Title: Stupid IGN....
Post by: jmoe316 on July 28, 2003, 12:55:10 PM
When i saw they had new movies for Mario Golf I quickly clicked the link. Then I saw they were Insider only! And they have the full FMV intro to the game!! I wanna see that bad cuz it's supposed to be pretty sweet, especially for an intro for a golf game! Anyone know where I could find the full FMV intro sequence for the game?? Thanks to any help.

The game is out today or tomorrow, so why don't you just rent(or buy) the freakin' game.

 Hell, I live in a town where they hardly ever feature any games like that! Darned Blockbuster! I couldn't even find PSO or Mario Sunshine here if I wanted! Cheers to the Internet!

If you're into anime, you'll LOVE bittorrent.  I'm the worst at explanations so I'll let someone else explain.

Bittorrent is a P2P sharing program.  It doesn't work like kazaa or napster...

Bleh...  I don't know how to explain it.  Basically, they host a small file that's about 2kb that has the extension .torrent.  You open that up, and it opens up bittorrent and starts downloading.  As you download, people upload the pieces that you have already downloaded, and you do the same to them.  It works for single files only, and the speed at which you download increases with the demand for the file.  It works best for large files such as anime episodes or ISOs.  Linux distributions are sometimes released in this fashion.

Clear?
