Nintendo Gaming / RE: They got to make another pokemon

I always thought a fighting Pokemon game would be cool. Say your a trainer, you let out a Pokemon such as Charmander. The person your fighting lets out...Squirtle. You get to controll Charmander like using his moves, running jumping etc and have to take your opponents hitpoints to zero. You cannot use the same attack more then twice, or the damage will decrease by half. I think that would add a new aspect to Pokemon.

Too bad they don't have any of those custom Dreamcast cases. I have been looking for one forever.

Alright thanks alot guys. I'm saving up cash and will get the rest depending on how good my report card is this year. A friend of mine who built his custom computer spent around $1,100, which isnt bad considering how awsome it is. Almost everything on it is the most powerful hardware you can buy. He isn't building it himself though, he is having it built then he'll pick it up when he gets back from vacation.

Nintendo Gaming / RE: Custom Game...

Stimutacs you get that from Saturday Night Live? Anyway my custom game would be...hmm. It would be called War of the Middle Ages. You have the Nordak, Legia, and Redwar the 3 most powerful countries in the world all at war. Each team has 2,000 units on screen. You customize weapons and troops, and when your ready both teams will collide in a Braveheart style fight.

That and an FPS game where its actually realistic. Where if you get shot depending on where your shot is your damage. If you get shot in the head of course, you will die, unless you build up your miracle meter. The miracle meter will be build up as you kill other opponents in the game. For every 1 shot kill, your miracle meter will rise. Once full if you get shot in the head or anywhere causing a 1 hit kill, you have a 75% chance of survival. If you get shot in the leg or arm, you will walk with a limp etc etc.

I was thinking of it, but I don't really know all the pieces I need. I know a bit about computers, I do more on the networking side. I also build websites and images in bryce 5 and photoshop. Anyway where could I find a parts list of all the stuff I would need etc etc. Oh and btw pro is better then home edition with XP right?

Thanks that really help alot, I had XP before and didn't like it a whole lot, but I guess I can try again. Quick question for you though, do you know anyway that builds custom PC's? My friend in California had an awsome computer built with everything customized.

I've  been thinking of picking up NCAA 2004. Just because I dont watch college football only pro, and theres way more teams and features. For basketball I like the 2k series but it can get repetative, so I may go with the NBA Jam thats coming out, that'll be a blast.

Hey guys, I'm new to these forums and got a quick question for people who know alot about computers. For my computer that is running WindowsME (which I hate with a passion) I was thinking of switching to RedHat Linux 9 which you can see http://accessories.gateway.com/AccessoryStore/Software_316896/Operating+Systems_316946/Linux_316948/2268419_ProdDetail.htm

Sorry for the big link. Anyway its pretty cheap. I dont know anything about programming but does anyone know if its a fast reliable OS? It wont lock up randomly on me like my current OS, and is that the newest most current, or atleast a good version of Linux? Thanks for any help.
