Still, it's a good site that hosts ROMs other sites don't. Just fix those--^


Maybe its time to dual-boot.... :geek:

Gaming just isn't gaming unless it's on Windows. I dual-boot between Linux Fedora Core 13 and Windows XP Professional w/ Service Pack 3. :D Can't game or make my music unless it's on windows. X3 (Sorry, only comment that's off-topic, not hijacking the thread. lol)

Sorry off topic :typing:

Gaming just isn't gaming unless it's on Windows.


There are alot of Good games being worked on the are native to linux , sure graphically there a little dated but that should not really be a issue for anyone that uses this site :good:
I have about 160 windows games sitting on my shelf, half of them i can play through "wine" whilst only ripping half my hair out to make it work ( "playonlinux" is making things easy also). i basically boot into windows once a month and that usually to play Rome OR medieval 2 total war.

Sorry for the off topic :wink2:

Good content but can be troublesome to move about in; my registered status is always cut off when I leave this section for the downloads, hence I've no idea what's in your higher-end systems. Good forums, with a better than usual retro bias.

Question is though, should you have to rip any hair out whatsoever in getting your game to work? No. So, windows it is. Oh, and I've upgraded to Linux Fedora 14 alongside my windows. :3

I don't know how to vote this site, I paid the 10 bucks and still the downloads are slow and I cannot get more that one connection. If I'm downloading 1 (ONE!!) file I just cannot surf the website.

I feel riped off...


This issue has been resolved by the administration, Thanks, crusty.

Spikejones,

I do not know why you can only download one rom at a time. Unlimited users are allowed as many downloads as they want and the download speed is also unlimited. The only reason for this might be your ISP causing issues. Another thing to check is that you logged out and back in again after upgrading.

I am glad you have eventually read my response. Could I ask that you remove the other 'RANT POSTS' asap as people reading them might not necessarly see this post.

Thanks.
