  1. Mass Effect 2

    ffs... my copy is on back order. Crappy retailer kept claiming they still had CE versions available.
  2. Should I do it?

    Or you could post like SignorSuperdouche, so that your post always matches the mood of your avatar.

    I'd rather have Mass Effect gold
  4. Mass Effect 2

  5. My Computer Broke!

    looks good
  6. Mass Effect 2

    My Shepherd punched women through the mail slot.
  7. General Video Game Deals Thread

    Didn't have any issues with the keyboard/mouse. It probably depends on what you're used to. Because I find the gamepad controls in various console games dreadful.
  8. Mass Effect 2

    Grrr... stop playing! Or at least stop posting Taking to long for my copy to arrive.

    Infidel. And you must.

    What's so great about the Young Sherlock Holmes movie?
  11. Bargains

    Wow.. that's a real bargain. Now, why would I want to have a copy of Young Sherlock Holmes?
  12. Mass Effect

    Me too. Then again, still working on Uncharted 1 and Brutal Legend
  13. Life

    I like how the gate is closed from the outside. Keeping those weird forest paving american's locked inside.

    Get a 64bit OS. Old games that don't work can probably be run in a virtualized Windows XP instance using VirtualBox or VMware (which supports Direct3D/OpenGL). Getting a 32bit OS for a new PC is only going to hurt you down the road.
  15. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    Must have been spending the whole day in the toilet drawing penises on the wall. It's a fennec fox. Apparently popular as pets in Japan because it looks like a Pikachu.
  16. Fucking PC gaming!

    From that list, either Arkham Asylum or Mass Effect 2
  17. Old Games That Hold Up...Or Don't

    I'd try a Windows XP image running in VirtualBox. VirtualBox now supports Direct3D and OpenGL. Much easier to manage, and you could also have a Windows 98 available for games that also have issues in Windows XP.
  18. My Computer Broke!

    My workstation is only 2 years old, and was on the low side of a high end system. So maybe at the end of this year I'm going to buy a new one. Probably another Dell. Or maybe just replace the graphics card and wait another year. I lost interest in building my own machine from parts. But maybe if Dell doesn't sell a proper configuration I might do it again. I really dislike the rather limited configuration options Dell (and alike) provide.

    Your PC RRoD'ed? Red Ripples of Death
  20. goty.cx 2009?

    it's a good score, but not really fitting to the game
  21. goty.cx 2009?

    according to wikipedia there is a high resolution patch that allows you to play it in 640x480
  22. Old Games That Hold Up...Or Don't

    they use the force
  23. Old Games That Hold Up...Or Don't

    afaik not a single 64bit version of Windows supports 16 bit libraries. Which is a major issue considering InstallShield installers used a 16bit library for a very long time.
  24. Fucking PC gaming!

    Talking about PC gaming. Is it just me, or is aiming in console games (with a gamepad) overly complicated? Or is this just the case with Uncharted 1. I'm quite good with shooting on the PC using mouse and keyboard, and hardly waste ammo. But on the console I'm spending ammo like a spoiled brat spend money in a shoe store.
  25. Fucking PC gaming!

    Yesterday my PS3 became unresponsive while playing Brutal Legend. The music kept playing, but for the rest it didn't do anything. The PS3 power button still worked though. So yeah, fuck console gaming.
