    Character-less PCs

    THAT is very true and so only partially proves a point there :-P

    Character-less PCs

    not true, first time I played, I saw Burke pull his pistol out, I immediately went into VATS and killed him before he could get a shot off at Simms, afterwards Simms appreciated I saved his life and also admitted he was getting a little slow in his old age. [Posted: Thu Jan 15, 2009 12:37...

    Why is no one talking about the Watchmen trailer?

    Methinks you give audiences too much credit :)

    Character-less PCs

    How is it right? I would ask that also. This is the ultimate problem with CRPGs: 1) force a response on the character - regardless on how "right" or correct it may seem, maybe I don;t want to weep, maybe I'm a stoic character who is hard as nails... maybe I am emotionless 2) allow...

    New Steam Web Browser

    ?? Steam is a PC app Anyways, nothing new, Steam content viewer is already using an the IE-browser plugin when browsing all product pages, just no control over the address. I imagine now they launch external links and user typed URLs in a steam skinned IE window now, instead of just...

    Character-less PCs

    Well, I wouldn't want the game to do it automatically for me, however. What if I didn't care that the boy was on his own... what If I want my character to cackle maniacally when I pass by his house? Don't force, if it is gonna be in there, make it some optional keystroke or console command or...

    Red ring of shit.

    I dunno about PCs being more reliable. Depends on where you buy one from or what parts you use when rolling your own. In that area, I think durability WILDLY varies. Maintenance of a PC is certainly more demanding also, esp. if keeping on an upgrade path (which I do) - that being, said, I...

    Red ring of shit.

    never buy another console again? mind you - only MS seems to have this terrible durability record. *most* other consoles hold up pretty good. that being said, I am mainly a PC gamer with a Wii and older consoles (i.e. PS2). every time I considered getting a 360, I kept thinking "meh...

    Free antivir for Vista

    I personally like AVG - but Avast is OK too However I turn off any active scanning of email (i turn off email scanning altogether as I use web mail) and files - i usually only turn on a once-a-day full scan early in the morning. I do way to much development and other activities that hits...

    Fallout 3 1.1 patch for PC and Xbox 360, plus Anchorage date

    i installed the patch and saw nothing GFWL related except it did install the GFWL app in my start menu. note, I also do not start Fallout 3 thru the launcher (I generally run it straight from the fallout3.exe) and I bought mine thru Steam. So far... no crashes (played for 2 hours) - as...

    A critic doesn't like Fallout 3 that much

    Well, my problem with the article wasn't that he didn't like F3 (that's fine!) and voted it GOTY (seems commonplace in the industry). My problem is that the reviewer (paraphrasing here severely, but should get the gist) "i didn't like FO3 as an RPG, and, believe me, I know my RPGs, I played a...

    Why do so many people here think First Person excludes RPG?

    Yeah, you have to hit "Attack" and "Firaga" all the way through :-P

    My PC runs up but the monitor stays on the power saving mode

    yeah, that is a good idea, pope - didn't even think of that - i've had slots go bad on me (usually a sign that the mobo is gonna die sooner than later, however - if true)

    My PC runs up but the monitor stays on the power saving mode

    certainly - i mean the GPU is the mostly likely thing to stop working in a video card (in my personal experience, that is)... the fan can run all day long as long as it has power, regardless if the rest of the vid card remotely operates anymore

    Quickswitch / 2 Active Item Slots ?

    You can create hot keys for items - Go into the items section of the pip-boy - hold down ANY of the 1-8 keys - while holding down the key, select an item with the mouse - now that item is assigned to that key example - i go into the pipboy - go to the items screen - hold down the 5...
