Usual spot at Tescos - in the parent & child parking space. I really need to get a kid for that sole purpose. Can you hire children by the day just to give you better parking spaces?? D.

I've found it to be the opposite m8. The amount of hits I receive while swinging underneath a helo can be deadly at times! D.

Looks ok for some entry level advice. :) http://www.buildyourown.org.uk/pc-building/ D.

It might. But even in the year 2042, people will still be playing CounterStrike v1.6 instead. ;) The third installment definitely needs doing. I remember thinking "don't finish - not yet!" when I got to the end of EP2. b******s.... D.

It's difficult to say really. A bit like asking for an all-rounder car. You might find a 10-year-old Audi would do you just as well as a brand new Mondeo. Yet the cost of each will be massively different. My last upgrade cost around £900 - and that was principally a new motherboard, memory and...

Christ - just been doing some rough arithmetic in order to progress in Rank. Currently sat on 33 with about 70k to go before Rank 34. There's 180,000 points between starting 33 and reaching 34, so even a decent score of circa 5k-6k per game - it would still take you 30 games to progress up a...

Is this the game version of Dire Straits's "Money for Nothing" vid??? That would drive me insane..... it's like being a perpetual world of Lego - lol. D.

Drove past it earlier on this afternoon. No CS sticker that I could see, but is it anyone off here? D.

I had that much snow brought in on my feet a few weeks ago, that I used to rest the floor mat against the radiator when I got into work. Seemed to help a fair bit. As makkram says - you can get bags of silica gel which absorb moisture. If the moisture level is really bad, I'd hire a...

PMSL. We can't have the aesthetics of the MBP ruined now, can we? But Chwissy's right. In all my years in IT, I've yet to come across a decent anti-glare screen. Privacy screens however are a different kettle of fish. D.

I thought it was going to be crunch time at 5:18! :eek: D.

Good point. Making things too obtrusive just helps fuel the desire in people to break in. Area 51 would be more like "Area what?" if to the common public it, was nothing more than a desert-based airfield. Hyped up security just makes people naturally inquisitive. Again, if Sony provided the...

It's a great game - it really is. Some of the scenery and the 'openess' of it all is pretty staggering. But this small issue, which could easily be rectified in a patch is just ruining it for me. I wouldn't mind if their was a random timer element to it - hold off the current wave of attackers...

I'll be over in A-U-L again tomorrow.... D.

Just Cause 2 is just causing me to be pissed off at the minute! I seemingly can't complete or even half-attempt a mission without incurring the wrath of half an air force. Coupled with the fact that the helos are stupidly accurate and ALWAYS fire, there's simply no way out of there other than...

How are you dealing with Heat Level 3s and 4s at the minute? It's getting a little daft imo. Even grappling onto helos and taking them over is getting difficult with the other two helos and ground based forces sent in against you.... D.

I fully understand what you're saying, but why should they have to? I for one would love to get a few more BHP and the odd torque increase thrown in for good measure on my 182's ECU. But in no way do I think that Reno should feel compelled to enable me to do that in the first place. Fair...

And it gets better with time, m8. Like I said in a previous post, I'm still learning new things about maps that I have played again and again. I guess that's a plus point to the scale of most of BC2's maps - you're not playing in a back garden like you feel you are with COD. One tip I'd...

I'm not wanting to sound all 'holier than thou', but it really pisses me off when hacking teams/individuals say that they don't condone such actions for use in piracy of games. s**t, really? So you create a universal key fob for cars that can unlock any motor and what, that wouldn't appeal to...

The complete GTA4 package was on sale on Steam a few days ago. I think it was down to something made like £6.99 for all three games, iirc? It will have gone back up in price now, mind. :( The only thing that has ever put me off MMORPGs is that the decent ones are always a subscription based...

They are out of stock already. Arse. :( D.

Even as a hardcore advocate of games being single player, BC2 has to be played online. It's awesome. :) D.

I've tried really hard with my 182 to document EVERYTHING. It's been the only car I've had since new, so I started how I intended to go on. Personally, a service history would only interest me on the type of car it was. A simple runaround? Meh - full service history would simply be a bonus. But...

It's the timing more than anything m8. They were meant to be 'Holiday Offers' and I guess they can't stretch the reduced pricing out into the New Year much as they will get flak off the developers. I nabbed the NeverWinter Nights 2 Platinum Edition for £7.99 with about three hours left on the...

Just had a good 48/12 game on attacking Port Valdez. The opposition were totally weird though. Far more inclined to base rape you than to actually defend their MCOMs. It did help that their Apache pilot was a complete novice too. Didn't last long anyway above our tanks. :) Anyone had trouble...

Same on Port Valdez with the Russians. Bugs me (when playing either side) when players nail them in the air. Especially on Port Valdez when the Yanks rush that hill/mountain right in front of the Russians and simply spray the air with lead. The best death for me on that was spawning in as a...

Good point. It does make 'sense' for this to be played with a pad. I tried it with my 360 controller originally and where the peripheral controls of the game were excellent with it, I found the shooting and rapid targetting of the grappling hook really difficult. Switched to the K&M and it's...

Fecking annoying, ain't it? They do it so that any online game the user launches, their game response isn't slowed down by the download in the background. If I'm downloading something in Steam and launch a game, I simply Alt+Tab back to the Steam library and click on Resume for the download to...

I didn't know you worked there, Lee? I'm on Shadsworth, just behind you. You're dangerously close to that new Subway there. I bet your waistline has taken a beating! ;) D.

Diablo III for me. Had it on pre-order since May 2010 and hopefully now that Blizzard has got WoW Cataclysm out there, they will concentrate on the third installament of Diablo. D.
