Also, Crysis isn't that great gameplay-wise. The developers of the game focused WAY too much on eye candy and way too little on making it fun.

Quote from scoobyrbac :

It could be like this...

Theres some animal crossing game for the gamecube that if its raining at your house while your playing..its raining on the game..

So..the people thats hosting the server..if its raining/storm or something like that when your driving it would rain/storm?

How could the game know when its raining at your house when Gamecubes can't even connect to the internet?

How did the Orange box end up so low on the list?

What Jakg said. Just unplug your PC and pop open the case. Unhook the power supply cables that go to the mobo and CPU, remove the little battery located on the board, wait about 10 minutes, put the battery back on, and plug everything back in.

Since I saw that Alien is wanting to base his system on a much higher end in another thread, I'd suggest going for an EVGA 780i, 2 9800GTX's (They scale in SLi MUCH better than 8 series cards) or a single card if SLi isn't wanted, a 700W+ PSU (SLI, 600 will do fine with no SLI), a Q9550 if you want a quad, and a WD Raptor to go along with the 500GB Seagate drive I suggested.

Quote from Stang70Fastback :

Well, I'll start you off with a few recommendations:

RAM - Corsair XMS2 DDR2-800 4- ... 9 ($29.00 after rebates!)

HDD - Seagate Baracuda SATA 320 Gb HDD

Corsair 520W modular PSU (mayb ... r but built like a tank!)

That ought to get the ball rolling...

Keep in mind that he is in Scotland so he cannot buy from Newegg.

But- I will give a list from scan.co.uk
Also, you haven't given us a budget so I will make something a bit closer to high end.

Intel E8400
EVGA 9800GTX
Seagate 7200.11 500GB Hard drive
Antec 900 case (Not sure if this one is a mid or full tower
Corsair DDR2 800 4-4-4-12 2x1GB (Or 4GB if you order 2)
Asus SATA DVD Writer
Asus P5N-D nForce 750i SLi
ViewSonic 22" 1680x1050 2ms Widescreen monitor
Tagan 600W PSU

Edit- Well, you do have a budget, but you haven't specified how much you can spend.

New version? I shall give it a shot.

It was a while back in an LFSCAR race at Aston Club, driving an XRR. I had a pretty rubbish start, nailed the wall coming out of the chicane a few times. Got spun by another driver, had a hell of a time getting my car back onto the track, blew a tire around lap 45, and coming out of the final turn on the last lap, a tire gave out again and sent me into the sand, but luckily my car had enough momentum to make it through the kitty litter and made it to the line, finished 5th.

I should win an award for cramming the most crap into one sentence

Alpine Systems. They focus more around FlightSim, but it's still a compter

www.alpinesystems.co.uk

Hope they help. There's lots more if you look around...

You must be out of your mind to reccomend Alienware (Or any other company that prebuilds computers when the OP has a custom build in mind)

This one:

Quote from scoobyrbac :

You running Vista or XP? If you are running Vista..I'd try to find one that would be DX10 capable if you want it?

Are there any AGP slot cards that are DX10 capable?

I couldn't get a skin made, so I will have to drop out of this race

Sorry, people who crack the game are not welcome. Go away.
Apesadumbrada, la gente que agrieta el juego no es agradable. Salir.




I'm taking spanish classes but I haven't learned enough quite yet (I used a translator as well :tilt

I was hooked on RunEscape for a long time, simply because my computer sucked so bad there was nothing else I could play.

Quote from mickyc30 :

highest you can get is 126! not that i play it.
i used 2, i spent yonks on my account got a few mill, about 5 full sets of rune armour, every free weapon u can get ect ect.
its about a lvl 70 ish, but yeah, i havnt played in about 2 years, its like cocaine once u get on u just cant get off, but i got some of the nicorette patches and the gum, they really healped.
and sure i would give u the user name and pass, but i cbf scrolling up, finding out ure name clicking on your name, then clicking on send PM to blah blah blah, then i cbf writing

username:ten*i**
password:*******

and then to top it off i cbf pressing send.

They raised it to 135 or 136. I haven't touched the game in over a year, but I look at these things when I get incredibly bored.

Stop spamming the forum with this crap.

Quote from Rappa Z :

I watched a fake commercial on the site for a hybrid car, and they showed some sports cars in it. They look amazing. One was almost exactly like an Aston Martin(front was exactly the same but couldn't see back).

Hehe, I love how it keeps the comedic style with radio commercials in previous GTA installments. Every scene has something bad happening to someone and/or the car

Quote from Scrabby :

8800Ultra

Dude, he is looking for something he can actually afford, not the most expensive card short of a Quadro. 9600GT should do the job and more.

Quote from dropin_biking :

Curious about my next build...is it true an aftermarket cooler will let an 8800GT hit 740~ core and 2000+ on the memory? I read a few reviews for the Accelero S1 from Arctic Cooling. It seemed quite promising, think It'd be worth the $35 ontop of the build? or would the overclocking not be worth the money?
~Bryan~

If you want extra cooling on an 8800GT, you'd be better off with an 8800GTS 512. The extra $40 or so for a cooler for an 8800GT would equal the price out with the GTS in most cases.

Now here's something intresting

GTA IV Wiki

Quote :

Heavy fire will scar - and permanently destroy - parts of the environment. It is possible to shoot through walls with powerful weapons.

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

"Lewis Hamilton looks to the sky to see his father has stacked up all of his winning trophies, and notices the NASA officials discussing the possiblity of using them as a new way to reach the International Space Station."

LOL. You win!

Heres a new pic.

That would work, but a live representative is more preferrable.

Call Microsoft, it's what worked for me.

Man, Stage6 was the best site for high quality videos. Now i'm going to have to find someplace else to watch them
