Pac-Man Championship Edition DX

So I'm seeing an interesting competition starting to brew between myself, negative1, and BBH in this Xbox 360 arcade game... when it comes to the score attacks and the ghost trains, Negative1 and BBH definitely have the lions share, but when it comes to time trials, I've got the upper hand... (out o...

@DaLar: Sure, I'll take care of registering him.

@All: One week remains before the time trails begin! :)

Re: Time Trial 2011 player list

I'd like to be able to see the list of games before I commit but I understand why that's not possible in this type of format. I'll go ahead and sign up but I reserve the right to bail if I'm not enjoying the games. Thanks for taking the time and effort to set something like this up. I can understan...

Re: Time Trials 2011 introduction

3. The exception to rule 2a will be the final game, where you will have a 4 minute time limit to go as far as you can within that time limit. Whoever gets the farthest in the final game wins the time trials. whoa what so you don't have to play the other 4 games or something? 4. (1st reason) The fir...

Re: Time Trials 2011 introduction

Perhaps... Guilty Gear XX Accent Core? :mrgreen: Yeah... that's it... I suppose Gameboy9 has chosen a game that has been emulated in the latest versions, so unplayable in versions like 104 or 106. However, in despite of the recent emulation of some games that doesn´t involve a very powerful hardwar...

Re: Time Trials 2011 introduction

There's games I can't run full speed in 0.140 the same for Zid and for other players it'd be a pity some players can't play in a game because of wolf 140 GB9, think about picking up wolf140 Oh no doubt that would stink if the one 140 game can't be played by all. But as I said before, I did get a 55...

Re: Time Trials 2011 introduction

106... my bad! :( I keep getting confused between 104 and 106. I'm sure 99 would be OK too. I'm easy to please. :) I think four of the five games I selected could be played in WolfMAME 78, 99, 104, 106, 140, 1, or 1000000! :) The fifth game, however, will have to be 140. (games alluded to obviously ...

Re: Time Trials 2011 introduction

After further review, it turns out that one game, due to graphics issues, will require WolfMAME 140. The rest are OK on WolfMAME 104. The 140 game is running at about 550% speed on my CPU... now, that's on a quad-core processor, but still, I think I like my chances. :)

Re: Time Trials 2011 introduction

Well BBH, you do raise a valid point. Since many are in concurrence with said BBH, I'm pretty sure that, with some research I just did, I can just require WOLFMAME 104 and be done with it. I'll have to check and make sure of that though...

Well, I obviously don't want to get into too much detail, but I will tell you that there will be at least one golden era game involved... so I'll place you on the list. :)

Xbox Indie Games

Hey folks... Just wanted to discuss some other cool indie games I've run into recently: - Motorheat, from Milkstone Studios, is a lot like Outrun, except you just keep going and going and going until the time runs out. Oh yeah, and there are no brakes, just boost. :) - Breath Of Death VII: Humorous ...

Re: Time Trials 2011 introduction

I've updated the rules to discuss what happens in the event of a dead-heat tie. I also added an additional potential case for "sniping", and I corrected one of the suggested wolfMAME versions from 104 to 106. (I thought 104 was required in K8... whoops! :) ) Just an update... I have taken ...

World Cup Hosts 2018 and 2022

So I wonder what you all think of Russia (2018) and Qatar (2022) of hosting the world cup. I imagine that Russia can at least do a decent job, but I seriously think Qatar is a total shot in the dark. But who knows... maybe they'll throw the best world cup ever. And hey, it might boost the football i...

Re: Time Trials 2011 introduction

I like these rules! The only weak poit IMO is the "Whatever WolfMAME version". Are you sure that in a so delicate thing (comparing timing) it's goog to leave this choice to players? Hmmmm... good point Rax. I was thinking this way because I wanted this tournament to be a little more casua...
