For my house I have Road Runner for my broadband and have connected the modem to a Linksys e1200 wireless router. I run a physical cable back to my desktop which is where I'm experiencing a number of issues when I game with my friends. I'll get dropped calls with Skype, serious lag and...

Brutal Doom v20 just dropped recently and I want it. Problem is that I do not currently own any digital versions of Doom II. My googling has revealed that there are a lot of different options and configurations for getting different versions of Doom II to work on modern machines, but it's more...

https://www.youtube.com/user/greygoogame A friend of mine from college is one of the modelers on this game- I hadn't heard anything about it until he posted something about the upcoming release date. The visuals are impressive, and the trailer is really well done, but I have some concerns...

I'm posting this here as I play the Console version, but I figure PC players have plenty of advice as well. I came very late to this game- a month after the console drop. I'm trying to look up information on this, but everything I find is either very old or doesn't seem to mesh with my...

I loved Diablo 2- played the crap out of it in college and am still happy with my level 89 Necomancer. I avoided Diablo 3 after hearing a lot of negative stuff, but have heard some good things about the console version. What's your take on it? Worth getting and playing?

Somehow I missed Torchlight when it first came out, but I have made up for that transgression by supporting the latest Humble Bundle. I am loving this game! I was wondering if you could recommend any mods- especially for classes or pets. I don't want anything gamebreaking, but anything that...

I just picked up the Witcher Extended Edition Director's Cut from GOG.com's awesome holiday sale. I've heard a lot about how awesome this game is, so I'm excited to try it myself. Without any spoilers, I was wondering if there's anything I need to know or if there are any mods that are must...

I've found the Lunar Forge, so I know what it does, but I was wondering if other forges afford special properties to crafted items. For instance, the Skycloud Forge, according to fluff, creates better Steel items than any other forge- so if I craft Steel there, will I see a difference? What...

Yes, you read that right- this thread is about the original Baldur's Gate... Well, the version with Tales of the Sword Coast to be accurate. I had the game a long timeago,but never finished it,and then sold it off years ago. Picked it up again when GOG had their massive D&D game sale this...

I'm really surprised that I didn't hear about this game until today, but thanks to CAD I'm now well aware of Project Zomboid. This is a zombie survival RPG with a pretty interesting premise of "this is how you died." Apparently there is no winning with this game, just survival and the...

Does anyone know how I could create a JScript function that would allow me to pass in a URL and return the source? I'm specifically looking to use this to make a call to Yahoo Finance to grab stock quotes. I was doing this with ASP .NET's HttpWebRequest but my group just found out our host...

I'm building the website for a company I'm starting up. I'm programming in vs 2008 using ASP .NET 3.5. I'm using a master page to create the basic layout and navigation for the site. For my main page I want to display a blog in the content form. The problem is I haven't been able to find any...

I'm a total n00b to PHP programming- I'm actualyl working through Chapter 1 of Head First PHP & MySQL. I successfully setup Apache on my machine, PHP 5.3.5, and MySQL. When I ran the first test drive webpage I got a strange error in my browser. I setup Apache to show errors in the browser...

Back in either '02 or '03 a Chess game came out on PC that I really want to get a copy of now. The only things I remember about it were that it had a medieval theme and you could play through an adventure mode where you progressed across a map. Each stop on the map was a new challenge that...

I recently reinstalled Neverwinter Nights to play through the expansions- I've been feeling nostalgic- and I'm really enjoying it but I'm looking for some mods. I know about nwvault, and I've been through some of what they offer but I haven't found what I want. I'm looking for any texture...

I picked this up with the wife yesterday and we ended up playing it together for a good 4 hours. Traveler's Tales really learned from their mistakes and went back to the pure fun of the first Lego Star Wars. We're still early on, so I don't know if we'll run into the infinite enemies insanity (I...

This game peaked my interest, but I'm wondering if it's any good.

I'm late to the game- I've only been playing multiplayer of Moder Warfare 2 for 3 days so far, but last night I had what I consider to be my best multiplayer moment so far. We were playign scrapyard and I was on a killstreak. I called in an airdrop and was rewarded with a pedator missile. The...

I'm currently a lvl 11 Arcane Warrior. I can hold my own pretty well, since I've got pretty good equipment and weapons- I'm using the Green Sword with a +2 lightening rune. When I've got a melee weapon in my hand I leave Combat Magic, Arcane Shield and the Wisp active. For spells I have...

I am loving this game so far, but I do have a question about how Armor Tiers work. Is it possible to equip a piece of armor when you meet all of the requirements except the armor tier? If so, what's the result? I'm unfamiliar with those rules because I'm playing a mage and I've basically ignored...

I haven't played CS:S in about 2 years, but I decided to get back into the game. I was wondering if there are any must-have mods for the game that aren't hacks? I searched google, but everything I found on there looked like a hack.

I got the Tales of Vesperia collector's edition because I was able to get the game free through work, and that was the only edition I could get (this was right after the game was released). I had been thinking about selling it on Half.com, and decided to check the prices, and I was very...

I've never played Heretic II, but I picked it up from a yard sale today for $0.50- original case and booklet, and the CD's in great shape! Anyway, I really want to know what patches and mods are must-haves for my first playthrough of this classic game.

I'm a big RPG fan. I loved Lost Odyssey, Morrowind(pc), Oblivion(pc), Deus Ex, Mass Effect, etc. But for some reason I am vary wary about trying out a new RPG when I don't know much about it... probab;y a good thing with all of the bad ones out there. Anyway, I was wondering if Tales of...

I hate the way trolls have been evolved in Fable II. The whole idea of having to target the exposed 'nerve endings' is just annoying! Maybe I'm just bad at fighting them, but it takes me something like 5 minutes to kill one of the buggers, which is infuriating! I miss the days when I could...

::SPOILER ALERT:: I ran across a Demon Door early in the game that wanted to see my dog do tricks. Well, I just taught my dog about 4 new tricks, so I want to go back to the door and see if I can open it- I just can't remember where it is! Anyone know where it's located?

1) You play fetch with your virtual dog more often than your real dog. 2) You become frustrated when performing a series of manly poses for a girl doesn't cause her to offer a 'roll in the hay.' 3) You get angry that jumping from a tall rock resulted in a broken leg. 4) You are...

In the first Fable you could force any building to come up for sale by getting rid of the owners. If you're a good guy, this generally involves having them follow you into a dangerous area and allowing the monsters to feast on their flesh. If you're evil, you just slaughter everyone until those...

I bought Fallout from GOG.com last night- have to say it was an excellent purchase! I dl'ed it late last night, so I only had time to install it and haven't done more than mess with it for a couple of seconds. When I start the game and go into the character creation screen I can't read the...

Ill be posting a review of my playthrough tomorrow probably... had the day off today so I've been playing a lot of Too Human today:D Does anyone else feel totally overmatched when going up against ranged-baddies? Closing in can be redisulously difficult, and if you've got a lot of ground...

KoToR II was, to be brutally honest, a broken game. A very, very broken game. I've been following the progress of Team Gizka for a while (www.team-gizka.org/). They are working on "The Sith Lords Restoration Project" (TSLRP for short). They're getting closer and closer to releasing their...

I'm playing through Lost Odyssey; trying to get through the temple of enlightenment. I went in through a few rooms and then came all the way out and went to a new area. In the Sqaure of Eternity area: Go 8N,4W,9N,8W- there's a platform I'm supposed to take up right there, but it's already in...

I'm interested in getting Dark Sector, but not interested enough to buy it yet. It looks intriguing, but is it a good game worth my time/money?

I've been thinking about replaying Freespace 2 lately, which means I only have a matter of days before this thought becomes an all-consuming obsession:D The game still looks pretty good, even for how old it is, but I was wondering if there are any graphical or gameplay overhaul mods for it?

Okay... what's the deal with Kelolons? How do you beat the little suckers? I've never been able to kill a single one. The final straw came on Disk 3 when I got ambushed by 2 Gold kelolons and a kelolon spellcaster of some sort that kept casting heal. How can I kill these little freaks?

I'm trying to build some automation for Word. I've downloaded the PIA for MS Office 2003, which contains the DLL's for all Office products. The problem is that I can't find where the DLL's have been installed. When I double-click on the O2003PIA installer a progress bar popup appears, but it...
