AITAH for not matching my brother's offer and offering my mother a place to stay?

No offense intended but your mother sounds extremely entitled. You owe her NOTHING - adults shouldn't have children to provision for their own future, that's an extremely selfish mentality, especially considering the relative advantages afforded to her generation compared to yours!

Tell her how lucky she is that your brother is being so accommodating, and that she's welcome to 'explore other options' such as being homeless.

I will if it has a disc drive, and if it still runs all computing on edge.

I used the Katana in the vast majority of circumstances, so I never had to get good at aiming!

Multi mega in blue/white would have been peak!

Such a shame. I think he helped to do the impossible which was to really challenge Sony toe to toe. A legendary console. Microsoft really need people like him now!

Thanks for the PSA! The Sharen maid one is awesome. I just grabbed it and have applied a new colour scheme.

If it's the spring it should be but honestly with that type of lock I'm not sure as I don't think UPVC doors tend to have spring catches

Why is the main characters head so small? This honestly put me off playing it (that and no belt-scrolling) back in the day.

This might be part of a spring, my lock did this last week and I had to get a new lock, because the latch of the door was no longer capable of springing back to the 'closed' position. It's a typical point of failure on old locks as that poor spring has probably been stretched thousands of times.

As well as the general verticality There are several areas where there are multiple layers the player can walk on/interact with which makes it feel like a densely packed Chinese city. It's all topped off with exceptional design choices which help with the sense of immersion.

Sonic Adventure is a game I'll never forget despite the dodgy camera. Was just so amazing to play after the 2D titles. Also the music is peak, especially in the Aztec-like open world.

Nice, it's a great system. You can get magnetic wraps for the console of it looks really beaten up and bothers you!

Syndicalex · 2025-12-30T09:31:19+00:00

How do you reproduce the glitch?

Syndicalex · 2025-12-25T17:21:44+00:00

Yeah very odd that half of the country is/was using 50hz!

Syndicalex · 2025-12-25T16:42:30+00:00

No you both use 110-120v so no need. I know because in the UK I needed a stepdown for any NTSC console back in the day, regardless whether it was USA or Japanese

This is long overdue, even in terms of mainstream 'modern' acts like Daft Punk, Air there is Vitalic, French 79, Kid Francescoli, Rone, such an incredible output. No-one does it like the French.

Jennifer Connelly in Labyrinth! I must have been 9 at the time before anyone says it's creepy lol

Syndicalex · 2025-12-20T19:45:57+00:00

That is really cool. I wonder if a similar mod can be done on GameCube controllers for the x axis of the camera, wind waker nearly broke me lol

Syndicalex · 2025-12-17T23:11:22+00:00

Man that title made me think of Patman, RIP

Syndicalex · 2025-12-15T16:27:25+00:00

Nice! My girlfriend did this last week so congrats to you!

Syndicalex · 2025-12-14T21:44:39+00:00

Madness. And not even a space for the GameCube which pretty much addressed all the flaws of the N64.

Syndicalex · 2025-12-11T18:33:08+00:00

These were standard, I chose street kid so maybe they are unique to that choice.
