I tend to categorise all of y'all by your level of affinity to DinoRex (the game, not the user). For example:

Ciderman: Anti-DinoRex
Retr0gamer: Pro-DinoRex
The user formerly known as Sera: Pro-DinoRex
DinoRex: Pro-DinoRex
o1s1n / Andrew76 - I always picture the two of you to be ambivalent, bordering on hostile concerning DinoRex.
Sparks: Anti-DinoRex
Myrddin: Street Fighter IV

And so on. If you are not on the list, you have not expressed any strong opinions on DinoRex (or at least I am not familiar with them), and therefore you are nothing to me.

I'm anti Dinorex but pro Monkey Fudge!

So...anyone have a go with the new Monster Hunter?.

Yep, it's bloody brilliant and I'm offically hooked on it.

Ah i was wondering who Cosmic Smash was too !! Jesus this is getting worse everyday.

I agree. Down with this sort thing etc etc.

Was monkeykube not the chap who had a blog link in his sig? And he was dying for one of the GBA Metroid's to appear on Wii-U or 3DS or something (which it now has)? Or maybe that was someone else that begins with 'm'.

I could do with a sticky to keep track of all these username changes.

Spent a good while in this tonight on the Oculus Rift DK2. Pretty awesome I have to say

It runs a lot smoother than in the video(as I was capturing it via Fraps). Need a hefty machine to do it justice on the rift though.

As you can see, the arcade machines are actually running MAME and the SNES is running bsnes.

eddhorse · 11-03-2015 8:33am

Wow i think you win the frontend competition.

That is very impressive.

Guys can any of you advise me quickly please, can I pick up a tork t20 screwdriver in Dublin city centre this morning on the cheap? I know I can get the tiny tork screwdrivers in pound shops but can I get one of these somewhere? Wanna open my original xbox and give it a proper clean out today.

Any help is very much appreciated! !

STG.Otaku · 11-03-2015 11:11am

€12 for a 32 piece set. Failing that, any hardware shop should carry them.

EDIT: Apologies I meant this one:

http://beta.maplin.ie/p/maplin-30-piece-14-inch-right-angled-ratchet-bits-and-socket-set-a18qx

€5.29 and has a T20 in it. Should do the job. Head over to Parnell Street and pick that sucker up.

Some nice customisation updates coming soon as well it seems

Also, I decided to jump on the bandwagon and change my username(slightly)

No, it's "Steve X2"

I didn't want my new username to take up more space on the boards servers than my old one, so I kept it the same length(and format)

I'm going to be the individual non conformer simply by not changing my username.
I tell you, when O1s1n gets back from where ever he is he won't know what's going on!

Play retro games for Red Cross at Stockholm Arlanda and Göteborg Landvetter

With these famous arcade video games, we make our airports even more inspiring. We want to give our passengers a fun experience at the airport while also making it possible to contribute to Red Cross operations

I found out about it through this

Tomo.Murphy · 11-03-2015 9:48pm

Battery number 2 done :-D

Finally plucked up the courage to try my own copy of Pokemon Gold. I feel both happy and relieved!

Retr0gamer · 11-03-2015 11:43pm

Have everything booked for my trip to Japan in 5 weeks time. Can't ****ing wait now that that is out of the way!

A pretty big fan translation project was released recently. Miles Edgeworth investigations 2 has received the final translation patch. So far it's the only not officially translated version of the game.

DinoRex · 12-03-2015 3:43pm

Really enjoying Resident Evil: Revelations 2.

Half way through episode 3 and it just keeps getting better and better.

Lots of cool twists at the end of the episodes. And tonnes of references for fans of the series. Episode 3 has been pretty puzzle heavy as well.

Definitely a way better game than Evil Within.

More stuff like this please, Capcom!

Doge · 12-03-2015 3:59pm

Missed this last year!

Is there to be a full physical release?
I'll probably wait for that.

DinoRex · 12-03-2015 4:52pm

Yep. There'll be a full disc release once all the episodes are out there.

Think next week is that last episode. 4 episodes each with about 3 hours in them... Raid mode is pretty good fun as well though.

Game really looks like it comes into it's own in co-op... seems like they've finally nailed it.
