My friend in high school swore that in Star Fox as they took off, he thought it was saying "good bye". :roll: :lol:

Having the opprotunity to try out GTA4 on a PC made me realize people weren't kidding about Rockstar doing a terrible job porting. Yikes, even on a rig that runs Crysis 2 smoothly on high settings GTA4 chugs on medium.

Yeah, it's pretty bad.

Speaking of PC gaming. I'm really finding that as much as I love it, I actually seem to prefer single player experiences on consoles. Maybe it's because with consoles I tend to be sprawled out on a couch and more relaxed. I find it impossible to enjoy multiplayer on consoles now though. Huh.

I agree that single player games are much more relaxing. Oftentimes multiplayer games get me amped up, which is something that I don't enjoy after a long day or late at night.

Virtua Fighter Kids seems to run at 480i.

Looks really nice.

If it uses the VF2 engine it probably is running in the Saturn's high res mode. I've never actually played kids though.

I am awesome at F-Zero/SNES. However when I play it on VC with the classic controller, the d-pad is just different enough that it messes me up. When I connect a SNES controller, even on VC, I'm back to usual. Whattapisser. :x
