    Going to pick up NFS:Shift, should I throw NFS:Undercover in the cart as well?

    (I know they're completely different styles and one is more along the lines of GRID. ) I'm still not clear why Undercover got such bad reviews and if it's worth the $10 or not. Are these the same people who also dislike NFS:U / U2 / MW / C? (ProStreet was genuinely bad, imo) Or do they have a...

    How this for a budget point and shoot?

    I'm looking to pick up something cheap for shooting pictures of my rig, zoomed in pics of computer components and electronics, and other things of that nature. How's this pick (both in terms of the camera itself and also the price)? Yay? Nay?

    Harbor Freight?

    How's Harbor Freight as far as shipping time? Their FAQs page says 10-14 days... I need something that Home Depot doesn't seem to stock, at least in their online catalog (metal punch).

    New HOTAS + rudder pedal set from Logitech

    I just saw this mentioned over at AvSim: Flight System G940 The stick looks non-adjustable, so it'd be unsuitable for me. (I don't think there's any joystick on the market that isn't too big for me right out of the box, so I have to go with the higher end Saitek sticks.) Other than...

    New games coming packaged in regular DVD cases now?

    I think just about all of the games I've bought the past few years have come packaged inside of those double-wide DVD style cases, which, while nice because of the standardization, were kind of annoying at the same time because they took up twice as much space as a console game. A couple of...

    EVGA Loaner Program (for the 3D glasses and for a X58 board)

    Question about the Guitar Hero / Rock Band guitars

    How big are they? Not full size, I assume/hope? Can you take them apart easily / disassemble them for storage? I saw at least one third party guitar that specifically said in the description that it could be taken apart into three pieces...didn't know if that was the case with the other...

    TR: "Nvidia goes stereoscopic with GeForce 3D Vision"

    This is one of the better reviews of the Stereo 3D tech I've seen: Nvidia goes stereoscopic with GeForce 3D Vision They go into pretty good detail as far as which games work well, which ones don't. What settings you might have to change to get the 3D effect to look decent. Etc. There's...

    QQ about the "basic" Wii package

    Had a QQ about the most basic Wii console package (the one that goes for $250 MSRP) -- it comes with the Nunchuk add-on and Wii Sports, right? Trying to figure out what the cheapest package that still has everything needed for one person to get started with is.

    Creative Zen or Sansa Fuze

    Alright, I'm having a hard time deciding between these two. 1) Creative Zen 2) SanDisk Sansa Fuse Either way, I'll eventually be getting some SD or microSD expansion cards. My collection is only 13 gig or so anyway, so I don't need a massive amount of built-in capacity. Right now, I...

    Mystery Corsair PSU ("CMPSU-400CX")

    Need some ideas (lower wattage modular PSU)

    I can't decide what to get :o. I need a PSU for my Folding machine / Linux server. Just a basic dual core system with integrated graphics. I'd really prefer a quiet, modular one. No "blingy" PSUs, especially LED fans. Why is this so hard? Because I don't want two identical PSUs. I guess one...

    Nehalem's official name: "Core i7"

    According to Expreview: "Nehalem to become Core i7 processor" (they've got pictures of logos too) </facepalm> Yes, I'm slightly bitter about wrongly guessing that they'd use "Core 3". I assumed they'd choose something semi-logical, instead of picking a random number out of a hat... EDIT...

    "AMD: EVGA wanted to sell ATI cards"
