That is all sorts of fail. I have "up to 1 million dollars in my bank account" too. :roll:

I got one of the GameCube-GBA link cables today, and it's a shame more games didn't use it, or use it as good as Splinter Cell did. You get an overhead map that moves with you and marks all threats, an extra weapon, better/safer interactivity, and 5 extra levels if you had the GBA port downloaded directly to the cartridge. Ubisoft really outdid themselves with this super functionality.

There's not a single Single-Player game I feel like playing on PC right now. I have a few I could but they're mostly FPS or open world. :?

I love the connectivity for Wind Waker, makes finding those tri-force pieces with tingles help so much easier, because thats the worst part of the game in my opinion.

Would it be worth it to get the N64 version of Bangai O? Due to college not being far off, I see the Dreamcast as something I won't be buying soon... hm.

Game developers need to find a way to shrink games down to a smaller size or something like that, and soon. It's getting to be a big pain to even install games off DVDs, because there's so much data being copied it takes 20 minutes! And I can't imagine what it must be like to download 14 gigs over a DSL connection.

most of that size is just like art assets, sound, video, etc usually so I don't see why compression would be any kind of problem

Pfft, back in my day installing games took hours! And we liked it!
