a plead to be shot down

[CRTGAMER]

Out of curiosity I know your Avatar is an older 8 bit character, but where? Almost looks like Bluto in the Popeye Arcade. Or maybe a Sprite in Bagman?

hehe, I heard another person on another forum, ask the exact same, whether it was Bluto ^^

it's the main character from Rags to Riches; and old, old Commodore 64 game; I don't think he has a name,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rags_to_Ri ... er_game%29

the best game ever to face the industry; unfortunately the concept is long gone, since nobody wants to play a vagabond these days....

(that and the fact that the game has no "ending", can put people off)

You got me thinking about other C64 games.

Remember this one? Hey Taxi!



Or not Wizard of Wor but Wizard. There was also Ultimate Wizard Construction Set

!!!!!! NO WAY!!!
C64 was the first "gaming" I ever did! And Hey Taxi and Ultamite Wizard were my favorites! Along with the Streetbeat or Streetbox game (you walked around with a boom box), and some game where you flew through tunnels with a jet pac.
I want to play ultamite wizard again before I die...

With the current software (PHPBB3) it is not possible for the mods to edit your titles. Sorry.

Maybe in the future this sort of feature will be added. For the time being it isn't available.

Doesn't Grittykitty have a user specific title: "Forever 16-bit"?

I would definitely dig user set titles, but I do not know what that entails.

I have mentioned this before myself, being a retro site you should start as Next Gen and move your way up to 8-bit.

I'd rather move up to 16-bit, I always found 16-bit games more fun than 8-bit games. Maybe because that's what I started with.

He was one of the first members of the forum. Hence the special title.

Oh, I'm not questioning the validity of the title, I'm just wondering how he got it (from a technical point of view).

I'm sure theres a way. Or maybe its like Niode said, with the key word being 'current' software'. Maybe the older forum software supported it but the new version doesn't for some reason. Then again I know nothing about that crap, so don't take any of this as factual info.

It's funny, I actually speculated that as well, but didn't say anything because I too lack knowledge on the matter.

Maybe they could just be changed entirely. . . here's some ideas, from worst to best ranking;

Downloadable Content
Motion Controller
Gimmicky Sega Add-on
FX-Chip Worthy
Original Hardware
Wearer of the Power Glove
