Can I get some directions? I am going to be traveling north on the toll road (I-355 I think) coming from Indiana. I am not awesome enough to have a GPS.

The VGS is literally right off of I-355 and North Avenue. It's just West of 355.

Yep Mathius, you are correct. The convention center is just 1/2 a block east of 355 on North Ave. I think Dan accidently linked the wrong map. When you get onto North Ave from 355, it will be on the right hand side.

SignofZeta: What a quintessentially PCEFX thread. Someone complains about nothing, multiple Bible-length posts discussing who's a bigger a$$hole follow. You're both pretty big a$$holes. Let's call it a tie.

Hehe, Battle Lode Runner is a blast. It may even be my favorite multiplayer game on the system. You should download the game on Virtual Console for the time being. It is not quite obey, but hey. :P

I am a Battle Load Runner virgin. I have played the Commodore 64 version (which rocks!), and the NES version (which blows IIRC).

Edit- I am referring to the original Load Runner. Oops.

The map loads fine for me. Could differ depending on which browser he's using.

I tried in another browser and this is what it would need to be.

There's two different identical addresses within a few miles of each other, just different cities. When I was looking at it, it was right. But it pasted wrong.

Unless you're playing human opponents that practice isn't much help, the AI just stands in the same place and runs towards enemies.

I was thinking of bringing my collection for trades or whatever anyway.  Would you guys be interested in me bringing my region Modded Duo along with a projector just for added OBEY!?

O_O?

That actually might be a good idea if you want. Neither of my Duos are region modded so any PC engine HuCard
