    Crysis 75% off on Steam

    Is this for Crysis 1 or for Crysis 2? You can buy Crysis 1 for $10 in store not on sale, so it seems strange that it would be 75% off and cost $7... But $7 for Crysis 2 seems far too cheap. :S

    Resident Evil 5

    I thought it was alright, certainly not the best game in the world but I had fun playing through it. Considering it only costs $5-$10 nowadays, I don't really see how you could hate it.

    Crysis 2 Thread

    I installed it today and played a bit of the first mission... You can definitely feel that it's been made for the consoles. So far from what I've played, when you look at Crysis 2 in comparison to Crysis 1, it's not that great. We all had very high expectations after what an epic game the first...

    Undersea Cables Damaged By Japan Earthquake

    Do you have any evidence to support your claims? Just seems like a nutjob's conspiracy theory the way you're saying the telecommunication companies are trying to keep it a secret.

    Good games with very nice graphics?

    Hmm, most of the good ones have already been suggested (+1 for FC2, Dirt2, Grid, Crysis, etc) What about Assassins Creed 2/brotherhood?

    Homefront :@ not happy

    That happened to me when I bought Half Life 2... 18 months ago... Still yet to play it. :( Judging by what everyone's been saying, the only thing you're missing out on in homefront by not being able to play it, is the ability to rant about how awful it is... Though, it seems you've got that...

    Headsets

    After convincing from HSV_Man (the person who I will be using the headset with), I have went with the Creative Fatal1ty headset. And yes, I made sure that it has the 3.5mm audio jacks. I thought they would be easier to use than a USB one, don't have to worry about drivers or software to run the...

    What are you currently playing?

    Been playing Dues Ex (the original) since there's a new one coming out soon, bought it probably a year ago but never actually played it until now. Is it just me or is the aiming in that game absolutely impossible? I swear I would stand 2 metres from a guy, be aiming directly at his chest with...

    Printer. Repair or Replace???

    I picked up a HP multi-function (printer/scanner/photocopier/and I'm sure other stuff, I don't really use it that much) with wireless router connection for like $45 from Office works. If you have a look around for things on sale you can pick printers up for rather cheap. It turned out that...

    Decisions

    Crysis 2 is definitely on my 'Must-Have' list. If it's anything like the first, it's going to be brilliant. Since building a new PC can be a costly process, perhaps you can download the free demo for Crysis 2 and play that for a bit, might tide you over until you get your new machine running.

    Headsets

    I'm currently looking at getting a new headset which will mainly be used for gaming/xfire. I want one that has the frame that sits over your head with soft ear cups, something that is comfortable to wear for hours at a time. Since I'll be using it for gaming it'll be nice if the headphones have...

    Case fan question

    Fan controllers can only slow the fan down. Without a fan controller they will run at full voltage, but a fan controller allows you to adjust that voltage, and as a result adjust the speed at which the fan rotates.

    whats the difference?

    You should be looking for servers that are in the same country/location as you, as that is a major cause for a high ping. Dedicated servers will probably be the first place you should look, however if you are playing with a couple of friends who are in the same area as you, a non-dedicated...

    whats the difference?

    (As far as online gaming) Dedicated servers are 'dedicated' to being a server host for that particular game. Often they're just servers provided by cheap web hosting companies or the company who created/released the game. Non-Dedicated servers are servers that a player themselves has created is...

    mortal kombat banned!?!?!?!

    According to Good Game (aired 15/03/2011) Mortal Kombat will be resubmitting the game unedited to the classification board claiming that the game is 'on par' with other games available on the market.

    mortal kombat banned!?!?!?!

    Australia does not have an Adults (R18) classification for video games. Although the classification guidelines are the same for film, computer games can only receive a max of MA15+. If a game does not meet the MA15+ guidelines, and is considered inappropriate for 15 years olds, the game is...

    Sending Texts from PC

    I'm not sure on a program that does it, but I have seen it on some websites, in particular websites that sell mobile phone credit and such. http://www.mobux.com.au/MyHome/SendSMS.aspx I'd say that's for Australian's only, but it's the only one I'm aware of. I've bought credit from mobux before...

    Far Cry 2 & Punkbuster?

    Lol, that'll be right... now HSV_man can't play. He keeps getting disconnected midway through games and apparently getting this message Matt Hsv says (2:13 AM): this server requires A3912.pcbl please reinstall punkbuster client He downloaded those files and followed the same steps I did. :S

    Far Cry 2 & Punkbuster?

    Thanks for your help Aastii, those files have fixed it, no longer getting kicked. Can finally pwn HSV_man in ranked matches as well as player matches. :D How silly of Ubisoft to lose support for PunkBuster (or lose the contract, whatever), but not release a game patch/updates which enables...

    Far Cry 2 & Punkbuster?

    When I run pbsetup and try to Add Game, there is no option in the drop down box for either Far Cry 1 or Far Cry 2. it goes Enemy Territoy and then F.E.A.R and then Frontline... No Far Cry, and without it in the drop down box I don't know how to add the game to the list? I read somewhere that...
