  1. Not really "simplification" when the three options left leave even the guys who know that AA is nothing to do with alcoholics confused on what they mean. Most PC games provide three options: Low, Mid, High. Which Crysis 2 could of done. And a fair chunk of PC games then offer the more granular control for those who know what they're doing and want to dig in. Normally hidden behind a "Advanced" button. The engine supports it, it was in the first game. Just really weird to gut it and even to disable console access to fiddle with it in there. (which once again: why would you do that. Those who don't use console tend not to know of it, those who want to use console tend to know what they're doing. There was no harm having it turned on by default.) These guys have been making PC games for a decade, you'd think they'd know what little details to leave in/keep turned on.
  2. 50 Unexplainable Black & White Photos
  3. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_Alternative_Vote_referendum,_2011 I'm assuming most of you have gotten the poll card for this? Thoughts? I'm for it, but I don't know too much on it so maybe someone might provide reasons for sticking with the current "first past the post" system. Certainly allows for much more granular method.
  4. My main issue would be they've hardly covered the SP campaign at all. I don't know if it's cos the robots have more marketability, or if they want to keep it mostly secret or what. It just makes me a tad nervous on what to expect.
  5. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyduSUyIChA And in English.
  6. I used to share with my sister when she got started, but now she has her own copy of portal so she doesn't need my account, and I've beaten PvZ and ended up porting Abe's Odyssey to my PSP, so I don't really need her account any more now either. Steam Gaurd throws a spanner in the works now anyway.
  7. It's not "replayability" just games you've played 5 times or more. Well yeh, but what is a game you've played 5 times if not replayable? I'm just getting at the fact it's not a "pick one game only" for this one. Unless that's the only game you've ever played multiple times of course. @Hotchops: It just makes it shitloads easier to define it to campaign/story mode only than including multi-player, cos you can play through 5 MP matches in an hour.

  9. Nah, Sleep is standby, so still "on" to a degree. So yeah, power (though a lot less than normal) would of still been passing through the laptop.
  10. No radiator? If it was off at the time it shouldn't of caused much issue (as long as you dried it before turning it back on). But if it was on and wet, then it's possible it's fried.

    Monitors!

    Use the savings to get a bigger desk? How small we talking?
  12. I'll update it later. But it's amusing none the less
  13. Wow, it's his Well Played thing as well. He doesn't write that for kotaku, that gets put in newspapers. (which is why they're sometimes a repeat of older stories of the past week, he just polishes his older posts up)
  14. You put in on a radiator for half an hour or so to make sure it's dried out? If not, yeah might need to go to a repair shop.
  15. Cos if we used Multiplayer matches into counting for "games you've played more than 5 times" then the list for many of us will probably get considerably longer.
  16. You know considering RPG's tend to be dozens of hours long, and FPS games considerably less than that, is it just the make-up of forum members or is there something weird going on for us mostly having RPG's in our "played multiple times"
  17. I carry on heading to PC for Multi-plat titles way too often recently. Anyway via PC Gamer: http://forums.steamp...d.php?t=1807934 A tidy little tool for changing your graphic settings. Thank PC gaming n the PC Community for allowing us to make up for the short comings of devs.
  18. Its the "fair amount of rules are lax" part of the forum. Post spamming n NSFW stuff are the main things that come under that. Also we're getting a tad off-topic here.
  19. Final Fantasy IX, Final Fantasy X, Crash Bandicoot, Pokemon TCG. Defense Grid, Though I wish I shouldn't have to. Stupid lack of Steam Cloud. There's plenty of campaign-less games I've played through many times like Civ IV, Sins, Caesar 3, etc.
  20. Well that's what it is. And if folks were butthurt enough over losing some of their post count, what you call it won't really make much of a difference.
  21. Top one is bigger because 4:3 like on old DS would be horrible for watching films on, and you can't make the bottom one 16:9 to match or it'd cover the controls/you'd have to scrap controls/make the 3DS a lot wider
  22. A tsunami warning has been issued in Japan.
