MindFeverThese are some examples i have. If any of you experienced the same thing,this could be useful.For some reason,whenever i want to play Phantom Hourglas (and im realy near the end of the game itself), i feel like "meh..." ...But i realy like the game ,dammit!I'm telling you what it is...it is that fucking dungeon i hate so much.Did it ever happen to you in a game ... It is like you play it... you come to a point (not an impassable point either) ,but then you rather look at the rom's figurine in the R4 menu and then you just turn off your system.Maybe it is discipline... You know...if you have on a flashcart something like 20 games. you dont finish one series of a game (i.e. Castlevania for the DS), but jump from one game to the other ...and only because there is 1 small annoyance in a certain game.Probably some of you experienced this : turned on the DS > FLASHCART menu > eyes scan the list of games > deciding in progress > after 5 minutes you turn the system offI have a partial solution to this: if you play ,lets say , Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow - dont load on the flashcart another Castlevania sequel of the series untill you finish the first one (therefore,you should play Portrait of Ruin only after you finish Dawn of Sorrow).I made a topic similar to this a while back..Totally feel you on this one man.. story of me and my ds's life hahaA.D.D. ftw xD
It should be a "treat" you give yourself after finishing a game.
Sure,you can have 20 different games... im not saying that you should have only 1 rom :) Anyway,this cured my problem of never finishing a single game.Sorry if the topic is a bit lame ... but im wondering if im the only one who is experiencing this.I am quite new to DS gaming,so ... maybe its just normal and what i said and "figured out" is maybe like inventing hot water :D (nothing it was already done).
MindFever · #25ADD ?? i dont think this has anything to do with A.D.D. ... it has nothing to do with concentration,since i allways have my attentioned very well focused ever since i was small.damn bro i wasn't expecting a psycoanalysis of my response , i was just summing up my problem in a nutshell heh :Pbut everything you just said, i agree with , society today is too fixated on solving problems with magic happy pills, we are breeding Future Drug Addicts of America :/Saw an article in the paper the other day about how the pentagon is worried about the rising amount of prescription drug abusers in the US... No shit they should be worried .. they are the dumbasses throwing every kind of pain med at our vets when they come back with even the slightest injuryWell doc a peice of shrapnel nicked the side of my elbow in iraq.. ok son here is a prescription for roxycodone 30mg .. now don't take more than you are suppose to because they are habbit forming there sonny lad.. Ok doc.. instant addict^ all my view on the subject .. hopefully none of you see any of that as poking fun at our medical system or our troops.. i know that heavy shit goes down every day and the meds are very useful to some but really.. it all sucksIts hard to put blame on a single group or whatnot but whatev... America has a problem.. I will admit myself that I even share this problem, I currently abuse pain meds like a dumbass, its hard shit to get out of man.. like an endless life sucking hole :Iwell i digress, ima go play bakugan battle trainer lol :I
Plus these "Syndromes" or "Disorders" are often treated with controversial medications...and the clasification and rehabilitation programmes that require certain medications are frequently suggested by the same people who sell these medicines.
I saw a comic book where it said a story about a "bad boy" who couldnt study (thank god i never had this problem). And then you can see smiley pills and medicines who tell the boy to ask his parents to let them help him. And then the boy takes the medication and is the most popular person in school,everybody likes him and his parents are proud.This was the single most sickening thing i ever saw. Modern psycology oftenly condemns medical treatment for people in the development phase.All the "troubles" can be cured by family interaction and time - but let me tell you this.If you are a parent who has no clue how to help your child and made some mistakes, what would you prefer to hear from the doctors: 1) Your child needs limits and has weird concept of life,ultimately reflecting on you as a parent and probably making you feel guilty. OR 2) All your child's fault are the cause of some under-studied condition that needs 1 magic pill and doesnt make you reevaluate your parenting "techniques". Plus,these drugs for A.D.D. and other similar disorders, often DAMAGE and bring to massive organ failures.Kids died from "unknown" causes of liver failure...
I often found out that kids with these problems has abusing parents (not necessarily physical abuse!) or their parents had other priorities that conflicted with the best interests of their kids.
Is there some kind of condition like that? sure it is... but not every single symptom should be categorized so radicaly.There...that's my laic opinion that can find support in reality. Please,correct me if im wrong.

MindFeverNaah...i prefer my keyboard and mouse. Also i am doubtful of the PS3 a bit. The hardware and the way it is wired makes developing games frustrating.Though i bet devs wont stop making games because of it.No...it is also the gaming library and their price. Most people i know have a PS3 for Blue Ray only.Plus you should have a cooling fan because certain PS3s overheat...a flaw in the system.The XBOX has WAY more hardware problems than the PS3 just so I can get that clear, and the library for the PS3 is insanely cool.
And i hate the fact that the Blue Ray controls on the joypad are different for when you're watching DVDs...also you cant skip the trailers.I will probably wait another year or so ,to see what will the market bring in the 2011. I am tempted for the PS3 ,i will admit that... i was looking forward FF XIII but as far as i heard it aint that good of a game.Post Merge: [time]1269279618[/time]
Oh i understand completely... very similar to my experience ;)
bobafett1136 · #35The 3000 IS NOT hackable. There is one way to do it with ChickHEN but that takes about 8 hours because it always freezes and only works about 5% of the time, so don't even bother with it... Get a 1000 or a 2000. :)It is HACKABLE. I got a PSP 3000 series and hackers are still taking a crack on it up to now. The freezing is a bit annoying giving you a fifty-fifty chance of actually getting past the official firmware but it is a one time frustration (8 hours??? don't exagerrate much, it only take seconds), they have already updated from GEN-B up a feature with recovery mode that won't delete the ChickenHEN when the PSP is turned-off. Updates are still coming so expect more from it.I play 2 games at a time, sometimes 3, to switch between games when I get stuck or bored from one game. Keeps me going because I get to feel new experience every time I play the game I played a few days ago.
