    And how would you enforce that considering the wiki has been built from hundreds of people that have submitted tools and knowledge for free. Also it would be a bit hypocritical to claim plagiarism when this site primary function is hacking copyrighted material and distributing hacks.

    Professionalism my arse. That kind of thinking makes you sound like a Sony lawyer.

    A book being published and a video series online are quite different.

    Books are usually sold for profit, meaning they'd be making money, with no credit to us. This isn't really a pay-for thing as it is a guy just doing an online video series of various gaming myths. It's as innocuous as a YouTube video, only with nicely done effects instead of generic colored screen with grotesque font styles and colors.

    Trust me, I get what you're saying with professionalism, but... this is far from professional and really isn't worth getting wound up over. We're not in THAT desperate a need for getting our name around anymore, even if it's just the principle of the matter.

    Way to be 10+ years late to the party!


    Comments like these were rather sickening:

    and then there's information like this that GT left out/could have been more clear with:
    They ran out of time to finish what they wanted the level to do. Wasn't there an issue with raising the water level and having the Y-value loop back to the bottom of the screen? Maybe that's just an old theory, idk.



    And then there are comments like these that can be easily reconciled. We need to point them to Retro:

    This reminds me of when news channels first started trying to integrate the internet into their broadcasts, it usually just consisted of an anchor reading verbatim off of a computer screen.

    Comments kind of remind me of being a newb to the whole cut game content scene. Way back in 1999, 2000 with Area 51 and various Zelda sites (that later reconciled to Zelda Coalition, now dead).

    I spend my time at TRCF nowadays, drooling. I welcome all newbs who come here, too. Fresh meat. :v: :)

    We all were newbs once, right?

    This video reminds me of when we had almost no information on the subject. Nostalgia time!
