    Revolution has been priced

    Ironic that it's many of the same people that bitch about a full-fledge gaming system costing less then $300, are the same people that love the $700 graphics card that they're saving up for or drolling over. :rolleyes:

    SiN

    OH MY GOD. HOW DID I MISS THIS? Honestly, Sin was one of my all time favorite games when I was younger. Wow. I'm totally stoked now. :D

    Destroy your PC and receive $1000 from StarForce

    Hah. If they have such confidence, they'd make it $10,000, with a free round-trip ticket if you can prove it to them. This is just another PR move.

    eVGA 7800GT CO Is Insane!!!!

    Running at that resolution is nothing to be proud of. I can run all those settings on my vanilla 6800 card, but any resolution higher and it starts to lag. Hell, I can turn on everything except soft shadows, and set every level to maximum, and still get a solid FPS rate at 1024x768. I want to...

    Uh, wow. Seems like a downgrade, doesn't it? 10 buttons compared to 101 + a 7 button 360 degree movement mouse? :eek:

    EB Games and No XBOX 360 for me!!!!

    If the first Xbox was any indication of stability on launch, I'd stay the fuck away from the Xbox360 until at least a month after it's launch, to see what bugs and recalls creep up. Trust me, it'll save you aggrivation in the long run. I still remember the three different DVD drives the Xbox...

    ABIT IC7 Max3 Question.

    Unless news of the biggest enthusasist motherboard maker of all time going out of business somehow slipped by my attention, I'd have to say that comment was BS.

    Warren Specter on the Future of Video Games

    Warren Specter is a moron. He completely lost me when I made 180 changes to Thief: Deadly Shadows in which the thief community was completely against. They got thousands of people to petition for things to stay the same, and yet good old Warren's response was "I know better than the fans do"...

    Death of the Space Combat Sim?

    I don't care what anybody says, Freespace 1 & 2 were the best space sims ever created. ;)

    I guess too much gaming is bad for your health

    Not true. Humans can go a long time without sleeping. A radio DJ back in the 1960's held a fund raiser in which he tried to stay awake as long as he could on will power alone, it was recorded live in Time Square. He stayed up for more than 260+ hours straight, passing 11 days and breaking the...

    [NEWS] Doom the movie - going to have hell!!!

    It will still suck. Every movie that's ever been made that was based on a game has sucked. I will go see it though, now that they changed the rating to an R. As long as there's blood, guts, and lots of screaming, I should be at least half-way content. :D

    Racist Game What a Stupid Move

    If people who hate other people based on race are called racists, and people who program games are called dorks, does that mean these people are racist dorks?

    ATI misrepresents nVidia AA in demo

    Oopsies, did ATi cheat again? :D Although it didn't win any brownie points with me, I'm so used to companies lying and twisting the facts nowadays that nothing like this surprises me anymore. Even my beloved nVidia has been caught with their hand in the cookie jar on more than one occasion. ;)

    1999 never looked so good

    ROFL! I remeber that! :D I thought it was in PC Accelerator, I LOVED that magazine! The day they went out of business was the day I cried, for the first and only time in my life. :( ;) I confess to still owning nearly every one of their magazines to this day. :eek:

    Quick question ... 128 MB or 256 MB ???

    Get 256. I got the 6800 when it first came out, and the 256 model was $150-$200 more expensive, so I went with the 128 model.

    Who Really Grew Up With Games?

    I'm 21, and I was raised with games. The first console I played on was an Atari, and the first console I owned was the Nintendo. After that I played on both consoles and computers. Eventually I got into computers because they were much more expansive than consoles, and so much more you could do...

    Duke Nukem Forever in 2006 guys, really!

    I love Duke, but I'm afraid it's not going to live up to the hype. A blast to play, I'm sure, but not as fun as it could have been if it had been released 7 years ago. :D

    How long have you been building PCs for?

    Just over 7 years. The first PC that I built from scratch was somewhere betwen late 97' and early 98', but I've been tinkering with computers inside and out since I was able to walk. :) I'm now heavily into the mod scene, and I'm even cooking up a new wall-mounted acrylic case mod for my...

    ABIT IC7-MAX3 northbridge fan FIXED!

    Now here's something that surprised me. Some of you know about the reknown problems the IC7-MAX3 motherboards had with the northbridge fans failing after a very short time. Well mine was no different, a few months after getting the motherboard the northbridge fan failed on me. It never...

    Halo 3 in the making!!!!!

    Halo has good storylines, and decent multiplayer, but it's nothing special over other games out there. I'll still play Halo 3 when it comes out, but I'm not going to be drooling over it until then.

    WoW on Dialup

    WoW is actually built to run just fine on dialup. The problem is that their servers are so fubar right now that it's causing severe problems. However it's still playable and the monsterous lag that was there a month or two ago is gone, and they're mopping up the rest of the problems. All in all...

    Unless you need to specifically splice up partitions, just pop in your Windows XP CD and let it install from there, it will automatically format and partition for you on your main drive. (Again, assuming you haven't split up your hard drive with multiple partitions)

    Strike 3 Abit, You're Out!

    Never had a problem with any ABIT boards, been with them ever since I got into building my own systems. I even got the infamous "IC7-MAX3" board for my latest computer, which I built a little under a year ago, and it's never given me any problems. The northbridge heatsink and fan have stayed...

    Wow, never thought my last name would make someone mad

    I find it funny that they have no problem blowing people away with shotguns and grenades, but a supposed drug reference is absolutely out of the question. Please, won't someone think of the children? (who are blowing each other away with semi-automatic weapons)

    What's your least favorite section of Half-Life 2?

    Least favorite? Had to be the damn road you had to drive along for hours. Enough already. The ocean had no great special effects like in water hazzard, and the repetitive slaughtering of the combine and ant lions got old way too fast. Anyway, Ravenholm was designed and presented well, but...
