Fear made me jump a few Times back in the day. The new one is shit, got bored of it after about ten mins.

What's up with this 40 odd bucks for dlc in bf 3 :/

Yeah fear 1 was alright. It did a good job building up suspense.

Anyone mention dead space? Scares me shitless but a good game none the less. Dead space 3 is about to come out and would recommend playing 1 and 2 prior to playing the new one.

I Have been playing dead space 1 over the last week, it has a pretty intense atmosphere thats for sure. Although once you get accustomed to where / how the enemies pop out at you it gets pretty predictable.

Anyone played the walking dead game?

I played through it, not really a game (more like a interactive movie) but never the less it gets a decent :thumbsup: from me, it has being a while since I have seen a 'game' with a decent storyline.

Yeah I think in general games are becoming an eye candy contest with little put into gameplay and storyline.I know I keep raving about it but Bioshock was probably the last game I played that sucked me in with the story. yet Another reason why the cod franchise has lost its shine for me

Been looking at G2play and was thinking about getting this one http://www.g2play.net/store/Battlefield-3-Premium-EA-Origin-Key.html not sure if I need the orig game though? All looks a bit confusing, I always thought DLC was for consoles.

Was also having a sneaky look at DOTA2 as well. so cheap >.>

yes you need the original game to play, alot of games come with DLC these days, in the case of BF3, the DLC is actually old school "expansions". With BF3 each expansion comes with new game modes, maps, vehicles, weapons etc for multiplayer. The premium pack gives you all expansions, as well as 2 weeks early access to them when each comes out

"NOTE: You need to have Battlefield 3 installed to use the pack!"

I heard that game is designed for tax accountants...

Being an accountant would help, certainly. It's the most intricate game I've ever played, bar none.

It's good fun, too, especially when you have some decent skills and a mate or two to play with. Smashing noobs in C3 wormholes in our Legions was fun :)

Destiny looks interesting. New game from bungie. However halo has been terrible since the first one so i will not hold my breath. Not coming till next year though....

I heard good things about EVE when it first came out, sequel must be a bit of a mind rape

There is a sequel coming? I thought there were just going to keep making expansions

I must be thinking of the expansions.

Been reading up on COH2, release date is December 2013 fk it all. Appears Sega has bought out THQ/the franchise so hoping for huge things from this game. Am going to check EB tomorrow night and buy BF3, they have premium edition for $50 atm...winning

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
