Post by: Jabba on May 10, 2005, 12:41:54 pm: I know I find myself on a select few websites every day. Usually have them open down below in my task bar...

Me too, now. I used to write for them and was one of the admins for the Tech FAQ project... fell out with them, barely go back now. I know for sure one of the mods of the Arcade Alley section lurks here from time to time, and I suspect the other does too on a lesser basis.

Say hello, boys.

http://news.google.com/nwshp?hl=en&gl=us - Google news. Doesn't produce content, just exposes you to a little of everything. Makes getting different perspectives and sources simple.

www.arcadecontrols.com - Obvious

www.bensbargains.net - Check it every day - usually multiple times per day. Good deals on stuff. It's like FatWallet, but in an easy to digest, easy to use format.

www.xbox-scene.com - Xbox modification bible - all useful info is here. It's the BYOAC of Xbox modification. Good news, great forums if you want to mod.

www.gizmodo.com - The best blog on the internet. It covers gatgets and robots and gizmos and stuff. The guy who writes it is hilarious. And you learn about all kinds of cool, crazy, amazing, zany, retarded, tiny, huge, funny things.

I also check out www.gamespot.com, www.rottentomatoes.com, www.hyperdictionary.com (every word in a definition is a hyperlink to the definition of that word), www.dexonline.com, www.imdb.com, and others on a regular basis, but don't have them bookmarked. I sometimes even go to www.google.com.

http://www.dcemulation.com/phpBB/ <--- dreamcast emulator site

How is Dreamcast Emulation doing these days? I thought it had disappeared. I'd rather not tread through hours of forums to get the 10c answer.
If you don't really need an answer right away its cool, but if you're expecting an answer quickly you're screwed. some nice guys on there but a few of them seem like they are more into making fun of you if you can't figure something out. But theres still a bunch of good people on the boards there. although I havent really been there long.

Actually, I was asking you. I see how you missinterpreted my question. How is the emulation coming? (The forum comment was an "I don't want to read a specific forum to get a generalized answer about the state of dreamcast emulation")
Sorry I totally miscomprehended that.

I actually havent delved that far into it I just check there to find out about playing nintendo (nes) games on the dreamcast. it seems like theres an insane ammount of people creating new emulators and updating them on that site.

Post by: DarkKobold on May 11, 2005, 12:55:51 pm: Oh, I thought it was for emulating the Dreamcast, not for Emulation on the Dreamcast! Last I heard the developers for Chaunakast were abducted by aliens, thus, development had stopped.

That'd be me! I ought to do less lurking, but I rarely have much to say. I do pass through here like every day, though.
