    Half-Life 3 Trolling?

    The real question is what has valve been wasting time on the paste 4 years? Their engine hasn't improved much. Portal 2 and hl2 are both sequals.. I think they just have a lazy team.

    Is this game good ? Titan Quest.....

    Its a great game with one huge problem there is no secure character storage so you can just edit your char to be amazing and play it online, it de-values items and makes trade worthless. So if you enjoy playing diablo2 in single player mode buy it. If you like multiplayer then just play Diablo2...

    Why aren't MMOs bigger on consoles?

    Its all about the money on pc blizzard gets 100% of your fee. On console im sure there would be a large cut to sony/ms. Why do this when you can get what? 17 million wow subscribers. You buy a console sony/ms own you, all there is to it.

    Ace Combat Assault Horizon. Wait, what?

    So i hate asking this but... what system is better to buy a game like this on? I ask because ive seen some really bad and choppy ps3 ports (blazing angels for example). 360 also has better party chat features. I cant wait for tomorrow.

    Can only afford 1 game, Battlefield 3 or Modern Warefare 3?

    MW3 if you cant manage above a 1:1 KD in games with a minimap like pontifex. BF3 if you want a great game.

    Warhammer 40k fans, Space Marine now has a release date and other new info

    Awesome game, loved it. All the comparisons to gears of war are nonsense. I played from start to finish in one night i was so glued to the screen. Mutiplayer is total crap but i dont think anybody was expecting that. Hopefully this co-op dlc will be fun.

    Warhammer: Space Marine

    The game is pretty close to out, can anybody verify that this game has good PC controls (AKA i can customize my keyboard layout ect ect..). Do i have a proper game server browser? In other words is this a crappy console port? I really want this game to be good. But im not paying for console...

    Any chance of recovering this raid array?

    Or the fact that you bought 5 drive at the same time that then later in service began to fail in close proximity. Unless u have a different drive in the system with different usage. Its a sound theory. Replace all of them.

    Arch Obsession?

    I think one of the big things about Arch is its release model. Unlike fedora/ubuntu which go with major revs and often don't leave upgrade paths or close repos after some time leaving you stranded to get updates easily. I guess you can get the same thing with Debian Mint.

    Script help (sudoed user id)

    whoami doesnt work. These users do "sudo su -" which loads the env variables of the user you Sudoed too Also echo $SUDO_USER does not work in this case. I came up with this to do it: REALUSERID=`TTYTEST=$(ps | awk '{print $2}' |tail -1); ps -ef |grep "$TTYTEST$" |awk '{print $1}'`
