ROMs, Exams and Christmas Stuff

Posted by SoberMilk on Dec. 22, 2008, 10:19 p.m.

Its Christmas Eve Eve! Xmas is here in a few days, and I'm getting a PS3! Im getting the 80GB model with FarCry 2, Resistance 2 and 300 on BluRay thrown in for free. Its a pretty good deal. My Dad got my LittleBigPlanet and I know I've got Ratchet and Clank and The Dark Knight on BluRay from some other people. Once I have my PS3, I will own every current gen consoles. That includes portable stuff. You can guess by now that I am quite a spoiled little bastard and video-game-o-holic, but fuck it, video games kick ass.

I really don't deserve all this shit I'm getting though. Why? Because I totally fucked up my exams. These exams were only prelims, but its quite a horrible wake-up call. Pretty much my entire year did badly though so… I dunno, Is it my fault? Still, after Xmas, Im going to pull my act together, study more and stop fucking about. But AFTER Xmas. Im gonna just fuck about untill then though. :)

Now, I'm gonna do a ROM list because I feel like it, and because Cyrus did it.

Ive also included in PSP EBOOTs in this list. These are basiclly PS1 to PSP conversions. And yes, I know, Sega CD games arent ROMs either but they are the closest thing.

On top of all of them, I have a bunch of ROM hacks. But fuck that, I cant be bothered typing them.

I started to make this blog at 3:15AM and finished at 4:20AM. This is definetly the longest blog I've ever written, and I really need to go to bed. Im almost nocturnal now.

And why the hell did I just waste an hour of my life writing a list or ROMs? Seriously, what the fuck? :(

Well, Happy Chistmas 64 Digits, I hope the new year brings some new hope for this slowly dying community… See you next year!

What NDS emulator do you use, or do you not use emulators for the NDS?

ROMs are for losers, you make me sick*

*unless you own all those games.

@RC : I play my ROMs on an actual DS. I have a flashcard. :)

@Meow : I own (or used to own) about 30% of what is up there. I didnt even own a NES, SNES, Sega CD, Sega 32x, Master System or Game Gear. So go throw up. :)

I don't think that older console ROMs should be illegal, since they aren't being sold by the companies anymore.

SteveKB 15 years, 10 months ago

well I'm not really disgusted, it just that I don't like that kinda illegal thing. :p but it's not like I can do anything anyways.

Here's my mini ROM list.

Metroid fusion-owned

super mario galaxy sound track-owned

:p

I use NO$GBA since my ds games n music doesn't support ROMS and I'm proud of dat.

I also bought a playstation 1 emulator but have yet to download spyro ripto's rage (a game I play so many times since the memory card wouldn't save, that I kept playing until I got to a stage I couldn't beat :p I felt sad inside after leaving on for two days and only having to do one more thing that I couldn't do (I played it on my ps2 since my ps1 broke :p damn sony!)) also it what suck about my ps2 was that the ps2 disc reader was broken so I could only play this game :p.

I haven't gotten ripto's rage yet since it is in seperate packs and is quite large i guess.

I dont really think the companies care about the older roms anyway, RC. Making them legal probably wouldn't even make a difference.

And Meow44, I really dont have any regret. I own/have owned about 50% of the DS games up there and have bought a Wii, a DS, a GameBoy, a DSlite, a GameBoy Advance, a GameBoy Advance SP, ANOTHER GameBoy Advance SP, about 15 GameCube games, about 10 Wii games and about 30 GameBoy / GameBoy Advance games. I really dont want to give them any more money.

Still, I probably wouldn't care anyway. :/

SteveKB 15 years, 10 months ago

well although that's not as bad, what I dislike are people who don't buy games from companies who aren't doing well or have just sprouted into existence since it can really damage them. :p oh well

PY 15 years, 10 months ago

now get a real PC too :)

Sandwich 15 years, 10 months ago

I forgot about MediEvil, awesome game…

SoberMilk 15 years, 10 months ago

@PY : I do have a real PC. Ive got a pretty neat Core 2 Duo and a ATI HD4850.

eg - I can run Quake 4 on the highest settings.
