Just got my second one of these and thankfully it's looking pretty much the same as the first, within about 3% I reckon (which was a huge improvement on my last multi monitor setup, neither of those looked even close to having the same image). I do have a question I hope someone can help with...

I think from the point of view of those of us who enjoy single player FPS, it's pretty much the worst time lately. It's been years (2007) since we're had any significant quantity of high quality single player FPS experiences (Like Half Life 2 Episode 2, Stalker, Bioshock).

Quick bump... anyone know if I'd be able to fit a Be Quiet! Dark Rock Advanced cooler in one of these? It's 167mm tall (will be mounted on a Z68 motherboard, if that makes a difference).

These are pretty much exactly the motherboards I'm looking at at the moment so this thread is quite useful for me. Decided against the Gigabyte because that particular model doesn't have the onboard GPU (and my PCs usually get retired to server duty eventually which makes that sort of thing...

The matt finish is much nicer anyway. I bought mine and chucked an ebay special in there. Cheaper than the 250gb, better looking and with more storage. Win. ;)

Nice colour though.

Apparently just the first stage. Seizure has been overturned, but they could still lose the lawsuit as a whole.

In people's homes? I don't know... struggling to believe that. Maybe they were in the homes of Sony employees. :D

I'm in the club. Stupidly I only bought it fairly recently... mostly because they released a black version. Don't know why I bothered. I have real trouble dealing with how it looks on my TV. I'll resurrect it if those arseholes ever release Pikmin 3 though. =/

Blech.

How can you tell if it's never sat in?

I just did a print screen of the GT5 site and cropped it.

I have now collected every car in the game outside of the stealth models and academy cars (which I don't have access to):

It's a permissions issue on an media related update that you get from xbl. As I recall deleting it and then redownloading it works, but it's ages since I had to do it. There's loads of info on the net about it, or at least there was when I had the problem. I assume it's a refurb / replacement...

The sad thing is that I'd probably consider them if I could save and go back to them another time. :D

Not sure I'll ever get there unless they have more seasonals. The endurance events just aren't my cup of tea.

Yes, I know what streaming is. I just don't know why you specified it when I said I was watching a 1080p MKV on my 360 (the only way to do this is using the method described earlier). :p

Not sure what you mean by streaming it... but I was watching a 1080p vid on my 360 sent by my laptop (64 bit windows 7 home) and it was using up about 225mb RAM. I did notice later on (about 4 hours of videos later) that my available ram had disappeared, but I can only assume that's because...

Oddly enough, not really in my case. A 1080p vid I'm currently playing is using about 225mb of ram.

I love you. I finally got around to trying this and it works perfectly. :D

I mean generally. For instance I know my missus is no-where near as good as me at platformers.

No, and co-op is good, but very frustrating if the person you're playing with is of a lower skill level to you.

I just used a fully upgraded ZR1 RM with default tuning. Drives just fine as long as you're not stupid with the throttle inputs.

I haven't played this in ages. I think I'm scared of throwing my controller through the TV. :D

New official firmware is up... all we know at this stage is this:

Ahh,, that's one of the reasons I'm avoiding CFW for now. Will let the scene mature a bit first.

Ouch, how did you manage to lose two saves?

You're almost at the last set of endurance races and only level 18? How did you manage that?

Getting an X2010 early on will ruin the game. Seriously, it just becomes an exercise in lapping people and trying not to fall off the road.

I don't know how you've had the patience to buy that many cars. Using the used car dealership takes so freaking long. Select dealership Wait for load Select car Select purchase Confirm purchase Wait for load Confirm that you don't want to use the car Confirm paint chip Wait for load...

That again? They only started looking at hacking OtherOS back into the system when Sony took it out as of the slim revision. Get your timeline right. Slim (No OtherOS) geohot Sony patches out OtherOS

No, it doesn't. The only time it ever spins the disk is on the dashboard, and once when the game boots. Outside of that, it's absolutely still (I know this for a fact as a friend of mine has a modded 360 with a clear window installed into the top of the DVD drive). If you're hearing...

My PS3 and my 360 S are about the same in terms of volume. I'd say the 360s is slightly more noticeable because it's got a higher pitched tone. Oddly though, my PS3 gets really loud from time to time. I guess at some point I'll have to open it up and clean / redo the thermal grease. I'd...

I'll send you something useful, don't worry about sending me anything back. Oh, and keep a save backed up somewhere. Even an slightly out of date one is better than nothing.

I think it's more the point that if you didn't like the first game, you're not particularly likely to like the next one. For instance whilst I'm interested in Uncharted 3, I know I wont be playing SOCOM, Infamous and any other of the sequels on that list. Whereas something like The Last...

I wish there weren't so many sequels there. There are a few games I want on the list, but not many (2 or 3 guaranteed buys).

Just for info, that PS3 game serial thing was floating around before the PS3 was even released: http://www.joystiq.com/2005/11/08/playstation-3-wont-play-used-games/

Doesn't seem right (mine certainly doesn't do it), so yeah, I'd consider getting a replacement.

Makes sense really, amazed it's not more common.

As long as it's not a garbage story like MGS4... then I'm ok with that. At least Killzone 3 looks like it has a story, unlike the second game.
