  1. Anyone here watching/ has watched Continuum? It's about that future cop and the 8 terrorists who time traveled to the past. Don't worry that wasn't a spoiler. That was the premise of the show. Anyway, I really like it. I don't really care about good acting/bad acting (unless it's really really terrible) so I won't comment about that. It's pretty interesting. You guys who participate in the politics thread might like it. It's very interesting (hmm I already said that), I don't know if I should root for the cop or the terrorists. No spoilers though please as I'm only on the 3rd episode.
  2. You should get an honorary title for trying out all these Vita games for us, Strangelove!
  3. I think I recall it does work without internet connection, so blocking the app via firewall could work.
  4. Saint's Row, Bitches!!!

      I thought you were looking forward to Darksiders 2.

      I haven't even touched the first game! I am looking forward to Borderlands 2 though.

  5. So I called up my ISP, and I explained whats happening... They asked me to go through the standard network troubleshooting steps everyone asks you to do. Restart the modem etc... And it worked. So now everything's OK! But I did that myself yesterday.... Countless times...
  6. Thanks for the input! Can they do that from their side though? Because it was working fine the day before and it wasn't serviced or anything... Both of my routers are D-link ones running ddwrt. I guess that should take care of one possible suggestion... though I don't have one with stock firmware but I don't think it makes a difference. I'm gonna give it another go later... I'll try googling the restriction thing through modems maybe it'll help... Also I guess it's worth mentioning... The first time this was installed, it wouldn't work with the router too. But I just cloned the MAC address of my laptop (the only computer I had at the time and the one they used to configure the modem) and it worked fine. I assumed they were restricting through MAC addresses. But I've kept that setting since then, maybe they did do something...
  7. I did the factory reset. It still won't work I used my Old Router, it still works I just replaced it with a new one since it doesn't support wireless N. But it's the same situation. It sees the Modem and I can see my IP address, but it still won't work. I also cloned the MAC address of my PC to my router. Still no good. Google doesn't help too... hmm... Is it even possible to restrict a modem to only connect to a PC? I wonder what the hell is going on...
  8. I don't have internet! Well... through the router anyway. I reset it and everything. It works right now when I'm connected to my Modem directly... I don't understand why it's not working when I'm connected to the router... I can see my WAN IP from the router. It's there. If I plug my PC directly to the modem it works. NOOOO! But any suggestions? I don't think this is an ISP issue. It's just my router... which suddenly decided to stop giving me internet...
  9. I had the same issue when it just wouldn't turn on. It was a problem with my PSU, there wasn't enough power I'm thinking. It was one of the generic ones. What I had to do was unplug a component (DVD Drive, Video Card) then boot, then put them back in then boot. I don't know why that works but I always just had to remove a component (that draws power) and then put them back in. Once I got a new (well now old, but still being used) one, I never got the problem again. But it was soooo frustrating before. Didn't have any other computer at that time so I was cut off from the 'net!
  10. I did a quick google and it doesn't seem to have any virus/trojans. However, I did find a blog post from 2011 where the author warns about installing MotionInJoy, and in the comments a situation not unlike yours (turns off windows firewall, etc...) I just uninstalled it cause I'm impatient! But the interface does seem dodgy with ads plastered all over it. Now you really need a 360 pad! Also, welcome to the Controller thread everyone!
  11. I have the same issue but apparently it's a conflict with the Razer Nostromo driver. I disabled the Nostromo in Device Manager and it started to work fine. I imagine there's some sort of driver conflict in yours too? @Dean yeah MotioninJoy, you had to disable something in windows to bypass the driver signing check, but that's fixed now (last I tried for most bluetooth adapters/dongles). Also, and I admit it's just me being impatient, whenever I have to match the thing to my bluetooth I have to plug in the USB, then pair, then disconnect the USB. I had to do that everytime it died so one day I just went out and bought the wifi adapter for the 360 controller. Now I just turn on the controller and its paired and ready to go!

    Apple

    That's nice to know! Definitely would do some research on how to avoid that... However, I think I'm giving up reading comments on Apple related articles. For some reason, Android related articles don't have it this bad. Or maybe that's because I just don't read a lot of android articles...

    Apple

    That's what I thought. I didn't think it was just the rectangle with buttons. I thought it was that, the packaging, design of the interface (probably the icons, which IMO is a copy). But I'm not sure. I guess I'll go figure out what exactly they're suing for. That's not even the SIII.

    Apple

    Just browsing around and saw this... how true is this? http://www.reddit.com/tb/kr14a
  15. You know you can subscribe to "youtube shows" instead of users? And those subs don't show up on "subscriptions" in the youtube app, at least in ios and the xbmc addon. Anyone know why that is? I can't seem to find info about it...

      You know how you can subsc.....*

       

      The vids do show up under "new videos" but they don't have a specific item/section on the "subscriptions" page on the app.

      Huh, if you don't show up in subscriber lists it may be worthwhile... I stopped subscribing to stuff when I'd get weekly spam via every channel I subbed from people crawling subscriber lists.

  16. Thanks for the warning there on windows phone 8! I'm going to hold off anyway until they release the next iPhone. If I'm sold on their upgrades I'm probably going to get that, but right now I'm seriously thinking of moving to windows phone. The lack of apps, I'm aware of, but then I don't use that many apps on my phone now anyway, and I have another iOS device I can use for those apps I may want to try, so I guess that's not really much of a problem for me too. The biggest issue for me I guess is music, since my Library is on iTunes, and it sync wonderfully to my phone, obviously, and I keep tabs on play counts. But then again, my friend has a Lumia (800 I think, it's not the 900) and I got to play with it a bit, and I really liked how it look and felt.
  17. Oh I see... But where was this Leviathan before? I don't think I've come across it...?
  18. Like if you don't understand what FDS was saying! I've been pondering this the whole day, thinking "what could he have meant by that?". Much as I try, I could not figure out what it was you were trying to convey with your message. For instance, what does it mean when you say something like "when it leaks"? And by "finally play this" are you referring to playing Mass Effect 3, the game, or just this DLC? What could be the "most interesting things" about the series? Why did Vargras link you to the wiki? I wonder what meaning he got out of your post. Why does TheMightyEthan think that you are pirating it? Are you pirating it? Say NO to piracy!
  19. I'm thinking of switching to a Windows Phone. I have an iPhone 4 right now but for months now all the things I'm using it for (aside from regular smartphone stuff like calls texts and emails) is Instapaper, the Music app, and rdio. Also as an alarm clock. I checked and these apps are on the windows phone. And because I have an iPad now (Woohoo!) I can still use all of my previous apps on iOS on a current device I own. While technically I could still use my apps on the iPhone I already have, it's a bother to have to charge that phone for doing non-phone stuff. However, I have no idea on where to start. Any suggestions on which model I should check out?
  20. Just putting this out there... anyone interested in getting the Borderlands 2 4-pack? I can't buy it though, because I don't know how you guys would pay me if I'm the one buying it. So I was thinking I'd join in if anyone was planning to do it.

      If possible, someone from the UK should go in on it/make the first payment. It's substantially cheaper there than in anywhere else in Europe.

       

      Also, I'm in.

      It looks fun but I never buy games on launch.

      Coolio. It's still more than a month off though. We'll pick this up again when we get closer to the release date.

    Your Rig

    My new rig as of 7/19. Wanted to upgrade it since December of last year, but I was too lazy since I could manage with my laptop ASUS P8Z77-M ... Intel Core i5-3550 @ 3.30 GHz ... G.SKILL Ripjaws series 8gb (2 x 4gb) ... ASUS GTX 560Ti DirectCU II ... 1 TB Seagate hard drive, because only games will be occupying this space. I have lots of external drives I don't know what to do with them... Power supply is my 4 year old HX620 Corsair. Modular is cool! ... And it's housed in my also 4 year old Antec 902 ... And of course, an awful picture of the thing, it's sitting on a temp steel stand (you can't see it) with a cardboard (you can see it!) This is the first time I picked the components. I always had my brother look up stuff for me. I think I did the right thing in getting the i5 instead of the original plan of i7-3770 (or i7-2600k). The board is whatever the PC guy suggested I get because I really have no idea about the motherboard. I just told them as long as it fits my video card I'm probably fine with it!

    Ouya

    Ok. So here comes the Squeenix ports http://www.joystiq.com/2012/07/31/final-fantasy-3-joining-ouya-launch-lineup/ Now one of the games in that survey is a reality.
  23. So XBMC was the solution to my "PC as a console" problem last week. Got it configured with Advanced Launcher, and saw a cool 360 blades skin too! http://db.tt/tkqzVZbg

      NXE was better than the blades. The current one /looks/ nicer but because of the adds/stupid category decisions it's a PITA to use.

      I think the blades are cool. Better than the rest of the 360 interfaces. That is all.

       

      Probably... Can I hook up my videos to Steam? Because then I'd be losing half of what I can do now so probably not... But I'm sure to give that one a try.

  24. Yup they are. Just found out about witcher nexus. They have a nexus for everything! Screens for the comfycouch+font thingie: Here they are in the nexus: Comfy Couch: http://witcher.nexusmods.com/mods/272/ Dynamic HUD (screens in the link): http://witcher.nexusmods.com/mods/276
