we've got some new lights recently that run off a little solar panel, but thats only some fairy lights in the garden. xmas is just a big scam to make everyone spend money nowadays. Jesus rarely gets mentioned anymore lol.
yay, finally something to make use of my quad core 
This version looks like its gonna crap all over the console versions.

i wont go to the cinema anymore, havent for years. Prices have doubled since the last time i went, and they're Nazis about people bringing in their own food. I reckon a decent home cinema setup is much more enjoyable if you can save up for it. And with 720p/1080p more easily available now, movies look awesome even when you strech them over the wall.
ive tried everything above and i still cant get the insim version to work at all. The only thing i havent looked into is on the lfstweak FAQ it says "Also, make sure your firewall isn't blocking the tweak because it uses local connection to communicate with LFS." Does this mean lfstweak is using my internet connection to talk to lfs.com? Does anyone know what port it uses? I think this must be my problem.
i dont know if its because its the beta or what, but i was really dissapointed with this game. I just got bored with it after 5 mins and i havent bothered touching it since. It doesnt really feel like a new game, i might aswell play cod 2. It seems like theyre trying to rush these games out now so they can get their precious money.
you dont need to install any scenery for x-plane to work, its designed so that you can install any combination, or none, of the scenery packages. If you go somewhere with no scenery installed, you just see a lot of water. Its a very well designed game.
i was going to watch it, but i just dont have enough motivation to watch v8's anymore so i forgot. I wish they'd hurry up and put another make of car in.
i went to a very strict christian school in terms of their religious beliefs, and they preached that everyone is equal in gods eyes, dont judge, etc. What a huge bunch of hypocrites. we were taught about homosexuality in our "religion" classes and you can guess what the conscription material was like they force fed us. Basically homosexuality is bad and you will burn in hell for it. Im just glad im one of the few that could think for myself. Funnily enough there were some gay people in my class at school (girls 
) and i can only imagine how they must have felt in those religious classes when the teacher was taking the piss out of homosexuality.
) and i can only imagine how they must have felt in those religious classes when the teacher was taking the piss out of homosexuality.ive been having heaps of un playing farcry 2. The car handling is kinda crappy but the sounds and bumbs when you're bush bashing make up for it. It makes it far more interesting being able to wreck the car with one good hard crash, and it stops you just trying to plough you're way through everything. Hopefully there will be lots of mods and maps being made to keep it interesting.
Dont forget x-plane comes with everything you need to make you're own aircraft. Theres Planemaker and Airfoil maker. Has anyone fiddled much with the planemaker? Apart from building the 3dmodels, its also kinda like lfstweak, but you can change EVERYTHING on the aircraft, it would take hours and hours to make one from scratch, or you can just mess with a finished plane. Ive played with it a bit but unless you really know what you're doing most of it is a bit confusing. Does FSX have anything like that?
i got into x-plane because its the only sim out at the moment that has decent helicopter physics. FSX just doesnt come anywhere near close. I love practicing autorotations. For me it's the LFS of flight sims. I borrowed the dvd off my neighbuour who uses X-plane to practice flying and navigation for when he flies his real helicopter. And being able to fly into orbit is always fun (but very hard).
Most recent aircraft have 3D cockpits and most of them have fully working instrunments/switches, etc.
Heres a short video i made in a heli http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjBuCaiaqh8

...when you start drinking beers during real life league races
the trains speed probably decreased by about 0.00000000000000000000000000000000001 m/s lol
i wonder how many more of these its going to take before our governments realise making guns available to everyone is a stupid F@#$!!! idea.
why not reverse the wings instead and see if it can take off?
if i was going to spend that much money on sim gear i'd rather get a nice helicopter simulator and stick to my g25, nevertheless i gotsta get me a go of one of these, that things looks like a lot of fun.
Its great to see a real production car in the game, ive been waiting ages for a new car, now im gonna have to wait longer until we get any sort of RWD supercar 
these have been a pretty awesome games so far, i think im going to have to plan a trip to london in 4 years time. I hope skateboarding gets in for 2012 if it hasnt already.
It's a pity we get such crap "live" coverage of the games here in Aus.
Just as an example, can anyone tell me if they think the remark in this video was rascist?

if they can't educate people enough to know how to use them properly then they shouldnt be legal.
thats the only game i wish i still had a PS2 for. Easily the best (and probably the only true) driving sim on any console in terms of car handling physics. You need a wheel to drive properly, just like LFS, and with a G25 its got some of the best forcefeedback ive ever felt, only second to LFS and iracing in my opinion. This game only gets boring because of the crap selection of tracks.
another one i thought of is:
Realflight G4 - Remote Control Plane/Heli simulator. I've tried just about every RC sim i can find and this one (to me anyway) feels closest to the real thing when you use it with an RC controller, and it can make a world of difference if you practice on the sim before trying the real thing (i know from experience). I would give it a very good.

MX Simulator
http://mxsimulator.com/
MX Simulator features the ultimate in motocross gaming physics. Unlike most other MX games, you actually lean into turns and throttle, clutch and shift like on a real bike. Real life actions such as wheelies, endoes, whips, swaps, slides and high-sides happen naturally from the physics of the game in real time, without the use of canned motion capture effects. This game actually feels like riding.
features:
# Complete motorcycle physics model. Steering, suspension, clutch, transmission and power curve work just like a real bike.
# 8 different bikes based on real life dyno, gear ratio and weight information.
# Intelligent computer riders. The computer riders in this game do not cheat. They obey the same physical rules and use the same exact bike as the player does.
# Physically modeled engine noise for both 2 smokes and thumpers.
#Up to 40 riders. Run a full gate if your computer is fast enough! (A 2 GHz CPU will handle 10 riders smoothly, a 1 GHz CPU will handle 3.)
I wouldn't rate this as 'Awesome' compared with the likes of LFS, RBR since its not quite on the same level of development, but its got more accurate physics than rfactor and its a challenge to drive the bike well, so i would personally rate it as 'very good'.

anyone know how often they're adding people? Im dying to get a go of this game
are we looking at the smoke coming out of the chimney?
