  1. Re:And CmdrTaco can't play it... on Why Do Videogames Struggle With Sex? · · Score: 1

    If it's anything like the other interfaces of Slashdot, half of them are broken and the other half aren't working*.

    Even worst, HTML5 playback doesn't work anymore. Good-bye YouTube, Google is officially the new Microsoft.

    Ah, I see... had to delete all cookies which contained "Google". Next up: making YouTube completely useless by forcing WebM down our throats.

    And even Slashdot buttons look like crap now...

    YouTube is now completely useless. It keeps asking me to log into my account but I don't remember the password and it was created with a throw-away email account.

    If I click "sign out", then try to click on your link to view the video, it remembers my username and ask me to login again.

    The worst part? I deleted all YouTube cookies, so why does it remember me?

  6. Re:Gamepad options on Gameduino Project Aims To Game-ify the Arduino · · Score: 1

    Just because it uses the same connection doesn't mean the SEGA Genesis gamepad isn your typical dumb switches Atari-style joystick. It uses a 74HC157 internally.

    My point was that the Gameduino should have specified an interface from the start to simplify the whole thing. Some people will go with an Atari interface, others with a SNES interface, and so on... Games will be compatible on everything except controllers, which is kind of dumb since it's the easiest part to do.

    If someone could port MAME to it (for at least most of the earliest 2D games) and they'll sell thousands instead of hundreds.

    Is the Dingoo A320 powerful enough to run Neo-Geo games in native resolution with full audio at 30p/60i FPS?

  10. Uzebox on Gameduino Project Aims To Game-ify the Arduino · · Score: 1

    The Uzebox is another ATMega-based game console, except this one doesn't cheat with a big FPGA on top of it. They cheat by overclocking the AVR.

    One thing that seems missing from a quick overview of the Gameduino... what about the gamepads? They talk about video, audio, sprites, registers, etc... but nothing about controllers.

    It's around 1.30$CAD/litre in Canada. Which means 1.30 British pounds = 2.06$CAD/litre for you... ouch!

    Except that even "spinning iron rust" drives themselves have slowed down, they don't go up in capacity every six-eight months like they used to. Maybe parallel recording has already hit its limits?

    Could this also possibly mean external GPUs? I wouldn't mind something half the size of a Mac mini stacked under if it meant a dedicated GPU with its own RAM.

    If you go faster than that, you can go tell yourself to go slower so you won't get a ticket in the future.
