I play with my Opera Widgets sometimes.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Basically it's a game where you take stupid parts and make stupid things that you can send to your friends, only it's not stupid.

I'm guessing it works in XP, I have to go dig out the disc to confirm though. I wish I still had the big old box, with all the science-y stuff inside, all I have now is the jewelcase, the manual and the disc.

Hmmm.... it's from Maxis, eh?  That's usually a good sign.

Mwuhahaha!  Games are more fun when you buy them.  Somehow the code is 23% less awesome every time it gets copied.  :roll:

I just love it how you start a new thread everytime you have a thought.


I wonder why these pointless threads never get locked.....

Ah the ever so respectful reply.

Maybe we could make a Kitsune thread, where you could post to your littl hearts content, and save the rest of us to have to read your sarcastic remarks and childish insults?

mmmkay?

Nobody but you and someone else who I can't remember has a problem with these threads, so here's a great idea: DON'T LIKE IT? DON'T POST IN IT!!!

And btw, don't ever use mmmmkay. You're nowhere near as funny as South Park, and since SP is on the bottom of the humor ladder, that's kind of a sad boat you're in, Mac.

Did the subject line throw you off?  Yeah, it's crazy how these pointless threads somehow get overlooked while the overwhelming majority of other pointless threads get locked.  :roll:

I'm not getting into one of 'kitsune's lets bash each other' threads, sorry to let you down dude.  I was just sharing an opinion.  I only get a few minutes a day to check out these threads and see what the otherwise intelligent PC Engine fans are talking about.  It would be nice to go into a forum and not see 15 different threads started for no apparent reason other than to say 'OMFG EXCELLENT WIDGET BALL HAIR!!!'.

You know, maybe its just me, and the other guy you can't remember, but it would also be nice to see some interesting threads NOT get shit on by someone who feels the need to use profanity and insult others.

just my two cents bro,

I back Turbo Star 110% on this issue.  This board needs a good retard purge.

Kitten Kaboodle,wtf are you even thinking of posting my name on any of your lousy "free game threads for retards" threads. You like kick me signs stuck on the back of your ass or sumthin? I do not,nor would I ever play something you strongly recommend,esp if it has the word Widget and Workshop in its title. You gonna go play some Fatty Bear and Putt Putt next? How about Big Bird can Add? Anything you can nab thats free huh? I can guarantee you this man,if you actually spent more time buying AND collecting real f*cking copies of good classics and less time posting threads about free game o ramas,esp about suck ass crap free stuff,pop rocks and blowing stuff up, you'd :
A.have less time to post, 
B. have more fun and purpose in your life and
C. more respect amongst your fellow members here.

Also,as with Gutts and Turbostar,it is heavily noticed by me too that you just post random shit off the top of your head,like you don't have  a seal to keep that shit in. Post less,and make the post you are doing really good ones,really interesting stuff. If you need inspiration,go for a f*ckin walk that doesnt involve blowing stuff up or candy or Wal-Mart. Seriously,go for a long walk,walk to the nearest legit used game store you can find.

Talk to the workers for  a bit about the classics,subject yourself to the dust and just wander through it all for a bit. Buy some stuff,take it home,play for a bit,and come back,start a thread about it. Go from there. Hit the Nes,Genesis,Snes. Next hit Ebay,get a TG16,go from there. Bring some real conversation back to your threads,instead of just the nonsense.

Too bad Kitsunexus doesn't live in Seattle. I'd take him down to Pink Godzilla with me, buy him a CoreGrafx (or even a SuperGrafx if they had one in stock) and force him to buy a few of the "essentials."
