  1. In a recent interview the CEO of Crytek, Cevat Yerli, said that the engine can run on 360 but the actual game would have to be toned down to play on console.
  2. Conversely, I think people who trash Radiohead are doing so just to go against the grain. Radiohead has been a pretty original and nice sounding band since the beginning. But Thom Yorke's voice does get on my nerves a bit.
  3. GC, everyone has their sick jollies. I'm sure you've got some too.
  4. So instead of studying I decided to play Portal. I just beat it. HOLY crap it was awesome. An amazing end and great credits.
  5. I've already given away my HL2 and Ep. 1 gifts. Sorry. But it's like $10 and your looney is quite powerful now so you won't be getting ripped.
  6. For those of you that don't know (shame on you), the Orange Box is Valve's latest gaming hotness for PC, XBOX 360, and PS3 (which isn't out yet lol at PS3) which includes Half-Life 2: Episode 2 (Ep.2 from here on out), Portal, and Team Fortress 2 (TF2). Ep. 2 is the next chapter in the best FPS series ever. Portal is an experimental type first person puzzle game which totally rules. Team Fortress 2 is the sequel to the original class based teamplay multiplayer shooter. Last night the PC version of the Orange Box went live. Unfortunately I fell asleep while it was unlocking so I didn't get to play then. However, the first thing I did when I got back from school is play some HL2:Ep 2 so I'm maybe about an hour into it at most. I also put about 1.5 hours in Portal so far. And in the past few weeks I've played about 15 hours of Team Fortress 2. The only thing I can so far is that this is one of best game packages ever because it contains so much awesome crap. Also, Valve threw everyone a bone and included Half-Life 2 and Episode 1 in the box for you lame flocks that haven't played those yet. Discuss. No, play the games and then discuss.
  7. The incident Trent was talking about fans being ripped off is when the record company charged a hell of a lot more for Year Zero than other albums simply because "NIN fans would pay the extra."
  8. His versatility is awesome. I love the work he's doing with Saul Williams.
  9. After 18 years of being tied to Interscope records, Trent Reznor is now finally free of Interscope records and can do what he wants with this music. It's cool that major groups like Radiohead and NIN are pushing forward in this digital music age. In the past Trent has expressed much anger with how Interscope rips his fans off and has promoted that they pirate his music. I'm not sure how he is going to make money from any of this but the music needs big name pioneers like NIN and Radiohead. http://nin.com/ And I'm posting this because NIN is like my most favorite band ever in the whole world.
  10. Uh...I'm not clicking. Not sure what the rules are on this.
  11. I'd rather pirate a game than buy it used. I high five you for that. Last time i bought a game was about 2 years ago. I really hate this mindset. I really do. I used to be like that though until I realized how poorly PC gaming was doing. I can walk into any electronics store near here and pick up almost any new release so its all good.
  12. I remember reading something similar. I don't have time to look it up so hopefully Thag does.
  13. Sounds like a smart way to do things.
  14. If its more than 150, then no thanks. Most of the 8800GTS are 200 and up. Unless you know of a site that will have them for 150. Then don't upgrade till you can get an 8800 is my suggestion. Supposedly there will be a refresh of the hardware and the new midrange will be as powerful as 8800 but it's supposed to happen in 2008.
  15. The entirety of The Story of Ricky is on Google video. I downloaded it from there but haven't had a chance to see it yet. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=41...h&plindex=0
  16. Sony should of thought TWICE before including a Blu-Ray drive, there was nothing wrong with a plain DVD drive which is alot cheaper than Blu-Ray drive. I would play a 3-DVD game rather than a Blu-Ray game for the sake of reliability. Now that Sony are now selling them for half it should be worth, they are not making profit from any console sold. Anyway, we'll never know if it was a Sony fanboy that came up with the "Bungie Leaves Microsoft" rumour. Actually, I think the Blu-ray drive is all the PS3 has going for it at this time. And I doubt it was a Sony fanboy who came up with that Bungie leaving Microsoft because it turned out to be true. Those wheels were set in motion way before Halo 3 was released.
  17. Maybe he'll be another one hit wonder like that DeadDrop dude.
  18. I hope he reaches that post count soon. We need more blood.
  19. Maybe he's into rough sex and being dominated?
  20. HAHAHAAHAHAAAHAHA! The way his body goes stiff is hilarious.
  21. I guess I'm late then. Welcome Thaggomizer. Nice to see someone who uses proper capitalization and punctuation. Also, a Far Side fan!!!! I like you already.
  22. You should save up for more than a 8600GTS. Something with the power of an 8800GTS should be the minimum upgrade, especially by this Christmas. Seriously.
