    World Of Warcraft Japanese Players guide

    Yes, my wife is Japanese and speaks English, and yea I'm having a hard time explaining gameplay mechanics to her. For example, she wanted to play a rogue, and I was explaining combo points, but she just didn't understand, and yea I don't think a cookie cutter MMO guide will suffice. My wife...

    World Of Warcraft Japanese Players guide

    XBLA Multiplayer!

    Take it as you want, but I actually enjoy competition when I play, and I can never find people to play on XBL.

    XBLA Multiplayer!

    Can't connect to a multiplayer game? No games available? Want some score competition in Geometry Wars? If your like me, you run into these problems all the time. I love XBLA, I have 20+ games from it, but my biggest problem that I'm running into is no one to play with. My gamer tag is...

    Regenerating health

    I think its pretty lame that some game devs artificially increase difficulty with lack of said medpacks, but at the same time health regen is lame too. Duke Nukem is pretty spot on with their health management, allowing you only to carry 1 medpack for emergencys, and the health items are pretty...

    Can print a test page, but can't print from any application; fresh system

    Yea I would check to make sure its the only printer listed in your control panel. I know default is a microsoft document printer or something, so make sure that your printer is selected as default. Another thing regarding your random restarts, what program are you using to test your RAM? And...

    What are your favorite FPS's?

    Half Life 2 is a great game, don't get me wrong. I love it, but it just didn't make it to my top 3, but definelty would make my top 5. I bought it when it was first released, and man the whole game is done just right. I literally felt I was playing in an over the top movie like Batman...

    COD: WaW

    Personally I won't be buying it, and I haven't even played the demo. The WW2 FPS genre is a dead horse, hell I would even say that its dogfood already.

    What are your favorite FPS's?

    Yea I totally forgot about the Halo series on XBOX... people didn't like me very much playing on system link lol. And the Mechwarrior series... man I totally love Mechwarrior! I even had the pleasure to play the first Mechwarrior when I was like 10 over at my friends house, and that was in...

    What are your favorite FPS's?

    The other day I was sitting down thinking of games gone by, and I started reminicing about all the FPS's I've enjoyed over the years, and well I wanted to see what other people were playing as well and what they enjoyed. Here is my list: Top 3: #1: Deus Ex #2: Half Life #3: Oblivion (may...

    Another one of those lovely EA mishaps

    I know it doesn't mean much in this economy, but EA (Stock Symbol ERTS) is loosing money. ERTS Stock As far as a boycott, its time to start for me. After buying WAR for me and Spore (against my better judgement and will) for my wife, I'm dissatisfied to say the least.

    First Build _ Tips/Suggestions?

    As far as installing everything outside the case, I've never done that, never had a reason too. But if you do, MAKE SURE YOU ARE GROUNDED AND YOUR SURFACE IS NON-CONDUCTIVE! Being an AT (aviation electronics technician) in the Navy, people say that ESD is a myth. If you believe that, then you...

    Yea its irritating me as well. I reverted to using WinDirStat, but why on earth can't I see the total folder size in details is beyond me. Anyone send an email to M$ about this yet?

    Weird crashing...

    I know this is a dumb question, but did you do a clean install of XP? You said you were using original drives, and if you just reinstalled all your drivers over the existing ones that could be a problem. There might be conflicting drivers still in the registry. But whether or not you did a...

    Please help

    Something might have been grounding out a component on the motherboard, a stray screw, metal shavings from the case, something.

    Who will not be purchasing Far Cry 2 because of its DRM?

    Yea thats a double-edged sword with Steam. Once you buy the game, your stuck with it. You can't let your friend borrow it, and you sure as hell can't take it to gamestop to get a trade in. And yea, I'm not cool with $54.00 rentals either. I just wish there weren't conglomerate publishers like EA...

    Splitting HMDI Audio from video

    I'm down with signing a NDA, I'm not going to give out the code to anyone, although I'm sure people a lot smarter than me can figure out the encoding if they had an HDMI chip set. So, hypothetically speaking, I want to start a company and I figure out the schematics necessary to make a...

    Constant Freezing in Games

    What other games do you have installed? DRM might be an issue here, sounds totally software, I don't think its hardware at all since you replaced or changed vital components.

    Splitting HMDI Audio from video

    Yea, shortly after my last post I did a google for the pin outs on HDMI cables, and yea all I saw was clock, data, and grounds. Makes sense now that I think about it. I wonder if it would be possible to make a CB with a decoder chip on it for cheap...

    Who will not be purchasing Far Cry 2 because of its DRM?

    I don't have a problem with DRM, what I have a problem with is the invasive install process and monitoring that it does to my system, not to mention the fact that I'm burning $54.00 on a rental, because I truley do not own my own copy. I do not pirate games, and I do not support anyone that...

    Splitting HMDI Audio from video

    Ahhh, I see. How convenient of them to hide the HDMI port when the A/V cables are installed. Looking at my connector now I see that its abnormally big, obviously not by accident. So, I need shell out 50 more bucks to M$... awesome... Thanks though man, I really appreciate it.

    Splitting HMDI Audio from video

    The problem: I'm deploying soon and taking my computer with me, and I will use the monitor to connect both my PC and XBOX 360. When connecting my XBOX 360 to my HP w2207 monitor via HMDI I am forced to use the crappy speakers on the monitor. What I need to happen: Some how split the audio...

    CPU, RAM, and GPU stress software

    Hey guys, I just built my new rig on Monday and I was doing some searching around on google to see if I could find some sort of program that does burn-ins or stress tests for the major components. I have about 30 days left before my initial free replacement warranty runs out (through Newegg)...
