I like how it also says:

See also: Digital Press

Apparently we're better than Digital Press. :D

Also, I like the range of sites they use. Bulbapedia is an excellent site and I used to use it frequently when I played Pokemon competitively. I think Smogon might've been a good one to have there also, however.

But yeah, look at us! We're pretty awesome to beat Digital Press.

DP has some great content, but their community isn't as helpful as Racketboy. That red on black design sucks to read for any length of time too.

Some of the articles on this site are top notch. I remember googleing for ePSXe settings to run Megaman Legends, and then I found a link to one of the articles here, and I was surprised I hadn't seen it before. It had the best settings I ever found on the internet. Megaman Legends run perfectly after that, plus I learned about custom texture packs for FF9 and other games.

Gratz racketboy community.

That's because they have some serious server issues going on (apparently fixed now)...

I've been pretty active at that site, too. I probably spend more time there, though. Was Assembler on the list?

I noticed Sega-16 on there. I like that site. I wonder if PCEngineFX was on there. That has easily the best gaming community if you are into the PCE/TG-16. Neo-geo.com can suck my balls.
