nice haul Mike! Good to be home?

Had a long day, so felt I needed some good unwind time w/ PSO. I've been playing ONLINE a lot, so wanted to work on my OFFLINE game. Finished up some Cave quests, so now I just got the Cave boss to deal with... who is a total dick.

On the upside, I'm LVL22 and have some killer weapons. I'm killing everything in the Caves w/ two or three shots.

Ah Tokyo Bus Guide - I never got past the first two levels.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Really - I recall you gushing about the zany fun probably a year or so ago, that's what convinced me to give it another go :wink:

He's a pillar and staple in the dreamcast community known world around basically. I think some of the stuff is gifted to him from watching some of his video's.

It was awesome to see that last battle finally. Though I'm not considering the game "beaten" until I'm able to do get thru all the quests on my own Offline. Is it normal that we were able to take him down so easily at our levels? I mean, we were all 20's which seemed low?
Dark Falz's HP in all the difficulties isn't super scaled.

Phase 1 on Normal Offline has 2500 HP
Phase 1 on Normal Online has 4000 HP
Phase 2 on Normal Offline has 3500 HP
Phase 2 on Normal Online has 5000 HP

You think even three times the HP would be more equitable and make it more of a challenge. Offline will be the true test. Especially with you being a RAcaseal and not having Resta to heal.

Since I couldn't get the old iMac to run right. I gutted it. Put a 15 inch lcd and a Dreamcast in it's shell.

I saw this elsewhere on the internet, so I tried it. The only thing missing right now are speakers. I have issues with the VGA cable - sometimes white is replace with blue, red, etc.

^I had thought of that a few months ago Aaron. I was gonna keep an eye out for an orange one, or perhaps blue to mimic the "Divers" model DC in Japan.

SB, did you follow that other guy's plans, or just wing it? Did you take progress pics? Would love to see em. This was always a project I had in the back of my mind to give a shot as well, should I stumble upon an iMac at a yard sale or something.

Please no body destroys an iMac :cry: I still want to buy that model but they are extremely rare to come by around here and I probably need to match Bill Gate's networth to be able to ship it.

@SpaceBooger

why would you want the casing of an iMac for the Dreamcast? I would understand if you used its CRT but.. in this case you took out the monitor too. Are you going for the Kiosk look?
