Agree. The one true path doesn't bless us all, but those who have walked it, know that it is the only way. Welcome to the fold..... :cool: D.

Worth a punt m8, for the price of a half-a-tank of juice! ;) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BBC-micro-computer-/271373664581?pt=UK_VintageComputing_RL&hash=item3f2f218145 D.

550 attempts?!? Jesus - has this dude ever heard of the female sex???? D.

Looking good! Frustrates me why Renault never released white as an RS colour in the first place? Welcome aboard. :cool: D.

Lol. Some of those are epic. I wouldn't have the patience to try and complete one of those against the clock though! D.

Hmmm - decisions! Might have to postpone this for a short while anyway as the Chavwagen needs a new clutch. :cry: Who knows, the 780's might have dropped in price by then? :) D.

Single m8 - for now anyway! Thanks for the suggestions so far guys :) D.

Chaps, Looking into a replacement mid-range card in favour of my elderly GTX460s that I have in SLi. I was looking at around £250-£300 approximately. I'm open to the wise words and advice from the Hardware Sages of CS. :cool: Cheers, D.

I paid upfront for this! Hopefully it will be a good update on the Flatout/Destruction Derby series. D.

For 75p, that is SO worth it! Will run on anything more powerful than a food blender these days too. D.

Faster Than Light? Legends - such a shame they were pretty much a one-hit wonder! The follow-up/expansion pack for DM just wasn't as good, imo. Classics! Got to include Wizball, Beach Head and Raid over Moscow in there too :) I mentioned it in a post a while back about a track-day I went to...

Haha! Too right. The big 4-Oh at the end of this year. ;) D.

Only one for me. Wasteland on the C64. It was unlike anything else I played, sucked most of my free time in my mid-teenage years and created a backdrop that is used in many, many games up to the present day. When I realised that there was a Kickstarter campaign for Wasteland 2 - I pumped £100...

Works with the colour of the alloys and is a bit different. I personally like it. :) Was Ben's GTi that goldy/orange colour? Remember it being a rapid little s**t on one of the meets - though iirc it had an issue with spitting oil out? D.

Good review there! I think the above is quite key for me. I don't really pump that much time into my racing games - far less than I should be do actually. So the game itself has to be good to maintain my focus on it. D.

Sell children/limb/organs/yourself - but get the money for some decent rubber. You've got one of the most focused and light-weight hot-hatches of the last generation, but you're not putting decent rubber on it? You might as well attempt to play rugby while wearing a pair of stilettos.... D.

It does make a difference. Engine notes of vehicles can be vectored in a lot better - and if you're keeping still, they are a life-saver for hearing the footsteps of people nearby. I've done it several times where on hearing footsteps, a quick glance on the mini-map shows no friendlies, giving...

Cracking history there m8. Certainly one to look back and be proud of! D.

Lol! Did you do much to the 6, or was it pretty much standard? Really like the FRS - I'd like to think that that's an itch I'll scratch at some point. I can't help but think I'd miss the 4WD ability in the likes of the Evo, though? D.

T-EAG looks tacky. I wouldn't be seen dead in one of those..... ;) Welcome to the club! D.

Epic! Nice find Andy - I think I'll be booking that :) D.

Yep :cool: https://www.origin.com/en-gb/store/buy/battlefield-1942-ANW.html D.

He'd get 20 for dissing Imbruglia though... ;) WB - epic motors there! D.

Good times on that. El Alamein is probably my favourite BF map of all time, along with Shuhia Taiba on 2142. Did you ever try out Desert Combat too? Not sure if you're aware, but if you have an Origin account with EA, you can download the original Battlefield 1942, free of charge. I haven't...

I get the occasional texture issue on that map on the PC too. Roofs and walls appearing and disappearing in rapid succession - lol. D.

Flying in low over the ground on El Alamein? ;) The neat part about that is if you blitzed past, you'd only get a few additional rounds of ammo. You either had to crawl by like a sitting duck to fully rearm or physically land. It worked. D.

Sorry - I should have said that on the older BF games, it wasn't just your base that you could only resupply from from, but there were several caches of ammo spread across the map. Although a weapons cache may only be 400-500 metres away, it forces you to disengage and resupply. The worst...

No reflection on your skill m8 - but that clip just highlights the mistake EA/DICE made in having unlimited ammo on vehicles. For over three minutes, you're raping and pillaging pretty much all before you. You could argue that the lack of skill on the opposition hasn't been able to bring you...

It's Commander Mode - which is used in a lot of online game types. You need to be Rank 10 or higher in order to apply for the Commander's position though. D.

FLOL - how the hell do you play Commander Mode with a pad?! :cool: Some good videos there. Must admit I use that anti-aircraft ploy a lot when they fly ultra-low and fire an RPG at point blank range. I do that from tanks too. D.
