PocketQuake Poll

[Mr Visitor]

Shame on you Mike, you brought the thread back on topic!!  :)

[Jaybot]

You take your quake a little too seriously 999 D<br>Like I said, I'm doing just fine and dandy playing lazily like I always have.  Even on the PC version, I never used the mouse for anything, all I used was the keyboard.. and eventually a gravis digital gamepad.. and now the digital gamepad and buttons on the PPC. However, if they installed a analog control stick (not the stylus, you know what I mean) on the PPC, it Might be a different story, but I doubt it.  I never used my analog gamepad for quake... never needed it.

tha's okay, I took it off again!

[Mr Visitor]

Thew!!!  Thanks Jaybot, I was getting worried there

Mike, thanks for taking the time to respond to this post.<br><br>I admit I went way overboard on those comments. There is obviously a market for all kinds of games, and the PPC gaming market is still young.<br><br>I know how a magazine/website works with advertising and newsworthy stuff. If it came down to nuts-and-bolts, I guess I WOULD rather see something new everyday on your site even if I don't necessarily deem it as newsworthy. At least I know I'd be getting the latest news when something important does come around.<br><br>I called games I don't prefer "trash". This couldn't be further from the truth and displays a simple lack of respect for the hard work and dedication that went into devolpment. I know a bit about programming games in C++, JavaScript, JAVA, ASM and VB- no matter what language it is difficult. Unfortunately I don't know a damn thing about programming for CE and GAPI but I can still appreciate the work it takes.<br><br>I truly apologize for any "inconsideracies" I have posted regarding JimmySoftware and PocketGamer (and anyone else I may have blindsided.)

[randall]

damn, look what you did to the formatting of this page!

[999]

Thanks for stopping by Mike, this thread just wouldn't be official without your input.<br><br>When I started this thread, I wasn't out to put Pocketgamer.org on trial, but actually pose the question, "Should PQ be rated in any such manner this early on?"  Things just kinda snowballed from there, and went all over the place.  <br><br>Pocketgamer.org has been a valuable asset to the community, and your work has always been appreciated.  <br><br>Now Jaybot:<br><br>You're damned right I take my Quake serious  I was ranked in Quake 2 and 3 for some time, and had the honor of scrapping with Anna and Thresh back in the day.  I don't like very many games truth be told, but the of the ones I like, I'm fanatical about <br><br>

[Mr Visitor]

Damn!, sorry, I thought it would wrap <br><br>Moose, if you havint been near the Green Shiney stuff today, could you delete my last post??<br><br>Perhaps I should register eh?

[Mr Visitor]

You had to did it, didnt you randall, not its right back on topic again!!<br><br><br>Oh, I think I may have left out a few tidles in my last few posts, I hope this makes up for it :<br><br>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br><br>[Admin Edit] Excess Tildes are causing page format problems<br><br>Last modification: 999 - 04/02/01 at 15:13:11

Randall:<br>No worries! You certainly livened up what I thought was just going to be a regular visit to this board... <br><br>999 and others:<br>Thanks for all the kind words and support!<br><br>And now, back off topic...<br><br> -Mike http://www.pocketgamer.org<br><br>

[Mr Visitor]

Urrgghhh!!<br><br>I think I've drunk too much Cider - im off to bed now...<br><br><br>I appologise for anything I may have slurred...<br><br><br>taaraa for now....

[Jaybot]

" Urrgghhh!! "<br><br>Was he puking?  I hope not... and waht's this malarkey about you registering, then you couldn't be Mr. Visitor anymore... I don't think I aggree with that.<br><br>999: Okay I understand.  So you were'nt ranked in Quake 1...?  But I know how you feel, ever played the Street Fighter II series (who hasn't?), well I was one of THOSE guys, the assholes at the arcade who would play for several hours on one quarter until everyone left me alone, so I could just beat the game (that's all I really wanted to do, honest).... but I never really like Mortal Kombat that much... so I understand.<br><br>

[999]

Jaybot:<br><br>Please don't go there.  Street Fighter is a colorful chapter in my life.  It brings up many a memory that just chokes me up to think about.<br><br>...Okay, I give in...<br>My career was founded on the Street Fighter religion, and was the perverbial "foot in the door" to the industry I love.  I've worked with some great publications since then, and have played a new Street Fighter (and Quake) with each passing year.  <br><br>Times have sadly changed since then, the industry is in a horrible slump.  Some are predicting another crash reminicient of the '84 crash when Atari was making more games than they had systems.<br><br>I'm currently doing work for , here's the last I designed for them a little over a month ago.<br><br>Sadly, that might be my last "hurrah" with the game industry.  Prima was just bought by Random House, and I'm not certain I'm willing to sign any contracts.  <br><br>Oy, back to the grind...<br><br>

[Moose or Chuck]

Hey Frank, err 999, whatever. Can you mention my name in one of your books It's in my signature if you feel like doing so.

[999]

Moosey:<br><br>I used to do that in my first books, but then friends started to think I was playing favorites if they didn't see their name.<br><br>Argh, don't do that anymore  <br><br>Sorry.<br><br>Special Thanks to<br>Capcom All Staff<br>& You!<br><br>
