...Fuck this to hell. How could I have ignored this text? Probably because I let another's imitated nobility drop my standpoint. So, after I reply to this, I'll just wait for a moderator to show how good I am at getting threads closed and their abusiveness.
One of the reasons I can presume your list is invalid is because some of the games you said were playable on Glide64 more than Jabo's (ex. Mahjongg Hiroku Classic) also had another plugin such as Rice's listed on BigHead's list. This shows that Rice's and Glide emulate the game, whereas if one DirectX and one OpenGL plugin can emulate it without issues, this shows that several DirectX and OpenGL plugins can emulate it to a playable state, though not always without issues. I think you're either defining playable as 'perfectly emulated' or in terms of "issue freedom". Playable means you can play it, not Oh damn, Rice's plugin has a white spec at the top-left of the screen where Glide doesn't, that makes the game at least a hell of a lot, as you say, more playable on Glide than Rice's. The second reason I can presume your list is invalid as, which I have just justifed here, you are really overexaggurating 'unplayable' as something with issues, without checking/considering what the issues are. The third reason I can tell is because you're wrong when you say Glide64 is the best plugin for Asian games. Rice's emulates all Asian games better than every other or equal to another plugin. The fourth reason is this quote.

NBA Hangtime is only unplayable on HLE graphics plugins. Without a Voodoo card (which screws other plugins, so bad thing to have), Jabo's is faster than Glide for this game. On LLE it is faster than it is on HLE.

There are several things wrong with this post.
- If you take the number of times Jabo's Direct3D 1.6 and Glide64 WonderPlus appear on BigHead's list, you'll see Jabo's 1.6 is greater. So, if you actually look at configuration lists such as Bigheads...
- Reword of second sentence, "There's a lot of RAsain titles that I heard only work on Glide64, but I'm going to just presume that instead of looking at BigHead's list to see that all of the Asian games include Rice's as their best plugin." Heard, as in, not even read.
- Like you said in the other post from before, "we're talking about playable games here, not some pair of games that hardly anybody knows about (ex. Asian games)." Not only were you being hypocritical,
- you are making assumptions without even properly checking sources other than your own animalistic instinct. Sure you're checking Glide's compat. list, but you're listing like every game that says Playable and listing them as better than Jabo's and then saying "there's plenty more where that came from!"
- Glide's compatibility list was hastily done. It doesn't include the jigsaw challenge issues that glN64 fixes, for example. "there's plenty more where that came from!" This issue makes this part of Banjo-Tooie almost unplayable due to speeds slower than 10 FPS. In contrast, Project64's 1.6 support list, which misses a lot of games that actually are playable on it quite well that are usually mentioned in Glide's compat. list, talks a lot more about issues.
