ID be tempted just to get the Win 8 Pro upgrade edition for £25 and use the downgrade license to exchange it for Win 7 Pro for free.

Quote from Racer Y :

Good point. But they can only be as terrible as the consumers let them. if the sheep would realize they could sell the system for more on craigslist or something, you'd see gamestop raising their offers.
As far as screwing developers...That's kinda like saying used car salesmen screw auto makers out of money ain't it?

I hear the crap they intend on pulling with this new X-box is going to put a dent in places like Game stop.

Yes but M$ have backtracked on almost everything on the Xbone 180 so nobody even knows what the hell they are buying when it comes out.

The last update has made GT feel like Forza a bit. Pretty much killed lift off oversteer on most of my setups and are all needing reworked now ffs.

Far Cry 3 is the game you want. Has went straight to my top 3 games ever and probs best game this gen by far.

Was going to choose Dishonored or Hitman as a "meh" game of year until i got this, this is everything FC2 was aiming to be and more.

Story mode might be a little generic but the sandbox is where the fun is. Been playing for over 10 hours now and only done 2 or 3 story quests, just been assing about exploring and liberating areas instead and is great. Best stealth OR shooting this year whatever way u want to play.

Runs decent on HD 5850 and 4GB ram on high settings @ 1080p, with higher settings just adding far too much blur and lag without making any visual improvement.

Hey there, Im taking a break from internet and gaming for a while and thought id sell my pc as its never used and iv got a laptop for basics if i ever need to get online.

I need some help putting a price on the thing.

It has:-

i5 2500 non k

4GB ram

2x 500GB hard drives

ATI HD 5850 1GB.

No Os installed, Well has Win 7 pro on it but il be keeping key.

Is just over 6 months old.


The thing is in a cheap case with a 450W power supply as i had it in a htpc case with 650W silent psu that my mate just bought. Its rarely been used and i think i only played Amnesia and a bit of Dwarf Fortress on it.

Its not been used at all since getting put back in the big case and is collecting dust under the stairs.

Quote from sinbad :

Weight shift is probably my biggest gripe. Tyres do not load/unload enough as the car is turned/braked/accelerated. Lift-off oversteer does not really exist in GT5.
Then there is the way cars handle jumps and kerbs far too gently. You could take the most stiffly sprung car over a huge inside kerb, and it just soaks it up and whilst the wheels may lift off the road a bit, they will just settle immediately on landing.

It's still fun enough, though.

Lol it sounds like you got GT and Forza mixed up, Forza is terrible for soft, no lift off oversteer handling while i feel GT5 is more neutral.

GT5 is still a console game but is probably one of the best handling console "sims" atm unless u goto the more hardcore Race Pro which is BS with a controller.

Its only really when using the arcadey racing medium or soft tyres that the handling gets numb/boring..

Quote from Epicguy222 :

It's such boring.. and it such hard to understand... I look at the car settings and im like ''Uh... wtf?'' Too Complicated for me. I don't know why it got so many prizes...

LFS was released about 10 years ago in a time where the general public wasnt retarded.

Also "ug wtf"? about the settings... They are labeled like in every other car game u can change those settings, Its not the games fault if u dont understand basic car mechanics.

Theres always a my little pony game for all u "next gen" gamers out there where challenge is too much and makes u want to hide under a cover with ur bronies and teddies...

Quote from mrbogeyman :

Maybe not the right thread to ask this....but it does apply to Forza 4...

I didn't see an Xbox 360 thread after a quick glance thought the Hardware forums.

I'm in Malaysia, and 'chipped' Xbox 360s are the norm over here. So, I have a chipped Xbox, meaning I can buy local copies. I did see about getting non-chipped, but it is more unusual.

Anyway, I assume I am totally screwed when it comes to putting my Xbox 360 online and getting content updates?

Not if u have the latest hacked firmware.

They would be better dropping the price to £10 for S2.

£24 for a 10 year old game with 1 expansion is taking the piss, This isnt Xbox LIVE...

I think they forgot to add the rpg folder to the install disk...

Quote from flymike91 :

new apartments use less energy because of advanced insulation and double pane, gas filled windows. They use energy efficient utilities. Especially in cold climates where the heater is run for most of the year you can save a lot of money. Also, there's no reason to repair buildings that were low quality when they were new when building them better the first time saves even more money down the road.

I doubt people would be willing to switch to a new building if it was a case of saving 20% on heating a year, At the cost of $50000 per flat to rebuild

Save say $200 a year if u spend $50k doesnt add up...

I think the phones ****ed. Its either u installed loads of crapware to make ur battery only last 10 hours vs 350 standby on Nokia site, or its broken inside and causing the crashes anyway.

Also cheap fake mem cards can randomly corrupt or make phones slow.

Even my old N96 lasted roughly 2-3 days between charges with decent use and it was supposed to be terrible on battery.

U installed any Symbian updates from Nokia? I updated my n96 from v13 to v31 Os version about a year ago.

Ill give u free LFS if u sent a pic of ur mums jugs with my name on them...

How a ddos going to get my data? Dont u need to be able to access the system to get the data which a ddos stops?

Quote from Bean0 :

Without online access, the demo is a demonstration of what exactly ?
There is pretty much nothing to do offline in LFS.

August 2002 I think.

Physics, If its online racing u want then there are plenty busier places than LFS... 2012 n all tht...

Best thing would be to remove online from the demo altogether...

When did LFS become freeware, With a few extra options available if willing to pay an optional fee?

Maybe a fresh install of windows since it looks like u have disabled loads of services and other crap...

U also installed the latest DirectX 9?

Quote from legoflamb :

picked up GT5 again, and something seems different. Are the brakes less sensitive since the update?

I used to have to run with 2 in the front and would lock up at full brakes on sports hard, now even 5 in the front and comfort soft tires don't lock up.

Yea, I already & have always used brakes set to 7 f/b as they always too spongey... With "full brakes" its the same as having pedal to floor, which would lock up most cars anyways.

Is like how trottle it analogue without TC... Brakes are too... "Sim" n all tht shite...

Better buying S2 first as no point spashing out cash for hardware only to use on a demo...

Y u no post ip?

a boy says to his mum
i've got the biggest cock in the nursery,is it because i'm black?
"no" she replies,"its because your 25 and a fooking retard"

A Scouser went to a prostitute. She said, ‘Do you want a b*** job?’ He said, ‘Will it affect me
