My store got robbed, but the owner put the security video showing the fuck's face in HIGH DEFINITION online, and basically put out a bounty of $200.

Alas, this bounty is for evidence that results in a conviction for grand theft and the recovery of the items if possible, not the bastard's still-bloody head.

Video Game X 4 @ 3.99 = 15.96, after student discount $15.23

Also got a copy of Timesplitters 2 for PS2 in perfect condition for 3.99 last week. They also had Kelly Slater's Pro Surf, which is really rare, but it looked like a 2 year old dragged it behind their big-wheel, so I didn't bother trying to buy it for a resale.

no because I played Link to the Past when I was a kid capable of loving a game like that

today I can predict everything that happens in a game like that and can basically complete it in my sleep which means it feels like slow suicide to force myself to consciously experience it

and also because of emulators

PAL regions have it made as far as picture quality goes. PAL has better color fidelity, more horizontal lines, and RGB was readily available to PAL consumers long before it was made so in NTSC regions, through SCART...

But as far as media goes, they got the short end of the stick, since many hit movies are produced in the United States and many hit games are produced in Japan, both NTSC regions. So PALfags would get movies that are sped up by 4% and games that play 17% slower.

Can't win 'em all.

>implying movies and shows sped up by 4% didn't sound more exciting
>implying that 17% slower thing wasn't caused by people refusing to optimize the game since it actually went faster because it literally skipped 10 frames

I'm curious if there a PAL SNES game that actually used the whole 240p area instead of letterboxing 224p.
