I did not pirate the game, I downloaded my copy from EA and used my perfectly legit key on it. Niko did the same. We had the game working for a few months until EA recently killed our keys.

Nice.

I wish I could still play, but for no reason at all, EA disabled my key so I can't play anymore. That's some real bullshit.

Further Youtube oppression for you Brits-

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7933565.stm

Quote from BBC :

YouTube is blocking all premium music videos to UK users after failing to reach a new licensing agreement with the Performing Right Society (PRS).
Thousands of videos will be unavailable to YouTube users from later on Monday.
Patrick Walker, YouTube's director of video partnerships, told BBC News that the move was "regrettable".
Steve Porter, head of the PRS, said he was "outraged... shocked and disappointed" by YouTube's decision.
In a statement, Mr Porter said the move "punishes British consumers and the songwriters whose interests we protect and represent".
The PRS has asked YouTube to reconsider its decision as a "matter of urgency".

This action has been taken without any consultation with PRS for Music and in the middle of negotiations between the two parties


PRS statement

The body, which represents music publishers, added: "Google has told us they are taking this step because they wish to pay significantly less than at present to the writers of the music on which their service relies, despite the massive increase in YouTube viewing.
"This action has been taken without any consultation with PRS for Music and in the middle of negotiations between the two parties."
Mr Walker told BBC News the PRS was seeking a rise in fees "many, many factors" higher than the previous agreement.
He said: "We feel we are so far apart that we have to remove content while we continue to negotiate with the PRS."
"We are making the message public because it will be noticeable to users on the site."

Consumers must be scratching their heads in amazement at such obstacles to delivering legal content in a timely and straightforward fashion.

Videos will begin to be blocked from 1800 GMT with the majority of them made inaccessible over the next two days.
YouTube pays a licence to the PRS which covers the streaming of music videos from three of the four major music labels and many independent labels.
Stream online
While deals with individual record labels cover the use of the visual element and sound recording in a music video, firms that want to stream online also have to have a separate deal with music publishers which covers the music and lyrics.
In the UK, the PRS acts as a collecting society on behalf of member publishers for licensing fees relating to use of music.
YouTube stressed that it continued to have "strong partnerships" with three of the four largest record labels in the world.
Mr Walker said the PRS was asking for a "prohibitive" rise in the cost of a new license.
While not specifying the rate the PRS was seeking, he said: "It has to be a rate than can drive a business model. We are in the business for the long run and we want to drive the use of online video.
"The rate they are applying would mean we would lose significant amounts of money on every stream of a music video. It is not a reasonable rate to ask."
New deal
YouTube has also complained of a lack of transparency by the PRS, saying the organisation would not specify exactly which artists would be covered by any new deal.
"That's like asking a consumer to buy a blank CD without knowing what musicians are on it," a statement from YouTube UK says on its official blog.
YouTube is the world's most popular online video site but has been under increased pressure to generate more revenue since its purchase by Google for $1.65 billion in 2006.
"We are not willing to do this [new licensing deal] at any cost," said Mr Walker.
He said the issue was an industry-wide one and not just related to YouTube.
"By setting rates that don't allow new business models to flourish, nobody wins."
Services such as Pandora.com, MySpace UK and Imeem have also had issues securing licence deals in the UK in the last 12 months.

Seriously, when will it end?

That carrot looks tasty.

I'm sure most of the artists don't like what WMG is doing.

Recently, the Warner Music Group have been having Youtube videos containing music published by them muted or taken down. Personally, I think this is an incredibly stupid move by a corrupt, greedy corporation. Why not let us play music on our videos, where the music has the chance to be advertised and spread around?

Bump. Saw As I Lay Dying a couple weeks back, complete with videos.

I'm driving the Posermobile with Vince Offer as my co-driver.

As I Lay Dying- Nothing Left

Not really the best thing to listen to when im baked, but it's still good

Why don't you guys post the very last thing you bought? Makes it more interesting than people showing off pc gear.

I’m Too Sexy - Right Said Fred

Indeed I am

Last thing I bought was a Spicy Italian sandwich from Subway. Was pretty good, but a bit messy.

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

You need to stay in more.

We don't have all the same cars as you do here in Americaland

13/21.

'Sup.

99.9% of anime dubs/AMV's involve Linkin Park or Dane Cook over Naruto or FMA. The first few were interesting, but the other couple billion are just ridiculous.

Narrow the front wing and widen the rear and it will look 1000x better.

The holes look good, but the actual rotors look destroyed.

Quote from Vain :

Scawen didn't mention any possibility to remove the lock on the setup options so I wouldn't hope for it.

Vain

That's just mean. English isn't his first language, so he probably doesn't know much on the grammar side yet.

Thanks Scavier! This will be the perfect thing to kick off my Christmas break.

Quote from JohnUK89 :

Hate to burst the bubble there but you've coupled an LGA1366 board with an LGA775 processor. Bit of a no-no, since it won't work
Assuming no SLi is needed, might I suggest http://www.newegg.ca/Product/P ... aspx?Item=N82E16813131347 as a replacement for the motherboard?

Oh damn, I forgot to relink to a 775 board when I was making that post. I started putting links to an i7 build in, but since it was too expensive, I went to 775.

http://www.newegg.ca/Product/P ... aspx?Item=N82E16813131296

There we go.

Quote from tonyfreak215 :

That i7 processor is overkill for just gaming unless you are running a SLI setup. Will you be using this for other things beside gaming? (video encoding, etc..)

Nothing is overkill. You just won't have to upgrade as soon.

Sorry I can't save it into a wishlist, I don't have a .ca account.

Motherboard- http://www.newegg.ca/Product/P ... aspx?Item=N82E16813128362
CPU- http://www.newegg.ca/Product/P ... aspx?Item=N82E16819115041
Memory- http://www.newegg.ca/Product/P ... aspx?Item=N82E16820145197
I tried putting together an i7 build for you, but it goes to over $1000.

(You will need more than just 2gb of memory.)
