Many times they clip the length for pictures.  Don't freak out about the cord length until we actually see the product people.  I'd be more interested on how exactly it is used....

Nope, its still in the mail.  Hoping to try it soon though.

Amen!  I love that game!

Nintendo Gaming / RE: Progressive Scan: A bunch of Questions!
« on: August 22, 2004, 12:37:02 PM »
Also, not all progressive scan games mention that they are progressive scan.  Some you just have to guess.  Someone on this forum had a list of progressive scan video games for the Gamecube a while back, but I have not see it in forever.  A good bit of the games you have are progressive scan compatible.

Nintendo Gaming / RE: Can you guys help...
« on: August 22, 2004, 07:37:13 AM »
I'm attempting to accomplish a similar task, but due to lack of funds am stuck at 145 games.  I have a couple of the demo discs, 14 and 16, but it seems that you already have those.  Good luck man!

I know its old, but what does everyone think of the game Doshin the giant? I thought it looked like a good bit of fun so I bought it from someone in the UK.  did I make the right decision?

Better yet, trade in two games and get any preowned game for $9.99 and use the credit from traded games to pay for it.  Only at Blockbuster/Gamerush stores.

If you have a Gamerush Blockbuster Video near you and a video game you don't want, trade the game in and get $10 off a new release and use the credit from the traded game to help pay for the new release!

TalkBack / RE: EA Ships NCAA Football for GameCube
« on: July 15, 2004, 09:04:51 AM »
The game plays great.  I've been hearing horror stories about the PS2 version.  It supposed to have a lag to the video.    The gamecube version is well though.

Hey man thats wrong.  I didn't do anything to you.  I happen to like the name anyway.  When I think of the company I just think of Goldeneye and Conker and try to forget Star Fox Adventures.  Haven't really played their Xbox and GBA games yet.

21
Heh, thanks for the explanation.   Its probably just a US thing.  You actually have Blockbuster Video there?  I knew we were supposed to be international, but I thought that was a joke.

Nope.  I got mine at Wal-Mart.  It was $29.99 there.  I wish I had got it cheap though.  Where I work hasn't even received any.  Too bad, as I get 30% off this week....

Ruby's right.  I work at a rental store and that's how it works.  If you think about it though the games are bought for around $50 when they first are released.  We charge about $7 to rent them for 5 to 7 nights (depending on how new the title is).  After about 8 rentals of one copy the game has paid for itself and its total profit from there on.  Then, if the game doesn't rent well after a while we slap a sticker on it and sell it for pure profit.  That's a very profitable (especially on recent games like Spiderman 2, we can't keep that one in!) way to do business.  At least I think it is.
We do have exclusives in the rental business (at least Blockbuster Video does).  The game Freestyle Street Soccer, while not the best game, was a Blockbuster exclusive.  We sometimes have movies that are that way as well... (Shade comes to mind)
Usually we will get games in early and we are told that, unlike movies, we are to put out games as soon as we recieve them.  That's probably why Starfox 64 went to rent 3 weeks early (although I am not sure).

..Now, if I could only sleep...

i always thought that the difference was a slight, if at all resolution change (720x480?) and and change to the way it was drawn.  I don't remember though for sure.....  its been awhile since I've had the problem.

Yay, you're back FanGirl!  Thank you!  You've saved me a lot of money, or made me spend a lot... depending on how you look at it...
