Ashamed to say it but I only just found out about the new Fallout Game coming out, not much of a gamer these days but I make the odd exception like fallout :wacko:

looks like the original developers of fallout 2 are working on this one, The thing I liked the most about Fallout 2 when it came out was the humour & pop culture references littered all over the game, hopefully they can re-capture that atmosphere in this new one?

Fallout 2 was awesome. So much you could do and even your actions determined the course you take. Fallout 3 was alright but preferred 2 still. Hopefully this one made by the original developers would bring this one to sucess.

I just hope the new one has a higher bloody level cap and is a bit harder.

+ 1 for the level cap, I finished half of Fallout 3 and I was already maxed out. I think it will be good but not as good as Fallout 3, Obsidian entertainment always make good sequels but they are rarely if ever better than the original. Obsidian made Knights Of The Old Republic 2, which is buggy and as you all know not as good as KOTOR 1.

Pre-ordered this on Steam $49USD :)

Hows things dude? :-)

I do like steam but i dont know if they have massive savings they make it out to be, over say EB games definately, but against say Aussie Gamer for $80 Aus delivered to ya door... might be a small saving over steam, some of the games though like Bioshock 2 delivered to my door for $37 was always a good deal :-)

Does steam take up some of your bandwidth allocation? i have 25GB each month so not a big dent, but it was 12GB per month so steam would have killed my broadband allowance if it goes towards your actual allowance.. hope i am making sense??

fail troll fails

not trolling, I was seriously unimpressed by the game... The storyline was f**king shit, the ending sucked dogs balls especially... They actually FORCE you to go into the stupid chamber full of radiation and die... completely ignoring the facts that you've been fighting radiation the whole game, have radiation suits, rad-aways and a new friend who is completely immune to radiation. You even get to ask him and he's all like 'This is your destiny, I can not interfere...'

I stood there for like 5 minutes... they're all just staring at me, forcing me to committ suicide. It was a seriously depressing thing to have to go through.

This is after you spent ages fighting a government branch who ALSO WANTED TO TURN THE DAMN THING ON! Why the f**k were we fighting? Why not just let them do it?

Stupid f**king game.

Hi Dan,

Cost me $60 from Steam with the current exchange rate, so still cheaper. I tend to look around to see whos got the best deal before I buy the lastest games.

I have 60Gb Peak + 60Gb Off-peak, so doesn't make much of a dent in my allocation.

Cheers

dude kotor 2 was f**king epic, apart from a couple of bad bugs

I agree it was a brilliant game but I dont think it was a good as the first, the whole Revan story line was just epic and couldnt be topped. And the bugs drove me up the f**king wall, maybe my computer just really didnt like it, I dont know. Dont get me wrong its still a 8.5/10 game but the first KOTOR was 9.7/10 in my mind.

Fallout 3 was very good. never played the previous series. Who is making it obsidian? Ill deffinately have to purchase this

KOTOR 1 & 2 are my favourite games of all time. Why the f**k havent they made a next gen sequel yet????

Personally I have no idea, I think its because Bioware are making "Star Wars: The Old Republic" MMO which looks absolutely awesome. It seems these days companies would rather have 500k people paying a monthly subscription than have 10 million buy a game. The KOTOR series was a hit but the sales we're never astronomical, 2 million for KOTOR 1 and 1.33 million for KOTOR 2, that is only on the XBOX but even if it was a huge seller on the PC that market really isnt there any more. Even RTS games like Command and Conquer have gone multi-platform.

Anyway here's the latest trailer for New Vegas, the graphics look exactly the same as Fallout 3, but who cares? that was awesome and I reckon this will be too.

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.

      Regardless of neglect or incompetence, fixing either is tedious and annoying. Most of the neglect on my car is definitely rust. I hope I can at least pass inspections later on and they won't fail the car due to slightly corroded hardlines. I was generous with rust converter and wax and it looks ok, most lines in the rear are hard to see properly anyways.  Definitely will test them though to make sure they don't rupture under pressure, in that case the car isn't going anywhere this year.
