I've got DOSBox, but Nukem doesn't need it.

Also, I'm really, really bad at Duke Nukem. I've gotta try and set it up with better controls, because the default of using keys for everything is killing me.

So, does anyone remember any really good DOS games? I've got a DOS emulator for the problematic ones (Windows XP hates DOS programs). I can't get some of them to work, anyway (poor Quake), but I've got XataX (a space shooter) and Duke Nukem 3D running without a problem. I'll probably grab Jazz Jackrabbit, too.

Anything other than the standard "Get DOOM!" suugestions, what do you guys suggest?

Did Obi drop off the face of the site or something?

Maybe he was just too gothic for this place...oh the irony.

He hasn't logged in since July.

I applied for a job at EBGames. Its a ridiculously uncool place to work, but two months out from the end of high school I don't think too many people will care if I have a "lame" job.

I'm gunna love it if I get it, though.

Hopefully it's better than the EBgames near where I live. It's like a cupboard with a smaller store cupboard behind it.

The guy's there are all wankers however. You know the type. The ones who are just that bit overweight, have their crack hanging out whenever they bend over to get your game disc from the BOTTOM draw *shudder* and start talking in a real wankerish know-it-all attitude about games when you don't know about it...

"When does Zelda Twilight Princess come out for Gamecube?"
"You have to pre-order it, okay? It's coming out December 11 for your information, but you have to pre-order it because it's only coming out in limited releases for Gamecube, and only at EBgames so you can't buy it from Target. Didn't you know that? Hahahahaha. Laughing time is over. Pre-order it."

So don't be like that Barmy, even if you are working for a complete "loser" store. And download Keen.

It is pretty funny when a EB employee is trying to get you to preorder something.

EB guy: "Hey, check out this list of games you can preorder while I figure out how to make change! You should preorder Mario and Sonic at the Olympics! It has Mario, and Sonic, and the Olympics!"

Me: "Yeah, I've known about that for three months now. Shut up and give me my charge station."

That was such a shit post.

Anyway, Jelar, we really need to organize an online PH match soon. Assuming you have wifi, that is.

Barmy man, try to be nicer to random posters. You call that setting an example?

Coincidently, I applied and was recently accepted to work in a game shop. It's called GAME. Yet we get old people asking for DVDs. It's great! Not to mention the oh-so-gracious 25% staff discount. But good luck with that dude.

So what does the 'EB' stand for?

Barmy doesn't set the example, example sets the Barmy.

EB = Electronics Boutique.

I always found Electronic Boutique shops quite grungy and they do seem to despise Nintendo. Frankly, it's blasphemous that Barmy wants to work for them! Have you heard from them yet, Barmy?

SlangX! Slangy! Didn't you use to be Siamese Dream? What happened? You came to your senses?

Yeah I find them to be a little anti nintendo plus their stores are cramped

They dislike Nintendo stuff because they didn't sell any of it for GC.

All the Gamestops/EBs I've been in recently have a huge selection of Wii and DS stuff, and not so much for PS3.

But in all fairness, the PS3 is powered by sadness and suffering.

More importantly however: SlangX, back from the dead? Or something more sinister?
