  1. Avatars must go! ...thus spake Kingzjester

    I think he just doesn't like concrete. --Erwin
  2. Lava™ lamps

    Hehe, too bad you edited your post. --Erwin
  3. Games cost way too much.

    Hehe, reminds me of what I read yesterday in Gilbert's Grumpy Gamer: But the lower price point could leave some buyers with the feeling that the game isn't worth the full price, and that somethings wrong with it. Game players are always screaming about wanting lower prices, but the truth is, if you lower the price too far, people stop buying it (unless it's a high profile game). --Erwin
  4. PC mag

    The best magazine I've ever subscribed to was 'Hoog Spel'. Perhaps they were a bit too honest with their reviews, because they got into financial problems even though the magazine was quite popular. I also agree with PC Gameplay being good. It's a no-nonsense magazine. --Erwin
  5. Arhghghghg

    I read in some magazine, that installing both isn't a very good idea. They'll be in each others way, or something, which means both programs won't run at their best. --Erwin
  6. PC mag

    I cancelled my subscription to PC Zone Benelux last month. I don't know why I didn't do that earlier, considering I'm mostly flipping through it very quickly. I wonder how long these magazines manage to survive in their current form. --Erwin
  7. Games cost way too much.

    EVERYTHING is expensive nowadays. (Sorry. Just came back from the gas station and I think I'll sell my car and buy me a bike soon. ) --Erwin

    If it's not beeping or flashing some leds then it's indeed the power supply. These things are a hell of a lot easier to fix when you've got a normal PC. And cheaper too. Most often it's just a fuse in the power supply that needs to be replaced. Here, it'll cost you 15 to 20 bucks if you take it to one of those general repair places. (Y'know, a shop that repairs broken TV's and radio's and shit) --Erwin
  9. I'll follow your example. --Erwin
  10. Video card Question

    Good! I'm not going to spend a fortune on a new PC, but I think I'll update my ancient geForce MX440 before I'll buy HL2. I was thinking about a spending max. 120 Euro's. (Insert poor student rambling here.) I think you can buy a reasonable videocard for that money, no? --Erwin
  11. Holy Moly, or how valve wants my soul

    Even the original CS_office has toilets. They're always occupied though. --Erwin
  12. Video card Question

    Do you also happen to know if you can put an 8x AGP videocard into an 4x AGP slot? --Erwin
  13. Holy Moly, or how valve wants my soul

    What does that mean? --Erwin
  14. Holy Moly, or how valve wants my soul

    Do these packages differ in size? And how much will you have to download anyways? --Erwin
  15. Captain August launches

    You live in an entirely different world than mine, my friend. --Erwin
  16. Captain August launches

    Is that a good 'whoa' or a bad one? I ask because last year somone didn't like my new haircut. He was like: 'Whoa! Did you fall off the fucking roof, or what!?' --Erwin
  17. Captain August launches

    Why use books if there's TONS of information to be found on-line? I found phpfreaks and codewalkers.com to be very useful. --Erwin
  18. Captain August launches

    Wait a minute... You're the fried-egg guy!? --Erwin
  19. Captain August launches

    First of all; congrats! I'll most definitely bookmark this site. But, uh... You really shouldn't put future pages in the same directory, if you don't want people to read these. Don't worry, I haven't looked further than page 6. --Erwin
  20. I am 'blacking out' Psychonauts!

    You should raise money. To fix the roof, perhaps? --Erwin
  21. I am 'blacking out' Psychonauts!

    I don't believe in Tim. If he really exists, then why didn't he make Grim Fandango sell twice as much? Or even better? And why isn't he creating more adventure games? And, uh, maybe world piece or something? Yeah, that'd be nice too. --Erwin
  22. Happy birthday Erkki!!

    (Just ignore the weird expression on that smiley.) --Erwin
  23. Halloween Manny

    You haven't clicked the link to see the final result? Man, it totally rocks! --Erwin
  24. Crimson Skies: High Road To Revenge flies!

    I totally loved it. Very original and refreshing flight 'sim'. --Erwin
  25. Murder Mystery Half-Life 1 Mod?

    I'm using NAT too. Still, only one or two times I've seen that message you're talking about. And it doesn't mean you can't play a Steam game when the friends list is down. I don't really use the Friends list anyways --Erwin
