But, still, it puts me at least a dozen steps closer than someone who, say, doesn't have that particularly monitor (someone, say, like *you*).
FWIW, I am starting to understand you now ... you don't seems to know that these guys didn't have actual cabinets in their offices and that some of them were coding on mainframes, then looking at the mockups and adjusting the artwork, controls and code.
Please, read a couple of articles about how these games were developed.
If I get a chance today, I'll see what is available online to present to you as proof, as opposed to things I have in print, seen in exhibits or gleaned from live conversations.

Shame on both sides.

Dude, I'm trying not to be around today. So don't make this guy explode if I can't be around to witness it! ;D

Oh, I'm sure that he'll do this again another time. I think this is the 5th thread that he's done it in already. ::)

Alright, I quit. I really really quit.
It isn't serving any purpose. I did like exposing the Atari 2600 myth and I do liken it to some arcade beliefs.
But convincing some is next to impossible.
I don't want this thread or other deleted and I wish some would not take my fever/passion for the material so personally.
Starting off with Beligerant Koolaid Man is not constructive and misquoting things and implying that I distinctly called anyone a Nazi or KKK member is more damaging.
But hey saying I have a Vagina is not as bad. I love them and wish I had one on my body. Then I would waste my time playing video games so much...I certaintly wouldn't be arguing dippy things like this where I accuse others of being pocket protectors and then proceed to act like the biggest nerd of all.
Aren't we all here for the same reason? I know I get accused of being a troll but seriously I just like to debate. But firstly I just get intrigued by the subject matter.
Arcade games have become a huge part of my life and most of my CRT debating is because it just isn't practical for my use.
With that, I will tell you what makes me madder then anything on this board. I don't care who likes it...WINDOWS VISTA can censored by saint. I am currently getting all my roms off the harddrive and as soon as I get everything in order, it goes bye bye.
Now for those that want to call me names after this post...cool. I am like Godzilla with little tank bullets and missles...I will eat them and let them bounce off of me. My real foe is that Ghidra that I like to call Vista! Glitchy mo fo..I don't have the patience, and I am not ashamed.
As for me "doing it again"...takes two to tango...wait in my case I got alot of partners...but hey I made this happen right? I was all alone. yeah right.

Yes I get it very much....the problem...the end result is still stair stepping graphics that were intentionally made boxy because its all they had. HOOFPRINTS not ZEBRAS. WORD

If someone's making book, I got the under on this one.

Oddly enough, I didn't mention your Klan reference. You did it the first time and brought it up again. Guilty conscience?

That sounds like someone you claim that you aren't.... And please reference the difference between arguing and debating. You aren't debating.
