No. I was just suggesting HavenCo because the big selling point of SeaLand is that they answer to nobody. It was just a 'what if' idea. Sorry to upset you.
So, what would happen if you used gas instead of water, and had a dozen flints dragging behind the car on a distance/anti-wheelie bar? Now THAT would be fun.
Just call me Marv. This is the happiest game announcement of all time (for me anyway). Considering that Frank Miller has apparently gone insane (see DK2 Issue 3), this game should rock!
Two picks. Pyrates, starring Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick and a couple that inadvertently stars fires with every sexual encounter (The Frank Gorshin line is worth the price of admission alone), and Let it Ride, with Richard Dreyfuss and David Johansen (aka Buster Poindexter) in an incredibly charming horse racing movie. Both are really great and fun flicks, despite their cheesy nature.
I have an APEX (with loophole menu), and it does lots of jobs just fine. Perfect for VCD, Near Perfect for MP3 (The 8 character per song menu kinda sucks, but if it's a party, just set it to shuffle and leave it be), and great for DVD.
EXCEPT SPECIAL EDITIONS!
Special edition DVDs that have different versions of the movie on one disc (The Abyss, ID4, T2, etc.) are totally unwatchable. The Apex will repeat scenes over and over, or jump to parts of the film that have nothing to do with where the last scene was loacted.
Honestly, if my player didn't have the secret menu, I'd ditch it for something else over this one problem. I haven't tried any of the newer models, so they may have rectified it since the 1999 model. If you can get one of the movies I listed above and try it on a new model, do so. If it plays through, then the Apex is the way to go (as long as all the connectors on the rear suit your A/V setup).
