Play online with real players. Bot killing is meaningless and just shows you are good at killing bots, which basically amounts to the same as being able to play tennis against a wall. It doesn't translate well into playing versus other players.
River City Ransom was remade for the gameboy advance and named River City Ransom EX, with new moves, customizable characters, and even a 4 way battle royale at the end if you bring 3 extra friends :D.
If he has trouble figuring out zombies of all things in an RPG which uses basic element strategy, then god help him once he reaches bosses like the Magus Sisters, Asura, and Bahamut:p.
"SHE KEEPS HEALING HERSELF WTF"
Wrecks that have no loot inside aren't assigned to anyone, so you are free to salvage them without penalty. Most people don't even bother salvaging, so if you want money fast you can setup a salvaging ship and start grabbing that junk:D.
Probing / scanning is a lot of fun :D.
I reactivated my account this week after a huge 4 year hiatus (I actually was playing the game in beta too) to give it a shot again. Last time I had played I had just joined an alliance (currently part of Goonswarm), got ganked in a mid security sector...
If I remember, there was one PvP server in Everquest which did this called Discord. It didn't last long for obvious reasons, with griefers and hackers completely destroying the server where anyone playing legit got tired and left.
It will be the same problem with Darkfall. Once hacks and...
You'll get bored of Animal Crossing very quickly (there is very little game and really for the casual player), and Children of Mana is not very good. Get Mario Kart DS, and you could also get Elite Beat Agents for the both of you. Your GF will love it, and you can get pretty addicted to it as well.
EQ was the pinnacle of MMORPG gaming in what I would call the golden age of MMORPG's. There never was a game which brought in adventure and fun like this game, even if the 'fun' was trying to hopelessly get back to your corpse. I still remember being a total newbie in the game, and being a human...
Right click the volume icon, select recording devices. In recording devices double click on the microphone. In the microphone menu click the levels tab, and you will have one option for mic volume and another for mic boost.
Put in +20db Boost in when choosing recordings settings for your mic and you will be able to hear yourself in the mic. Normal and +10db did not work for me in Vista 64. Of course I have a different problem, I need to lower the sound of everything else except the mic for recording purposes, but...
So far I've figured out the stereo mix enabled in Vista trick, and how to make my mic audible where I can hear perfectly what I say on the video. The problem is...my other sounds and music are playing just as loud as my mic so it makes for a noisy mess when making a video.
Basically what I...
Sounds like you guys sucked and playing solo rambo style if you were dying on normal. Normal is training at best, the fun is the more difficult levels.
And too many zombies? There can never be too many zombies.
My HDTV is currently on a DVDI to VGA adapter (waiting on an HDMI cable shipped). It's so random and bizarre though. I've also had this problem where the HDTV loses its refresh rate and gets a 'not supported mode' error (does not affect my main monitor). This has only happened with my new system...
I have the same problem it just happens out of the blue, and always on desktop only (havent at it happen in game yet). I get a 'display driver not responding' error on vista.
I have a somewhat similar build, Q6600, DS3R board, Vista 64 and a HIS 4850 card. I use dual monitors though and ATI's...
I wonder if my issue is related. HD4850 on Vista 64 bit, latest ATI 8.10 catalyst driver and also dual monitor. Every time I change games, or the system goes in hibernation mode, I lose the screen on my 2nd monitor (my HDTV). If I try to change the HDTV as my primary monitor, I lose the screen...
Thanks for the help with the suggestions for a good mid-high end rig. In the end I upgraded to the Corsair 750W as suggested since it was only 15$ more then the 650W. I was really battling myself, but in the end I settled for one HD4850 for now instead of going for an HD4870, and may get 2nd...
I started researching a bit more now, and see that HD4850 in crossfire beats out an HD4870 in the most recent hard review in games. I can get an HD4850 card for 200$ CAN (170$ with mail in rebate) compared to 370$ for the 1GB version HD4870. I also realize that the DS3L motherboard does not...

1) My current monitor is a 19inch 1280x1024 LCD so I am limited on that part, but also use my 42inch HDTV 1080p as a second monitor. I'd expect to upgrade my current monitor in a year or two.
2) I'm not playing many current games since they are just too tough on my computer, though I have...
Hey guys, I'm finally deciding to upgrade my old 2003 AGP based system and start again from scratch. It's had a very good run and I tried keeping it afloat upgrading to cards such as the 7800GS at the end of the AGP life, but it's time to finally move on.
Problem is, it's been so long since I...

I have my own channel :D. AND I even own a Virtual Boy. Gogo Red Alarm and Teleroboxer.
Did I mention I had to get eye surgery? :p
In order words, all the time he is spending to maximize his level 70 toons will become meaningless as level 71+ random drop green items will be better then the purple gear he just spent many hours getting?
The Dreamcast didn't have any direct competition for quite some time. Nintendo Wii came out as a late comer, and against 2 superior machines hardware wise. Dreamcast also didn't fail, Sega pulled the plug due to its past failures like the Saturn being too much of a mountain to climb over.
Made about 1500$ selling plat in EQ1 around Planes of Power time without really trying. Man, being an enchanter in those days pre-charm nerf, with exclusive access to the Plane of Tactics where I could solo charm those hasted dual wielding ogres, or solo in the pits was awesome. Massive...
Are you some self-proclaimed knight and protector of Sony and all things PS3 related or something? If a game stinks, it stinks. Lair was proclaimed to be one of the most sought after games for the PS3, and how it would show the true power behind the PS3. It ended up stinking up the joint and got...
I hope you are kidding. One, Nintendo makes a profit on each console while Sony loses on each. Second, it doesn't matter if a console sells for 100$ or 5000$, if the games themselves sell for 50-60$ each, you want more consoles out there to get the optimum amount of games sold. The bulk of...
So called 'critics' said the exact same about the Nintendo DS. The fact of the matter is the Wii is selling at an incredible rate, and is doing so WITHOUT a huge must-have game other then Zelda. Wait until innovative games showing the true capabilities of the Wii controller (such as Nintendogs...
Sacred was fairly good, but Titan's Quest is the game you want if you want a true Diablo 2clone that's fun. If you want the best Diablo 2 clone to satisfy your hunger for Diablo 3, then go with Titan's Quest + expansion.
I actually went back to Titan's Quest a few weeks ago, created a new...
WoW is in no way even remotely comparable to the complexity that is found with EVE's economy. It's like comparing Monopoly to the stock market.
He basically described EVE. WoW might be a much more popular game and much more forgiving to a casual player and it does have an economy, but there...
Wii Sports is a teaser of things to come from Nintendo Wii. Even though it's simply a loose demo game about as deep as Sneak King, it does show that a dedicated game can easily take full advantage of the Wii controller's capabilities.
It wasn't that long ago that Nintendo DS was seen as a...
The PS3 is a failure simply because Sony decided to attach a failure of a format onto their bread and butter of a console. The PS3 COULD have been out a year ago, and COULD be out with a 399$ price tag, and COULD have been out in great supply. All of this was possible, had Sony not been intent...
I wouldn't say it's too easy, just that more songs are needed. The last song is really tough due to pretty much needing to hit 300 on all hits to keep the bar afloat.If you get 100 on 1/3 of the hits you won't make it.
