    finicky dvd burning/ripping software

    My dad owns a disc of one of my favorite tv shows that I want to back up (This is illegal I suppose, bite me.) Unfortunately, its a dual-layer DVD disc and I only have single layer DVD-5s. So I have exclude all the menus, extras, etc. and leave just the bare episodes to avoid heavy compression...

    xbox live hardwired?

    Lost Planet is really the only I have that I have fun playing online with other than Star Wars Battlefront where I also get lag in. I don't have Halo 3 or anything else much to compare it to. Lost Planet doesn't show any kind of connection status like Halo 3 does and doesn't indicate if you are...

    xbox live hardwired?

    I just got off several sessions of Lost Planet and each time I entered a match, people ended up yelling at me for my lag. I'm not using a wireless connection at all, I have my ethernet cord hardwired straight into my 360. I have 6MB broadband, too. I know this shouldn't be happening, what is...

    Best Rendered Water

    I didn't like the water in Oblivion that much. Looked like oil. No one has said Far Cry Instincts Predator. The water reallllyyy impressed me, with the way how it perfectly reflected light and sparkled on the surface.

    Far Cry free version: "Only available to US users"

    Ok so, I downloaded the ad-supported Far Cry from Ubisoft (I am a member) through File Shack. When I try to install it, it asks for my account username and password. I put it in and it tells me it's only available for US users only. This is frustrating, because I am a US user. Anybody had...

    Best Half Life 2 version for me?

    Alright well thanks guys I think I will consider the Xbox version after all.... I downloaded the demo off of Steam but it freezes on the loading. It boots up okay but as soon as I choose new game and it starts loading, it freezes at a little more than halfway. I googled it and I can't find a...

    Best Half Life 2 version for me?

    I am inspired to buy Half Life 2 after playing HL2 Ep 1 with a friend. I'm short on money so I'm more of a console player so all I have is my laptop and 360. I know it's not much of a demanding game for a PC but I know with this laptop I won't be able to crank up the visuals that much. And I...

    How come PS3 version of the game always < Xbox version?

    Both Star Wars Battlefront games looked waay better on Xbox than on PS2.

    New Red Faction game confirmed!

    oh yeah!!! I loved the original Red Factions...My friends and I would play this together even more than Halo. Great multiplayer. A current gen RF would be just jaw dropping.

    Study: Playing Violent Video Games Helps Vision

    Umm.... Could I be an anomaly?... All I play is FPS...between Battlefield and Halo I play no other type of genre. Yet my vision gets progressively worse EVERY year. Last year my vision was around a -5.5, now I have a borderline astigmatism with my right eye a -7 and my left a -6. The eye...

    New Crysis footage - Weapons of Crysis

    This too I think will make me want to build a gaming computer (I'm only on a laptop). I would choose this over Halo 3 no questions asked.
