they're probably getting their first real use after purchase...
(opens can of worms)
i wanted to buy a ps3 when they first came out, but gt5 was the only game i was interested in... LBP was of no interest to me, and all the other "good" games are probably on XBL. what other PS3-only games are there?
not any more than determining which weeks to run races on... every other week is okay, but when they start doing 2 and 4 week breaks, how else do they expect people to keep paying attention?
if you have one of those realtek sound cards with srs premium sound, you probably won't be able to do much about it unless you turn srs off, but then you lose all depth and volume to your sound.
but if this was the case, you'd probably have noticed it already with lfs and any other application that generates sound. at least it's only temporary.
no, there isn't a log, unless people log it themselves...
as for a supposed conversation, i haven't seen victor online in a few weeks (but we have exchanged emails)... and i've never seen scawen or eric online in ~2 years, so i would have to imagine that this conversation never took place.
whether the devs are "taking the piss"... i think the recent anti-cheat update shows us that they're working on it, regardless of whether they are saying anything to us about it. personally, that's enough to keep me at bay for a couple more months.
actually, yes. but it depends on the situation... i've heard of several incidents recently where people were being questioned by the police and they stayed mum and had no choice but to let them go.
but on the flip side, it could also put you in the slammer for obstructing a peace officer.
sounds like b-spec got a massive improvement from gt4... those 1-5 settings were pretty useless... most people would just set it to 5 and walk away for a couple hours...
