Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for PC is now a LEGIT console port

I didn't express myself clearly, I see. The entire point of the post was that from the developer/publisher's perspective the two are functionally equivalent. Pirate it and they notice you with mild annoyance. Protest, petition and boycott, they'll notice you and send out some PR person...

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for PC is now a LEGIT console port

After all, they've already demonstrated their contempt for the platform by foisting these changes on us in the first place. They obviously don't care what this particular subset of their customers wants, so why should we support them? This begs the question: not buy, or pirate out of spite...

Dragon Age Character Creator

Well, it looks to be bioware's first serious RPG since Shadows of Amn, for one. Check out Giantbomb's preview video, if you're curious. It clocks in at around twenty minutes and the commentators can be brain-hurtingly insipid at times but it does a pretty good job of showing off the gameplay...

Dragon Age reviews and press

Well you can rule out securom and online authentication according to this: http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/n...-Origins-DRM-Announced Granted it isn't terribly verbose on what they're actually using (skeptical of the simple 'disk check' explanation, myself), but it sounds promising.

suggestions for home studio program

I've been helping a musician friend of mine build a computer to run a home recording studio. Now, he knows music, and I know PCs, with little overlap of our knowledge bases. The only dedicated music hardware we have for the PC is the M-Audio Delta44. He seemed dead set on using protools (from...

My best friend from highschool and I were playing coop with q2 just a week ago. Still loads of fun and we still take more damage from each other than our enemies. :)

Advice for dying Northbridge fan?

I have an nforce 4 board for socket 939. The northbridge fan has started stuttering, running at fluctuating rpm levels and basically making a HUGE amount of noise. It is by far the noisiest thing in my case right now (and I have a rather loud sapphire x1950pro in there). My question is...

TF2 >>> Halo 3 MP

I didnt mean 8v8... thats a bit crowded for my taste. 4v4 is the minimum for me. Anyway, the TF2 maps seem to all have a specific playercount in mind. Get much below 12 and the maps are too empty. The real strength of TF(C or 2) is the complex interaction between all the different classes...

GBA AC adapter work with DS?

Thanks for your help guys. Actually I found that Nintendo did make an adapter for it, but it was sold only in Japan apparently. I broke down and bought a NiMh battery kit so im good to go.

TF2 >>> Halo 3 MP

The 360 version is restricted to 8v8 with lag problems. The real issue here is that a cable modem's upload cant handle 15 clients. TF2 also NEEDS at least 8 for a fun game. Halo can be played with 3 or 4. The PC version runs perfectly BTW :D

GBA AC adapter work with DS?

I just bought a used GBA (the original non backlit one) but the thing didn't come with an AC adapter. I'm not really looking forward to burning AA batteries if I don't have to, but they dont seem to sell the GBA accessories in B&M stores anymore. Anyone know if I can use a DS AC adapter...

Hunting for a Keyboard

Professional gamers generally use whatever products their sponsors tell them to *rolls eyes*. Anyway, the tarantula would have been my first choice as it seems to be exactly what I'm looking for, but its WAY out of my price range. 35$ and I'm willing to gamble on a keyboard (supplement in this...

Hunting for a Keyboard

Its really odd that even 'gamer' keyboards don't address this. Anyway, thank you all, I took your suggestions as starting points for my research and settled on a Wolfking Warrior (largely because it doesn't have a driver install (and its not hideous like the Ideazon Fang)). Should arrive in...

Hunting for a Keyboard

Well I did have a job at a Japanese porn studio... anyway thats just what the game requires. Some games just require multiple key presses (although 2 crouches and a lean key might be a bit excessive). AFAIK, the fact that a keyboard is usb has nothing to do with the lockouts. The one I'm...

Hunting for a Keyboard

Its what happens when you press multiple keys at once and one or more of them get 'lost' and don't register at all. Every keyboard I have ever used did this to varying degrees. It happens most often for me right now in Stalker. When pressing shift and control to go into low crouch, WADS to...

Hunting for a Keyboard

Ive finally gotten fed up with all the lockouts on my current keyboard and am ready to drop some cash on a replacement. The most important criteria are thus: NO LOCKOUTS, and price. I'd prefer something no greater than around 50$ and extra functions really don't matter to me. The lockouts...

Whats Better? Nvidia FX5500 or Nvidia 6200? (Both 256)

Its not about the memory bandwidth. Its about the quality of the gpu. Put simply, the geforce FX series was a pile flaming poo. They are basically incapable of running games that use shader model 2.0 (to say nothing of 3). I wouldn't be surprised if the 6200 used allot less power in addition...
