    Logitech gaming software v8: assign minimize

    I know this thread is absolutely ancient but it's (unsurprisingly) still a problem with the LGS and I have a solution that works really well in case anyone else finds this thread in the future. I'm use to using the logitech options software with my MX Master at my office but at home, the G900...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    Just watched Linus' review and google searching for the case brought me here :) Looks really nice and clean, especially in that matte white. I've got my HTPC in a Silverstone SG05 BB Lite case with a little mini ITX board, 750ti and a silverstone 450 sfx. This thing looks like it would be a...

    Borderlands 2 Gameplay Performance and IQ Review @ [H]

    it was the OC/heat after all. I dug around some more and discovered several other guys having the same problem. all with GTX680's. I had the fan speed set to auto and went in and manually set the RPM points depending on which temp the card was at. I rarely saw the fan speed go past 50% so I...

    Borderlands 2 Gameplay Performance and IQ Review @ [H]

    Gang, I've been using EVGA's overclocking utility since I got my 680 and recently, I've been noticing maybe a driver issue or something where (for instance) playing borderlands 2, the game will freeze up for maybe 10 seconds and I can ctrl+alt+delete out of the game and then click back into it...

    Will you buy Ivy Bridge?

    I have the same and while I tell myself I don't NEED to upgrade, my new laptop has an i7-2630QM, 8 gigs of DDR3 1866 and an OCZ vertex 3 SSD. It feels significantly quicker in every way than my desktop. The only thing my old 920 seems to be able to do marginally faster than the 2630 is...

    There's only 3 levels of spells I believe. Novice, adept and expert. You can buy all the destruction spells from Faralda at the mages college (dark elf with pony tails that you first meet when you approach the college) You have to be at a certain level though either with your character or...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced for release on 11/11/11.

    I totally agree. One that recently comes to mind is Castlevania lord of shadows. It got bashed for being a GOW/Shadow of the colossus rip off but I think the story it and the DLC told was incredible, the gameplay was great, visuals were unreal and the soundtrack is phenomenal. I really...

    the 2 final fantasy games on SNES were the worst by FAR.

    If Quake was made today..

    I still have countless old NES and Super NES games I never beat because they were too hard. There were no difficulty settings, no FAQ's, no trainers or console commands, nothing. If you couldn't get past a part, that's it... you simply are not good enough to beat the game. Games like...

    yeah I've been reading that type stuff on a couple other forums. I'm honestly to the point of not even bothering reading even PEER reviews at this point because of how lop sided I find them. A game can do 99 things above and beyond all expectations but that 1 minor problem whatever it may be...

    This is ultimately going to be the game's saving grace, not if but when it inevitably falls short of the unfallable internet PC gaming communities impossibly high standards of game development.

    Yeah a guy at our office has the 360 version already (or so he claims). I know that distributors already have both console/pc copies but from what I've read, you have to wait for steam to unlock the PC version even if it's the retail copy. meh, whatever. I can deal with 10 more days.

    Joystick settings fro Battlefield 3? PC

    After flying them in this game, I went back and flew the apache in desert combat... zero comparison. it's SO rewarding when you get the hang of it. flying in BF3 is just meh at best.

    High-end Racing Wheel Comparison: Logitech G27 vs Fanatec GT3RS vs Fanatec Turbo S

    Old thread but still relevant to my interests. I want a wheel that I can use to play Forza 4 and a few racing games on my HTPC. Nothing expensive or extravagant. Just something that will work well on both the 360 and PC (PS3 is irrelevant) Not super expensive either. I would buy used if...

    How well does BF3 single player work?

    I suspect that they are knee deep in overhauling the source engine for EP3. I'm willing to bet that is what is taking so long.

    How well does BF3 single player work?

    If it was a COD clone, the SP would be entertaining and have lots of fun and memorable missions. From the reviews it sounds like dice got the linear path, clown car respawning enemies and bland generic story down pat but forgot the fun and entertaining bit.

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced for release on 11/11/11.

    I started an oblivion play through from the very beginning of the game with no saves with a higher Ugrid and it still crashed :( As far as the save game rule goes, I was under the impression that you could load a save game, change the ugrid distance and then set it there from then on but you...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced for release on 11/11/11.

    I've used both of those and it seems that even the slightest bump up beyond what the in game menu allows you to set will sometimes crash. I don't know if it's just the memory handling or what but at times, I could save the game, walk 2 steps forward and it would crash like clockwork. Re-load...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced for release on 11/11/11.

    I think my only concern at this point is the object draw distance. Even at max settings, fallout vegas has a PATHETIC draw distance and it seems that when you go into the ini file and edit it to draw more Ugrids to load, it get extremely unstable. Here is a glaringly bad example of this...

I knew there would be problems though. Glad I cancelled my...
