Some funky stuff there, Spud! (I see you are quite the Megaman aficionado!)

As an aside, I know most of the Megaman games inside-out (quite literally). A few years back I was one of the main programmers for the Megaman anniversary collection. This involved a whole lot of taking the original NES Z80 assembly code and writing emulation routines to make the ancient code run on XBOX/PS2/GameCube, plus a heap of code to emulate the NES & SNES sprite hardware. Fun times! (Even though that work caused me to hear the music from those games non-stop-9-to-5-for-two-years-solid I never tired of those catchy ditties!).

ALSO: Check out Shovel-Knight on GOG/Steam. It's a recent game in the style of Megaman/Metroid-vania/Duck-tails, and it's really fucking good. ;)

ALSO 2: A couple of nights ago I stumbled upon a YouTube Retro-Gaming channel you would probably enjoy. The thing I really appreciate about these guys is that they go to the effort of making most of their vids 30mins long to cover the topics with some depth:
GAME SACK



On matters of GTA-V'ness: Will folks be about this evening for some light-hearted heisting and murderous japery? My internet seems to have stabilised since last week's failed attempt.

I should be around and always down. Social Club may say I'm offline, I just disable it when playing on SP with mods Can just message me on Steam instead.

-Spotato- Very nice very nice. I resent the being an idiot for a Gamecube part. I still have mine with Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes. Worth it. Still got my Dreamcast too. We should play some 4x4 Evolution or some Un-offical Phantasy Star Online. Supposedly some Dreamcast games are still online. I need to crank that beast up and see if she still works. Been collecting dust for years now. She'll be 16 years old Sept. 9th, man they grow up so fast.

Yeah Nick, I'm a fan of most Capcom things.



I had a friend go to Japan and I asked for some Megaman stuff. He got me the E Tank. It has every game soundtrack in it in FLAC plus remixes from Capcom. It's fucking tits man. There was an arm cannon pillow that you slide your arm into. He couldn't get it to fit in his luggage.



He went to Super Potato while he was there. I can't explain how jealous I am.

The only title I don't have is Megaman 1. I've spent about 250$ on the other five with the fifth game being the most expensive at 90$ used from Amazon. I've played all the X series too up to X6. Played Megaman Legends 1 + 2. Played Megaman Zero 1-4. Never tried the Battle Network series. I'll have to get into it I think. Need to try Megaman ZX on DS as well.

Favorites are MM2, MM4, X4, X5, Legends 2, Zero 2 + 3.

I've checked out Shovel Knight in the past. I'll spring on it eventually after I beat some of the others I've got. Really into Nuclear Throne and Isaac: Rebirth. I wanna grab Darkwing Duck on NES too. Capcom hasn't let me down yet.

I LOVE that tin for the E-Tank!

MM2 is probably my fave of them all.

Capcom have made some truly awesome games. I'd love for them to continue the Ghosts'n'Goblins/Ghouls'n'Ghosts series!
Or make a new Black-Tiger!!1! (I spent so many pennies on that down the arcades when I was a kid.) I'm getting all nostalgic and sentimental just thinking about it. ;)

Sorry about my second no-show on GTA-Online. My net connection is working fine, but I tried all night and couldn't bloody connect to RS-SocialClub for more than 15 seconds before it bounced me back to Offline-story-mode, over and over and over. :'(
I'm gunna flash an updated firmware onto my router tomorrow and see if that helps.
