Sega Dreamcast to this day is my favorite console ever. So many unique games.
I always felt the Dreamcast had to most 'Arcade' feeling with it's games.
You can almost just call the Dreamcast as 'Naomi Jr.'
Piracy on Dreamcast was only possible because SEGA thought it was a good idea have a disc format called "MIL-CD" which is Dreamcast applications stored at the end of a Music CD. Those could have interactive menus/contents and videos playable with a Dreamcast. Because it's stored on the second session of the disc, the CD player (the main contents of MIL-CD discs are usually music) would never hit the Dreamcast data region.

This site has a picture with the eight legit MIL-CD titles made before the idea was canned and Dreamcast units had support to it removed.
Piracy was achieved by exploiting the MIL-CD boot mechanism to execute a loader which then would take control of the machine.
The games were protected against being loaded like this from scratch but obviously people had no trouble hacking them to bypass the protections. This was fatal for the system.

Back then, we didn't have Kojo boxed in a package either.
Those were the good ol' days.... King nobody.
somebodyloved.
I sense a poser. Yeah, back then, it was nice to be loved.
But after going over the emotional anguish over that breakup, never will want to be in a relationship ever again >.>
Not worth it. Mentally, physically, emotionally, or monetarily.... I'm not done...

Conclusion: Poser Wait, what? Is that what you are going on?
You are making the claim that I'm a poser (if you even know what that word means that is) based by my character name?
But you know what? Idgaff.

Guess that's my cue to take a break from the game and do some adulting.
Nah.

One of the best home console battles..
The Sega Genesis Versus Super Nintendo
Watched both videos side by side. Looked more like Nintendo ganking some lowbie than a battle.

What the hell, I finally get back on FFXIV and it kicks me off again after 5 minutes.
Damn it Kojo, stop trying to fix the servers!

:| Finally fixed my PS2, I put the system back into it's case and found some screws left over.
Going over the official Sony PS2 Service Manual, it's screws on the underside of the system to hold the power block board.
I had to practically take the whole thing apart to adjust the power on the laser and it was creepy doing a test run before putting the cover on the laser again. I'll map out the other screws to make sure I have them all and just finish this another day.
I still need to finish a SNES and then it's onto the Sega Genesis and Dreamcasts..
I know that. I serviced PS2s from 2001 until 2009 at a game center.
If you think that was bad to service, you need to see earlier units.

This was a SCPH-30000 series one, not so bad. Just the damn ribbon cable for the power/reset is around the one thing you have to watch for. LOL.
You used to work for a place that serviced consoles or Sony products? At an "generic" game center. So I would work game machines of all makes and ages.

That reminds me, I have one that I need to adjust still, I should do that at some point.

I'm liking Dark Knight more as a DPS than as a tank.
However, as a tank, I'm happy I don't have to actually use Grit for enmity control, nor do I need it for the -20% damage except on large pulls, or for heavy hitting boss fights.
Currently, level 43-44ish.
Had some bad experiences with derpy Astrologians and Machinists in dungeons though.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
