I'm going to have to stop playing this game for a while.

I'm having a hard time enjoying trying to finish getting the rest of the characters/parts as it seems the game simply doesn't want me to do so. I'm sick of the constant Item Spam by the CPU's, when I think about it its not much better than the issue with Mario Kart Wii's Item Spam. Granted Cloud AIDS and Pow Blocks are gone, but Blue Shells and Lightning still doom anybody who simply wants to race.

I don't recall Mario Kart 64 EVER giving the CPU the Blue Shell, I think they got lightning but it was rare. Skip ahead to Wii and the CPU got the Blue Shells and Lightning more often than the other Items. Its becoming very hard to enjoy a game when all that happens is you get hit by a lot of items and all you ever seem to get is Triple Mushroom.

So I guess the best thing is to hold off on Mario Kart until Nintendo understands what balance is.

Bandai does good work, their X and Zero figures are a good example.

Wait....

Roll Casket got into the top 10?

[tornado fang] Trigger I'm voting for Best Roll.
Its a futile effort but I still want to see a good figure of her.

Maybe if Trigger wins we might see some other characters from Legends.

I keep all my boxes. They're nice looking, and in the case that I lose intrest in this hobby I can repackage everything and sell it off (Fat chance that will happen), the only boxes that are Missing their plastic casing are my Guren Flight-Enabled and Guren SEITEN, as those got thrown away by others.

I only have one figure that I've bought the US release of, and that is the Koto Megaman Model. That's only because my Japanese one crumbled apart. I don't keep that box with the rest.

They actually were sold out on three sites.

And because I already bought the other three in their Japanese Release, I didn't want to deviate from that with this one.

Doesn't Matter, shortly after I posted that the Preorders went back up on AmiAmi so it was all good.

Oh beautiful, I guess Video Brinquedo isn't done tricking old grandma's into buying their shitty mockbusters.

They should contact The Asylum and merge, they would be unstoppable in releasing shitty movie clones.

Un-[tornado fang]ing believable.

Zero is already sold out, his preorder has been out for maybe two days and its already over, the damn thing doesn't even come out till May and for some [tornado fang]ing reason Bandai can't just do what GSC has done for quite some time and produce based on how many pre-orders come in, stopping a month or so before release.

EDIT: No wait, I apologize. The Preorder started yesterday, if they knew Demand would be high for the most familiar version of Zero (Which they damn well should've known, since its [tornado fang]ing ZERO.) Then why wouldn't they be smarter?

Shame Bandai, you [tornado fang]ing suck.

Ah, Thad.
He posts on /a/ occasionally, a bit stranger than most.

That's the first time I've seen someone hug a frame, and not a body pillow like any other otaku.

One of his more recent threads on /a/ was of him unboxing a body pillow, so that's probably why.

play something other than sonic

I am but not enough to comment on it, but since you pointed that out I guess I might as well.

Lets See, I'm playing Wario Land 4 occasionally on Hard, just finished Emerald Passage, probably going to move on to Topaz or Ruby next.

I also rushed through Zelda: Minish Cap after putting it off for so long, currently I'm wasting time Savescumming to get the rest of the Figurines to get the Heart Piece in that building. I'm also looking for the last few Kinstone Fusions but since I only have 6 left and haven't been keeping track of who I've fused with I don't think I'm going to find them.

Oh Right, I'm also playing Kirby's Return to Dreamland in Extra Mode. I think I'm going to take a break with it since I just finished it not too long ago.

I'm replaying Sonic 06 to restore my old save that I lost.

Shadow, why do you suck at everything? I did the level without losing a life give me my [tornado fang]ing S rank I deserve it.
Silver, you suffer from being slow and boring, but I'm not having as horrible a time with you as I did the first time around, at least now I can not die when playing as you.

I'd say I'm about 75% of the way done with getting that unrealistic 100%, Shadow's levels are going to be the end to my sanity (and my voice, holy [parasitic bomb].)

Last Episode beat, going back into End of the World to get the last silver medal and the S rank was a pain in the ass, I had to hit one of those eagle statues to get rid of the [tornado fang]ing vortex near where I needed to go, however it was a small bit lower from where I needed to be, so I thought I would jump on the air rail to get back up, and then it vanished right before I landed on it.

Well then, that pissed me off, I don't think I'll be attempting that again for a while.

Posted on: January 25, 2012, 05:24:12 PMSeeing as I forgot about a Sonic game to restore a wiped out save to, I'm going to be rushing through Sonic Adventure, after which I'll be powering through to restore the 125 Emblems I had, then going through a grueling Chao Grind because the stupid store won't keep Chao Fruit in stock permanently.

I've listened to a single song that I have for 2 hours before.

Then again its a looping track, if it kept fading in and out I wouldn't listen to it that long.

Your hard drive could have died.

What I would try first is; open the case up, and take out the plugs from the hard drive. Make sure they're clean (blow them out) and reconnect the plugs. Then try booting up again.

That appeared to have been the case.

Dad took it in today so we'll find out if the Computer can be salvaged.

If that doesn't work, the boot order may have changed. Go to the BIOS and make sure the hard drive(or other respective device) is chosen to be set 1st.

If that fails, there's a good chance your boot sector is corrupted. In this case your recovery disk would've helped. There may be a possibility that you can get one off the internet and burn it off another computer if you don't have one.

I actually did try that (1st device for boot was Floppy Disk for some unknown reason.) And all that did was make the computer freeze up when trying to access the HDD.

Well if anything, thats great because Unleashed never ran a full 60 frames, I remember hearing that the 360 version tried to keep it a consistent 30 with major drops in Jungle Joyride, whereas the PS3 version jumped all over the place, in the levels with nothing in them (Windmill Isle Act 3, which consisted of a lot of rails) the game could clock 60, whereas Jungle Joyride and the Empire City Hub tanked at 10-15.

Of course this would've not been a problem had Sega ever ported the game to the PC in the first place (Hell, I want to see Sonic 06 of all games get ported to the PC, because that way Modders could rip it apart and finish what Sonic Team had no time to do.)

Alrighty, I've got a problem with the Family Computer in my house, Turning it on today, I was greeted with a screen that said:

'Reboot and Select proper boot device
or insert boot media in selected drive and press a key'

The computer appears to be neglecting the presence of the OS as if it has been deleted. I would assume all we have to do is reinstall vista but I don't think we have a recovery disc.
