A significant chunk of 3D Blast's problems come from it being a bad 60hz conversion of Flickies' Island. Since Director's Cut was tweaked with 60hz in mind from the ground, it makes a far better conversion. As for how it plays in its original 50hz...

It's funny: the female damsel in distress ("damsel" is a unisex term) was cliché when Amy was first created. Save the princess... again. But nowadays it's so maligned that it's become subversive and rebellious to have the main girl get captured and need rescuing. It becomes fresh and original...

Old screenshot from 2.1. Back when Super forms in deathmatch were a thing.

I'm an oldbie who barely recognises this place now. Then again, last time I was here, certain political concepts weren't even invented yet.

While I know that the Software renderer is the one with more official support, and this is quite possibly a known issue, it's still... shall we say, vexing. To put it simply, OpenGL refuses to work properly with any resolution above 1280x800. The Software renderer can push 1080p and even...

The placebo effect helps too. It can be so surprisingly potent that it makes homeopathy almost look legitimate. Strange things about me? I bought a (pre-owned and somewhat old, it has a 660 Ti for Pete's sake) gaming PC, and I spend more time on YouTube or playing classic games like FFVII and...

And, arguably more importantly, he has the insta-shield, which completely wrecks enemies and bosses, to the point of making enemies with normally impenetrable spike barriers utter jokes. Making Tails the easy mode for platforming and the normal mode for combat, with Sonic being the opposite. And...

Well, it's 3D, doesn't have Super Knuckles in the vanilla campaign, and will fundamentally be an FPS/platformer hybrid no matter how hard anyone tries to squeeze it into a pure platformer. Only a fundamental rewrite of the entire engine would change that. And the classics wasted two buttons on a...

If, for whatever reason, you cannot set up port forwarding, try the -useuPnP command instead. But, as the wiki says, it's untested. So it might not work out, even if your network setup supports uPnP.

Password protected servers are a pretty good idea, even if you don't like the idea of allowing such things on the Master Server. Hosting without connecting to the MS is just security by obscurity, and if someone knows your IP Address/domain name, and the port you're hosting on, they could cause...

While I personally never had much of a problem with switching weapon types in the middle of a firefight - except when my inputs were simply eaten, I appreciate how difficult it could be for some people - especially in high-latency matches. This combined with the fact that the extra depth of...

Ah, Tumblr. Nice when it's not being a wretched hive of scum and misandry. But my avatar is the exemplar of laziness, as you can see from the 2.0.6 Knuckles, but I still don't like Sonic's playstyle in deathmatch or CTF.

I think preferring the sawn-off shotgun over the hilariously broken (except in competitive clan games) Gnasher in Gears of War 3 counts. (Explain to me how a weapon with no reach is supposed to counter one that can take off 7/8th's HP across a room on a near-miss? Spread is useless if you might...

Ah, this looks like something good to crack into. These kinds of permissions are sorely needed in SRB2. (Now to convince everyone ever to run these luas, and wait on that autoregister program - remember to check if it plays nice with Microsoft's EMET by asking for optouts if it needs!) And I've...

Methinks you missed the sarcasm, Knux. Just a thought.

It was one of those "Cool the first five times you played it" maps, that could have done with genuine adaptation to Match or Tag mode, but got used as a virtual playground by little kids who for whatever reason couldn't go to a real one. Then we all hated it.

Since a little before my join date. But I do miss the keyboard that I used with my old hunk-o-junk XP computer, which would still work, but the BIOS (not the hard drive, oddly) has futzed out. The keyboard's not even USB, so I can't use it with this laptop, like I do the mouse. (which is taped...

My mother's laptop runs Windows 8.1 - and once you give it Classic Shell to fix the nasty interface, it is a beast of an OS, front end and back, security and usability. Especially if it's 64 bit. And multitasking a separate player to run a music CD (or any other removable device, such as a...

I WON BY ONE POINT! I WON BY ONE POI-who the hell am I Chuggaaconroy?

A spiritual successor, huh? It might end up being Banjo-Threeie with the serial numbers filed off.
