Having our own live chat forum is one of the feature that we have talked about having on the new site.

So, Skype won't kill the site forever.

#471, by Deadpool on Mon 20 Jul 2009, 08:09 am

#448, by Matt on Tue 09 Jun 2009, 06:35 pm

I actively recommend AGAINST Dell laptops after having been through 2 of them, both of which were/are annoying and poorly built.

MacBook Pro is what you want. Or a ThinkPad.

#447, by Deadpool on Tue 09 Jun 2009, 11:52 am

Even worse! Apparently accidental death due to autoerotic asphyxiation gone wrong! He had a rope wrapped around his neck AND another around his balls and was mid-whack when his day took a serious turn for the worse.

It kinda blows my mind that this is the way the dude from Kung Fu had to go out. Bill, too, even... :(

You may mull this over. If you're serious about a new compy chat me up at this week's YRPG.

#440, by Deadpool on Thu 04 Jun 2009, 05:55 am

I have two monitors, I don't really play computer games, but I will need something that runs 3D studio max and Zbrush well. Let's say something under $1200.

#439, by viper on Thu 04 Jun 2009, 04:12 am

So i picked up Mass Effect. I am only a few hours in but already I love this game...the fluidness of the RPG choices during the conversations is great and the excellent voice acting has me hooked. Though the great big 'what-if' has me wondering if I should have started playing as an arrogant renegade first instead of my current goody two-shoes hero. Either way..its already worth its $20.

If bioware makes the new star wars game anywhere near this quality its going to be a great play. Here is some new Old Republic eyecandy from E3...I found it full of win. http://e3.gamespot.com/video/6210694/?hd=1

#438, by .aero on Thu 04 Jun 2009, 02:36 am

Arby: added you!

Deadpool: There's a pretty big price spread out there... and I can get you the "best bang for the buck" in almost all but the "absolute least expensive" category.

$600 or less?
$800?
$1,000?

I expect you'll be doing a certain amount of gaming, running 2 monitors all the time, teh intarwebs...

How much monitor do you have?

#437, by arby on Tue 02 Jun 2009, 10:03 am

I have a skype account too, it's ArbyBean.

I might re-install it eventually. ;)

#436, by Deadpool on Tue 02 Jun 2009, 06:12 am

.aero could you to quote me a price on a new computer? Something awesome that will be the best thing always, but won't break me financially. There might be an Arby's samich in it for you.

#435, by Matt on Mon 01 Jun 2009, 11:53 pm

Okay, I downloaded and installed this Skype thing. How the heck to I use this piece of shit? Can I set it to minimize to the tray?

My "Skype Name" is beanzen and my acccount email is "sky pe at lemur pants dot com" (corrected, durr), so add me you fuckers.

#434, by .aero on Mon 01 Jun 2009, 03:22 pm

Because it's more fun typing at you in person than talking to a webpage.

A webpage that I can't easily edit.

#433, by .aero on Mon 01 Jun 2009, 03:18 pm

I'll get you to build me a new compy eventually Arthur, or do some upgrades to my current one.

#424, by Deadpool on Wed 27 May 2009, 05:43 pm

It's a Radeon X800 series, and yes I haven't upgraded my computer since Wham! was topping the charts.

#423, by .aero on Wed 27 May 2009, 05:38 pm

Deadpool: If your video card has any type of color enhanciness features, turn them off.

Last I checked, NVIDIA called theirs "Digital Vibrance"

ATI refers to them as simply "Color" in their overly named Catalyst Control Center.

If you have an Intel video card, get me to either build you a new computer or find you a better laptop.

#422, by viper on Wed 27 May 2009, 02:55 pm

I just hope the fact that Intel keeps pushing forward. Keeps me in a job. I would also like to see some new releases drive down the i7 prices by Christmas.

#421, by .aero on Wed 27 May 2009, 10:20 am

Any guess on how much an 8-core Nehalem-EX Xeon with 24MB L2 cache will cost?

I'm guessing they'll start around $2K.

#418, by Deadpool on Sat 23 May 2009, 10:36 pm

Oh I spelled it "loose" instead of "lose", that's funny. Anyway my monitor is fucking up, there's like this red pixelation thing happening to it, I have a dual screen setup and it is happening to both so it leads me to believe that it isn't the actual monitors. What should I do?

Oh, PING is a suite of tools, one of which is GParted (the partition editor). If you just want to deal with the partition editor and nothing else, you can also get GParted on a bootable ISO - http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php

#415, by Matt on Sat 23 May 2009, 04:58 pm

Viper: Use PING http://ping.windowsdream.com/

Burn the ISO to a CD and then boot off of it. It's a great, free Linux-based partitioning tool (even has a GUI) and I've recently used it to extensively repartition both of my computers.

#414, by viper on Sat 23 May 2009, 07:44 am

Disk Partitioning: anyone know a good program that I could pick up for free that would allow me to combine 2 partitions into one?

#413, by Matt on Sat 23 May 2009, 04:15 am

Maybe you should tighten it up, then.

#391, by Matt on Thu 14 May 2009, 10:44 pm

JASON - I installed Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty Jackalope" on my laptop. Everything worked... EXCEPT the wireless adapter.

I have the Broadcom card BCM4306 rev 03.
It seems this card is particularly persnickety. It's SUPPOSED to work out of the box, but it doesn't. When I list the network adapters from the terminal, it shows up as DISABLED, and I have no clue how to enable it.

It's rather frustrating, and the forums and wiki are a mess.

You have any idea how to get this card working on my system?

If not, would you happen to know if Arch has the same problems with this card?

As a final "fuck you" I saw the one where Striker is walking around.

#383, by Matt on Tue 12 May 2009, 03:26 pm

I saw the one where Wolverine was trying to get drunk in Japan.

The third is where "Deadpool's" head is picked up by a dude in a black coat and he says "Who are you supposed to be?" and the camera pans back and it's Ryan Renolds!!! OMGZORZZ!!!!

#382, by .aero on Tue 12 May 2009, 03:18 pm

Goddamnit.

Star Trek is awesome though.

#379, by Matt on Tue 12 May 2009, 12:11 pm

Me too, and I agree 100%

I'm actually surprised I liked the Star Trek movie as much as I did, because I actually hate the Star Trek franchise, but it ended up being a damn good movie.

#378, by Deadpool on Tue 12 May 2009, 12:10 pm

When I first got the leaked version of Wolverine I said to myself "I'll go see it when it comes out in theaters and take a couple of people, that way the universe will balance itself out". And just as I suspected I wound up hating it, so instead of paying for tickets I snuck people in to see it, hoping in some way this would punish the movie.

It is astounding how poorly made this thing is, all the CGI and green screen stuff was very obvious. It has the dumbest fucking ending of all time which seems only fitting since the whole thing was so fucking idiotic! For those who haven't seen it Sabretooth and Wolverine kiss and make up on top of a cooling tower as it collapses, why? As it turns out Sabretooth, oh I'm sorry Victor there is actually no fucking way of identifying Liev Shriever as Sabretooth. Anyway it turns out he just misses his little brother and in fact loves him so much that he went along with the main villain's convoluted plan in order to get him back. Arguably the single greatest feud in comics history reduced to this barely coherent mess.

Then Logan gets shot in the head with an adamantium bullet and somehow looses his memory, the end. Fuck this movie.

#377, by .aero on Tue 12 May 2009, 10:54 am

So, I've seen the Star Trek and Wolverine movies.

I think the Wolverine movie reminded me why I stopped seeing movies so often.

Star Trek was good though.

#344, by viper on Fri 17 Apr 2009, 09:06 pm

The previous star wars MMO did do a horrible job of providing the players with what they wanted. Yet I do know people that are still playing the game because its star wars, and that's enough for them. Thankfully this new one is coming from Bioware, which is notorious for excellent quality games. (much like blizzard was before the WoW release). They seem be keeping with the current working formula and just adding their own flair to it. To be sure, there are many landmines to avoid...but so far I like what I see.

#343, by Matt on Fri 17 Apr 2009, 12:17 pm

At this point, I think it's going to take a huge franchise on the level of a Star Wars or similar, that has a huge cult following, to even make a blip as a WoW contender.

The thing with Star Wars is that apparently the previous attempts ain't all that great. I wouldn't know from personal experience, but that seems to be the buzz near as I can tell. At some point how much can you tarnish the reputation of the franchise to where people lose faith in it?

#342, by viper on Fri 17 Apr 2009, 10:19 am

Currently I am waiting for the new star wars MMO to be released. And I hope they take their time with it. I think it has some serious potential.

#339, by Matt on Thu 16 Apr 2009, 09:05 pm

Okay, now that I look a little closer -- I guess that actually makes WoW EIGHTY (80!) times bigger than CoH, and 10-times the size of the second-place Massively-Multiplayer game.

In fact, you really can't compare WoW to anything else in that space... it's like Microsoft in its heyday and there isn't even a scrappy little Apple, Inc. around to kick up some dust. There's just a bunch of random Linux builds getting distributed through Bulletin Boards while the Blizzard Guys (TM) are riding around in giant gold-plated cars encrusted with diamonds.

#338, by Matt on Thu 16 Apr 2009, 09:00 pm

I have no idea how big Blizzard's staff is, but I'd be inclined to agree with you re: them having more than 50 on the janitorial staff.

I do think the 50 people is accurate for CoH, however, because let's face it -- it's a niche game and like 1/10 the size of something like WoW, and that's not an exaggeration (note that I'm not a WoW advocate by any means, as I refuse to play any subscription-based game).

I mean, City of Heroes doesn't even qualify for the "big boy" chart here: http://www.mmogchart.com/Chart1.html

They're on the Tier 2 subscriber chart witho only about 140,000 subscribers http://www.mmogchart.com/Chart2.html (as compared to 11+mil at this point for WoW).

So yeah, I can definitely believe that a game like City of Heroes would only need about 50 folks to run things.

#337, by viper on Thu 16 Apr 2009, 07:11 am

I came across this little tidbit about City of heroes. http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/cityofheroesarchitectedition/news.html?sid=6207897

50 people? Is that accurate? I bet Blizzard has more than that on its janitorial crew.

#336, by viper on Tue 14 Apr 2009, 08:07 pm

#331, by Matt on Mon 13 Apr 2009, 02:09 pm

It's not so much the noise from the case as it is the fact that the CPU fan and the GPU fan and the PSU fan and the hard drives will all be exposed to the open air, which means that there is nothing damping the hard drive seeks and access clicks and the spinning of those small, high RPM fans on the CPU, GPU, etc... with a traditional case, especially a nicer one, all of those internal noises are damped by the casing.

#330, by wildfire on Mon 13 Apr 2009, 01:48 am

The noise is not to bad, the giant fan on top is huge, but doesnt need to be able to dice incoming fowl to move air decently.

#329, by Matt on Mon 13 Apr 2009, 01:27 am

Holy shit. That is the damndest looking case I've ever seen. Awesome if you swap out parts a lot though. However, I'd be concerned about the noise, as all the various system fans will be exposed at all times.

#328, by wildfire on Sun 12 Apr 2009, 01:37 pm

Hahaha, that is the same case I am getting for my next computer. If you haven't seen one in person, then I suggest you do as they are much more impressive.

And Satan, the only thing that could make that shirt any better is if the last combo was "X, Square, Triangle, L1/R1 + Triangle, L1/R1 + Square, X, Square, Triangle, L1/R1 + X, O, X, Square, X."

#327, by viper on Sun 12 Apr 2009, 04:35 am

So im starting to look at computer equipment again. I want to do a daisy chain of upgrades throughout the rest of the year. My first step is to get a new computer case. My current one isn't long enough to hold my video card and a 3rd hard drive(the card extends into the last hard drive bay) Since I am getting a new case I'd like something appealing enough to get it up off the floor and onto the desk without looking like a monolith from 2001.

I like the idea behind the skeleton case...

Back to the video game topic. (we could really use some thread type forums....)

I haven't spend the cash on fallout 3 yet(I'm still working my way though 1 & 2) but have been looking for something to ween myself off of warcraft. I have gone back and installed Oblivion, Bethesda's other great time-killer. This time around I have taken great care in selecting some mods that should address the more nerve wracking features. (Wish me luck)

Well it does seem like a waste to get a Notebook just to play fallout since for the most part I only play console games.

#303, by .aero on Tue 31 Mar 2009, 02:45 pm

Bethesda excels at making good games with horrible stability.

I would not get a notebook if one of the primary reasons you'll be using it is gaming. Portable and powerful are still difficult (expensive) to combine and come with dramatic trade-offs.

Big display? Crappy portability.
Powerful CPU/Graphics Card? Crappy battery life.

#302, by texaspete on Tue 31 Mar 2009, 02:05 pm

It depends, do you plan on doing anything other then gaming with it? If that a yes I would not get one. They are over priced and have nothing installed on them.

I honestly have no idea what to tell you, except that Rob also happens to have a problem running Fallout 3 on his PC due to him having the "magical" combination of quirky hardware (mobo+vid card) that causes problems for the game. As for the PS3... well, if you can, I'd take it back and say the damn thing doesn't run and pick up the PC version instead.

#299, by Deadpool on Mon 30 Mar 2009, 09:59 am

That is odd, i have yet to have a single problem with the PC version....

#297, by Deadpool on Mon 30 Mar 2009, 06:19 am

So I decided to play Fallout 3 since I've been jonesing for some wasteland action, but as much as I love this game the fucking thing keeps freezing up on me! Now I should mention I have the PS3 version which is apparently the only one that does this, I downloaded the patch for it and it still freezes. This is the only game I've ever had this problem with on the PS3.

FWIW, for those who may wonder, Fallout Tactics - while a great game that's worth playing - is not part of the 'official' Fallout canon or continuity (it's also a tactical game, and not a turn-based RPG).

For anyone who wants to play the original Fallout games (1&2), you can get them from http://gog.com for a relative pittance. DRM-free and tested to work on modern systems!

GOG is a game download site that caters to 'classic' games that deserve to have a rebirth in modern times. They take old games and strip the DRM and package them up so that they will work on modern PCs and then sell them for cheap. It's a cool gig.

Duke Nukem 3D is also up there for like $6.

This game is awesome. Be sure to get all 8 achievements so that you can see the end.
