    [360/PS3/PC] Borderlands 2

    Bingo. Got very boring, very quickly. Hopefully number 2 will address some of the progress grind in the game... D.

    +1,000! ;) D.

    Half Life: Black Mesa

    Hopefully Valve won't even question releasing that! I've got a whole host of ideas I wish they would implement into the third game - but my biggest 'wish' would be to add some diversity into the four characters. I don't want full-blown RPG-esque options and unlock trees - but some slight...

    Half Life: Black Mesa

    Looking forward to it, actually. Though I wish we'd get HL2 Episode 3 - or better, a true HL3. D.

    [PC/PS3/XB360] Battlefield 3 Official Thread

    That sounds like FPS nirvana to me. I think I'll be buying the Armoured Kill expansion on its own. D.

    Dreamcast

    The last console I got excited about was my Atari 2600.... ;) D.

    Exploding xbox

    Can't be. You're on the wrong side of the Pennines to think that. D.

    Ricky Hatton

    Was that at the Village on Ashton Moss? My girlfriend and I spotted him there the other Friday in the hotel lobby. Sounds like his regular! D.

    RB182 in the centre of Accrington

    With 'Renault Sport' badges on the side skirts - parked up near the centre about an hour ago. D.

    White RS200 - Pilsworth Asda, yesterday afternoon

    Looked clean, no CS sticker and certainly no boot spoiler (which meant a distinct lack of taste ;)) Probably about 12.30ish, I reckon. D.

    F1 2012

    Definitely going to nab the PC demo of this. :) D.

    Hello from Manchester

    Iirc, there's a few from Sale on here - or certainly that area. I'm in Ashton-under-Lyne, myself. Welcome to CS, by the way! D.

    Gaming laptop?

    Spot on. For such a small 'benefit' - they really aren't worth it. And for the weight of a (hot) medium family dog to be sat on your lap all that time too? I'd buy one for a gimmick - say a decent i5/i7 for something daft like £120. But other than that - not a chance. D.

    1.0 ltr Ford Engine vs Ferrari Enzo

    Lol! Sure, there are dangers - they cocked up with the Hindenburg for a start ;). But I'm sure with effort and money behind it, there would be ways to make the most abundant element in the known universe - a decent power source. D.

    Gaming laptop?

    Personally, I wouldn't go there. Gaming and laptops are two words that should never really be mixed. Their very nature (lack of upgrade paths, limited space, small screen, few USB ports, etc) means they are a bit poo for running most games. Universally it's the onboard graphics that let them...

    Nearside front indicator not working. Any ideas?

    Sorted it. Cleaned up the little pins on the bulb holder itself, then bent them slightly outwards with the tip of a small screwdriver. They looked a bit pushed-in. Reattached and all indicators work fine again now. :) D.

    Nearside front indicator not working. Any ideas?

    Swapped the bulb out with a new one, but still no joy. I'll try cleaning the connectors when I get home with a little wire brush. Any other suggestions I could try? Cheers, D.

    1.0 ltr Ford Engine vs Ferrari Enzo

    Totally agree. I despair of the 'electric fascination' that is bestowed on manufacturers at the minute. I will resist until the pumps run dry and I have no other option but to comply. I applaud Ford for this engine - a good technical achievement and even better marketing result. But I'm still...

    Grand Theft Auto V

    Gotta admit, it ran like s**te on my PC when I first got it. Mind you - that was v1.0000000001 - so it's kind of expected. I haven't noticed much else of being an issue - but the GTA series never really captivates me anyway. I played the one set to 80s music (San Andreas?) the most - but even...

    mr clutch updated again

    You're in Derby? With several specialists on here within a short drive from you? It sounds like you've had your fingers burnt once and fortunately, managed to get away with it. Polite, helpful and friendly they maybe - but aren't you asking for yet more potential risk with a 2nd visit...

    Thinking of selling the vee

    It's simple. If you've got the space to store the Vee - SORN it. Don't get shut because you 'feel' you have to. Of course, if you've nowhere to keep it in storage, then that's a more practical problem and you should consider selling up. D.

    Largest install size at the minute?

    Lol. I was an Amiga person through and through. But I do recognise Atari's influence with my wallet ;) Not forgetting I still have my 2600 Woody at home too! D.

    Largest install size at the minute?

    Yeah - it's a proper behemoth that game. I still need to focus more time on it, but I always get distracted with something else! D.

    Largest install size at the minute?

    Just curious really. I reformatted the PC on Tuesday night and in the process of putting stuff back on, I was wondering what the largest install size is that you've come across, recently? I reinstalled Shogun 2 and that tipped the scales at 26GB - even though I haven't got all of the DLCs for...

    Problem with pc when playing games

    PMSL! I haven't seen one that bad since I bought a Physx card off eBay years back! One of the benefits of having several air-compressors at work - I blast out my PC every couple of months. Glad you got the issue sorted too. :) D.

    Problem with pc when playing games

    ^^^ - that sounds the most likely culprit. I ran that same board for years with ATi, single nVidia cards and nVidia cards in SLi without the issues you mention. Being the SLi-spec board as well, both PCI-e slots run at x16 - so it shouldn't matter which slot your gfx card is in. Some of the...

    Couple in Burton-on-Trent...

    '03 silver 172 yesterday and an RB 182 heading up towards Sainsburys earlier this afternoon. Also spotted an 182 Baked Bean on the A515 on the way down here yesterday, near Pomeroy (sp?) D.

    Old Borderlands....
