Right now, I only want to cry
I'm working on this massive simulation. Doing a job that should have taken me 30 min. However, I can only do one change at a time. One change, run the simulation, get results, another change, run the simulation, program crashes, close program, open program, one change... like that all day. All day. Really, I don't know what's wrong with this, as it's not even my simulation, but this is killing me.

The best simulation I've ever seen was F-19 Stealth Fighter on the Atari ST. Have you seen that one?
I crashed a lot but my mate and I used to take turns on the joystick and sometimes we'd drop a bomb on those pesky Russian SAM sites.

I liked that Sega one where you sat in a cockpit and it span around and moved up and down

I wish I was using that simulation
ans I wish I could play with a joystick and pass it to my mate when I'm tired.

F-19 Stealth Fighter was fucking excellent
I liked the little at the bar bits after missions.

I still have that game somewhere
I used to love it. Sadly I don't know what my father's done with his old Atari.

Never meet your heroes man, I played it on an emulator a couple of years back and it fucking bites now.

Yeah, I looked at the box recently and saw the photos
To say that computer graphics had moved on would be like saying Darth's 'a little on the effeminate side.'

Pot, kettle, black, I know.
But I haven't been here to insult the boy lately, and I'm sure he's missing all the abuse.

I think you can get it on the PC as abanndonware
but it'll be a pain to get working.

Yeah, I looked into ST Emulators briefly
after I found you could also download Captain Blood in the same format.

Unfortunately the only Em I could find seemed to require installing hardware and suddenly it seemed like too much effort.

I played that too, sadly it was utter shite
but I still enjoyed trying to decipher the symbols.

For me, it would be enough if it still had all the original music and sound effects
And yes, I know it was written by Jean Michel Jarre, but the title music to that game was superb. Partly because it used to scare the shit out of me when my father first bought the game.

You can get Gameboy emulators very easily
I was deprived of one in my youth, so I got Pokemon Red.

I got horrifically bored and couldn't find my way to Lavender Town.

Hello Noeley.
How are you? Apart from meh?

He's looking for Lavender Town.

I know that's the one with the Pokemon Tower, with all the dead pokemon in it
I know it from a rather funny YTMND. Which only makes sense if you've seen the Animal Crossing version first.

It's in Norfolk.
