http://marp.retrogames.com has MAME replays on it that record the inputs of someone playing an arcade game (kind of like how Halo 3 works). You then download the replay file and watch the person playing it.

Since these are button inputs the game can desynch if it's not recorded properly or if the player cheats.

What a load of crap. Metal Slug 3 can be finished on one life. I've watched loads of replays where people do it.

I was fortunate enough to find the Metal Slug Anthology on HMV.co.uk for £7! That's Metal Slugs 1 to 6 for just over £1 each!

Get in!

I haven't had such a great laugh in ages, clearly the article writer has no idea what they're talking about with such a wildly inaccurate prediction. Chelsea for a quadruple and Spurs to win three titles? Do me a favour!

Other than that I think the article's spot on.

I believe you join a group so that you collaborate on folding proteins and you don't waste time folding sequences(?) that have already been done.

@Jack T

you mean the camera's been fixed?

Oh no, the PS3 can't play all Xvid files and the Xbox 360 can't play all Divx files. They'll never be able to fix this problem either because the firmware updates that added support for these formats was a one off and there will never be any more updates for them...

>well enjoy the game xbox owners with gold accounts

There, fixed it for you. Anyway it's not really a big deal, the gold owners will f cking well find out how f cking poor the f cking game f cking well is and the amount of f cking swearing doesn't f cking help it either.

I don't understand why they don't include the cable with the upgrade drive. It'd be like not including the power supply with the console. Sure, if you upgraded more than once then you've got two cables, but then again, how many Scart leads does everyone have? I reckon by now there must be two for each person on the planet...

>And the process can take an hour or more, warns the Microsoft website, even for a paltry 20Gb of data.

Must be using the same file copying code that Vista uses.

Hopefully they'll stick up a torrent, that'd be the most sensible thing to do

Just as long as they didn't take the original 480p and just upscaled it to 1080p...

I gave up on Alma, not because she was tough, but because the crappy camera kept shifting around and making it impossible for me to see her, resulting in loads of offscreen attacks or me suddenly running in the completely opposite direction.

To be honest it looks like the PS3 version has been recorded at higher quality than the 360 version. They both look more or less the same at this resolution so the only way to have a proper look it to record a 720p version.

If the game runs at 720p that is...

Brilliant, so now all HD DVD makers will need to follow Microsoft's version of the specification.

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

Here's Embrace. I give Extend 6 months.

Going to be 100s of disagrees for this, but the American box arts are always worse than their Japanese / European counterparts. Take Final Fantasy as a prime example.

Jesus, who is buying this? POTC 3 was the worst film of 2007, with the with film of 2006 being POTC 2.

@solar

France is recognised as being a super power (due to its nuclear weapon stockpile), so while people might not think it matters very much gaming wide, it matters a lot to the rest of the world.
