She ain't that bad. I've seen worse. Put it this way, I wouldn't be throwing that one back in the ocean without a second thought. (geddit? chub, fishing, ocean?...ahem)

So what's this about Half-Life 2 and having to go on-line just to authenticate it? That implies that should I ever un-install the game (for some crazy reason like, I dunno, getting 4Gig of disk space back perhaps :rolleyes: ) and re-install in the future, I would have to go online and get it...

I watched (well, actually just listened to) the director's commentary of Star Wars (A New Hope) last night. Why can't they just make the commentary vaguely interesting? All it was about was... ".and the story of blah blah, is that because I didn't think to make it so that blah blah..."...

Aside from the fact that Halloween was over about 2 1/2 weeks ago! :rolleyes: Howver, if you are still looking for tunes, how about... 'Ghost Town' by The Specials. The song is actually about recession hitting a town in England and all the shops are closing down, but there's plenty of the...

Nah, I agree with FrostyNSO. The Rachel-Casey thing was a little bleurgh to me. I mean, it was more of a Rachel/Blair thing wasn't it? - and since Blair flew with Iceman, they were like brothers, so Casey was like Blair's kid/nephew (that kind of generation). Which meant that the Rachel-Casey...

Crikey - I keep on thinking of 'Interactive Fiction' as the good ol' 'Fighting Fantasy' type books http://homepage.mac.com/arekkusu/FF/ You remember these? - the ones where you had to roll a dice and keep a score of your health and skill and inventory etc.

The Red Dwarf sitcom series is currently being released onto DVD over here in the UK. Out of the 8 series, we're now on series 5 (which has just been released this week). On the extras disc, there was a documentary about the Red Dwarf USA pilot. Was wondering what happened to this - did...

I would be looking forward to it, if I had a PC with enough oomph to cope with it. :( I played the original and loved it - enough to get the Opposing Force and Blue Shift add-ons. My most recent first-person was Call Of Duty and my PC can cope with it.....just. Then again, its not that...

Do you guys have the 'pay-as-you-go' method of owning a mobile phone? (read cell-phone). That's what we can do over here in the UK. Calls are charged at something stupid like 45p a minute - but you only pay for the time you use it. So if you only use 8 minutes, then its only cost you £3.60...

Take the game back. Buy yourself a Playstation 2. Buy yourself the Playstation 2 version of the game. Don't be anal about "but its graphics aren't as good as a PC". :p

Erm, really dumb answer, but the green wire that you've split into two and plugged into 'input 1' - have you tried swapping those two wires around? (I'm just ignoring the R and L markings on the picture for the moment) Sorry, but that's as far as my knowledge on sound systems go!

The Raptor cockpit looks top dollar! I just wish we could have the display bits positioned nicely into the VDU screens and things like the speed kps/fuel level/energy levels put into their appropriate places in the pit. Ah well - that's just me harking back to the good 'ol days of WC1 Keep...

Surely that was the whole point of the game? - its a new enemy - nobody knows anything about them, so you had to be the first contact of this new alien race and learn about their culture, history, flying techniques? If this was real, you'd be going through the same thoughts - you'll be...

So if this thread has been bumped, does it mean I can now respond to 'old posts' within? Here goes: Depends where in England you come from. Loads of examples: wrath or wrar-th glass or glar-se grass or grar-se bath or bar-th (that's as in "I'm going to have a bath") The former is...

This is a good point - surely Luke would have only seen his dad when they were aboard the death star and Darth's helmet was taken off - therefore, when he sees the three jedi ghosts. he would be wondering who the hell Hayden was?!

I've never been able to get my head around the "joystick for FPS" thing. I mean, I don't know how I'd survive without mouse-look. You know, the walking along a room whilst looking around like I was some RPG wielding tourist on a sight-seeing tour. Then again, that might be why I'm a bit crap...

Yeah, kinda glad that I don't live in your 'Typhoon Alley' (is that what its called over there?) As for the weather, it does feel like its getting worse all over the world. Over here in the UK, its definitely a lot more windy than it normally is, and we've had lots of flooding when we never...
