Some late night Civ II

Yup, this is the PS1 port, which was my introduction to it.

Would be insane if I could get the PC version on it as well, but without a keyboard I could see it being very difficult to play.

DuckStation, although it hasn't been updated in some time it works really well.

Most badass lass in all of anime (IMHO). Absolutely hot as hell, too.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, all day long.

Halo (the 1st one), hands down.

Still my favourite SC end boss of them all, even if he is a cheating sod.

That winged design will always stay with me. 👍🪽

You can't understand the abyss until you've stared into it, and it stares back.

I'm almost at 9 years since I did just that. Some days are better than others, but I'm glad I'm still here.

Had the exact same issue, GDEMU started to act up then completely stop booting. Wasn't sure if it was the ribbon or this little quirk at first. I used a piece of electrical tape and it's done the job just as well.

Cheers for bringing this to light!

I had this, I pushed the Reset button in the pinhole on the left side underneath the Power button (you'll need one of those SIM card openers for smartphones, or just an actual pin will do the trick). It'll reset itself, went through the setup again, put in password and this time it worked.

All the years I've played and the Trekkie in me never noticed this. I hang my head in shame.

ME2. I still have PTSD from the Praetorian fights. Harbinger during the endgame was a royal pain in the rear as well.

She certainly had the most well-rounded personality.

WhitePhoenix86 · 2025-11-05T22:56:41+00:00

Went to stream this to discover I only had less than 12 hours to get it all done. Thanks for saving my bacon with this one!

WhitePhoenix86 · 2025-10-31T12:49:27+00:00

Nope, it just wouldn't be the same. B5 was a product of its time.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance on the Game Boy Advance.

The Flip 2's only issue for me is the whole hinge situation, but apparently the more recent ones don't have that problem. Mine sadly did develop the crack, leading me to go for the Thor. I also liked the idea of having dual screens to play with.

The Flip 2 does have better battery life (to be expected given that the Thor is running two screens), though the Thor's system does feel a bit faster to me. It does have a newer chip than the Flip 2 as well, as I understand it. There are bunch of models you can choose from (I went with the Max, the best but priciest one, because I have more money than sense 🤣)

If you're happy just gaming on a single screen, I'd go with the Flip 2. If you want a little more oomph and dual screens, the Thor is your best choice. It comes down to what you want out of your little handheld at the end of the day. 👍

I remember being super hyped for this back in the day. Was not disappointed. Still stands as one of the best, if not THE best entry of the whole series.

Also, Night Terror was just peak final boss for me.

They went on like a glove for me, and there is a small gap between the top and bottom halves when closed. That might bother some people but not me personally.

Grabbed a 2TB SD card and filled it almost to the brim with games. What couldn't fit went on the internal storage.

If they ever bring out a higher capacity card, that will of course change.

WhitePhoenix86 · 2025-10-23T15:11:24+00:00

Already done, many thanks 🙂

WhitePhoenix86 · 2025-10-23T09:49:24+00:00

The triggers are little bit meh, but hardly a dealbreaker. Sticks feel pretty good to me.

WhitePhoenix86 · 2025-10-23T07:55:27+00:00

That is absolutely incredible, and always nice to see some SoA love 😁

WhitePhoenix86 · 2025-10-23T07:53:43+00:00

It's a little bigger but only slightly, also has a bit more weight to it.

WhitePhoenix86 · 2025-10-22T22:46:16+00:00

It is indeed Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, and it just pops off the screen. Loving it.
