    Pre-alpha releases? Do you bother with them?

    Increasingly, I'm seeing more and more pre-alphas available for download through Steam for games that simply won't appear until 2014 at the earliest. While I can see the need for alpha (and certainly) beta testing - I find it a little weird why games that maybe around 15-20% complete, are...

    Battlefield 4

    ***shudder!*** :cool: You could add PowerVR too....... maybe even Matrox? I had the latter - but did anyone buy a PowerVR card? ;) D.

    Noob from Manchester

    Bizarrely - I find the white one easier to keep clean than the black gold one! D.

    Noob from Manchester

    Black Gold looks amazing when clean - especially in early morning/late evening light. But it's an absolute b**ch to keep clean! ;) D.

    End Of An Era

    Good stuff! Will be interesting to see how you compare the Monaco to the old Valver? And whether or not you get any browny points back with the girlfriend in due course? :) D.

    Noob from Manchester

    Welcome :) You 'might' be pushing it for a reliable one at that price - up it to around £2k and I'm sure you'll have a lot more to choose from. Any preference on colour? D.

    Do rollcages and bucket seats have a lifespan for racing

    Interesting. I've never even give something like this a thought? Surely the 5 years are just a guideline though? If a 5'1" skinny woman did two track days a year, sure she wouldn't need the seats replacing in the same time frame as a lard ass bloke doing twenty races a year? Or is it that the...

    The XBox One Thread

    Really looking forward to how that plays as a final released game. Did look epic from the trailers online. D.

    PC only - Humble Bundle - Thank me later

    Trine 2 is stunning to look at with the right hardware! D.

    PC only - Humble Bundle - Thank me later

    Nabbed this last night - cheers. Quite interested to try out Tropico 4 and Jagged Alliance. :) D.

    Nice mouse pad - same here. :) D.

    Battlefield 4

    Pre-ordered - thanks! I'll probably just end up player the SP campaign with it too! ;) D.

    New car... Audi TTS with pics

    Not my cup of tea, I would have probably kept the 135 myself! :) But if you're pleased with it - that's the main thing. Are these all manual? Glad Audi kept that, if they are? D.

    Anyone getting Diablo 3 for the 360?

    Well, I'm Mr. Anti-Pad for the most part - pretty much always favouring K&M. But this plays ok with the pad - just marred a little by the games' insistence on helping a bit with auto aim. To most console gamers, you probably wouldn't notice it. But when PC'ers are used to actively aiming with...

    Ash's EK9 Rx

    I love them, even though I've never driven one. The screaming engine is just a mechanical work of art - and operates in a way that will never be reproduced by manufacturers now, or in the future. CO2 emissions and 'comfortable' forced induction are common-place. N/A engines of this calibre are...

    Anyone getting Diablo 3 for the 360?

    We're both on lvl 14 now after a blat on Saturday afternoon. As you expect - the gaps between level-ups now are getting longer and longer. Quite a few things you don't get to unlock until lvl 53, so there's plenty to do yet! Have you bought it then? D.

    Can't get iOS7, phone full up...?

    Apps I don't worry about. I had a couple of games on there at over 1GB each. Short of space? Just deleted them and re-downloaded them. D.

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    I think once DDR4 gets mainstream, I'll probably think about upgrading mine. I love how we're talking about PC kit like this now and the XBone still has to make do with GDDR3. That 32MB of eSRAM has got to be one mutha of a piece of hardware - lol. D.

    iOS7 - Features/Screenshots

    Lol. My first reaction when it came up? It looks a bit 'Androidy'! ;) Android might be able to configure the wi-fi adapters on Samsungs to manipulate an ironing board and fly to the Moon - or a billion-and-one other 'features'. But for aesthetics and the total polished look of iOS - Apple has...

    iOS7 - Features/Screenshots

    I must be the luckiest b*****d alive with iPhones and iPods. Any update that comes out - I chuck it on. I don't even double check for backups on anything first. Nothing has gone wrong...... yet! ;) Liking it so far. It wouldn't let me download the update until I plugged it into the mains...

    GTA V : Your selfies/snapmatic photos

    People have actually programmed this......? Dog humping, wang shots. What next? Gratuitous clunge shots? D.

    rear brakes, too much brake dust?

    Either that, or look into using some rubber pads? http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?715197-Rubber-inserts-blocks-for-car-jacks Wasn't there a thread not long back where the rear Mintex discs were too 'fat' and not as narrow as the Reno OEM ones? Could be that with the additional...

    Kerbal Space Program [PC/MAC]

    Tried the demo and I can see the appeal. I don't think I'll pay £18 for it - but I'll add it to my wishlist and see if it comes up in a future sale. D.

    What do you keep in your boot?

    The Renault jack kit. A small can of WD. A wheel brace and a small plug-in lamp that connects via the cig lighter. No idea why that's there - only used it twice in 9 years, lol. D.

    Anyone getting Diablo 3 for the 360?

    Persist with it in regards to your housemate. I mentioned to my girlfriend about trying this last weekend and she wasn't really bothered. Five minutes in and she's just going through the motions, but then she 'gets it'. Half an hour in, she insists that I can't play this game in future without...

    My Alfa Romeo 147 GTA.

    Black wheels? ^^^^ - I rest my case...... :cool: The reflection of light on the gloss black. The red poking through on the callipers. Set to a background of the surrounding silver bodywork. Works perfectly. I will say this now - that silver on silver will loose a lot of the 'drama'. But it's...

    My Alfa Romeo 147 GTA.

    ^^^ - that's missing from a LOT of cars these days - regardless of price or power. Good on you for choosing something a little more quirky and less mainstream. Love the GTA's - something that bit special. Ignore the black wheel disbelievers. On the right car and alloy setup, black works...

    Whistling from door

    I was going to ask if it was the usual whistling noise - but as it's just started, clearly it's something else. I'd wipe down all the door rubbers and make sure that all the edges of the front windows are clear of crap. Do you use both doors often? Or just the drivers side? I'd check the...

    15 Clio v6's on honister pass yesterday!

    Brings back so many good memories! Glad you had a great time - and not a single coil pack failure between all of you?! :) Any angry drivers out there when taking photos? No repeat of Mr. Mondeo? Lol. D.
