    Dark Souls Thread

    I just started playing this after owning it for a couple of months. I died several times prior to and fighting the first boss. I got frustrated for the night and put the game away. Started playing it again yesterday and made good progress and am not dying as much, really like the combat system...

    Explains why the RAM was very popular! RAM and Video Card sold - responding to all PM's now. Sorry for delay. Dropped hard drive price to $40 because I want to move these items and boxes out of my dining room.

    FS: Q6600 G0, 775 Mobo, 8800GT, DDR2 RAM, 500GB HD

    Sold everything! Thanks everyone. Just built a new PC and the only parts I kept were the PSU/Case. Hadn't upgraded in 4 years and didn't know what I was missing. SSD's are such a massive upgrade! As a result I am parting out my PC that I built in early 2008 and used up until a few days ago...

    What is the best phone for verizon?

    Galaxy Nexus and Razr are both top phones right now for Verizon, can't really go wrong with either. I am still using a Droid X and am considering between the two. I also have an iPad and love it so might wait and see what an iPhone 5 looks like.

    Is This Sound Card Any Good ?

    I have the Xonar DG and with headphones it sounds worlds better than onboard. I was using onboard for 4+ years and am amazed at how impressive this card is for $25.

    The Official Guild Wars 2 thread

    I didn't play much Guild Wars but this looks incredible. I am a big fan of PvP and the three sides with a huge map and multiple objectives seems great. Doesn't have to be the clumping mess with chokepoints that Alterac Valley in WoW was. STV and Hillsbrad had great open PVP though in the...

    Slight buzzing/static in front panel headphone jack

    I have an Antec 900 and have never really used the front audio jack before. I recently picked up some 595 headphones and can pick up the same slight static noise through it. I am just using onboard sound, but when I plug it into the back I have no problems. Just the wiring I guess to the front...

    Building computer for Grandma

    Funny, I was tasked with the same thing. Trying to figure out a build for around $400. Just needs to play simple games and search the web. She has an old emachines that is very sluggish and can not handle video/flash stuff anymore. Already has a new monitor and printer, and I know I can...

    Witcher questions...

    I just picked this game up and it is fantastic. I am enjoying it much more than Oblivion. Does anyone know if you can go back and complete the trophy quests from earlier acts? I am in Act 2 and missed the first two.

    GTA IV: PS3 or 360? (poll)

    360 because the few friend that game have a 360. Achievements + DL content is always a plus. I would have actually preferred PS3, quieter, don't fear the system dying, actual server hosting instead of a user.

    buying on PSN

    Just a side comment, I love the way you purchase things over PSN, just flat out dollars and paying the exact amount. I despise the points system of Nintendo and Microsoft, I still have leftover MS points that I can not purchase anything with unless I buy more.

    Anyone else just buy games and never get around to playing them?

    I'm sure this happens to a bunch of people. I have a massive backlog of games that I need to play, I would continue to purchase and never touch them or barely play for a few hours. I don't have as much time as I used to but I have told myself not to purchase anything else until I play through...

    Neoya X2VGA 2 ?

    I was using it on a 20 inch 1680x1050 computer monitor, did a really nice job. I sold it when I bought a 42" LCD HDTV. I'd post pics if I had some, it was beautiful. I still think my games looked better on my monitor than on my newer TV, but I can not say if that had something to do with it or...

    Neoya X2VGA 2 ?

    I had one for my 360 and PS3, it was fantastic. Games looked great on my monitor even though I could only handle 720p on my monitor.

    Age of Conan

    I got into the AoC beta on the initial invitations I believe, months ago. Just ignored it and never tried it out for some reason. I deleted the email, if someone knows of a way of getting the key back I will hand it out here.

    Soap about 360 vs PS3 - MS is a cheap arse

    Nothing against either service, both are better in some regards. I hate the points system MS uses, Sony has them on that. Charging for every single item is also kind of ridiculous, Sony does provide free themes and other stuff. Another thing I hate is the advertising on Live, you think that by...

    BFG 8800 GT OC 237.99

    Can anyone tell me if/when they get a confirmation email or invoice or whatever they send? I did not create an account or write down my order number since I was in a hurry. I hope it went through, have not received anything, I assumed it would be an automatic and rapid confirmation.

    MSI 8800GT $208 @ Dell.com

    I ordered this when it came back up on the 28th. I realized I had a slim chance of getting this anytime soon but my order status was never updated and it continued to say it would ship on the 13th. I just chatted with Dell and they said it would not ship out until January 8th. Great price...

    Is my PSU dying?

    I tried hooking up another computer temporarily and had the same problem. For some reason my DVI cable has died, really weird. Using an analog cable and everything works. I would have never thought that a cable could die randomly like that. Power supply works fine, I know it's not the best in...

    Is my PSU dying?

    I got the thermaltake 430 in today and installed it. Powered up immediately, all fans were spinning but got no video. The video card is a 7800 GT AGP I believe, 1 power connector, fans spun and it seemed fine. Windows booted because I heard the music. Checked all connections multiple times...

    Is my PSU dying?

    It seems to get worse with humidity as well. We turned the AC off this week and it has been really struggling. I will have to work it for 30 minutes before I can get up and stable, it will repeatedly power off and on during the startup phase and even after I am in Windows. I bought a $40...

    Is my PSU dying?

    I have an Antec Trupower 550 or 580 watt psu. My system is kind of old and in no way pushes that limit. This started last winter and would happen periodically, now it is an everyday problem. When I attempt to power on my computer nothing happens. To get it to work I have to push the power...

    B Router + Antenna more range than D-Link Extreme N?

    I have a very old Netgear wireless B router, yes B, not even G, that we have been using since we first got broadband internet. Once some other family members started getting computers I found out that this signal could not reach them, and I bought a 5dbi omnidirectional antenna. This extended...

    Sick of mmo's but everyone is playing one...

    I agree it provides great entertainment value compared to many single player games. People complain about the fee but it is really no big deal. You summed it up well except that really if someone gets in 40 hours a month and the monthly cost at worse is $15, then it is only cost 37 cents per...

    best place to buy an xbox 360 live subscription?

My account is about to expire and I would like to buy one of these cards off ebay. Just wondering if you can take any...

    Nobody talking about GHII?

    I own GH2 for the PS2, but I'm still contemplating getting it for the 360. Whammy bar issues kind of worry me so I'll give it sometime. I won't be getting it for improved graphics that's for sure, all most players ever see while playing are the frets on the screen, not the character or other...

    SpiderMan 3 @ PS3 FTW!

    Has anyone ever noticed theNoid is always around to crap on any PS3 thread? It's like he feels anything positive about it is threatening his way of MS !!!!!! living. Anyway it's no surprise because Sony owns the rights to Spiderman, I'd expect more of this in the future considering how many...

    RCA to mini jack audio problem

    Yeah its got the 2 strips. Actually I just noticed if I jam it in there and hold it a certain way it comes out both speakers perfectly. If i let go it might only come out 1 or none. I can't seem to get it to put out sound without manually holding it in place a certain way. I need to apply...

    RCA to mini jack audio problem

    I have a PS3 and PS2 and have been trying to get audio from my Klipsch 2.1 computer speakers. I am using component cables and run the 2 RCA cables to the minijack to the auxiliary input in the speakers. I am only hearing sound out of the right speaker which it plugs into, only the white input...
