just tried to play goldeneye with one and two controllers. i just couldnt get used to the controls at all!

And to think those controls were at one point seen as the staple for console FPS games. They feel very weird now, going back. But some people still wish FPS games had Goldeneye controls instead of what today's analog sticks do.

Videogames have taught me that during World War 2 each battle was essentially won by a single man and that no troops would advance regardless of their rank without him first moving forward and clearing a path.

I have also learned that this man was the ultimate super soldier and glowed like neon because he drew the fire/attention of all enemy troops regardless of any allies that may be closer to those enemies.

While playing 999 I've run into a good number of awesome references including the memorable and timeless, "Well excuuuuuuuse me Princess," line that I'm sure we all have some memories about. Cheesy

This is the funniest thing I've seen in a while. For some reason I can't stop laughing, it just looks so over-the-top. I understand cars have G-forces when they accelerate rapidly, but this guy looks like he's aiming for the stars half the time. Grin

Why would you even need that thing to tilt up and down for driving games?!! Are all the hills at 90 degree angles?!
Entertaining to watch though, I can imagine flight simulators or space combat games in that.

I think they try to simulate the feeling of being pushed into your seat when accelerating by having the whole contraption tilt. It might feel more realistic when you're in it and actually focussing on the game rather than looking at it. I have to say it still cracks me up how the whole thing wobbles around when he shifts gears.

That is pretty funny.  I would love to see a more practical solution to replicating g-forces, though I'm not sure how it would be done.

Club Nintendo has a gold Wii Nunchuk for 900 coins.  I'm kinda disappointed that the cable itself isn't gold as well, but I'm glad to finally get an actual controller from Club Nintendo.

Spent about a hour pulling doubles off the shelves in the garage.  Found about a dozen doubles that I added to my trade pile.
