I decided I was going to catch up on some games I misssed from last generation - All Xbox, I had my PS2/GC first so. (Still trying to get an NTSC copy of the Warriors for Xbox) Some of these I had sold and regretted, so I'm not as behind as it looks Super Monkey Ball Deluxe Prince Of Persia: The Two Thrones Destroy All Humans 1 and 2 Winback 2 (I'm aware its complete crap, I liked the N64 one because its crappyness made it hysterical and it was good enough to play through for laughs) Crash Nitro Kart (just because I can never have too much crash stuff) Burnout Revenge Call of Cthulhu SSX On Tour Worms 4 Scarface Legend Of Spyro Fight Night Round 3 Flatout 2 Total Price: Free, No way I would pay money for some of those games, I'll certainly give em a shot for free though As far as the 360 goes, I really want to sell Mass Effect (flock that flocking game, I understand its an accomplishment and all, but I have had to restart too many expeditions or whatever they are called too many times because of glitches, not even flocking playable in my opinion, dying for no reason with a full health bar, flock that crap, the first flocking level was done 7 flocking times, I don't know if my copy is flocked up or what, I don't even care anymore) Quake 4, Gears of War, maybe FarCry Evolution, and some other games my brother has with him that I don't even remember owning. I will probably get Burnout Paradise for some stupid reason (As an actual fan of the past games, this new one looks crappy as hell to me, but reviews tell me otherwise) Since I hate giving EA money, I might wait for the new GTA or something. RezHD is a definite purchase too, Can anyone tell me if you can still unlock traveling mode and all that? Thats a dealbreaker if not. Otherwise its an AWESOME remake and I approve of it fully, realize that when you pick RezHD its different from original Rez, they made some changes to the game. Kind of annoying that I can't play the original in HD but I don't own an HDTV anyway. I was going to get DMC4 but its a flocking joke, its just too dumbed down and is more of the same crap anyway. It also got 100 times cornier and gay. Anyway thats my game plan for the next couple months, theres really not that much more than a handful of interesting games coming out for a long ass time. This stuff should keep me busy during the like 10 minutes a week I have to play games because of school and my social life. I never get to just sit down at my own damn house anymore.

My girlfriend keeps bleeding from the censor for obvious reasons, I can't stop flocking her every time I see her, and I don't feel like walking around with a bloody dick all day when its that time of the month, it also stains real bad and eventually all my boxers will be bloody, which would make drunken streaking awkward, and rack up a lot of costs in underwear replacement, speaking of which, I'm too much of a cheapass for condoms (the only time I get them is when I sneak into the nurses office at school and steal the entire bowl) so thats out of the picture, and I have time for sex, or a shower, not sex and a shower most of the time. So how do I tell her that I'm not going to flock her anymore until her censor stops bleeding without sounding like a complete fag for turning down sex. Or maybe I should be asking how to prevent my excessive hornyness? It doesn't help that her birth control causes her bleeding to be all over the place (meaning the date, not excessively you ass) and almost at random. Now that i'm thinking about it, I just realized I flocked her yesterday, got drunk, and flocked her some more, I'm pretty afraid to remove my pants right now. They feel kinda glued on. It also appears my dog has chewed up and scattered about the bloody tissues from the trash that I used to wipe my dick off....ummm....yeah....my mornings always start off interesting. As ridiculous as this post is, The only part thats not true is my considering of flocking her less often, flock that, sex is awesome. (Just remember, You started this thread, You asked, welcome to my everyday life)

yeah I had a feeling it was something obvious like that. Well thanks for the help anyway

Garageink: I used to be a diehard ATi guy, they have some great cards. Personally I would wait/save and try and get an 8800GT, but the 3850 should suit your needs. Any GeForce 8 that isn't an 8800 is pretty worthless for anything but video playback. Don Illmatix: Why the phenom? are you sure you don't want to go intel? Anyway, if I where to do a phenom build for under 1000, heres what I would get. Various bits like DVD+-RW Drive not included. Case:No say in this, personal preference really, and theres nothing wrong with the one you picked, its a classic. Mobo:Leave it, this is one of the better Phenom boards RAM:Normally I would say get the Crucial Ballistix 1066MHz, but this new kit just came out and it overclocks to insane levels, like 1400MHz, even its stock speeds are fantastic. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820208343 HDD: The one you picked is good, I would go for a similar Western Digital but thats mostly because I just have good luck with them Video Card: 8800GT, with a pretty damn good overclock for a factory OC to make things easy. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814500006 PSU: PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610 - Any PSU by this company is fantastic, arguably the best around. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16817703005 CPU: Again, i'm not going to touch this one since there are so many reasons for picking one CPU over another you may have picked the one you did for good reason. CPU Cooler (skip this if your not going to overclock): Thermalright Ultra-120 or Ultra-90, they are awesome coolers and can be had for cheap now. I haven't been reading the CPU cooler news lately though so you might want to search for a roundup article or just keep reading Dailytech as much as possible until the purchase for reviews. I'm willing to bet those two coolers are still at least close to the top of the list though.

Yeah they do, but for some reason none of these sites have a Super Monkey Ball Deluxe save, I did find one but its crappy someone beat like the first set of levels and bothered to upload the save I don't even know for sure if the site I'm thinking of had it, but they had a massive collection so I'm pretty sure they would.

So I used to know of this site that was like a massive collection of xbox saves you could download that people had uploaded (I'm pretty sure you had the option to submit saves), but since I formatted and lost all my bookmarks I can't find it again. Can anyone help me out? It wasn't Xploder/Gameshark/Code Junkies, I'm pretty sure it wasn't run by any company at all. I'm semi sure it was a white and green site and did stuff with 360 for the most part, but just happened to have a ton of xbox saves, I might be wrong on that though I haven't used it in awhile. Specifically I'm looking for a Super Monkey Ball Deluxe save though because theres no way in hell I'm going to be able to unlock Ultimate mode by myself. (heh, the games fun, I just suck at it)

They want your credit card info so that when you return a movie too late, they can just charge some insane price for it to your credit card forcing you to purchase it, and other varied shady business practices. Coming from someone who has been repeatedly ripped off and screwed by them, take my advise and don't rent there. Be happy they denied you. I've been boycotting them since...eh I dunno, 1995? FLOCK Blockbuster. although I did crack and buy my XBox there, only because I had a gift card that I'm pretty sure someone deliberately got me to drive me nuts knowing my stories of the place.

I'd give it a 6 out of 10. Honestly, I would have considered giving it an 8 if it weren't for the fact that they completely flocked up the ending. It IS a remake of The Last Man On Earth/I Am Legend, You CANNOT change the ending of this story. The entire point of the story is the original ending. It's like making a movie about the Titanic where the Titanic doesn't sink. King Kong where Kong lives, The Warriors where they don't make it home, Rocky where he never goes pro, etc etc etc.

haha that was pretty awesome, It was easier at some times than others to tell if some of it was supposed to be making fun of the webcomics and stuff or if it was just random. The random arm and leg flapping was absolutely necessary to this video's success. I feel like I'm 12 years old or something, every time I see that happen in the game its still amusing.

I doubt any hardcore programming is going to happen on the PS3 anytime soon because its so complicated to program for. Damn Cell chip. If it does get fully figured out and some people with some real good coding skills decide to make some stuff it has a lot of potential. The 360 is sort of a pain in the ass because it uses a PowerPC CPU, but at least thats somewhat familiar to people because its what Macs used to use. It probably isn't TOO far off from happening (I'm pretty sure I recall seeing some beta software or at least a demo of something) and they could pull of some impressive stuff on this machine too.

well, as much as I hate to admit it, because rambo is supposed to be mindless violence, this movie was actually pretty damn good I actually paid to see it, twice. The first time I watched it as a movie by itself, and it was alright, but the second time i looked at it in the context of the other movies, and it was awesome, and i realized the significance of the ending. Rambo believe it or not is a statement against the military, i'm too lazy to post a full analysis of the movie right now, but it was a pretty damn good series with a good ending, just like Rocky. I like Rocky, and I like Rambo, other stallone movies are alright I guess, but you can't deny how awesome these two series are, especially Rocky. EDIT: BTW, This movie DEFINITELY breaks new records in violence in movies, an entire battalion + countless villagers die on screen, pretty bad ass, especially some of the crap he pulls off.

It lets you minimize anything to the system tray, which is awesome, because crap bogging up the taskbar drives me insane! Whenever a program has this option I almost always use it. http://www.actualtools.com/titlebuttons/mi...y_program.shtml

still doing it :/ I noticed the FFD icons are not appearing in my tray when I try to play an MP3. Maybe I have to change something in Zoomplayer? I can't seem to find what though everything I think is set right.

Zoomplayer, Why did I not find this app earlier? The video playback options are amazing, especially when teamed with FFDShow. Finally something professional grade! Anyway, My MP3s sound like crap though. Not that its my main MP3 playing app but I'd like something to open individual MP3s quickly from my downloads folder thats not VLC (I like using FFDShow filters to upscale MP3s to 24-bit/96000KHz) It sounds like its playing it in slow motion or something. WTF?! How Can I change it to use the FFDShow filters instead of whatever its using that obviously doesn't work for individual MP3s? This is NOT the same as MP3 streams in video, audio in video works fine. I can't seem to find the right settings/set of settings to fix this anywhere >_<

What does your country have to do with it? If they are screwing with your BT there are ways around that.

Windows Key + R Opens the run command window. Pretty standard right? Well you'll thank me one day when your stuck on a Vista machine where there is no oldschool run command box You can do all sorts of neat things from there.

I don't think people realize that PC gaming isn't really that much more expensive than console gaming. Seriously, Start running your games at 640X480 like your console does, I bet even your 5 year old PC can instantly handle anything again. Even now with HD games, 720p, 1080i, 1080p, That isn't crap as far as PC games are concerned. No crap a machine playing the game at 2560X1600 is going to require more hardware and money. Even 1600X1200 is a decent jump over 1080p (not that p and i even matter in the PC world!) I agree with what was said before though, There is next to no good games coming out anymore, and I don't pay for crap. I DO buy good games though (especially if I want to play online, I'm not going to deal with all the cracking/risks of playing pirated stuff online)

She isn't aware of how I feel about any of this really, She thinks i'm totally happy with her. So when I dump her ass its going to be totally unexpected. (she knows she pissed me off that one day but not that she pissed me off a lot) It's probably the first time she pissed me off too so she hasn't really gotten the chance to draw satisfaction from pissing me off all the time. This post was probably the only place I showed any lack of control emotionally to anyone but myself. The reason I'm low on money is because college started again, my books where like 500 dollars which was completely unexpected (it was like 200 last semester, guess I got really lucky), and I don't have a Job. Should probably get a job. Right now I'm just building PCs for people for money. Yeah I get a lot of money doing this, but I don't exactly have the monopoly on PCs around here so business isn't too common. I'm just gonna dump her, I never really wanted to go out with her in the first place because I knew she was trouble. I was nice enough to give her a chance anyway, and she flocked up, Maybe not as bad as she could have, but she gave me enough of an indication to let me know that she WILL flock up to the fullest possible extent. Thats how I'm looking at it right now.

right now its the lowest its been in awhile at 2.99/gallon at the moderately ripoff gas stations, 3.09/gallon at the high ripoff, and 3.29 at the extreme ripoff, I haven't had a chance to check the cheap gas stations, which are probably like 2.89 (Thorntons, Kentucky based company - my areaish, huzzah!) Its usually between 3.09 and 3.19 though. (Yeah its pretty common for two gas stations only a mile or two apart to have up to a 50 cent difference per gallon around here)

So theres this gas station by me that for awhile now has been selling Ephedrine. You can buy it in small boxes (I'm pretty sure it comes in pill form, since its behind the counter and locked in a box you can't really get a good look at it) after signing a form and showing your ID proving that you are at least 18 (it might be 21 I don't know). Why in the hell would anyone want to buy some Ephedrine? It's such a weird thing to want to buy and take yourself, it's my understanding that its one of those dated medicines that isn't really used for anything much anymore. Are people trying to use it as some kind of extreme energy/concentration pill? It's right next to the caffeine/dieting stuff like Stacker 3s and Hornets. I'm pretty sure this is a trap though, You have to show your ID and fill out a form to get it? Ephedrine is a key component in making crystal meth. I think theres supposed to be some big meth lab around here somewhere too, so what did they set up this thing at a gas station where people can start buying themselves pretty dangerous drugs just so a cop can go collect forms every morning or whatever to eventually lead to an arrest....maybe....if the person is stupid enough? This gas station is pretty close to where the meth lab supposedly is, but this meth lab story was told to me by a cop and could have been complete bullshit and he might have been using it as an excuse to search the car or something (haha but he did call for backup). anyway, I can't find the crap for sale ANYWHERE else, gas station wise anyway, I don't really have time to run around looking for something I have no interest in buying.

I think SWAT 4 uses the Unreal Engine, and if I remember right there was something crappy about packing Unreal Engine games into demos that causes this to happen, I remember it was like this for the UT 2k3/2k4 demos as well. Does it usually happen with PC game demos? No not really, Full versions usually run better because they have been patched a bunch of times, but its usually not that big of a difference like you explained.

Okay so heres what happened, I'm going out with this chick and I'm supposed to pick her up from work. I was 100% dead positive she told me she got off at 11PM, So I show up at 11PM like hey whats up you ready to go? And she tells me to leave and that she got off at 10. So I tell her I'm sorry I guess I forgot because I was pretty sure of myself that she said 11, but I guess I was wrong (It turns out I was wrong). I ask her if she still needs a ride and she says no, bitched about something (I don't even remember at this point what it was about) and then says she called her house and woke up her dad and pissed him off in order to get a ride home. Then she keeps telling me to leave while her biatch ass co-workers are snickering at me and giving me looks and crap. I tell her thats flocking bullshit and leave, barely avoiding picking up some of the kitchen knives and stabbing every last one of those sneering motherflockers, and the bastard flock customers as well just to vent some extra anger. This pissed me off, SO BADLY. I honestly do not understand why, because its hard as HELL to piss me off most of the time. But I'll go over a few reasons as to why I think it pissed me off so bad (I was pretty out of control after this happened) 1. It takes like 15 minutes of difficult driving to get there and a decent amount of gas I don't have money for ATM 2. Instead of pissing off her dad/family, She could have just called me, and I could have been there in 15 minutes as opposed to waiting in the store for an hour or so 3. I was having a crappy flocking day, I felt like crap, like physically, not mentally. 4. This means I did not get any sex that night. (she is extremely good at this, I'll give her that, one of the best I've ever flocked) 5. What are these flocking games? I don't play flocking games. If she was trying to make me feel guilty, it did not work, I didn't feel guilty at all, just pissed off. It gets better though, the next day she calls me and asks me for a ride, I, Like a flocking idiot, Agree to go get her. I tell her how she pissed me off, and she tells me she wasn't trying to make me feel guilty, just piss me off, and she was originally going to not talk to me again for a few days, Again with the flocking games, what is she in high school? But she "missed me" and her dad was on my side and apparently talked her out of it. It gets EVEN BETTER! Today, It turns out she had been calling one of my friends at least before she called me, One of them is a friend of mine who is completely unable to control himself sexually, especially when he is high/drunk (all the time unfortunately, but thats another story), and I'm pretty sure how that would have ended up, and what the purpose of it was. It's also pretty well known by everyone that he is like that. This basically means she lied about a few other things she said. I'm pretty sure she only eventually called me because no one else could do it. Honestly, I have a hard time trusting this chick, She plays too many flocking games, and has a history of cheating on people (I personally know 3 or 4 of them - Hoe fo sho). All my friends are telling me to calm down and stop being irrational, But I really think I should dump her on her ass, I flocking cannot stand games/immaturity. I'm almost positive she is not cheating on me, but she does some things every once in awhile that are kind of suspicious, and im almost dead positive its going to happen eventually, which is why I went into this relationship expecting it to happen, so when it does, it won't suck as bad. I was practically begged into it. Tonight she is going off with her biatch ass coworkers I cannot stand, and expecting me to pick her up from where ever she is so we can chill later. A couple thoughts come to mind: 1. We made plans yesterday, WTF is this. 2. Alright peace, I'm going to my friends birthday party, getting wasted, and you can find your own ride, because I do not EVER drive while intoxicated, Even if I only had one beer. My luck is too crappy, If I tried it I probably would randomly be pulled over and tested, and then go to jail. 3. This chick needs a flocking car of her own. I'm getting pretty sick and tired of driving her ass around everywhere. Especially since shes been flocking up the interior of my car to no end with her cigarettes that somehow end up flocking EVERYWHERE. Someone else who smokes cigarettes on this forum, Please back me up on this, I smoke them too, and it is NOT HARD to keep your crap in the ash tray, even while driving, I got holes burned in my seats and crap and ashes all over almost every part of the car from her, How the flock is she pulling this off? I couldn't make that much of a mess with cigarettes if I tried. Don't get me wrong, I like her a lot, But I really don't have the patience for this crap, I'm basically setting myself up to get flocked over, which is even more crap I don't have time to deal with.

Ares is dead, Last time I tried to use it you get next to no results, all that comes up is crap, the speeds aren't what they used to be either. DC is awesome if you know some good rooms (Is Romster Hub still up?, that place was the crap back in the day) How is eMule? Last time I used it was when all the raids where going on and all the good servers got shut down, is it back to its former glory?

Dude, No way. I agree that its not necessary to enjoy a movie (I still don't have an HDTV and don't really plan on getting one for awhile) but you can't deny that its amazing looking and somewhat enhances the experience depending on the movie because you can see more like in the background for example - Or say Superbad, If you watch that movie in HD you can tell that half the actors where stoned the entire time, their eyes are bloodshot as hell, (Or at least thats my fun little explanation) Or how about something like Planet Earth? Completely different experience in HD. Anyway, Blu-Ray and HD-DVD probably are a waste (The formats, not HD), everyones pretty close to digital distribution which makes the whole thing pointless.

That tank with the nuke cannon thing on it is flocking INSANE, the TAC launcher blew my mind and then I found that thing!
