Basically ripped from the other post regarding ppl's thoughts on the Champ Man/FM series.... What do people fondly remember from their old computer/console days? Mine include Buggy Boy, Beach Head, The Sentinel, Elite, Dungeon Master and that 9 month spell that was spent on Wasteland on the...

Still worth the risk if it meant one less of them. My biggest fear would be that I'd be up for manslaughter or attempted murder in my own home. Bloody soft-arse country this has turned into...

Same here usually. 16 or 32 player maps - never 64 as it bogs down my broadband connection...

Anyone go on this? Usually on for a bit at weekends. Would be good to team up with some CS members rather than complete strangers..... :cool: D.

b******s.... :mad: I remember Northy's and FM's Williams's going to the RR day up at Padiham. They looked (and sounded) great, side-by-side on the M65. Let's hope the Tracker creates some leads. If the theiving t***s had some intelligence, they would park the cars at different locations...

Is it DVDs you're trying to view - and if so, are they originals or copied ones? D. ^^^^^ Sorry - being a mong there - didn't read the post correctly. These are vids off the internet that you're trying to view? D.

Christ - enough to put you off a Vee for life..... PMSL, though... D.

Chris - did have the non-Cup suspension wheels? I've seen one a few times at the Junc. 5 roundabout, that time of morning.... D.

Maybe! Always parked up when I see it though - so unless you know someone in Heywood?? D.

Good stuff - hopefully he wasn't as bad as when I saw James Thompson. His head came out of his mouth - it was so far up his own arse.... D.

Spotted it a few times around there. Anyone on here? I think it's a '53 plate... D.

It's funny. I know of a few console owners who turn their nose-up at PCs for games - FPS games especially. Once they've tried a decent mouse & keyboard combo, they soon change their minds. :cool: Undoubtedly, there are some talented gamepad users on consoles, but they aren't a patch on a true...

Picked up Q4 yesterday guys - plays and looks shite on my default setup. Even worse than Doom 3, ironically. This will be a game that you need the best hardware for. Not Unreal 3 tech levels, but something like a 9800 Pro just doesn't cut-it. The details I had to sacrifice in order for it to...

Very good point, actually. I suppose the headache for most developers is that they have to cater for a million-and-one combinations of motherboards, gfx cards, chipsets, memory size and types, etc. Yet for the most part, they get away with it and games (unless we're talking BattleCruiser 3000...

I'm cautious when it comes to the whole SLi thing. We've been down that route before with the Voodoo 2 cards and it didn't take off then. Why? Because of the expense and the fact that most games had to have a specific patch written for multiple gfx card support. There are clear and obvious...

Well, I'm still chugging along nicely with an Athlon 3200+, 9800 Pro, 2x 512 Corsair and an MSI nForce2 Ultra mobo. Not the screaming piece of tech it used to be, but it's ok for now! :) In all fairness, I'm not looking at PC upgrades at least until next year. There seems to be loads of 'ifs &...

bump

Have you PM'd j3ned? He should be able to get you a price at least..... D.

A Vee not practical enough? Who said anything about practical? Clearly your daughter is being very selfish about all this. Isn't their some salt-mine in Russia you can send her to or something? :clown: DOH! - you're right, I didn't spot the age bit! Insuring a Cup shouldn't be a problem for...

LOL with the wipers - they are one thing I don't think I could do without now. That and the xenons... I must admit, the Trophy's do look appealing. I don't mind getting the same make and model of car (I had a Sporting before the GT) but only if there is a significant difference between the...

Heard you before I saw you m8! :) Quite a beefy zorst on that... 172 Cup - CS sticker in the rear window, outside John Moore's Uni in Liverpool. You wouldn't have seen me - I was in a black A4 in the middle lane... D.

Bloody hell - you had a CD player in a Cup? Surely all that extra weight destroyed its handling? ;) Sounds like you had a decent enough car before the Cup already. I went from a Punto GT which I owned for six-and-a-half years before getting the 182. The difference was simply amazing. The GT...

Yep - never again with black, I think - unless a cheap, decent V6 comes along! Is your Cup standard? I was looking at a 12-month old one last year before I opted for a new 182. I really like the 'rawness' of them - not being bogged down with all fancy gadgets and stuff. What did you drive...

Yep - blame me too m8 - sorry about that! :o D.

I agree with you on you the Trophy power m8. Even an extra 10bhp would have been better than a normal 182... D.

Mike - what kind of mpgs do you get from it when you're given it some? Single figures?? D.

Hi m8 :) I live just outside Bury now, but I was born & raised in Ashton and my parents still live there. I nipping down for a visit as I hadn't seen them for a few weeks... Do you live in Ashton yourself? Trust me - the black looks a whole lot better when clean! ;) D.

Agreed. With the 'charger on the MCS kicking in immediately, it gives you the sense that you're actually going quicker than you really are. To be honest, it reminds me more of a TDi drive - except the torque is more spread out through the rev-range. It gets out of breath quite easily - probably...

True m8 - but unfortunately, it does have its obvious benefits... D.

The more I see of the valvers and the Willys with their off-set bonnet 'bulge' - the more I think they look great. It's a shame they didn't do something similar on the 182 - after all, the engine itself is still off-set to one side. Probably some aero-dynamic or NCAP safety reasoning as to why...
