until about a month and a half ago.Now:How can I sleep without knowing what version of the 68k family I should be using in Enhanced mode?(68040 looks good...just looked now)How much memory can each chip address in each mode?What should the chips do in each mode?What changes should be made on the CD end?What VDP should be used? An existing design? Which one?If a new design, what features should be added?What about the sound unit? A new one is needed, but what needs to be done? Can an existing design be used? What patents are still held on X chip?
That's just the beginning. The easy part's the hard part(MIND??!!?!?):I need to re-design these chips myself/with help.FPGA. What chip/memory will be doing the re-programming of the gate array(s) to change modes?
Teaching english to people of two different ages, cultures, and native tongues, learning Chinese, and now designing computer actitechture.
This is one step beyond masocism. This is the brink of martyrdom...

Logged a shit ton of Wii hours this weekend with the boy. Nu-Zelda is amazing, the little surprises really make it (horse-back battle sequence that climaxes in duel on bridge over chasm, very Conor Smedley-esque melodic elements [HOOOWWWLLLL], walking on ceilings, etc). Also BOMB ARROWS. Hooray for fun!

"If it ain't b0rk3d, don't fix it" is obviously not their motto.
Still a great game, though.

I have no idea why someone would attack me for posting something ABOUT GAMES.Don't care....THEN IGNORE IT.
Or go play baseball with a brick up your ass, I don't care.
In any case it's no cause to insult me.

basically, I've decided than people in this 'forum'(thread now) are by and large self-centered mongoloids who think sarcasm is the greatest form of humour, fail to understand what the proper use of an in-joke is, and still lack anything close to a true sense of irony.As such, I could give a fuck about you, but it's too much of an effort.I'll just spit back the attitude spit at OR handed to me. I just don't feel the need to stand on ceremony.

"Sorry folks... I've had to remove the link to the download. Email from BizarreCreations: "We're beginning to feel the effects of the Geometry Wars clones on our sales via Microsoft now and are beginning a process to begin to more robustly protect our copyright and intellectual property. Therefore, I'd like to ask you in an amicable fashion to stop infringing our IP and pull the game 'Grid Wars' from the internet for download. I hope you understand and are able to do this without us having to take further steps."

Yup. I had to do that (on OS X too). The defaults were a rather eccentric resolution that my 12" iBook didn't support, and perhaps because of the hacky way its distributed/bundled you don't get an error message or anything. Just a crash.
My high score is about 250,000 (need to check this). I hate the red car things with the shields that follow you around. I love this game.
