    There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

            I played Punch Out for for like 2 hours straight as a sitting juror on a mock trial panel. I couldn't ever get past Super Macho man using the keyboard controls. Fun CS.com fact: CMBF was one of the attorneys in the mock trial!

            BTW, most of these battles happened during my 1L year. By the time you arrived at the JRube, we were so over the emulator.

                It is the same 8-64 bit simulation. Source code hasn't changed. Even so, what you linked isn't new at all. This latest iteration has been around for several years. Just sayin.

                    My wife fund a pretty good deal for a XBox 360 4GB system for $129.00, and you get a $50 dollars gift card as well. So essentially you are buying it for $75 dollars.

                    I am a little worried about the space (4GB) and if this is even worth it.

                    Any input would be great. Can this system work.

                    TIA
                    Minecraft looks so much better on an Xbox One. Sorry.

                          Watch a few of the hundred billion youtube videos on Minecraft, then return and report.

                              The privilege of playing that stupid game is the biggest motivational carrot we have around here. It's kid crack.

                                Yes but don't try and convince 6-11 year olds. They can't get enough of it. My first grader has after school enrichment at her school where she learns how to program mods. She can now make blocks explode and kill you when you mine them. Pissed her 11 year old brother off.
