San Andreas was my favorite also.

It was the customization I'm sure.

Either this or being able to ride bicycles in the hood.

I do, can you answer my question now please.

He's inferring that you can jump higher off of one foot than two, physically demonstrated best by a basketball layup, which is absolutely and unequivocally correct.  Anus would know this if he watched basketball.  Which you should, Kai.

On this novella of a topic, everyone using a script like this should be hunted down and caned.  Except Anubis, he already has had 10 years of backlash under his belt.

You are wrong, I used to be a basketball addict, why would I make an analogy off of something I have no idea about. In my teens I was religiously performing jumping exercises to push my vertical jump.

Two feet will push you off the ground higher. Jumping has everything to do with your legs. Hence why players rarely jump off one leg for a jumpshot, because they need the elevation using both feet to get up higher. They only take one step jumps when they need that extra step to get to the basket for a layin or dunk.

Here is a video with Gerald Green, currently (to my knowledge) the player in the NBA with the highest vertical jump, look at his jumping technique:

and now read this little copy from wiki about vertical jumps, it explains why you jump higher with both:

An important component of maximizing height in a vertical jump is attributed to the use of counter-movements of the legs and arm swings prior to take off, as both of these actions have been shown to significantly increase the body's center of mass rise. The counter-movement of the legs, a quick bend of the knees which lowers the center of mass prior to springing upwards, has been shown to improve jump height by 12% compared to jumping without the counter-movement. This is contributed to the stretch shortening cycle of the leg muscles enabling the muscles to create more contractile energy. Furthermore, jump height can be increased another 10% by executing arm swings during the take off phase of the jump compared to if no arm swings are utilized. This involves lowering the arms distally and posteriorly during the leg counter-movements, and powerfully thrusting the arms up and over the head as the leg extension phase begins. As the arms complete the swinging movement they pull up on the lower body causing the lower musculature to contract more rapidly, hence aiding in greater jump height.

As you can see, to maximize height you will need to perform actions which are impossible to do while running and jumping off one foot.

Btw @ Wally/van: Let's not further derail this thread with basketball I just had to reply to this because it was quite an insult to me to believe I have no idea about b-ball/vertical jumps. xD

Anus, you are losing it man.  If this were true high jumpers would take off from two feet.  They do not.  If this were true long jumpers would take off with two feet.  They don't.  Either they havent been informed that they can jump with two feet and jump higher and longer, or you have been grossly misinformed.  And btw this thread needs derailing, and if we can make it about basketball, all the better.

I wonder how many great ropers of the past need to join in this discussion to beat the evil that is Komo delusion.

Anubis is the anti script.

Now he is, but I gave him about a full year of shit back in the day for using a script.  After that we became buddies    At least he finally came clean with it, most people have to get caught in the act first.  You know who you are.  Hell, Anubis got a hell of a lot more shit for cheating back then than people get now.

thanks for all the updates impo.  i think im going to make this the first day 1 purchase of a game in years.  looks like it will be worth the wait, finally giving me what i want.  i wasnt so much of a fan of GTA 4 as I was San Andreas because of the variable terrain and wide variety of drivable vehicles.  looks like there is going to be a lot of San Andreas-like sandbox design in this installment. 

(Insert Heath Ledger joker meme here)

im sure there is alot of game nerds here... ropa comes to mind.


but for some of us who dont know every title by its abbreviation, what is MoH? any game you played for 11 years makes me wonder if its any good... i like old catchy games, rather then all this new shoot em' up shit

MoH = Medal of Honor.  Get a ps3 or xbox and join the rest of america, avi.

welcome in eS, Walrus!

thank you sir.  finally some recognition!  eS for life.  i didnt know you guys were going to vote on my drive by trolling, thats cute.  thank you for your consideration, however, hopefully i can retry at some point 

just fair warning Fcrate, this and all threads on tus are subject to immediate off-topic hijacking at any time.  enjoy your stay, and if you dont know what i mean, you'll catch on real quick.

i bought worms 2 armageddon for my xbox its pretty fun to play with the non hardcore worms peeps.  worms ultimate mayhem was brainless fun, probably will pick up worms revolution eventually.  are they good games?  likely not, but good for a go once or twice.  was actually entertained by worms ultimate mayhem but there isnt much depth to the game.

MH looks great.  Cryengine 3 looks like an industry leader now, with Crytek creating a absolutely stunning Crysis 3.  I can't get over how good it looks.  I don't like fantasy shit though.  Give me a post apocalyptic game like Fallout.  Sure, skyrim is a great game, but i frown on wizardry

IBM Model M

yeah it was either this one or something almost exactly like it.  Got it for 2$ at a garage sale, best purchase i ever made.  its gone now though, left at my ex girlfriends apartment.

i used to have this awesome keyboard with huge deep keys, looked like it was from the early 90s.  Anyways, it had a springloaded space, which was awesome.  anubis had a similar one i think back in the day, maybe you remember me talking about this keyboard anus since ours were so similar?
