  1. Looks like it should be much faster paced film this time around. Wondering if some of those shots are for the third film though, cos if all those shots are for just this film they're not going to have much left over for the last one.
  2. I spy; 2 USB 2.0 ports 4 USB 3.0 ports 3 DVI outputs (one likely dud) 2 HDMI ports (one likely dud) 2 DisplayPorts (one likely dud) 1 Ethernet port 5 3.5mm jacks 1 TOSLINK 1 e-SATA 2 Wi-fi antenna 1 PS2 port And a partridge in a pair tree. (And maybe a kensington lock, they're pretty rare on desktops these days though) Some proper press shots. http://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamuniverse#announcements/detail/1966113289566972393
  3. Oh he'll likely die in a Porsche accident.
  4. And DVI n HDMI too (Though no sound). Actually a thought on the "no sound" thing. My current GPU doesn't have a HDMI port (it's a bit before they became popular on PCs) so I don't know this in practice. Surely as it's coming out of the GPU... it's only going to do video anyway? Unless graphic cards are doing double duty as sound cards these days?
  5. Oh right. Yeah crossing the time stream. Been done tons of times before. Even in the newer runs the 5th n 10th have had a bit of a chat.
  6. It doesn't support HDCP which might be what CrowKnow was getting at (since it supported "HD" long before "HD" was even what people called it). DVI is the alternative, and the more modern (well..it's like a decade old buy VGA has held on well), replacement to VGA. That'll go all the way up to 2560*1600. As with VGA it's only video. However most TVs have a audio-in anyway (and on top of that if you're fancy you'll have a nice surround sound kit). HDMI goes up to 1920*1200 unless you're on a shiny HDMI 2.0 connector that'll support 4K, but they're a rather recent invention and if your TV is still rocking a VGA connector it's unlikely it'll be rocking a HDMI 2.0 port. And as already noted most computers have HDMI out anyway these days. In fact finding a PC with VGA is going to get harder n harder with time. Most GPUs output to HDMI, DVI and DisplayPort.
  7. They're absolutely only making 300 of those. They're going to be worth well in excess of what their internal guts would value them at. http://www.theverge.com/2013/11/4/5063760/we-try-the-steam-machine-valves-video-game-console-of-the-future (man they still have shitty sites) Also maybe GPU design has advanced a bit since I last stuck one into a PC, but I'm pretty sure that GPU isn't plugged into anything. Not even screwed into the case by the looks of it. Also not a great shot, but it actually seems a bit more bespoke than I'd have expected. PSU is next to nothing there would be the biggy (in fact apart from the hole in the case I don't think it's there). Verge seem pretty amazed by basic airflow design though. Oh wait no, Wired have shots from the other side: http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2013/11/valve-steam-machines/all/ PSU is on the other side of the case. So I assume a lead is running through the case to the back. Man it's like a sardine can in there. Also is it really just a flap holding in the HDD? Only taken like...5 years?
  8. Unless I'm missing something in some of the media released so far pretty sure John Hurt is
  9. True Facts - Bryan Adams was 10 years old in the Summer of '69.
  10. Not quite. In fact phone industry has recently "gone nuclear". It makes it dramatic.
  11. Yeah I'm kind of curious where the hell they're aiming to go with the Republic City storyline and how they plan to unify that with the Harmonic Convergence. Also
  12. http://digital.gamefly.co.uk/?stop_mobi=once#!/promotion/492?cid=wduk110113 Some good deals on strategy games on Gamefly. Most are for Steam. Also if you give them your email address they'll send you an extra 20% off.
  13. Seems quite heavily focused on 90's kids mind, cos you'd think more than a dozen animated films were made pre 80's.
  14. So vaguely bits of the plots from other movies.

  16. http://www.doctorwho.tv/watch-the-day-of-the-doctor Should you wish to watch at a cinema. Though our local cinema it's £10 for adults which is like ...yeah my TV is good enough thankyou.
  17. http://blog.humblebundle.com/post/65643651960/now-its-easier-to-add-games-to-your-steam-library They've upgraded the way it deals with Steam keys, now a bit more like the original method. It's had a bit of flack so they are "listening to feedback". One of the big ones is that if you've duplicate of games in the bundles, they're now poof gone instead of being able to gift them on to a friend (of which HIB seems to be taking the stance that gifting to friends isn't personal. They've already defined them as non-commercial, which is fair enough and fine for them to take a stance on, but gifting seems to be a target they've taken into account and not an unintended side effect)
  18. OMG Ethan and TCP. Look what's creeped in below...

      I might just pick up the DS4 for a potential wireless PC pad. That would be sweet. I don't see myself getting a PS4 until this time next year. Main reason is the cost and yeah, not that great of a launch window line up.

      I'M SO FUCKING EXCITED!

  19. Hah, look at all you silly people with spooky names. Don't you know it's 1st November?

  20. I never even said absolutely nobody new was building computers. I doubt you'll find the tens of millions of accounts since Steams launch, the millions of mac owners, all the folks playing the F2P TF2 and Dota 2, are all going out and building their own desktop PCs.
  21. "Man this halloween party is terrible" "Well the sign out front did say 's poopy"
