You didn't get the joke of "relatively free". Relatively speaking, free is free. There is nothing that can be considered free in comparison to another thing except for something which is truly free. Like.. Something that costs a dime compared to something that costs 599 US DOLLARS still isn't free, even in relative terms. The "stop making fun of me" part was in reference to my apparent lack of knowledge in the realm of logical relativity and the concept of "free".
Yes, I'm amazingly good with semantics. Don't toy with me.
As for emulators..
Been there, done that.
Currently trying to get somewhere in Axelay and the US version of Assault Suits Valken (Cybernoids, I think?). Axelay is just a question of how much I suck at playing the game. Cybernoids, I can't figure out how to get anywhere. I fall in the first level into a pit which seems impossible to jump out of. I noticed you can shoot up walls and such, but it hasn't made a pathway yet. And it's impossible to avoid the falling, from what I can see. And dashing seems pointless.
Yep, I suck. It's a proven fact.
UPDATE: Cloudphobia is utterly unplayable, because I lack a joystick. Happiness overwhelms me!
Gigantic Gear is hard to aim in, or maybe I just suck. I was laughing too hard throughout most of it. I mean, come on: destroying tanks and mecha with a giant semi-robot anime girl is absolutely hilarious. Especially when this anime girl is taller than the tanks.
Haven't tried Cave Story yet. Give me time.
I'm going to try Grimlok's suggestions now. Hopefully, best for last. I'm not too hopeful, though, I find that most mecha games playable on a machine like this suck big time.
UPDATE2: Happiness overwhelms me.
ATC-Raycrash cannot be downloaded (404) and you cannot register (See above).
This ticks me off. Bad. I mean BAD.
It seems like AC-style gameplay is out of my reach. Here, I throw my hands in the air and yell "I GIVE UP!" in the most exasperated voice imaginable.
