    Release new bare-bones web repo / mirror

    You cannot redistribute any releases that you do not have permission for from the original author(s). It really is that simple. I strongly advise you to stop your actions immediately, because if any of the original developers/publishers gets to know about this then you will most surely have a...

    RMA for cracked case and purple-tinted/artifacted LCD

    No offense, but Craig is not very fast at reading personal messages or email (busy man, I know). Makes me think I'll be waiting at least a few months to receive that replacement unit. It could be a lot faster if Askarus just fixed my unit and send it back. So if EvilDragon can just send me the...

    why not sue CC ?

    Surely CC will keep an eye on the official OpenPandora boards and scrape any info together that is publicly available. This is also the reason why OpenPandora will not speak about it in public too much, because it can seriously hurt them if CC knows too much beforehand. It was probably best if...

    why not sue CC ?

    Why was there never a signed contract between OpenPandora and CC? Did it cost $100.000 to set one up? However, here in The Netherlands an agreement via text on a silly piece of paper without any signings, or even just by speech, is already binding and will stand a chance in court if the proper...

    The Archos Gamepad.

    At around 150 euro it will probably steal a lot of the open source handheld market. It might not be perfect, but considering Archos has a lot of experience building tablets it should be good enough.

    Release NEWS: Dreamcast is working on Pandora+Video

    Up until recent, NullDC was the king of Dreamcast emulation as far as I know. And every game I've tried with it has not delivered me a genuine Dreamcast experience. I've got a Dreamcast myself with quite a lot of games, and really know what to look for when playing a downloadable version of the...

    Use a monitor with the pandora?

    A USB 2.0 hub with a separate power connection delivers all the juice you need considering the necessary USB power. Although it will affect the CPU/GPU/memory because video needs to be transferred over USB. Theoretically it's 60 MB/s at best, but in real life it's more like 30 MB/s or something...

    Use a monitor with the pandora?

    Why would you want to go crazy with all those converters when you can just hook up a Philips S-line, 54,6 cm (21,5"), USB-monitor (221S3UCB)? It has power and video via one single USB cable, and with the right drivers it should work out of the box. It costs about 175 euro.

    Release NEWS: Dreamcast is working on Pandora+Video

    Nice that it's possible in some way, but it has graphical glitches all over the place and is incredibly slooooow. Dreamcast emulation is not even perfectly possible on a modern desktop PC (tried different emulators and ROMs myself), let alone on a small device like the Pandora. Pixel perfect...

    Good films that are actually bad

    Nobody can rival the manliness of Charles Bronson. Chato's Land: Bronson looking ripped to the max at 50+. This guy eats Arnolds, Sylvesters and Chucks for breakfast.

    RMA for cracked case and purple-tinted/artifacted LCD

    If Craig could give me an estimate on when to receive the new unit, that would be highly appreciated. Community member Askarus is supposedly repairing Pandora's at EvilDragon's shop this week, so he can also confirm that my old unit came in last week. Edit: Today (August 31st) I've send...

    Good films that are actually bad

    The worst films I've seen in the cinema this year are The Dark Knight Rises (IMDb score: 8.8), Prometheus (IMDb score: 7.5), The Hunger Games (IMDb score: 7.4), Safe House (IMDb score: 6.8), and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (IMDb score: 8.0). In my opinion none of those deserve more than a 6...

    American version of the inbetweeners

    Saw the movie of the original show about a half year ago. Not my style of humor, and this "remake" is ten times worse.

    Psygnosis is closed

    The picture I have included contains the backside of European version of Uncharted 3. Great game, but the box is absolutely horrendous. Text, text, logos all over the place, some more text, irrelevant screenshot over there (with text over it!) and I can't even make up what is on that other...

    RMA for cracked case and purple-tinted/artifacted LCD

    According to the track and trace information, EvilDragon (or his legion of voluptuous OpenPandora maids) received the package today.

    Psygnosis is closed

    When you compare 80's and 90's box art to todays box art of so-called triple A titles I can only conclude that box art is considered complete nonsense by game developers and publishers. For example the backside of the box art from the European version of Uncharted 3 for the PlayStation 3 is...

    Psygnosis is closed

    Have many good memories from the many games (series) this company has developed/published: Adidas Power Soccer Destruction Derby Lemmings The Misadventures of Flink Rollcage WipEout And my experiences with the demo discs from Colony Wars, Drakan, Formula 1, G-Police, Codename: Tenka, and...

    Need to find new usage options for Pandora: else selling it and leaving the community

    SunVox and Seq24 are pretty quality programs that are also very intuitive to work with. But I already own a Korg TR61 synthesizer workstation with a Korg Padkontrol (MIDI controller) hooked to it, and have a Korg Kaossilator 2 (hardware pocket synthesizer). So I'm pretty much covered with making...

    Need to find new usage options for Pandora: else selling it and leaving the community

    I'm forced to carry a laptop with me at all times during time spend at school/internship. Which will take between another year to a year and a half. True. Everybody that ever saw my Pandora thought it looked great and fired away their questions on what it is and what it can do. I don't...

    Need to find new usage options for Pandora: else selling it and leaving the community

    The past few days have been really weird. First I was ready to sell my Pandora and leave the community as a long member, but then it magically self destructs the LCD cable due to some long ongoing issues with the cracked case. For me this was a serious WTF moment and I had some long thinking...
