I wasn't saying they didn't sell, just saying that they weren't aiming the console at serious games, but more the family market. if course they sold more, given how much cheaper the console is and how much more user friendly the games are for multiplayer and drunks, lol.

was thinking this.

missus is a nintendo lover, and always wonders why they dont upgrade the graphics on mario games.

I chuckle inside.

Nintendo have showcased a few games but their main push is of the Wii U, which came out end of last year (I think). No other console is on the cards.

Ah fairy nuff! I'm supposing the "Wii U" is quite similar to the Wii then?

This saddens me as I didn't like my Wii so much that I sold it a few years ago, lol.

nintendo is a thing if the past in the serious game market. they are aiming at the family market and kids. they haven't been at the forefront of console games since the snes imho. n64 had ok gameplay with the whole 3d world's, but graphics were boxy.

Yeah, I pretty much thought this. Disappointing for me but hey, they gotta' turn a profit somehow!

I'll get a PS4 when it's released, the release price is pretty reasonable.

Watch dogs looks good too

I was going to get a G27/cockpit setup for my PS3, but I might hold off now in case there's a new or different setup needed for the PS4

For now I'll probably end up going with the PS4, but still best to wait until both systems are out.

Since the XB1 kinect is a primary part of the console it'll be better utilized than how it was for the 360 so I'm keen to see how well (or bad) they do this.

Both also have awesome exclusives too and will require payment to play online multiplayer.

Schme.

Yes, the Steam Box is powerful compared to current consoles, but new hardware from Microsoft and Sony is due later this year. Worse, Valve will be launching its first console amidst strong marketing campaigns from these two giants. The Steam Box could simply be lost in the noise. (extract for the above article)

It's a cheap computer, yes?

I was always going to buy an Xbox1, but...

PR SCAM

And the award for most bait taken goes to...SONY!

That's what I reckon, too.

Kinect and Xbox Live pwns anything Sony has and Xbox being the central hub of my house is going to be totally tits.

A friend and I were discussing the XboxOne saga the other night...

He'd heard something on the internet (insert credibility here) along the lines of Microsoft wanting to have the most powerful system with x amount of RAM, but then Sony matching that in their specs so Microsoft could no longer claim it...then Microsoft expected to win the pricing competition with PS historically being more expensive upon first release...thereby allowing MS to get away with a heap of DRM and exclusivity crap based on swinging consumers opting for the cheaper console regardless...then bam Sony says $400...Microsoft hold emergency meeting and can't do anything to adjust price, so they drop their competitive disadvantages (DRM bullshit) instead.

Still side with the PR stunt, but there are some interesting theories out there.

I'm actually pretty disappointed that MS back flipped. And I'm sure as Hell not the only one.

The "problems" with the X1 didn't bother me in the slightest. I don't trade/buy second hand games, I don't tend to play old gen games, and my Xbox is online 24/7 anyway. What's the big f**kin' deal?

MS are building a steambox. Awesome. That's exactly what I'm after.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
