Re: New portable gaming device "Pandora" gp2x succ
I see now that migo already mentioned it, and that there is a vocal minority in the gp32x community who don't like the 'pandora' and want to call it "a piece of shit" before its even in production. I think I am the Pandora's target audience, it looks like the perfect answer for my needs. ...

FMVs don't have to be rendered in 3D. What the hell are you talking about? When they're played back. They're 2D images. Think about all the texture data that'd be necessary for EVERY aspect of the game to keep a consistent look throughout. You'd also be looking at a whole lot more polygons with spe...

For an in engine cutscene all you need are the commands to be sent to the engine. For an FMV, you need a crapload of video files. What's bigger, a 15min video file or a large text document? FMVs don't have to be rendered in 3D. Think about all the texture data that'd be necessary for EVERY aspect o...

Compare the image quality of cutscenes in FFX to in game. To get the same quality in game there'd be a whole lot more data necessary for the whole game. Where have you been? I'm here, in the present, when we already have many games that pull off FFX-level of fmv quality. If you actually see some ki...

Recommend me a NES emulator for Windows.
I've tried the following emulators, each has their own problem: Nessie - works fine but starts eating CPU cycles like mad and starts slowing down to less than 1/8th speed Nestopia - can't charge the sword in Crystalis RockNES - won't load the ROM Mednafen - since it's command line, no obvious way to...

If they make the same quality as cutscenes with an in game renderer, and allow that level of graphics throughout the game, it'll definitely go past 9GB. What the hell are you talking about? It takes more data to render something in real time than to have it pre-rendered and stored on the disc. No, ...

Screen size is probably a big deal. I'm also thinking it would affect how much you could move. Do the same movements with a screen half the size and the effect would be quite different. I'm not sure how easy it would be to program for that, or if it would be an easy plug n play affair. If they mixed...
