Get to the choppa!

Hearing that explosive sound effect and watching the baddies fly across the screen after executing an uppercut or flying knee is still one of the most satisfying gaming experiences for me.

Me and my dad played the fuck out of this game.

the control scheme was a bit eh in retrospect

but you're right -- the sound of the uppercut and the knee

the digitized whoosh makes you feel damn good

Power Pad...I have one coming bundled with this.

A fitness game where you build epic fattening burgers....

speaking of playing games with your dad; Pitfall:

We found all those damn letters in every level but could never figure out how to get the second to last L before the last boss...anyone know what happens if you collected all of them?

posted about it in the other video game thread but looking for any info on USB plugs / converters, etc... to use controllers on the PC for use with emulators. been playing vagrant story and id love to be able to use a playstation controller.

[echoepidemic]

just buy a cheap logitech controller at a second hand store

i have two

paid about $3

[Servo2000]

seems like a solid suggestion thanks

[echoepidemic]

i find them every time i go and i guarantee its cheaper than a converter. also is the same button layout as a ps controller

what's the easiest way for my to have an actual controller to oplay games with. sucks with teh keyboard. I can never get it to read my 360 controller. I have os x if that matters much.

[freecat]

install windows and play with your 360 controller then.

or you can buy: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/designer-s-xbox-360-wireless-controller-gaming-receiver-for-pc-white-grey-47380 for 12 bucks and install this http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver for free if you like your peripherals and want wireless

[youre sketch]

i already have the driver and, from what i read, I thought i could just plug it in and have it wired. I really just want to play n64 games.

could i buy a shit controller made for computers and configure that?

[doctor_doom]
