This is great, another one of my childhood favorites destroyed.
Though this run makes me want to see Keen games played through 'properly' with such precision.

Developers can do whatever they want is pretty much given. They can also do whatever they want with file extensions or with any other feature.
Anyway, since this is pretty much a farce at this point we can just keep the dry humour pouring in.

I haven't been following closely, but what were the plans for BH being the official emulator of TASVideos and gradually ousting all/most other rerecording emulators used here about? Is that still relevant? Because these ideologies don't mix well.
This is somewhat jarring to me as well. If you're pushing a product to an existing userbase, shouldn't you try to reason with said userbase? If this was "just another emulator" I don't think anyone would have objected much.
Also, silencing complaints (even when trivial) with 'not going to change, shut up' isn't really fostering a creative environment. There's also the thing with ROM databases that didn't seem very user friendly to me.
I haven't followed this closely either and anyway, I mostly just lurk.

Why are people THE INTERNETS making such a fuss over WiiU's graphical prowess? It should be more powerful that the current generation consoles which were released over half a decade ago (even without raising the price point too high).
I am sceptical though as Wii's game library is seriously sucky. Also I seriously hope they redesign their UI completely along with the internet-enabled functionality (friend codes, lol?). They have a lot to do if they want to catch up to current iterations of Live and PSN (and to lesser extent, Steam).

Everything by Simon Singh. He uses a lot of funny anecdotes and stories to spice up the science content (which isn't that deep but gets the job done).
My favorite from him is the Codebook, which is about cryptography. The collaboration book on alternative medicine is a bit weaker but recommendable nonetheless. For example, codebook contains the basis on how ciphers work and so forth, but due to their nature the history is littered with stories on real world usage of cryptography.

Extending to SQL we find Join Man with Join Hint.

Voted yes, don't really care about the camera angles. Then again, I didn't notice the camera work in the earlier movie as a factor either.
What I do care about is that it isn't a carbon copy of the preceding movie.

I'm just wondering how DLC can be categorized as a gameplay innovation? They are extra content, but I wouldn't call that a gameplay mechanic.
And furthermore, I would classify them as a subset of expansion packs/discs that have been around forever.

VS 2010 + ReSharper5 for me. I really like it aside from slight lagginess on my old work computer.
Now if we just could transition our projects to .NET 4.0 and get to use the sweet, sweet new features of C# like named and optional parameters.

Bahamut Lagoon is an SNES turn-based strategy game. It's Japanese-only but there is a translation patch. There's also a few mech-based games whose names I can't remember off the top of my head.
Front Mission?

Most glaring "feature" is method-based scoping instead of block based scoping. Lack of enums (though can be circumvented) and generics is next. There are other more or less annoying small details that you have to do or know that relate to AS and Flex. I develop with Flex so I don't know how those translate to pure AS-world. UI testing with Flash is also not in a very mature state.
Generics are probably coming (as Vector appeared with Flash Player 10).
For a game Flash is probably a very good choice, especially if you omit some parts of a more rigorous software process.

Flash actually performs pretty well for projects like this and has some pretty good tools available as well. Flash Builder isn't great for developing, but debugging works nicely with it.
Only real problem is ActionScript which is pretty annoying to develop if you know Java-like languages as it has some pretty annoying features.

Thanks for the new encode.
Pretty ok and a very impressive feat in luck manipulation and planning. So even though the game part was slightly repetitious (though the rotozoom-esque effect was cool) I give this a yes.

Also, I'm pretty sure it is against the general code of ethics of this website to participate in a contest like this using TAS tools. Even if, for example, Dolphin were able to connect to the Wii servers, it would be totally unethical to have a TAS achieve a world record in Mega Man 9.
Given Nintendo's track record in securing their services I would think that's not entirely impossible.

I don't know what you're referring to, but I thought I'd also express my anticipation for that encode— I can't wait to see Birry and Bimmy in action again!
