  1. I know there's no "offline" mode, I know it runs a bunch of the game on it's own servers. Welcome to the discussion we've being having already. Blizzard banning people from their entire game because of potential MP exploits is the fucking stupid and retarded culmination of that. Skirmish mode n campaign mode is literally the same mode you play as in multiplayer and co-op...just you do it on your own and you don't get your game that you paid £45 for taken away from you if you decide to cut corners in it. I won't be too surprised to see Blizzard in court at some point in the near future. You can't take someones legally purchased product away from them because they cheated in a video game.

    Wii U

    Yeah Starcraft is fine. It's not a problem with the game, it's a problem with Nintendo. Sure they're ahead of the pack in creating 1001 controllers for your console, but they're way behind in letting you play with someone more than a few feet from you. I don't get why while developing the Wii U they've not rectified that? Do they honestly believe online is something not worth bothering with in this day n age still? I stand behind my reckoning that they won't see 9th gen.
  3. Mobile pooped out earlier, so this is a bit late: @Ethan: You not use Rosebud cheat in Sims? Infinite cash, great if you don't want to go through the bother of the early stages of raising them up and just want to build a pretty house. @FDS: Did you not feel some braincells die saying that? That it's gotten to a point of silliness that folks can be saying the phrase "multiplayer mode you play by yourself". That's normally just called "single player", and folks don't get banned from singleplayer. Multiplayer, as Ethan said, fine, ban em, throw em together etc. But if people "cheat" on singleplayer that's their own doing. Heck if they cheat on MP jsut lock folks from MP. You charge £45 for a game you sure as hell aren't banning people from playing it.
  4. Im pretty sure TOS' have restrictions to what the company sold you the game can do. As for cheating in my book it's always been fine n dandy if you want to do it, you're only cheating yourself. I know id be one pissed kid if i typed on rosebud n the game up n deleted itself with anything else id bought at the time.
  5. Sweet. I signed up for Clubcard ages back, not looked at it and might be able to treat us to a bunch of days out over summer.

  6. From what I've read that is concept-Toph, before they settled on a small blind girl that senses through her feet.
  7. Being watching it with the wee ones. The first two episodes really do go a bit slow n off the mark compared to the later episodes. Bit slow moving and a bit grim. Debating showing them Ember Island Players, spoilers sure but gives a bit of a "how it get's to be later on". That and Toph-less TLA kinda sucks
  8. Click the magnifying glass in the corner, takes you to a tab with just that image on. Can do anything you want from there.
  9. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2012/06/blizzard-getting-ready-to-ban-diablo-iii-cheaters/ This won't backfire at all. "Hey you used Rosebud, you're not playing your purchased game ever again!"
  10. click on the thumbnail in the album, it pops up a viewer much like on PXOD, you can right click the image from there n save it.

    Oh yeah Falklands are voting on their sovereignty too.
  12. Right click - Save as. Same as any other image on the web.
  13. It's funny that of all the denominations to moan about sanctity of marriage it's Church of England. The one made so Henry VIII could get a divorce.
  14. So John Major today at the Levenson Enquiry put Murdoch in the stink by saying how Murdoch has asked Majors' gov't to change stance on Europe or lose support of his papers. (You can guess the response given Blair came into power on the next election) Murdoch had previously denied making any requests of prime ministers. Oh n CofE are going all defensive with the gay marriage thing. "Oh it'll change the defintion of marriage. Make it holllow" all that bullcrap.

    http://store.artlebedev.com/electronics/optimus-popularis/ Shame on the general layout of it, especially the arrow keys in the bottom, such an odd placement.

    Sim City V

    The new trailer n talk from E3
  18. Yeah, seems naval combat is likely replacing that. I didn't really expect it, that's from the old AC2 engine, and AC3 was started on since AC2 not since Brotherhood, so older ideas most likely won't have been incorporated.
  19. http://imgur.com/a/ItaUQ#0 Black Mesa dudes are ramping up to a release now.
  20. Me a year back: "I'm feet from my router n hooked up with ethernet. My mum has a shitty wi-fi dongle, I know I'll replace it with my spare Wi-fi card!" Me now "I'm on a different floor from the router, I wish there was a spare wi-fi card"

      Is your mom gonna be okay with you running it through the halls or drilling through the walls?

      My wires are all over the place too. I'm getting a vacation soon I'm hoping to sort them out then.

       

      Also thinking of getting wireless everything. Like HDMI and wireless adapters for the speakers.

  21. Final Fantasy X from last week. Only just in Besaid mind, had other stuff to do. Might not be PC gaming for foreseeable future which kinda sucks I'll figure something out I guess.
  22. Well no, just asking what good games there are on the Gameboy Color. The piracy rule is no explaining how to do it, and linking to places of that nature though discussion is fine. Mainly because this is a US based site, and there's weird thinkings on piracy there where just linking to a place that offers pirated content is as good as offering up and creating the pirated content yourself. And with stuff like ACTA n SOPA n PIPA floating around it's better safe than sorry. Same reason I'm trying to work out if the EU cookie law applies to this place or not.
  23. Oooh. I'd seen the second picture, didn't know it was replicating an older one.
