  1. Re:Funny on Gran Turismo 5 Prologue Spawns Real-Life Car · · Score: 0

    If you are really into driving, PS3 is the only answer. MS only allows their shitty wireless wheel to be used with the xbox. THe Ps3 allows almost any logitech wheel. Im still using my old GT4 PS2 (works on PC too) wheel on my PS3.

    ITs more than just gauges. Its a complete tuning interface. G force acceleration, body roll, all kinds of fun telemetry in a production car.

  3. Last nintendo Console for me on Nintendo's Wii Storage Solution — SD Cards · · Score: 1

    I was so happy when Wii came out, but now all I have is disappointment once again. I will not buy another nintendo console until they give up their irrational fear of the internet. They didnt really think ahead of lets get this box out the door. Fuck them and their shitty online, shit storage, and shovelware games. Is it really too much to ask to be able to backup your savegames from online enabled games? Im done, selling it on Ebay tonight.

    No, you should be paying attn to the road. When you are on the phone, it changes your immediate attn focus.

    As long as Im not breaking the law, I will drive however I damn well please. IF I feel i need to go slower I will. If that means cars pile up behind, guess what , in my state we have laws stating you have to pull over and allow faster traffic to pass once the backup reaches a certain number of cars (3 or more I think). SO if I wanto t go slow I will, and when I am danger of breaking the law, I will comply. Just becasue you may have a BMW that can handle the road better then my Sentra doesnt mean you can dictate how I drive as long as im within the law.

    I assumed it worked like iTunes, where it directly converts, instead of recording the analog output.

    Are you really that stupid? Look up the term 'tyranny of the majority'. In a free society, a true republic, might does not make right.

    A VERY simple solution is for the ISPs TO STOP OVERSELLING. You make it sound as this is OUR fault for expecting full use of a service that is labeled UNLIMITED.

    Please explain to me , using simple words, how google is a monopoly and in what sector of business.

    The United States is NOT a true democracy, we are a republic. The will of the people is not always the correct action, no matter how many scream for it. It may seem a bit pedantic, but it is a very important distinction.

    How is re-encoding your .wmvs to .wav and then laying down that info on a CD in ANY WAY using the 'analog-hole'?

    Its funny how they positioned Spore in front of the incoming wave of AAA titles. Makes it easy to forget it existed.

    'Making something public' is not even the close to the same as full legal disclosure on the retail box.

  21. Re:GOLD = BAD on Mythic GM Talks Warhammer Launch, Banning Gold Sellers · · Score: 1

    Why do you think you should be entitled to an epic mount (a vanity) becasue you dont want to put the work in like everyone else? The long and short of it is, if allowed to run unchecked, the gold sellers would very quickly inflate the market due to their competition, thus unbalancing the set amount of gold the game gives for quests, mob drops etc. It would be an ever increasing escalation of pricing in the market. We do not want third party market forces affecting the game if possible, its called cheating. This isnt a debate of time vs. money. Its becasue you are obsessed with money that you think its ok to jsut buy your way into everything in life. Not everything in life is intended to be bought and sold. You dont need an epic flyer to be competitive or have fun in the game. This doesnt even address the fact that a vast majority of the gold comes from hacked accounts.

    Those items never confer in game advantages though. They are simply vanity items.

    I somehow doubt AA turned on unless you did something more than run in windowed mode. It takes more than that to activate it.

    You can force AA in the Video card control panel of your computer. You can even make a profile to turn on AA and link it to the warhammer .exe. It looks fantatstic. Im currently running 1920x1200 4 x AA That EULA has got to go, a scroll and 2 clicks EVERY single time is so annoying.
