Nice! That's the first instance of ":B" I've seen on this forum. You're my hero, Bromithia.

Anyways, the PC version runs faster than the PS1 version and the graphics are smoother, so I don't expect to ever go back to playing it on my PS2. Now if only they'd release FF9 for PC!! SADHUHDSAIUDHSAIU

(but I know that'll never happen)

I'm afraid I'll run into a whole lotta problems since I'm on Vista, though.

My PC is some 2-3 years old as is and FF8 didn't run fine. I had to use the software rendering and I'm not sure if the sound was running 100% too.
(But it was surely playable)

I remember trying to run Final Fantasy VII on Vista. There are a few tutorials around the internet, but it's so much trouble trying to get it to run it's just not worth it. I got to the point where I could get to the menu and hear the music and the hand moving up and down but I couldn't see anything. I still have the PSOne discs for all 3 games so I'll probably just use ePSXe at some point. Is it a simple case of disc-in-tray, load program and I'm off!?

Well there is an initial setup required but it's mainly just picking the plugins and such, but it's like 30 seconds and your away.

Vista doesn't go well with many games, which doesn't bother me, because I didn't buy it with playing games in mind, so whatever.

I played the AC/DC Track pack with my friends yesterday. I think I never had more fun with rockband than on this evening. Every instrument sounds and plays great and the overall song are practically the definition of rock.
And the singing was more exhausting than playing the drums. But more fun than ever

Oh man, that sounds so fun! I love that AC/DC Live At Donington they did back in '91. That's where the tracks are from, right? If so, that sounds like one hell of a party night!

Anybody here play Soul Calibur IV? I haven't seen anybody talk about it unless I've been skipping all of the messages that mention it. I own it for PS3 and I am completely addicted to it. Especially the online play. When I'm not working or in class I'm pretty much playing this game.

If anybody's interested in a match my username is Waltz_and_Forte. But be warned, I am probably not as good as you!

My win record is something like 11-53. Not terribly impressive but I'm still trying to get used to playing competitively.

When I get home I'm going to play Rock Band until my hand can't form chords anymore and then I'll play Fallout 3 until I pass out on the keyboard. I hope the jetlag isn't too bad.
