All you have to do is buy a copy on US Ebay and have it shipped here .... too easy. Or better yet, the gay classification (or lack thereof) makes it almost legitimate for us to pirate/torrent the game

stalker will be good.

i think so also

Based on what?

That its been in development for 5 years?

using out dated technology?

Got Alpha demo!

look @ steam when the source code was 'stolen' it went back into development for 3 years

But it will have outdated gameplay mechanics.

It doesn't do anything new.

by the statement doesnt do anything new is just plain silly look @ the amount of people still playing quake games and ET they dont do anything new there built on solid game play of CTF and whatever ET's gameplay is capture and hold

i still have the Alpha demo it was solid and the movie that i saw of stalekr just then hosted @ GA still looks ok

but if you dont like it thats fine just dont buy it and start complaining how they should of done this and that

Finally got vista installed, but the funny thing is i didnt do anything different.

I had the first half on my 74gig raptor for xp, then the last half broken into 3 pieces - 15g for Ubuntu, 7gig a swap partition, then a free 7 gigs...

Installed vista on the last partition and it worked...

Basically doing not what they recommend to do - to have all the os's up the front of the partition blocks.

Once it was in (in the small 7 gig space) i had to delete the middle 2, and resize vista to take over....

Now ive got 30gig fer xp, and 30 for vista :domokun:

cool

Fraps is a sweet program - will make a 3rd MajorTangles BF2 fraps video soon (first 2 are linked in the sau games discussion section; 1st one didnt work out that well, 2nd one is funny IMO), will do it on shock paddle kills for say 50% and the other 50% would be footage of a variety of say a minimum of 4kill efforts.

Ok Madaz, that must mean that commodores and falcons are the best cos people keep buying them.

CSS is boring plain and simple. It was good 7 years ago, but i've since gotten bored of it and have been playing other games.

I'm sure stalker will be a confident game but it will offer nothing new to the genre, as has been the case for many years now. And there is nothing on the horizon that suggests that will change.

Gaming really has become boring since the playstation era.

Thats really a personal thing. I never got into ps much, but my friends had em, and i played em. TBH the only game i ever got into was gran turismo...

I need at least 2 or 3 games to play at the same time cos i get bored too easy..

I don't think it's a personal thing.

Gaming has lost all originality since the playstation era. Sure there have been a few new franchises but almost everything is a sequal.

There really hasn't been many significant gameplay changes for a while now, but then again, do games need innovation to be fun? Have you picked up and played a Wii for any amount of time?

I've recently gotten back into RTS's with the release of Supreme Commander but I really don't see any major gameplay innovations for a sequel that was released 10 years after the original, it is still a lot of fun though!

I just want more titles like Okami, Loco Roco, we love katamari, etc, etc.

I've been gaming for 18 years or so now and i just find it the same old thing.

I took the company PS3 home the other night, and it really wasn't all that interesting. It doesn't do anything that can't already be done.

And GT HD is shocking, it's the same as GT1 only with better graphics.

Unfortunatly old bastards like myself (gaming for 20 years +) and yourself have seen pretty much everything thats been around. Back to the old Atari 2600...:D

Nothing new in terms of genre of gaming has been released up until recently with the Wii and its wave your arms around like your being attacked by a swarm of bees type games....

If you find something u like rpg, fps, etc...its always "how could they make this better" type of thing not "what can we do that hasnt been done before...?"

call me ignorant but i think the whole m$ and xbox thing is a piece of shit. I dont consider myself a fan of either of the "big two" in gaming consoles either. ps3 is more of a hard core console and I think its biggest titles and developments in features will be realised in the future when developers get used to its SDK environment. The new metal gear looks so cool.

All three consoles will have great titles, thats why i have about 20 different consoles.

Some games i can only get on certain platforms so it's not the manufacture that sways my gaming habbits, it's the games.

So as long as good games come out on ps3, 360, and wii i will continue to buy them.

after owning an original ping pong machine in the late 70's, a Commodore 64 through the 80's, Pentium in the early 90's, Nintendo, Playstation and Playstation 2, plus a full deck Pentium now........... I dont think Id ever get back into a console machine for gaming, a good PC does it all in my opinion.

as far as games go, console games are too expensive. Only played two games in the past 18 months both of them being online games 1st was day of Defeat: Source for 3 months, plus 40mins only of Counter Strike: Source (hate it, what a terrible game full of free hacks), but the past 850hours of gaming Ive spent on Battlefield 2. What an awesome game, every round there is something 'different' to do or try out.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure

      Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By oHBoy. · Posted

      Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
