| I was lucky enough to get a job when I graduated but have been stuck there ever since. Too afraid to leave and find a new job (not that I need to as its fairly well paid but not exactly what I want to be doing for the rest of my life). So I fancy a change. I have a few business ideas which I'm inter... |

| Loved Worms! My favourite is Worms DC for Amiga. Its got a lot of features from Armageddon but I prefer the older style graphics. |

| What's the sound capabilities of the gameboy like? Any characteristic sound? To me the 'gameboy' sound was like stripped down NES... but I don't think I was paying enough attention. No you're right, but that IS the characteristic. Extremely low bitrate sound. While sounds for a NES or even a SID ch... |

| Cool. Another Logic user here. Thats awesome what you did with the ES1. Tracking certainly is a big change but its something you get used to. I think the strengths are the absolutely mad effects you can apply to each note. You could do the same with Logic but its quicker with a tracker since you can... |

Very cool Pugly!
Some bit remind me of Take On Me by Aha. Very happy sounding, I like it!
What did you use to create it? Have you heard of Famitracker? |

| I'm weird though, I liked Wasteland better than Fallout :oops: Yay! I also prefer Wasteland. It seems to capture the post apocalyptic atmosphere a little better than Fallout (for me anyway). I like the portraits for all the different characters you encounter. I want to play through all these games ... |

| Yup, I'm well aware of that site. Awesome site, but everything is public domain stuff. So sometimes I want to read more current books. |

| Hex editor, wow thats hardcore! Ok here is what I do: 1) Take an eBook. If its a PDF then I use Adobe Reader's 'Save as text' option to export to .txt. I generally look for PDFs which do not have page numbers or images in them. Images are ok since it will cut them out anyway but it can take a long t... |

Theme Park. It was the first PC game we had bought. It taught me to put more salt on fries to increase sales of drinks 
Sonic the Hedgehog - pretty much started my interest in gaming all those years back. |

| Cool! Is there a specific app for guitar tabs/chords or are you just using txt files? Is the DS mic good enough for a tuner? I have a portable Korg tuner anyway, so I can give this a miss. I tried Readmore too, for the book view (hold DS sideways) but I found the program incredibly buggy. Sometimes ... |

| By using a flash card, it opens up all sorts of useful stuff. I just discovered DSlibris which is an eBook reader. Its a pain though because it only accepts XHTML files. But once its converted, it great! I've always hated reading ebooks on a computer, but on a DS it is strangely enjoyable. I also ha... |

They are advertised like crazy and you can always find a good one on offer in a sale. Well a sign of desperation to shift them? you only need to walk into a shop to see that they do se... |
