    Final Fantasy - Retro Gaming

    Wasn't the first FF game from like 1987 or something?? Tried FF7 on several attempts on PS1. And like the MGS titles, it seemed to get extremely positive reviews, but I just didn't 'get' it. D.

    Blackpool Legend Fires NW Rally Stages

    Looks good - might tag along! D.

    RaceRoom Racing Experience

    Tried it with keyboard only on the hill-climb. UBER-fail! ;) D.

    Clean install with SSD

    I was dubious myself. Then with that Vaio laptop we got last week (with 256GB SSD) - it got to the logon screen in under 5 seconds. Madness :) D.

    Clean install with SSD

    I thought RAID0 on SSDs was pretty much irrelevant? D.

    Written off?

    I can understand the MOT being void, but the road-tax? Is that because a damaged car could have the potential to emit more CO2 than standard?? Sorry for the OP - completely innocent in all of this and now he's got a boat-load of crap to sort. :( I would have thought/hope that that shouldn't be...

    Clean install with SSD

    Yep - no different - certainly with Win7 x64 being chucked on. I still haven't got around to sorting out an SSD for my PC yet! D.

    Haha - sounds great! I think the G25 will be unpacked again this weekend for a dabble. :) D.

    John - what cars do you get in the hill-climb in the Beta? D.

    Is Windows 8 utter crap?

    Really? Not tried that - I'll have to give it a go! D.

    Think I'll have a dabble at this.... D.

    Is Windows 8 utter crap?

    Lol - probably as easy as calculating the mean of Life, the Universe and everything. ;) Not something I'd be envious of doing. D.

    Is Windows 8 utter crap?

    That's the thing - they haven't been removed, just moved. Granted, I accept that they have to make progress forward, but for the reasons I mentioned earlier in this thread, Microsoft have had to create a Windows 7.5 rather than a balls-out change to a genuine replacement O/S. I had a £1.6k...

    Is Windows 8 utter crap?

    Just using it on one of directors' new tablet/laptop hybrids that arrived this morning. For doing non-fluffy stuff, good God its a feckin PITA to use! You simply forget and don't take into account working in IT just how many shortcuts and things you do without thinking. Windows 8 stops you in...

    THQ are gone

    Not got Rebellion yet - still using Trinity at the minute. Wish I'd bought Rebellion in the Steam winter sale.... :( D.

    RS182 Badges

    I have the non-Cup amphasite one on my front bumper. Had it for years - got it of Ady on here. :) D.

    Microsoft Office 2010?

    As GiT says - if your works runs and installs a legit and registered Microsoft Office program, you're entitled to a copy of Office as an employee for around £8.... http://www.microsofthup.com/hupuk/faq.aspx We've done it at work and it proves very popular for staff and their partners wanting...

    Some Fresh Pics... ***V6 Fag Wagon Content***

    Yey! You got rid of it! Hopefully you'll regain some Hero Points since you sold the FRP. ;) D.

    V9 *** - Grey 200 - Grane road

    There's one I see regularly near Guide roundabout. Could be the same one? D.

    Help servicing a 182

    Yes! I sound like a broken record with this and am probably a bit too obsessive with it - lol. I had mine changed for the first time at 24k and it transformed using the gearbox from feeling like porridge with a spoon sticking out, into something that was much more direct and enjoyable to use. I...

    Why do so many people on here not rate the Clio?

    Love mine. It gets the TLC it needs and has served me really well - including some epic journeys and trips out. The 182 simply ticks so many boxes, that I think it's a cracking little all-rounder. I also think that there's something quite special about the 2.0litre N/A engine. It's a dying...

    THQ are gone

    Truly epic game from Relic, that. I play Sins of a Solar Empire by Ironclad, just as a close-ish homage to Homeworld. It was so ahead of its time and the music was brilliant. Surely there's enough demand to make Homeworld 3?? :) D.

    CC and Speed Limiter issues

    Does sound like there's a problem if you have to continue holding down the CC switch? I use mine every day on the motorway without issue, so I'd say your's in broken? :( D.

    2118's owners.

    Liking the gold! Suits the flamer really well, imo. I wouldn't bother changing the colour if they were mine. :) D.

    LY R27 - Lord Sheldon Way, Ashton-under-Lyne

    In the lane heading down by the Travelodge this morning. About 7.20am. Sounded modded? D.

    Shame. So long as Company of Heroes 2 still gets released this year.... D.

    Elder Scrolls Online

    It has the 'potential' to be awesome - mopping up all of the failings that dogged the SP driven Skyrim. Handled correctly, distinct character types and abilities, true 'squad-based' RPG play and range of side-quests away from the core story - would make it perfect. Make it Skyrim-with-mates...

    IT career progression

    ^^^ - very true and I agree. Qualifications will no doubt help you when/if you're looking at a similar role elsewhere. But experience has a BIG part to play - and that can't always be proven with your name on a flashy certificate. :) I think that's a key aspect of you being down there m8 - the...
