Xbox 360 wireless controller works great!

I have a Plantronics Counterstrike headset that is very similar to this set but was more expensive. It was a great headset until one night it, quite literally, fell apart. I did manage to duct tape the outer ears back together but the microphone can't be used anymore, they are now only...

Ok, i guess it's what it should be then..

Hey thanks for the help. How do I check to see if it's single channel? EDIT - Nevermind, i recalled someone told me about CPU-Z and i just ran it and it does say DDR2, 4096 MBytes, Channels# Dual. The DRAM frequency says 400.1 Mhz though, shouldn't that say 800 Mhz or since it's dual its...

I love it, I don't see how anyone could want to go back, the old interface was pretty crappy IMO.

why not just go to the store and buy it?

The Razr Barracude is what I have and they are freakin' fantastic headphones. They are so comfortable you don't even feel like there's anything on your head really. They have good directional sound and are very loud and very, very clear audio wise. I'd highly recommend for anyone looking for...

Wow, some of you guys sounds like ridiculous, fanboy, narrow-minded PC snobs. Are there dumb, poor graphics, tripe made for the drooling masses on consoles? Of course. Guess what? There is probably 10x more of that stuff made for the PC gaming world. There are also fantastic gaming...

I game on all platforms so I can see the view from both sides of the fence. However I think that there is enough room in the PC market for both types of games, the Sins of a Solar Empire very obvious PC-type game and the Tomb Raider Underworld console-type game on the PC. I for one am happy to...

yes but you don't see the dash and surrounding car area

I have not had any issue like that, have you tried updating your video card drivers? Also, just wondering - has anyone got multiple monitors to work using Vista or is that something that only works in XP?

I didn't know, i'm pretty computer savvy but never paid much attention to memory and especially never really learned much about how timings affect things. I only plan to use this memory for about a year or less because at some point i'm going to ditch all of it and get 8gb when i upgrade to a...

well i got the 2gb of ram today, just installed and looks like my memory rating is now 5.0...LOL...oh well, i'm not going to stress about it, it only cost me $40 for another 2gb and like I said, everything runs great with the new video card (GTX260).

well that's cool but i pretty much stick with western digital most of the time. i've not had good luck with other drive brands.

Thanks, I took up bigdogchris on his opinion in this thread so mega props to him. It seemed like the 640gb was a good price point, I got it for $82 from buy.com.

If you want something to tide you over you may want to check out Sacred 2. I just got it last week and it was a real bug-a-bear to get running but it seems a lot like Diablo in so many ways.

I was never able to get this to work in Vista. I even tried compatibility mode and it just seemed to give my computer fits..

It's very, very, very engrossing, you will lose hours and not even realize it. With that being said, i'm still confused as hell as to what i'm doing half the time (and yes I did do all of the tutorials). It's well worth the money I think.

Well I ended up getting the Western Digital Black 640GB drive and got it installed so plenty of space now. I have only installed Sacred 2 on it but it's so nice to have plenty of breathing room on the space front again!

I ordered two new sticks of ram today so I will go to 4 gigs (I just now typed 4 megs, LOL, those were the days eh?). I will let you guys know later this week if the score changed. Also, just FYI to any of you guys who said I was worried or whatnot, not really worried just always looking...

Thanks everyone for the input. I'm pretty much a geek but not real familiar with the whole timings issue. I guess i'll have to read up on it. Also, since I've got a 1gig video card in my machine and run Vista 32 would adding 2 more gig to my rig be worth it? I know Vista 32 will only...

Hey all, I just did that test in Vista of the machine and my rig all rates 5.9 with the lowest setting being 5.1 for my memory...so my machine is a 5.1. I'm wondering if i could buy better or faster memory to speed up my machine or if i'm off on a wild goose chase. Here are my specs: #...

when you quit like that thought doesn't it sometimes destabilize windows?

I love this game too, about the only thing I really do hate is the convuluted menu system and how it works, especially how you quit. When you hit esc it should take you to a menu and in that menu somewhere, very apparently, there should be a QUIT TO DESKTOP option. That should be a hard rule...

the reason my camera wasn't working is i had another camera program running so if you have a usb camera make sure no other programs that might use the camera are up and running when you start the game..

btw - is the camera option disabled in the demo? i do have a USB camera hooked up and it was on but it didn't take a picture when I told it to. not a huge deal, just wondering. thanks

well after obsessing all week over this dual monitor thing and how i can't get the demo to run i guess i may just take the plunge and buy this anyways...

Hey guys, thanks for all the input, i'm considering this drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136284 Let me know what you think

I am getting low on space and was going to buy another hard drive for my newly upgraded PC. I've looked at the Velociraptor but honestly don't know if I want to spend that much for a 300gb hard drive when I can get much more space for much less money. I finally scoped out a 1TB western digital...

I downloaded the demo last night and it runs fantastic with my new Geforce 260. I was very excited to see there was an option for multiple monitors since I just got a second monitor. However so far i've been unable to run it on my dual monitors. When I choose 2 monitors it just puts a smaller...

Just got another Gateway 24" and wondered if any games support both monitors. Thanks!

i would start by disabling all programs in your startup that you don't need and then do what you were doing before to see if you get the same error. if you don't then it's one of your programs and maybe check for an update, if you do lock up again then onto the next step.

to clarify - by "like diablo" i mean a couple of things : 1. can you play alone and have success without having to join a group and do raids? I quit playing WOW because of the emphasis on social play (which I do enjoy but every time i login i do not want to play as a group). 2. do you...

the problem with the 360 controller on the PC is that the analog triggers do not work. well at least not the game i played it with (san andreas GTA). does anyone know if the triggers work with other games?

Is this game like Diablo?

Alright, thats good to know, I just ordered an XPS laptop Friday. Thanks!

Dell XPS systems have a different support than their regular systems?

I'm here

It's best to wait a couple of weeks and get the Metal Gear Solid PS3 bundle on June 12th.

Go with ava-direct, I have and don't regret it.
