Now I am not claiming to be the best gamer in the world, but neither am I the worst and like to think I can complete most games to a decent level without too much fuss even on a hard setting. Dark Souls sounded challenging but rewarding so I picked up a copy. 4 hours in, about a million...

Saw this being used around my mates house and was really impressed by it so got it myself. For anyone not familiar with it, it basically turns your phone into a remote control for your computer so you can play music from it, Spotify or iTunes or whatever. Really clever. However, I assumed my PC...

Right, I updated Kies last night with the hope that ICS would then be available to download onto my Galaxy S2 on Orange. However after the download, my phone now doesn't sync with Kies...Kieas recognises my phone (as Kies opens when I connect it via USB) but then jst keeps saying "Connecting"...

Just about had enough of iTunes now. First of all (ok this is my mistake!) it has dumped about 2000 songs in the same folder, really annoying me! However, now having a more urgent issue - importing CDs (or lack of importing!). Basically it will import most CDs fine, but 2 of my CDs (both...

Just got my Galaxy S2 back from repair and not sure what they've done to it but seems different to how it was. Checked the software and it is 2.3.5 - is this ICS does anyone know, or a soft update before ICS is released? Only seem to be minor differences (e.g. Android Shop is now called Google...

Currently on BT and cannot wait to leave them - worst customer services I have EVER dealt with and the package is far too expensive, wish I had never joined but never mind. Have been looking at Sky - seem decent enough speeds from what I can tell and good prices. Not bothered about TV but nice...

A BT issue with NAT settings which is driving me MAD! Basically it is always on strict and none of the advice on the BT website works. I have spoken to an Indian chap in a call centre which set it to open for about a minute before he "improved" this, and then it was back to strict and he...

Picked up the original Dragon Age and all the DLC for £12 as I LOVE Mass Effect and thought this was a good game to tide me over until the final installment of the trilogy. Has anyone else got it? My first impressions are that it's really good, good story, good level of customisation, high...

Quite scary, especially the last paragraph... http://www.metro.co.uk/tech/games/867109-apple-will-be-the-games-industry-in-a-decade-says-former-playstation-exec

Right, just got the new Galaxy S2 and keen to rip some films onto my PC and put them on my phone. What's the best software/method for doing this, what would people recommend? Thanks! :cool:

Having played the likes of Mass Effect, Fallout and most recently the brilliant Heroes of Might and Magic from Xbox Live, just wondering what other games people would recommend of a similar ilk? I'm not interested in New Vegas and heard the latest Dragon Age is a bit lame. Maybe Final Fantasy...

According to Orange, the S2 suffers from some technical glitches (TW rather than Android) and if they aren't fixed they might not release it...has anyone on other networks found any problems? Main ones identified are to do with alarm (goes off a week late) and lock screen. Highly disappointing...

I've been a bit rubbish with my phone and have some contacts saved on SIM, some on phone, some on Googlemail. I can't find any obvious way to copy them all to one place though (presumably Googlemail so they will be ready for when I get my new phone)? Anyone got any tips as I refuse to spend...

I'm on Orange and these 3 phones seem the best. Currently got an HTC Hero and Desire HD sounds good, but also heard the Galaxy S is worth considering. The Ace is a new version but not sure of it's positioning in the range? Phone gurus? Cheers! EDIT: Ignore the Ace, seen it's a middle of...

I signed up in February, and paid my year's line rental in advance. I have their Broadband package paying £8.50 a month for up to 10GB downloads, however this seems to get used up in a few days as my housemate sits at home all day. The bill came in last month at £33.50 due to going over quota...

Realised yesterday on my BT Home Hub that my NAT settings were on strict. On the software on my PC I think I found the bit in Settings to allow "Xbox Live" to be permitted on my open list. However it then asks me to select which device I want to associate with my Xbox and gives me a list of...

Just got this on the 360 and man is it difficult! Even easy AI is giving me grief, so tactical but I imagine rewarding when you get further into it. Anyone else got this, if so, any tips, anyone??!?! :approve:

ANOTHER technology issue in my new place. Now BT claim I have already exceeded my monthly 10GB d/l quota - 15GB in 10 days apparently! I haven't downloaded a single song, film or game - just some basic browsing, streaming and 360 gaming. Nothing excessive at all. How can this be possible...

Hi...having (another!!!) TV related issue, this time on my Samsung digital Freeview. When I go onto DTV it won't let me access the tuning option (like it skips past it). If I go back to analogue it let's me tune on there. Anyone got any ideas? It's a LE32A457 model! Thanks!!!!

Second new thread in here today (moved into a new place as you can tell!!!) Anyway my TV in my bedroom is not getting any signal from the TV point....I tried a little external aerial and still no joy (but to be fair it might be because the external is rubbish!) Is there anyway of testing the...

It seems my housemate decided to play Peggle on Xbox for about 10 hours straight, with vivid colour settings, on my brand new LG plasma!!!! As a result, to the edges of the TV, the game's menus seem burnt into the screen. It's only very minimal but I notice it and it annoys me. Any...

Hi I have got an LG plasma (brand new) and connecting it to a really good but slightly older Sony amp and speakers. The TV is outputing the audio via phono (? Think that's the name, simple male connectors, red and white colour) jacks into the aux input of the stereo. On my old TV this...

http://uk.ign.com/videos/2011/01/04/littlebigplanet-2-video-review?objectid=19675&show=HD How cool does this look? Really is the one game I am jealous I can't play on my 360 as it does look special.

Hi...going to buy a Dell HD Zino and want to hook it up straight to my TV, not going to get a monitor. What cable will I need to do this, HDMI to HDMI I was guessing, but will I need another cable for the audio too?

Was thinking of getting something like this, and seems to fit the bill. Was looking at the model costing £449 (to get the Turian CPU) - seems quite expensive though for what is essentially a small media PC...

I'm moving into a new flat and apparently it has a BT line already installed, but as I'm an Orange customer I can get cheap broadband...is it any good? Never realised how much just a basic phone and broadband pack costs...I can see why my Dad complains about it!

Has anyone considered getting this? Must admit it wasn't on my radar, but it's getting ridiculously good reviews, many saying it's the best driving game of this generation. It's made by the people who did Burnout, but it's meant to be a hell of a lot of fun, great speed, handling and graphics...

Got Orange broadband and up until 2 weeks ago has been working perfectly via a wireless router. However for past 2 weeks online it's been dropping out intermittently, sometimes often and sometimes infrequently. But it's really annoying for online gaming as it signs out of Xbox Live obviously...

I've seen the new Windows 7 for phone formats going to support an Xbox Live interface - so even thuogh I like Android, I love Xbox and the possibility of online gaming on my phone. I have an HTC Hero right now, which I think is great, so ideally would get another HTC with this software. Any...

Got my new 360 S but so far not enjoying it. Won't recover my gamertag (keeps freezing at different points up the progress bar) and doesn't pick up the memory transfer (although I take it this might happen once I finally get into the main menu). Anyone else had issues? So far getting really...
