Greyskull Well-Known Member Dec 13, 2009 5,588 1 38 Photographer/Social Sciences adjunct/sweet sweet l Fort Lauderdale #5 Greyskull, Feb 10, 2013 It would be a no-brainee to me, but everything I purchase auto-downloads to my PC and I'm back to having less than 2gb free on my hard drive. I installed a 1 terrabyte second hard drive and attempted to move my itunes library over, but there isn't enough space on my primary hard drive to copy the files over (you need enough free space to store files in the hard drive's cache while the files are being copied. With Steam, I set all NEW downloads to go to my new, big hard drive. It was a simple task. Steam can use multiple library folders without any problem. This doesn't seem to be the case for iTunes. From all that I've read, you have to stick to the same directory for all itunes app dowloads. If anyone knows a way for me to redirect new dl's to a new folder, while having ALL my apps show up in iTunes, please enlighten me. ITunes feels like a media management app that hasn't been updated since the late 90's. mrbiggles Well-Known Member Jul 3, 2012 3,691 0 0 Like retired USA #6 mrbiggles, Feb 10, 2013 same here with Steam i also dump itunes to pc + external 1tb hdd, then it got full and had to backup all older itunes to Blu-Ray...because dvd-r would take too long then if i need anything older I direct my itunes to that dir/backup location. yeah itunes software/there media setup still sucks.... also when an app gets deleted off itunes etc, and redeeming codes you can no longer check if there valid without using it. MidianGTX Well-Known Member Jun 16, 2009 3,738 10 38 #7 MidianGTX, Feb 10, 2013 I'll probably check this out. The controls are fairly awkward by design to simulate the movement of skating, but it was always a little tricky even on Dreamcast. I've played the game a ton on various platforms so I should be able to tell if any issues are specific to the touchscreen. tops2 Well-Known Member Jan 21, 2011 2,067 44 48 #8 tops2, Feb 10, 2013 Last edited: Feb 10, 2013 I'm assuming you are using windows?

Connector Well-Known Member May 6, 2012 15,512 1 0 In the Chatroom http://thechatroom.freeforums.net/ #9 Connector, Feb 10, 2013 I really loved this game on my old xbox. Was one of my favorite games. That said, yes, the controls are difficult on a touchscreen. Some moves are very hard to do. But the biggest disappointment is the cuts scenes don't have full voice acting. That was one of the coolest parts of the xbox version. Reading the story text based loses a lot of flair. The game is not nearly the game I remember from the xbox with the above mentioned flaws and the graphics I kind of find worse, which makes it worse. The graphics style is a little different, better in some ways, but the great cartoonish feel is somehow not as good. But, with some of these disappointments, heck yeah, it is worth a buck. Is a totally unique game, has nice cell graphics, and is well made overall. A slightly flawed game perhaps, but I would highly recommend it for a buck! nightc1 Well-Known Member Oct 19, 2012 4,362 0 0 AL #10 nightc1, Feb 10, 2013 It's a good game.
