Talk about taking up too much time. I've just done my first stint in the Le Mans 24hr enduro on GT4.

I'll be doing 1 1/2hrs driving and 3 hrs break while B-spec Bob drives. One of my stints I've scheduled for 3am - 4:30am.

No pausing and no fast forwarding so the race will actually go for 24hrs.

I love that about GT4. So many people neglect the enduros with B-Spec and fast forward. They are among my favorite races (Good old pause whilst at work). Although yeah. 24 non stop 1 driver would be insane. I'm sure somebody, somewhere in the world has done it though.

Shame im selling my PS2 shortly Ive only kept it this long because of that game. Curse GT5 taking so long. Not that its a shock. But thats another discussion.

Ive been hitting Diablo 2 LOD again, a mixture of Snes Roms, and UFC 2009 (Only to stay in form for when i visit mates. lol)

Finished Borderlands, not much to do now except restart with a different character...

Got Dragon Age:Warriors... is ok, not really my kind of game but I'm getting more into it every time I play it :down:

I am a level 58 or 59 on modern warfare 2 on live. Really enjoy that game, the online never seems to get old.

Finished Alan Wake, that was a good game for the story, but gameplay can be a bit repetitive and frustrating.

Really want forza 3, are there actual "drift" events in the game? Can you get 34 gt-t's or any RWD skylines?

I also want Red Dead Redemption and can't wait for COD: Black Ops to come out.

If anyone here plays modern warfare 2 online, my gamertag is KAWA5AK1R1D3R (kawasakirider with digits, lol) it's all in caps, I'm not sure if that matters when entering friends on live. If you add me, leave a message saying you're from SAU and I'll accept ya.

No there arent any actual drift events in Forza 3. There isnt any RWD skylines stock although you can modify the GTR's to be RWD which can be completely spastic but none the less fun.

Finished both of these, both great games but Dragon Age goes forever! Plus i had to lower the settings to easy at certain stages as they were bl**dy hard.

Both games now have expansions. Borderlands has an expansion called Dr Neds zombie island or something, still the same funny action packed style of game.

+1 for Test Drive Unlimited being a great driving game.

I'm playing "Grid" ATM, quite a fun racing game, good graphics, good handling (keyboard only atm)... its focus is track driving, but has a nice mix of events like regular circuit stuff, drifting, tougue, demolition derby... heaps of fun.. :/ Also has online multiplayer, so you can race real people.

Also started playing Battlefield2:Bad Company 2 which is cool, nice single player story and involvement.

2 x 6.1k gs toons in WoW.

Play that StarTrek Online but it's starting to get boring.

Test drive unlimited is great for a thrash, got a G25 wheel.

Can't wait for TDU 2.

And Starcraft 2 is out, pity rego comes first.

I had Star Trek Online for a while but my got it got boring quick. At first you think this is awesome I have my own ship my own cruising around doing star trek captain sort of stuff, but then the bugs started like having to complete the same mission 6 times to get it to register or the constant rubber banding because there is no Australian server or the fact I couldnt log in half the time because it wouldnt let me - end rant. I played the STO beta and to be honest it worked better than the actual game.

I'm pretty keen on a G25 myself are they worth the money you guys?

Also in WOW what is GS? i'm still a bit of a noob

I agree on STO. It's unfortunate that games like these can be approved by the Star Trek Foundation thingy.. I guess it's accurate, just not fun.

G25 wheel is awesome, that + Test Drive Unlimited and you got something that feels pretty good. Eg, when you turn over a crest, the wheel gets lighter, telling you that if you go much further you'll get heaps of understeer. Again the game is a tad buggy, but an absolute hoot with friends. Imagine driving around Hawaii, with no restrictions. You dont "have" to race, there is no start and finish line, just cruise. And being an MMO you don't even need friends, just drive around and you'll see others pounding around, chase them down! Get it out of your system.

In WoW, GS refers to GearScore, an addon that assigns item values to items, giving you a total. So you need 5..2k gs (on our realm) to join an ICC raid. 5.5k gs+ is always preferred. Anything above 6k gs means you have all Item level 264's. Mine are 264 and 277 Heroics. :/

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
