wii - godfather... brilliant game :)

twice or so i've had it so to get the wiimote to "stay alive" and not turn off after what I think is a timeout... each time i had to unplug the console's power.. this is like twice in 3 months ish.. so nothing major

i cant imagine this game being more fun with a normal controller.. i'm enjoying playing it with the wiimote so much.. controls took a bit of getting used to. but hey.. its not like ive been using a wiimote for the last 20 years like people have with d-pads.. and for such a big game i cant...

preordered mine in sept.. got mine at the midnight opening of my local gamestation (i'm a brit).. was worried about nunchucks etc selling out.. seems i was right.. :)

Yes it does. The latest Wii software update added parental controls.

and rumour is... wii zelda's a year deep in development already..

precisely.. PPC is a very different animal.. a raw 'ghz' comparison means nothing. the gamecube was more powerful than the original xbox and the ps2.. and the wii is a couple times faster than the game cube.. of course its not touching the 360/ps3.. but its NOT as far behind as people...

it'd work similar to madden where you gesture for pass directions etc.. they are doing pro evo for the wii..

are these component shots also 480p or not?

part of the thing is.. unlike PCs consoles are a fixed, known platform.. so developers can do extra optimising for specific resolutions. think about the varied amount of PCs, chipsets, memory speeds etc out there.. vs a complete known entity. the variety in PCs is why the option is there, not...

i'd suggest gettting component cables.. or trying to make sure the yellow (the rest is just L+R sound) is making a good connection on both ends

ok i've been following this.. FACT. that movie is fan made FACT. a lucasarts rep said some "interesting" things about wii at E3 when asked about its use as a sabre. (source: http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=9270 ) FACT. a british development house "Free...

i've seen a few posts about this on various forums.. universally it seems people aren't sure when its meant to be on.. here's one for you >> http://forums.gametrailers.com/showthread.php?t=45619 seems theres an option for controlling it.. since i won't get my wii till dec 8th (i hope) i...

taxes are greatly varied all over europe.. the UK often gets a bum deal beyond taxation though..

those numbers are worldwide though.. and ps3 isn't dropping worldwide! oops.. the wii has the jump on sony in europe and austrailia .. and is the only new console dropping in those territories before this christmas.. and Sonys response "europeans DONT MIND waiting" oh and the classic "wii...

brand new quotes froms farcry designer on using it in an FPS... IGN Wii: Will Far Cry Wii's controls rival that of a PC mouse/keyboard setup, in your opinion? Fabrice Cuny: While you will be using two independent peripherals (Wii Remote controller and the nunchuk controller together), the...

sounds like the DRM for this may be tied per console.. whether they just OTP over the downloaded rom data per console (assuming each console has a unique ID).. or use somekind of key to encrypt it.. this'll be easier to suss if the games are put onto the SD cards. if its on SD cards...

gamestation.. 20 quid down.. i'm english. hence the dec 8th release date.. at least i'll know from US feedback the games to avoid!

got my pre-order done today.. taking no chances.. roll on dec 8th!

Yes.. BUT.. there is a delay in the accessing when using that memory due to sony's kludged architecture.. which M$ designed out for xb360... they can use cheaper, slower memory and get similar performance in _some_ scenarios.. in short.. there is actually little in it.. being fast is no good...

if you're that worried.. just wait the extra couple days

ATI.... do the words eggs basket... bring anything into mind? dropped the ball once... now twice?

^ when its out ;) what about a 5950 ultra ;)

they're both winners with you lot duking it out over their products :D

no... high is for 256meg... ultra is for 512meg..

just FYI.. this might be relevant, but i was caught out by something similar with the game.. someone said in another thread that doom3 defaults to 8xAF ... when i couldnt work out why when i hadnt touched it, it was faster when running at 2xAF than what i thought was 0xAF could it be...

nah it def works, my monitor tells me what its running at.

ok one more batch :) found the inf for my old ass monitor, it can do 1024x768 at 100hz.. i used the nvidia override in display props to set the value, that seems to work... 1024x768 high qual noAA noAF 40.6 fps vs on 1024x768 high qual noAA noAF 48.2 fps vs off 1024x768 high qual...

sticking with nvidia! just got my 5950 ultra :) my path to date... 1 meg cirrus logic VLB! whut! lol Matrox Millenium II 220.. awesome 2D card (pass through with matrox..) i ordered a msytique and they send the more powerful millenium.. fools! Orchid Righteous 3Dfx.... relays...

cool thx.. i need to hunt out the inf for it then. :)

:P 1024x768 med qual noAA noAF 48.6 fps 1024x768 med qual noAA 2xAF 46.7 fps not even 1fps between high and medium with 2xAF :) any idea why is 2xAF is faster in high qual? because doom defaults to 8xAF.. according to post 2 before this one :)

it does that by default. :)

ok, now i just ran some more timedemos.. i havent touched the refresh rate stuff yet, thats next. i want to find my monitor spec's n set it all up nice :) 1024x768 high qual noAA noAF 45.5 fps (same as yesterday and as per my original post) 1024x768 high qual noAA 2xAF 46.3 fps...

it detected the memory on my card fine thanks. Those figures i posted are from using leadteks latest set which i believe are based upon 61.36. as they're listed on their site as "CD8.0 (61.36) (2004/7/28)" The 61.36 driver's have 4 settings. however,before realising that option which...

thx for the suggestion.. i'll look into seeing what the game looks and runs like with 2xAF tonight :) it hasnt been too bad with vsync turned off.. i do turn on vsync sometimes for normal play if the refresh is bad in places.. i've stayed out of it, but a lot of people don't seem to...

hey just signed up here.. been reading for a while though over the years (esp from a friend who shows me cool stuff in the pimped rigs section.. lol) I wondered what tips people have for users of cards like mine, and other non '6800' cards. there seems to be a lot of talk about that one since...
