    As far as I'm concerned,Fallout 3 never happened. *spoilers*

    The game is chock-a-block full of 'facepalm' moments like those already listed, but I did enjoy it a bit on my first run through. I don't feel much desire the replay it though, it's too...generic. The tranquil music you hear when wandering sounds just like that of Oblivion, and is not very...

    Is robot sex right around the corner?

    I remember that Outer Limits episode too. Probably because I first saw it as a horny teen.

    Anyone else play Crysis: Warhead?

    It was pretty short, but I was expecting that. Not much shorter than CoD4 though. I enjoyed it but it is not something that will stick in my mind as a particularly memorable experience.

    HD-capable laptop

    Playback of full 1080p can be achieved now if using the gpu for playback. If using the CPU, then ideally a dual core at 2.4GHz or above is nice. Here is the ONLY question I really need to ask you: What is your budget? Budget narrows it down from hundreds of options you may not be able to...

    High Fidelity anyone?

    Well, I only have a 3-4 year old Creative 5.1 setup, but it still rocks as far as I am concerned. LCPM 5.1 like on Flags or our Fathers Blu-Ray, and the HD audio on the Rambo movie rock hard. I supposed it would be even better with a proper setup.

    Gun ownership thread #2323344

    Why does it so often come to this type of insult/claim in these debates I have seen on the net? Now, continuing with the theme makes me guilty of derailing also, but it wasn't the fault of all the European people who laid down before Hitler. The governments were the ones who caved in, and even...

    Max Payne movie trailer

    I'm going to go out on limb and guess that they will be dreams or nightmares, induced by [spoiler:33420ff071]being forced to overdose on Valkyr[/spoiler:33420ff071]. edited for addition: I just watched the 1080p trailer on my big screen (helps to pick out the details). I see one man being...

    Bioshock

    It was genuinely fun and exciting the first time round for me, but the replay value is limited. As BN said, the setting and graphics are lovely.

    Gun ownership thread #2323344

    Personally I wouldn't change it, but then I am a firearms enthusiast myself. I'd love to live in somewhere like Montana and go plinking in the hills.

    Rambo, violence?

    I enjoyed the cheesiness of Rocky VI. As for his physical condition, that is down to working out and using Human Growth Hormones (got caught in Australia).

    Gun ownership thread #2323344

    Well, I am not American, but I can tell you that gun ownership there is 'tied to' the constitution and to that whole declaration of independence/mistrust of government thing. It's a part fo the culture, the nation was forged out of a fight for it's freedom from a tyrannical state (my boys, the...

    Will Wright on Spore: 'it’s too much hype'

    Got my copy today. I'm not going into it expecting a masterpiece, just some good simple fun that I can pick up and put down as and when I feel like it.

    Rambo, violence?

    I must admit to being fairly shallow and simple, but I like watching the movie just for the surround sound, which is excellent on the Blu-Ray version. The old British bomb going off, and the one .50 cal shot to get the troop's attention are amazing. As for the film itself, I agree that it seemed...

    Rare Chernobyl Clip - Vladimir Shevchenko

    I've read a fair bit about these first workers and soldiers being exposed to danger, but this is the first time I have seen footage of them having to dig underneath the core...the core. Damn the man that sent them in there, somebody in that administration knew just what they had sentenced these...

    Who'd win? Terminator or Robocop?

    I am going to copy a post of my own from another messageboard, when the same topic arose: (this is in response to another person's post) With basic Propellant based weaponry? Have you watched the Terminator films at all? Care to guess just how many times they can be shot at with little or...

    Video Card recommendations

    1GB on a card like that is a useless gimmick, really. You need a 512 bit bus to make the most of it, and the card would need to be faster too.

    Doom 4?

    Haha, yes, the flashlight issue was very silly, but I suppose they wanted to scare people with creepy buggers jumping out at you from walls.

    Don't Buy the Hype

    Fallout 3: What's with all the hype? Heh. I shouldn't be surprised really, considering how they are marketing the game.
