I know about the whole "initiate siri" thing, but that kind of removes the whole hands free purpose. I don't like having to hit the button driving. Wonder if they'll update that in the future. I have a microsoft band, so during work I like to just get notifications through that. It keeps my...

So. Week two with the Iphone. I'll admit, I love it so far. Very great hardware, extremely easy transition that only took me a few hours, really. However, there are some maddening things that I have realized... 1. No way to have texts read over bluetooth automatically? Wow! That is insane that...

I really don't think the surface phone is going to happen. I don't know. I'm curious to see what universal apps does for windows phone. I tried out windows 10 multiple times and just didn't feel like it was an intuitive upgrade from wp 8.1... The user experience just didn't feel like what I...

Thanks for all the advice and tips everyone. I actually just managed to pick up a lightly used iphone 6 plus for $350, so I will give it a try. I'll make plans to try out the Nexus 6 here soon as well. Appreciate all your contributions!

Wow, thanks for all the solid responses! I was also hoping for a surface phone, but I feel like microsoft is probably going to bail on flagship phones before that becomes a thing. I don't have a mac or ipad, but my fiance does use a lot of apple products. One of my worries is the use of...

Well, my four year experience with windows phone looks like it is coming to an end. I've cycled through a handful of them, lately from the titan to the 1520 to the htc one. I think I've finally reached the point where, for work and for recreation purposes, I'm feeling pretty restricted by what...

also. "It hates fire!"

Yeah, it is more of a journeyman game. A little bit linear in it's design, but allows you a large world to explore on your own as you wish.

I knowwww! It sucks having it sitting there in my library, downloaded and unplayable. Can't we just bend the rules a little?

There is a fast travel system. In the original, it was more difficult as you needed to spend large amounts of money for ferrystones. With the expansions (and as it will be in the PC version) you will have an "eternal ferrystone" which will allow you to fast travel to various locations on demand...

Wellll, some players are good enough to go 40-3. I've done it (very rarely) in ideal conditions (bf3 metro with the entire other team sitting on the stairs). You have to observe the player in most cases.

Whaaat? I watched that website for a solid year and a half waiting for a North America release. I'll have to explore this when I get home next week. Madness.

Good to see and hear that they likely did a proper port to the PC instead of half-assing it. I assume most modest builds will run the game well, considering that the game is three years old and wasn't really ground breaking at release in regards to graphic level. two weeks! Can't wait to dive...

I guess I'll never understand what the point of playing is if you are using an aimbot. But that idea has been argued a multitude of times, and isn't the goal of this thread, so I'll sigh and move on. I remember in Phantasy Star Online there was a NOL hack, where everyone in a room would be...

Alright, this is getting borderline flaming. I think the OP has some valid points. I used to play BF like I wanted to ensure that I never saw another human. Was in the top 10 on Battlefield 2142 for awhile, and got banned from multiple servers for "hacking" just because I was good enough to...

I agree with that. I was intrigued by demon souls, hated dark souls, and could never play shadows of col for more than 45 minutes.

Honestly, the pawn system alone is genius in this game. Aside from that, it does a good deal to allow you to play to your own style. Sword, bow, magic, etc. The story isn't bad, and is compelling enough to keep you going. Dark Arisen added a sort of non-linear, "demon souls-esque" gameplay to...

bringing this thread BACK FROM THE DEAD. Pre-ordered this game the first day it popped up as an option on steam. Can't wait to get back into it! Beat the original three times, never beat Dark Arisen. So... If you pre-order on steam, do you still get the soundtrack bonus? Not sure I saw that...

picked up the mid tier. Why not throw more games into the backlog? Not like I have a social life anyways. No point in acting like this might interrupt it.

Just heard about this and read the article. Curious if anyone knows any additional information on this? Have been out of the scene for awhile..just recently completed a new pc build and got a couple of items from them. I used them for one of my first PC builds like...8 years ago. Would be sad to...

Throwing in my 2 cents, recently upgraded to a samsung u3415w recently and love it. Beautiful screen, great for throwing up multiple windows or for ultrawide gaming/videos. There are some compatibility issues out there. For me, the format ended up being more important than the refresh rate and...

curious if anyone has tried the old-games.com website to download any retro games. Was hoping to get the old Close Combat games, but don't want to download a top of spyware (or games that don't work).

oh my GOD I hate myself. The monitor was muted. Somehow I glazed right over that when looking at the sound settings.

Ugh. Sorry, typed that in a hurry and didn't include any pertinent info. GTX 970, running windows 10 64 bit. Using the DP to mDP cable that came with the monitor. Going to switch it out for HDMI tonight to see if that makes any change. This is my first time using DP. Was curious if there...

anyone else have issues getting the monitor to play audio? Using the DP to mDP cable..tried switching between DP 1.2 and 1.1, still no dice. Switched the playback device to the monitor and everything as well.

Really, I'd love something that lets me run software "full screen" but still leave part of the monitor available for use in other windows.

Actually, they both do the same. I didn't update on the dell display management last night because my Logitech keyboard died (nooooooo). Ddm does the same thing. Would love to find software that makes the UW behave like two monitors.

check that. Found it, it just isn't listed for the 3415. Weird. Downloaded and working, though. For those looking for it that find this thread, just google Dell Display Manager. It will auto-update to the latest version. Is currently working on Windows 10 64 bit for me.

am I missing this? I don't see anything resembling what you are mentioning.

Hey everyone, recently purchased a u3415w, and I was wondering if there is any recommended software out there for screen manage? (dividing monitor into thirds for browser windows, etc). I know LG comes with its own stock software for this kind of thing. And I did some searching, but didn't...

also, just out of humor, I realize that I mentally phased out the entire argument with Razor without even intending to. Does this mean by brain has been trained to ignore dumb forum arguments? I'm evolving :D

Not sure I agree that the 290x is the obvious choice out of the three. AMD fanboy here, picked up a 970 to replace my 7970 and I've been quite happy. Enjoying the temperature, power consumption, and noise...I was willing to pay an extra $30 over the 290x price to get those categories improved.

So I came into possession of an onkyo 737 this week, and I've been using a pioneer 1222 for the last year or so. So now I have the positive dilemma of deciding which one to keep. Any opinions on the matter? Been testing them out. The pioneer definitely has some better room adjustment and EQ...

Not meaning to distrust NCX's opinion, but I've never seen so much hate towards 30" monitors. Are there any contrasting opinions out there?

Struggling to find something that I can just use as a decent mic for my computer. I do have a bluetooth receiver, but I'm just trying to see if anyone has an idea of something relatively cheap that will perform decently and can attach to a shirt or headphones. Thanks for the help!

Blah. Okay, fixed it. In case anyone searches and finds this threat, I used this solution: open regedit and find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{XXXX...}\0000 ( 'XXXX' means device number. There are several device number folder and u should find 'AdapterDesc' in 0000...

The receiver (pioneer 1222) is constantly trying to switch between pcm and dolby digital (which is just the default). I can leave youtube up with a video paused and it will stay in PCM and not click anymore. Once I close the window, it starts kicking back between the two again. It doesn't do...

Okay, so it seems like my receiver is creating the popping. There seems to be disturbance in the audio signal or something. It keeps trying to identify the speaker setup. It only holds speaker connection when a continuous audio source is playing (like youtube or a song), and then it only...

uninstalling the hdmi audio driver stops the popping. Hm. Continuing to investigate.

Just installed a 7970 in my system to replace a 5770. I'm now getting some slight popping sounds coming from my speakers in a cycle of every 10 seconds or so. It sounds like a slight double tapping. "tick tick." Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this? I'm using hdmi audio out to my receiver...
