Re: Most disappointing games?

I know you all are going to shoot me but I HATE all the Dark souls games. They control poorly and simply require a bunch of replay and memorization, terrible gameplay traits. I've tried to play several of these games a few times always thinking I must be missing something and each time I come away …

You know a lot of crap was made in those days too, we just tend to remember the good stuff. I remember watching a lot of Hitchcock movies but honestly I found a lot of his earlier work stiff and wooden. Gone with the winds? The rope? Citizen Kane? No thanks! Sure there is good old movies but there …
Re: Members of Vogons, what shows do you currently watch?

Mostly watch documentaries, educational and hobby stuff on the internet. Since the first few seasons of Spongebob there hasn't been anything worthwhile on tv anyway.

With the energy prices rising, mining crypto's isn't profitable so I expect a lot of hardly used mining gpu's come onto the market in the near future. This way I got my RX 570 during the last crypto bear. As for the really new stuff, I don't expect prices and availability to drop significantly as …

Might want to check out Brigador though it's more mech based but it also has hovertanks and flying vehicles. Will give this some more thought to see if I can think of more, I've always liked playing the demo of Fire Fight.
Re: Why is YouTube decreasing video resolutions?
Posted on 2022-01-11, 18:02
All I know is that when I upload videos to YT they're always compressed to hell so I stopped uploading. I don't think it's your provider as they don't meddle with that sort of thing. The reason why the 8K video isn't available anymore is probably because YT's algorithm decided the popularity of that …

The voices from Beyond Castle Wolfenstein. Sometimes a gestapo officer would come in loudly to arrest you, which would have the 9 or 10 year old me sticking to the ceiling from scaredness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5YuhTr79F8

I repaired a lot of bad PS2 dvd's with Brasso with mostly good results. The process is to have a flat surface to put the cd/dvd on, have a fine clean cotton cloth and dampen it with a bit of water, shake the bottle of Brasso, put a little bit but not too squeemish and start rubbing, add a bit of …

Re: What phone do you use currently?
Posted on 2021-11-08, 15:26
Galaxy A3 (2017), because it was one of the smaller smartphones. Apart from the navigation and music play function I hardly use/need it, for normal computing funtions and internet it's pretty useless as touchscreens is the singlemost godawful invention after touchpads.

I'm making this guide partly so when I want to play this in the future I don't need to re-invent the wheel so to speak but probably by that time this information will be obsolete because of updated software. There is also a slight chance other people will want to play this game and I also want to …

I'm coming back to this thread as I had a lot of issues with it but I've got most of it solved (sort of). First of all the Step 1 SCGT patch doesn't seem to work for me as good as opposed to the 1.551 patch. Second, when exiting a session in quickrace (chosen from the first menu when you start the …
