    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    My FW900's screen is stuck in a rotated position, about 10 degrees counterclockwise. And it won't move using the rotation adjustment in the OSD. Any idea what could cause this? I haven't seen this problem posted before. I thought about taking the monitor to a local TV repair shop, thinking...

    What's the oldest game you keep going back to play?

    Descent and Descent 2 played in stereo 3D on my 3D Vision projector. Jaw-dropping and especially vertigo-inducing.

    Alien: Isolation

    Yeah, Ripley's daughter died of old age while she was in cryosleep between Alien and Aliens (at least that's what Burke told her). But her name was "Amanda" in the film. Pretty freaky to think about, actually... Ripley cries as she touches the photo of an old woman, who was her daughter. Amanda...

    Halloween 2013

    I also like to play horror games during Halloween season. There's nothing like sitting alone in the dark at the PC with my headphones cranked and a can of Guinness or hard apple cider at the ready. Anyway, you could try Cry of Fear ; it's what I'm playing through right now. It's a mod for the...

    No, the monitor makes no sounds while flickering.

    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas about how to fix a rotation problem that my FW900 is experiencing. The screen is permanently rotated about 10 degrees counterclockwise, and cannot be corrected using the rotation control on the OSD. In fact, if I try to correct the rotation by rotating...

    Which games benefit(in game) from installation on ssd?

    My massively-modded 70 GB Oblivion install benefits greatly from being on an SSD. I imagine a similar Skyrim or Fallout setup would too!

    SS2 on GOG

    Has anyone had luck running this new GOG release of SS2 in 3D Vision? Some people on the nVidia forms say it works great, but it doesn't render in 3D for me despite being a DX9 game. 3D Vision activates, and the lasersight appears, but there's no separation.

    Ok I finished Aliens Colonial Marines for you guys.

    Despite my last post, I actually liked Aliens: Resurrection. The whole cloning Ripley thing just seemed like a desperate attempt to create a role for Sigorney Weaver in an Alien sequel. But it did take corrupted military/industrial officials 200 years of desperate engineering to clone Ripley in...

    Ok I finished Aliens Colonial Marines for you guys.

    I recently watched all the Alien movies, and I was disappointed to notice that Alien: Resurrection was written by Joss Whedon. Joss usually does better.:(

    What games have good dynamic Day/Night Cycles?

    EverQuest has a great day/night cycle back in the day. You could watch the moon/sun slowly track across the sky. It was useful when playing as a human character (without infravision) in the early days, as it helped you judge how much longer you could travel on foot until you had to get...

    Win7 Speaker set to 5.1, but can hear all channels through headphones during test

    I have a fairly simple question here. I'm trying to get my headphones and X-Fi Titanium HD sound card properly set up for movie watching with PowerDVD, and seem to have hit a weird snag: If I set my Windows 7 speaker configuration to 5.1 Surround and then run the speaker test, I can hear all...

    RPG with the best/realistic sword combat

    Oblivion with the Deadly Reflex mod was always pretty cool. The mod's creator based it on Dark Messiah's combat. Amazingly, I still haven't played Skyrim to compare its combat system to Oblivion with Deadly Reflex.
