I'm not sure what game you watched, Frenchie, but a three one game isn't really a slaughter. And when one of those is scored into an empty net with less than two minutes left, does that mean Carolina was running up the score? Ah well, you know what, the world kept turning today even though the Oilers lost. I've been keeping to myself at work today so as not to listen to everybodies opinions on the game. Better luck next year, Oilers!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You sure the world kept turning, I could have sworn it stopped this afternoon for a little while. Seemed as if the sun had stopped moving, and the clocks were slowing down. Curiously enough this was around 2:30. On another note, I'm done school now except for my final exams. With regards to the game, I have to agree with Astro. Carolina showed up for the full sixty minutes. Edmonton was only really there for the last twenty and by the time that happened it was too late.

The only difference was that I wasn't nearly as pissed off this time when the Alberta team lost. Not sure why, but I guess it was the fact that Edmonton didn't end up blowing a 3-2 series lead... <_<

Was I the only one that was thinking EXACT REPLAY of game seven between Calgary and Tampa from '04? Canes come out to a two nothing lead through two periods only to have Edmonton turn it up and score a big goal, but are unable to get the equalizer. Except for the empty-netter, it was the exact same game. O.O

Yes, yes it was indeed awesome. :cool:

Probably the game you are thinking of, cause it did indeed rock! Metal Storm was indeed released in 1991. :cool: I was only 3 when it was out and so wasn't even born when Megaman 2 came out. Didn't really get into gaming beyond C&C until '98 when I really started building my own game collection, so I missed a lot of the classic NES and SNES games. Got to play a few like Metal Storm, Zelda, Mario and Secret of Mana on my trips to visit an uncle who had both a NES and an SNES. Haven't actually played any of the megaman games. I've never really been a fan of megaman for some reason. Just never appealed.

How about Metal Storm? Side-scrolling shooter game. Not a very long game, but I thought it was pretty fun. It had a password feature that would allow you to go back to whatever level you were at with your score and item selection. Not sure quite what you are referring to with the energy tanks idea, it only allowed you to take one hit. Two if you managed to find an armour powerup. There were very few special items and you could only use one at a time with the exception of armour. It had a shield powerup that would project a shield on one side of you that would block shots or kill enemies that ran into it. There was also a plasma beam that was stronger than your basic weapon and could shoot through walls. There were two difficulty levels however you had to beat the game once on normal before you could play it on hard. If you go through it again on hard some of the maps atually change a fair bit and are much harder. The coolest thing about the game though was the inclusion of the gravity feature. Your mech had a gravity generator that could reverse gravity on the level. If you switched gravity then you could walk on the ceiling and avoid certain hazzards. However when you flipped all the enemies on the level would also flip so say that there was an enemy on the roof above a spike pit, you could jump up and reverse the gravity to send him falling into the spikes. " Now that I think of it there was a final item that would turn you into an invicible fireball when flipping gravity that would kill any basic enemy and massively damage bosses if you hit them while flipping.

Wasn't Battletoads for SNES? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nope. It came out for the NES. I remember playing it with the old square NES controllers till my thumbs could no longer bend. That damn racing section was one of the most infuriating moments in my personal gaming history. <_<

Looks like Carolina hasn't even been trying tonight... <_<

Talking to yourself again I see...

JKLDFHKGKSBJIFSGIUFIUSGGFSNFKJSIHB KLGJDLZKFNLJKDHLGJKN!!!!11 How was the diving poke check? Nearly gave me a heart attack! EDIT: PISANI SCORES ON THE POWER PLAY! TORRES GET'S THE SECOND GOAL!

And that's uausally the point you realize that you remember that you forgot to save at any point in the past 3 hours...

I've got the game and it runs with only a few slight hiccups every 10 minutes or so on highest detail settings and I've only got a 1.7GHz P4 and a 9600 Pro.

Heh, oops. Missed that... *goes off the check again* If those timings are really important than that's probably the best deal you are going to get for CAS 2 ram. At least of the ones that I've seen. If you don't mind loosening those up a bit you can go up to PC4000 ram and pick up this for example for nearly $100 cheaper and should be better for overclocking. I'd look into it more, but my lunch break is almost over and I need to get back to school. I can find more ideas for you if you still want them once I get back.

I would advise against the Corsair XMS. Yes it is good ram, but it is highly overpriced. If you are not planning on overclocking I would suggest something like this. Much cheaper, but not quite as fast, although that doesn't matter nearly as much if you are not overclocking.

One simple question first. Are you planning on overclocking your system much if at all?

HAH! That's hilarious!

When Edmonton comes back to win this series, they will be only the second team to come back and win the cup after being down 3-1.

Short handed breakaway! I Still Believe

I believe! Pronger, Hemsky and Peca!

You are wrong.

Here you go.

Someone sounds a little bitter.

Definately a

I think it worked.

Yes I own it, but it no longer runs on my system, it's probably my fav RTS of all time, multiplayer anyways. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Works on my XP system... Make the setup.exe run in compatability mode and then the game exe the same.
