One shall stand, one shall ball.

Do you have the forum set to not display attachments in posts?
Cause I'm seeing two of every attachment and found this:

Code:

when I quoted your post to see what as up, since the forum already displays it for me.

It's ok, they were probably aliens in disguise anyway. If it's not X-COM it dies.

I've been editing the posts so that once I put up the attachment I use its location in its place and get rid of the attachment, hence why there's a weird link. Should I not be doing that anymore and just leave the attachment?

I can see the attachments perfectly it's just for some reason I thought it was cleaner/better this way.

Are you still seeing both the attachment and the image tagged version?

Might have been things being weird on my end, then. I was getting two images but now there's just the one in your previous post so I guess keep doing what you're doing. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy.

Yeah I played around with Rebelstar a bit, not a bad game really but I never got very far.

Nah when I'm in the middle of editing both will be there for a minute I've noticed.

And ok, I guess I did know about it since I recognize the name. Never tried it before though.

you guys prolly know about the others like UFO: extraterrestrials, Aftermath 3 and such...

Prime Hunter

Yeah I've heard of those and played the a demo of the first once I think, but that was when it came out. Can't remember what my problem was with that one exactly since I never picked it up or tried the rest of them.

TGM, someone actually did make a thread.

for the record I was totally just playing around. all that talk about it was really making me think about maybe downloading it again.

Of course the same thing happens whenever tbob and ark wank to Heroes or whatever game it is.

Well, when you have people who enjoy certain games just as much as the Metroid series it's kinda hard not to be enthusiastic about any possible conversations relating to them. But no, it wasn't just you that made me create the new topic. I've seen it mentioned several times now because of how often we've derailed topics lately and I had something I could use to kick start a new topic anyway so I went with it.

But as far as Street Fighter goes, I haven't played any since SF4 came out. They've had at least one other version of that game come out since then right? (SSF4) Probably why I never picked it up in the first place, knowing they were working on a revised version of it. Kinda a running theme with the SF series though isn't it, the multiple versions?

They've kind of got the hang of it, releasing SSF4 2012 (or whatever fuck the upcomingest one is) as DLC as opposed to a full new release (though they dropped the ball with UMvC3, imo)

Speaking of DLC, Nintendo announced that the Animal Crossing for the 3DS was going to have DLC in its lifetime.

looking forward to it, I would have loved for them to keep adding stuff to Wild World. sounds seriously awesome if done correctly.

Prime Hunter

So they are doing a new version of SF4 again already even if it is DLC? Last I knew they had done SSF4 but that was already out. Granted I don't follow SF news that much so I probably just missed it. I'm more interested in Soul Calibur 5 right now anyway which should be out in two weeks I think. I just hope my main (Talim) is still in there to some degree because at this point in time there's been no word on her or her fighting style coming back. (Think there's supposed to be a reveal of some kind in a few days though.)

Never did play any Animal Crossing either. Kinda cool that Nintendo's finally starting to use DLC though, because there have certainly been games that could've used it in the past like Brawl. As long as they do it right I don't have a problem with DLC content for games.

SF4 has had 3 versions now, with a new one on the way. I guess the series is big enough and enough people care about the tweaked mechanics to make it viable to rerelease so many times with little extra content.
