now try playing it, after playing Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask?

Well I just wanted to say, that even tought there is an added value for nostalgy..
I have these cousins of mine, that never saw a Nintendo, a Snes, a Sega Genesis..
But their gamecube and their ps2 is now collecting dust since they are playing snes roms. |

I managed to know what flops is.
Floating point operations per second. You know, decimals.
So one that can do more flops means that it can be more precise. |

I don't know, I was never really a big fan of the x box but the ps3 was okay ( as systems) I have seen 9 x-box's fuck up, 6 ps2's corrupt data and stop playing dvd games, the only system that has been cheap and reliable with a great warrenty is nintendo, I have only seen one fuck up and it was because my freind poured milk on the damn thing, but the gamecube needs more third party games. correct me if I'm wrong but the X-box 360 is gonna be the worst console because I heard you still have to pay for online play(damn greedy bill gates) and the Ps3 and Revolution are gonna be out of the box y-fie. But funwise playstation is the best because of its huge variety of games. |

just to let you know, Bill Gates retired his position of CEO at Mircosoft ages ago, he's a chief manager or something
he didn't want to work just as hard, so he demoted himself into a easier position, so he doesn't really have the last call no more _________________ You're just a human being, my dear, sweet child |

Somewhere in there, you said you'd have to pay for online play. There's a "gold" and "silver" X-Box package you can get.... silver gives you a lot of features, and it's free.... but you only get free X-Box live on the weekends (if I remember that right). To get X-Box live all the time, you'd have to pay for the gold package. I think that one is monthly payments. _________________
