Took me from about 8 until 11 last night. Just had a quick go and breezed the first 3 rounds, then perfected the bonus stage.
I used to play Street Fighter a lot, one of the lads I work with used to be one of the best in the country, and still is. He could beat me one handed on the SNES while...
I've completed the full arcade mode. Played it through as Ryu. Add Rod Street to your Xbox live friends list and you'll see I've completed it as it's an achievement.
Ah, I didn't know that's where it came from. I was just aware that he had money to pay for his cars rather than run them on loan from manufacturers.
I used to visit Dennis publishing a few years back. That was the video games side of things.
My home PC is pretty crap now, but it's run for 3 and a half years. It started out with a top Asus Nforce 2 motherboard and an Athlon XP 2600 with 512mb of Corsair memory and an old Gforce 3. Over the last 3 and a half years it's gained a further 1gb of RAM and a ATI Radeon X800 XT PE which...
If you go for the fastest 939 chip you can afford. That'll see you a good 2 - 3 years of service. At that point everything will have changed again and you'll be starting out with a new motherboard.
AM2 is a bit new at the moment and is bound to have performance and driver issues for a while...
I've just benchmarked a system I put together earlier.
Asus A8N32 SLI Deluxe mobo, Athlon FX 60, 2gb OCZ DDR 400, 2 x XFX 7900GTX.
3DMark 2005 - 13747
3DMark 2006 - 8924
That's a fair bit quicker than the same systems with an X2 4800 in. It'll be interesting to see how much faster the Intel...
I've not looked yet Chris. Will have a dig around later.
You don't need to add text Floodie, that's what the headset is for. You can chose if you want to enable voice when hosting a fight though, should you not want to talk to your opponent.
I noticed due to MS's new licensing fee on 360 hardware 3rd party stuff is few and far between.
Those pads are very strong, far stronger than my wall, leg, fist and head. lol
Some of the Logitech PS2 and Xbox pads were good. Hopefully they'll do a 360 one so I can enjoy SF II HF.
BTW...
Right, I need to rant and it's not about the game. That's fine.
The D pad on the 360 pad is the most shocking pile of shite D pad I have ever been unfortunate to use. The only time I used one as bad was on a previous MS PC pad which had tilt switches in it. How the hell am I expect to bang...
I got mine from Costco at the weekend. £176 the pair with fitting etc.
You'll need to find a mate with a Costco card though, and they took a few weeks to get them in.
I'd go for the Asus A8N32 SLI Deluxe Roy. If you are going to SLI at some point that gives you two x16 slots instead of one running at x8.
The increase in performance is only a small amount, but there is an increase.
Still okay for me, although I cleared my 15gb peak rate allowance last month and then used a further 5 and had those services blocked. lol Got to have my p**n.
Yeah, that Trophy is Harry Metcalfs so it's no surprise he's got the Zonda seeing as he's the Editiorial Director. His 550 should be there somewhere too.
On cars which do offer such amazing feedback poor tyres can totally destroy the driving experience.
I've been on front tyres with 2mm of tread lately but with no shoulders on the fronts at all. Pulling away quickly it torque steers all over the place, follows white lines terribly and is a...
Yeah you could do that. You could probably find drivers to do it now if you wanted. Both Dell and Alienware sell systems with them.
In fact I could mail my mate who's the Developer & Technical Relations for Nvidia in the UK and get some. lol
I found mine struggled when playing in the front of the house with the PC with wifi dongle in the back. With a wifi router the signal is a lot stronger though and I've never had any problems with either my DS or Xbox 360.
I reckon you'll be okay though.
Yeah, it's dual GPU. Basically 2 cards grafted together, sharing the same bus which is why it's performance is stunted compared to SLI'd cards.
Still not had chance to put the FX60s together or the Core Due Extreme, when I do later this week I'll bench them with SLI'd 7900 GTX in them...
