I own 1 and 3. They both have an incredible sense of speed to the game. The first time you use boost its crazy. your car rockets to 150+ and you start to get tunnel vision. its on of the few games that creates a physical reaction in me (heart rate increasing, breathing change, adreniline rush).
Burnout 1 was more about using boost but being careful, hit something a bit to hard and you crash and lose boost. Burnout 3 is all about crashing and mayhem. It lets you slam into competiors much more than 1 did. Also it seems a bit more forgiving if you hit a wall.
I think burnout 1 was harder, but im no where near done with 3. There are about 4 or 5 types of races in 3 with only 1 in 1. And the circuits in 3 have been made easier to pass. In burnout 1 you had 4 tries to place in 3 races in a row (a circuit), with the last race being insane. in 3 you get unlimited tries for the circuit, so if you fail the last one, you can keep retring without having to do the first 2 over and over.
Not sure what to tell you about 2, it would have to be an improvement over 1, but not as good as 3. go buy and xbox and get 3
What you have to do is go to the Crash-Nav menu system. you might have to back out one more time, not 100% sure, but i dont think so. i think it is hit Y for driver details. then at the bottom there is audio or settings. if you pick this you will see the soundtracks listed. pressing X cycles thru your playlists. no way to go back, just forward one at a time. when you find one you want, back out of this and go back to the crash nav.
that was posted by memory, when i get home if i remember i could turn the game on. its kind of a pain, becuse you have to exit out of any race you are in. its not the easiest to use interface, but it works. after a couple days i was getting sick of the stock music, didnt realize i had been playing it that much./ you can also turn the announcer off where the sound and music volumes are.
Thats cool. Wonder if neilsen has set up deals with cable providers to see what shows users with digital cable watch. (that news blurb is 4 years old, some stuff must have changed by now)
I think pot is much safer than booze. just from my personal experiences. i was talking about alcohol. its not really safe. it can be harmfull depending on how you (ab)use it. same thing with any other drug, legal or illegal.
No it doesn't allow lots of technically illiterate people access to your mail. An email has to arrive at a gmail inbox, with a bad from field in the header. the sending mail client must leave > of the end of the field. It would take a bit of skill to get a client that does this. Also the article makes no mention if the information revealed is random, or the same each time. my guess is that it is randomly pulling data each time a damaged email is recieved, but the article didn't specify if the same "extra" information is revealed each time an email is opened.
In the USA the law does NOT dictate the permission is needed. In most states as long as you are a party in the conversation you can record the conversation. Each state has slightly different laws. Someone else already posted a comment with a site with outlines for each different states laws
Ooooops. I did read the article, but then confused what article described with one of my past experiences. I had WMP ask me to download a codec to play some movie file once. Being lazy I didn't let it, and didnt care about playing the movie. So as long as you don't let programs do anything for you automatically, you should be safer Haven't upgraded to this new version yet, and since i never really use it, i dont think i will anytime soon.
This happened to me with Burnout 1 and 3. After playing for a while, when im out driving i will find myself going for a near-miss with all the parked cars on the roads. Each time i think, heh, i could get a bit closer. And in the winter i try slide my back end around every corner, but then again i haev been doing that for as long as i have been driving.
No, in this case WMP asked to go download and install the codec needed to play the video file. When the user clicks yes, then their system becomes infected. So if you don't trust the video source, or set WMP to not download codec you will be safe
Overall, the top suppliers of oil (crude and refined products) to the United States during 2003 were Canada (2.1 MMBD), Saudi Arabia (1.8 MMBD), Mexico (1.6 MMBD), and Venezuela (1.4 MMBD).
Dang Canadians! Lets stop giving those hockey playing moose chasing beer drinking hoosiers our money.
i thaught the majority of hijackers on 9/11 were from iran? correct me if im wrong. the usa has sancations against iran and libya, so they dont get any oil money from us.
maybe once we set up a democracy in iraq, they will become a big supplier of oil for america, who knows...
just read this while waiting for the preview...
U.S. competitors in Europe and Japan depend much more on Gulf oil than the U.S. does: 30% of European oil imports and nearly 80% of Japan's come from the Gulf. The U.S. exerts significant influence on these countries through control of Gulf oil.
wow, i thaught i was getting shafted with 10$ in Albany, seeing as they are still 8.50 or 8.75 in Buffalo. What city are you in? or is it for those fancy imax movies?
How does the movie cost 40$ then?
2 people 10$ for a ticket, is 20$.
so
20 babysitter
40 dinner
20 tickets
thats still 80, but for a good dinner, and a movie, that sounds reasonable.
I have a thinkpad and used the red nipple mouse all the time. after a while it started moving on its own. i took the nipple off and cleaned under it, and that helped. after a while tho, i had to replace the nipple, cus it got so dirty and wore out.
my guess was dirt got stuck under it, not letting the mouse return to a home position, and after a while, the nipple got so wore out, dust was always getting under there
wouldn't a better troll, be some comment that got a big argument started? With such a ignorant comment, no one could possibly side with the orginal poster.
i am new to this posting stuff, so maybe its just me, i thaught the orginal poster didn't know what they were talking about
Static RAM retains its value as long as it has power. It is made up of alot of transistors. It is fast, and doesn't need to be refreshed, but expensh.
Dynamic RAM needs to be refreshed every so often, because it uses capacitors to store the charge, and this charge leaks out, so if it doesnt get refreshed, it will be lost. If is slower, but cheaper
If you write a program to request some memory (using malloc), you will get some from the system, regardless if the hardware in the machine is using S or D ram.

Um, yeah, unless your a member of the Neilson rating survey, what you watch doesn't flipping matter.
The ratings done by neilson are just a sample of what america is actually watching.
unless these new fangled digital cable boxes phone home and tell Adelphia what i am watching. uh oh, time for tinfoil hat on my cable box.

I hope your being sarcastic with that "relatively safe" term.
It is fun, but not safe by any means.

its old, but lots of stuff hasen't changed from 97.
what?
are you trying to go into the ins and outs of cricekt?
i didn't realize cricket went beoynd england and australia.
weird thing is nothing about the olympics in the results.
"the general intellectual, moral, and cultural climate of an era"
the people at google like to rub in the fact they are smart and know these big words
how is cricket in the top 10 sports?
What happens if the pirates invoke the right of parley?
>Why? Because the government realized that broadband is essential to modern life
No its not.
Helpful. Yes.
Handy. Yes.
Essential. No.
in response to your sig, I thaught the phrase was "couldn't care less"
wow, i thaught i was getting shafted with 10$ in Albany, seeing as they are still 8.50 or 8.75 in Buffalo.
What city are you in?
or is it for those fancy imax movies?
