It manages to make a DS Lite look portly!



Currently loading it up with goodness for upcoming trip - my entire Pink Floyd collection, lots of Genesis just to be deeply uncool, smegloads of Kraftwerk, all my Underworld (and I have a LOT of Underworld), several videos, every photo I've taken over the last few months, and it's still only half full; 16 gigs is plenty to be taking with you, and since my last two HD-based players both had drives that carked it, being solid state is a major plus point for me.

Work-wise, I'm now into the redesign of GR++ for XBLA. I already have it running modified for the different aspect ratio and working off the x360 pad as opposed to the mouse, and I'm changing and extending the gameplay; it'll be a much more involved game than the PC-only predecessor. I'm getting all the gameplay working first then I'll overhaul the graphics; we'll likely go for algo generated 3D shapes rather than the hand-drawn sprites of the PC original.

Eee! GR++ for Live Arcade!

Please, don't dumb it down (or stupid it up) for us consoleites. Those of us who actually -can- play games will thank you.

HUZZAH! So *THAT* was what you were working on! Delightful!

But...can you be alittle more gentle with the flashing text? Space Giraffe doesn't bother me at all (I find it soothing), but the flashing text in GR++ gave me a serious headache.

Aaw, half the fun of GR++ was all the CRAZY SHIT the game threw at me! But if you have some ideas for a fun-to-code 3D object creator, don't let me stop you.

NEW PANTS PLS

If only there were some way of incorporating custom sound effects, as swapping out the originals for random shit of my own was an excellent inapproapriate way of getting even more fun out of it :)

Just how much Underworld do you have, anyway? :)
Probably about as much Black Dog/Plaid as I have (and I have a lot!).

That’s really cool. You sure have you brain juice flowing to come up with such ideas. If you are looking for unlimited iPod music downloads, maybe you can try out the link.
