I would of clubed the skater punks in the face. Afer I used my pepper spray. I live around those stupid punks who put people in danger including themselves by skating in the streets acting and they dont even care if cars are trying to pass or not. They own the road. He did pretty good in holding his temper over all. It has to be frustrating to him that hes having to babysit for their no good parents.

Good review.. I was happy to see Vista this time. Back to the cards, while yeh Id like to see more performance from this board. I have to admit for the price its a very good product for the money. The only drawback is not knowing what nvidia has up their sleeve.

What Makes me angry is they want even admit to their own mistake. At least show some integrity.

What we need to do is go out and buy anyone of our friends thats got a 360 a copy of the game if they dont already have it.

Yeh he was quoted as saying playing a pshycopathic killer clown that suffers 0 remorse started to really get to him.. I guess it makes sense in a way because even though hes acting he has to tap into the dark side of humanity to put himself in the mind of a character like joker. I think for once this could of been accidental overdose. Of course we will never know for sure. But my heart does go out to his family.

Yes, I am saying its time for Vista exclusively.. Reading xp benchmarks mean nothing to me.. Vista has been out a year.. I have never seen it take so long for pro sites to upgrade so we can see performance numbers.

Its time to move on.. xp was nice but its time to forget about it.

Blu-ray or HD-DVD both use the same codecs. They both look great. The only reason i dont personally use blu-ray is sony's tactic to shovel the format using the ps3 as a trojan horse. Sony having even more pull over movie media.. and that is a very bad thing.

So I went with HD-DVD and I couldnt be more happy with it.

They were drinking.. horsing around and being teenagers were not thinking that they could be really hurting the little girl.. Obviously they did not mean to kill the girl. They tried to revive her several times and thought she was "faking". This is a case of normal tenage idiocy and its unfotunate the poor girl lost her life.. looking at the photo of the so very young girl with tears in her eyes makes me sad.. she will live with that forever on her conscious.

I am not quite sure what you meant there. But yes I am sick of blizzard. It's obvious they will never be able to balance the game and because of the Resilience stat they have almost made the game into two seperate games. Prior to BC I enjoyed being able to pvp and pve now they both require different gear sets instead of just stacking stats that contribute to your class. Either way I am waiting on the next game with hopes they might finally get it right.

I wasnt really a fan of crysis. And for the record Bioshock lived up to and exceeded any hype it got as far as I'm concerned.

I think Console gaming will continue to hurt PC gaming. The only exception will be RTS games and MMO's. The reasons are because TV's are becoming more like computer monitors in terms of resolution so that is 1 advantage that PC gamers dont have anymore. The other is the Price/Performance Ratio. A great video card alone costs 500-600 dollars not counting any other parts. Consoles have dedicated hardware that allows devs to focus on optimizing their games completely for the specific hardware and this is the biggest draw back of all for a PC gamer, a lot of games are released with bugs, play at low FPS and other problems that you just dont see on a console.

So with that said I dont think PC gaming will die completely out of course, what I do think is that as the transition to DX 10 and vists is completed PC gaming will rise back up to the challenge until the next console is released that has a Mouse and keyboard, then its a different story.

People who are voting for Ads need to go play a game with an add. It is freaking gay id pay 20 dollars more before i buy a game with adds in it. I played the price of persia add supported version and I had to un install it because of periodically making me watch a freaking mc donalds comercial.

Get used to it, im sick of the whining about DRM, what do you expect when there are more people who ilegally load a library of games on their pc every year costing the companies tons of money, something had to be done about it so they did.. I would of rather them of used an account type system to register your key to and perhaps even use steam to register your key too, but either way I cant really blame them.. I may be a bit biased, I host lan parties several a year and it makes me sick to see people with 100s of gigs of games they didnt pay for while the hard working folks pay for their legal versions. I would stop all ilegal games at my lan parties but that would literally kill the lan party there are so many pirates.

The reason they do that is because it costs them money to set up a seperate out of children's reach area of a store for just that one game. Its the same reason you dont find playboy in the comic/coloring book section of a store.

I really hope ATI released an update to the 2900 series because its rediculous how they are performing atm given their development time. I hope this isnt a growing trend with AMD as it seems to be lately. Seems like they are constantly playing catch up and we need them to be competative to keep nvdia from selling 6-800 dollar graphics cards which I think is above and beyond rediculous

I agree with the person who said the Line has to be drawn. I play violent video games but they usually are war like scenarios. This game is just a murderous fantasy. It may be harmless in the hands of a sane person but take an adult or child with psychological problems and then we have another columbine on our hands and tons of politicians screaming to ban even the good games out there.

» my opinion
Im not sure about development but I do have an opinion on whats killing game sales atm. Me and a lot of my gamer friends are in a hardware transition on the pc, with high end video cards costing upwards of 500 dollars now its really hard to save for hardware costs and at the same time buy the games you want to play, at least it is for people on a college type budget. There are several titles id like to be playing including stalker and many more coming november that a lot of people just cant afford that 500 dollar video card to play. With vista and dx10 now out we are stuck in a software os change as well. All of these costs are taken out of our gaming budget.

in opposition to a lot of gamers, I hate piracy. I admit when i was younger i did not see it as ilegal it came from the " Magical " internet. When i went to college and did programming for myself i realised how much work devs put into these games. I personally have vowed to never play a game I did not purchase. I also agree to some extent that the last few released of pc games have been extremely unfinished and bugy. Devs could just release their games via steam. Its pretty secure.

Im really sick of the Anti Microsoft Crap floating around in todays youth because its the cool thing to do. I know most are young but you have no idea how much of a pain in the ass computers were before Microsoft. And lets face it imagine a world dominated by Macs in which your forced to buy their hardware. I shake in horror just thinking about it.
