    Footy games and I never get on....

    Any idea which side was mine whilst playing PES? Now if I'd been using keyboard and mouse, I bet I would have been on a 32-0 thrashing... ;) D.

    Good 'ol eBay & Amazon - 360 bits

    Mine was m8 - truly shocking using the standard 360 component cable. Granted, it's probably the TV where the issue lies, but when connected to HDMI, the difference was like night and day. D.

    I'm doing a Mac vs. PC presentation...

    This, in a nutshell, tbh. Our marketing guys would love the company to be blanket-covered with Macs - but would that feasible for hairy-arsed warehouse staff on the trade counters? If I was a customer going to a home improvement supplier and their POS systems were Macs, I'd be thinking that I'm...

    Good 'ol eBay & Amazon - 360 bits

    If it's not that bad using VGA on the 360 m8, I might try that instead. I use the PC far more than the console, so I would prefer the PC to be connected via DVI instead, tbh. D.

    Good 'ol eBay & Amazon - 360 bits

    Nope - just DVI and VGA on the monitor itself. As above. :) The 40" plasma we have is an old generation one - it doesn't have HDMI on it. And composite is out of the question - that looks utterly shite on any TV! As above. :) Technically, that's true - but the decoder uses hardware...

    Pre-order waiting?

    They keep shifting the ETA on it too. :( I bet it will be crap on release as well! D.

    My New Car, Bright Red MPS Content!

    Subtle filth, these cars - just like their larger '6' sibling too. A rare, but welcome sight on the roads. As bad as the fuel consumption appears to be, I wonder how they would fare if Mazda shoved a rotary in there along with a pair of hefty turbos instead? ;) D.

    FLOL! Random payments - FTW! ;) D.

    Assassin's Creed - Revelations

    Never even tried any of them, tbh. Is it all about sneaking about and creeping up on people? I honestly haven't even read up on it. I despised several revered classics such as the Metal Gear Solid series and the Thief series, purely down to this. I have two pixels of my foot beyond the shadow...

    Good 'ol eBay & Amazon - 360 bits

    Having recently acquired the 360, I wanted the minimum of fuss to switch between the PC and the console with regards to my monitor and the audio decoder. On a recommendation from a m8, he pointed me in the direction of one HDMI to DVI cable, which would connect the 360 to the Iiyama monitor (£2...

    Crysis help. Come on, what is it I'm missing?

    Yep - noticed that too. Crysis Warhead is definitely worth a punt too. A fair bit shorter than the original game, but pretty good all the same. D.

    Problem on speakers for PC Help

    Are they situated where they have always been? Or has there been anything new introduced nearby since you last used them? Have the connectors been shoved fully home - both on the PC and the speakers? Can the speakers connect to your PS3/ And if so, is the noise still there when using the...

    Pre-order waiting?

    I've pre-ordered a fair few games over the years - but normally these take a few weeks, several at most to arrive. At the other end of the scale, what's the longest people have been waiting for something to actually get released? ;) I just checked my Play.com account and I preordered Diablo III...

    Problem on speakers for PC Help

    It difficult to say m8. As for 3-years-old, that's still a young 'un in terms of sound! As it doesn't advance anywhere near the rate of visual effects, good speaker equipment is robust enough for years. I currently have my Cambridge Soundworks DTT3500 connected to both my PC and the 360 - and...

    Serious Sam

    Lol - my nephew didn't quite 'get' the whole Serious Sam thing when I launched the HD version on the PC at the weekend. He said "I don't get it - it's stupid"......... exactly!!! ;) Shame he's not old enough to remember the impact the original Doom had back in the day. Easily on par (if not...

    Did insurance really go up that much?!

    I'm with Admiral and the reminder will be through soon. Not looking forward to it tbh - living as far away from Bolton as Pluto is from the Sun - still means we get dry-riggot-humped from having a BL postcode. Cnuts. I utterly, utterly, hate, detest, despise and generally would like to ignore...

    [MAC/PC/PS3/Xbox 360] - Portal 2 - Official Thread

    Will definitely be getting this. But like I said to Malachi on Steam chat the other day, I'll probably wait for it to drop in price a little. The co-op part of it sounds intriguing..... D.

    Lightweight 182 track/road car (Page 6+)

    Re: 182 track weapon attempt They are m8! ;) I know on track it will be a different scenario, but I put 17s on my previous car from the 14s that came with it as OEM. Totally destroyed the acceleration as not only were they hefty in weight, but don't forget there is more force required to...

    Wrapping a clio good or bad, whats your thoughts?

    That would definitely put me off. I bet it looks a right mess when the wrap starts to fail or age? What about stone chips too that would puncture the wrap revealing a totally different coloured car beneath it? I like the idea, but in practice, I wouldn't be too sure. D.

    Owning a Clio 182 - Costly?

    I think as others have said, it all comes down to the TLC that these cars get. I've had mine since new (Dec '04) and it's my daily driver with over 84k on the clock. It been serviced when it needs it and mechanically gets a lot of sympathy from me (no ragging it from cold, etc). If you're the...

    Team Fortress 2 - what's happened to it?

    Seems fairly common to limit the number of snipers to three per side. While I can understand the reasoning for that, it's seriously flawed when some goon just hogs that class. D.
