Re: What old game would you like to see remade?

Posted on 2015-08-04, 20:53

Stunts / 4D Sports Driving You may want to try one of the TrackMania games, personally I think they surpass Stunts if I put aside my nostalgia. :) Try Nitronic Rush and/or Distance, muuuch better than Trackmania :) I saw Distance on STEAM and have kept my eye on it. I won't bother with any game in …

Stunts / 4D Sports Driving You may want to try one of the TrackMania games, personally I think they surpass Stunts if I put aside my nostalgia. :) Have been a huge fan of Trackmania since the ESWC 2005 freebie that they put out online for free. Now own them all (apart from TM2) and yeah they are …

Re: There is no successor to Warcraft II

Posted on 2015-08-04, 20:46

I honestly don't understand the beef people are having with Starcraft II. Here we have a total pureblood RTS game, looking as good as it possibly could and being mechanically perfect to it's intended mould. The single player campaign is HUGE, is replayable (indeed you HAVE to replay it numerous …

Re: What machines did you use in High School?

Posted on 2015-08-04, 20:32

I believe the newly constructed computer room had a full deck of RM Nimbus 386-SX based PC's which took around 11 minutes to boot up, and Mr Harston (one of the mathematics teachers) ran the class. It was for year 10's and onwards though, and by the time I hit year 10 they had been replaced by 486- …

Re: what are your favourite ps/2 mice?

Posted on 2015-07-26, 13:02

1.jpg 2.jpg I see some people like the MX310, but I prefered the MX300. Had a few of these back in the day and they were just amazing mice. They never stopped working either, I think I killed one with beer and the other was "borrowed" by a friend so I eventually had to get the MX518, which I …

Re: What game are you playing now?

Posted on 2015-07-26, 12:52

Just finished another playthrough of Warcraft III - bought the legit edition through BattleNet because I couldn't get the official patches to work on either of my two original copies in Windows 7 64bit. About to purchase The Frozen Throne and work through that next. Other titles I've played in the …

Re: What is your age?

I am 34, single with two daughters. Dodged a bullet getting out of a bad relationship, kept the clouds silver lining though! Probably buy one of those beautiful Russian Wives, when I get the money (and the spare time).

Desert Island Games

Posted on 2015-07-03, 19:35

If you could only play three games for the rest of your life, stranded on a desert island all alone, what would they be? Any system, any year... what are the three games you would choose above all others? XD I'll go first... 1) System Shock II - PC (1999) 2) Deus Ex - PC (2000) 3) Morrowind - PC ( …

Re: Building High-End PC 2004

Posted on 2015-04-06, 23:34

Yeah that 3700 will struggle to keep legs with SLI 7900GT's. Will be a very fast machine, but much overkill for 2004. I can see how big the gap is between 2003-2005. I mean COD 2 needs a very fast card to run in max, even the 6800GT cannot run COD2 in DirectX 9 mode with smooth FPS, but only a year …

Re: WinQuake, a forgotten gem

Posted on 2015-04-01, 02:38

There is something about WinQuake that is so pure. Of course DOS mode on a fast socket 7 system is the most pure, but WinQuake retains the original visceral feeling to the combat and the insane pace. GLQuake (especially the early incarnations), while jaw dropping back in the VooDoo days, was just …

Re: List the PC games that you have beaten

Posted on 2015-04-01, 02:27

Latest game I beat was Wolfenstein : The New Order. I finished it a few months ago on regular difficulty, and it wasn't until late into the game I realised there was a Perk List of things to unlock... DOH. So I started it again last week on Uber difficulty (did some recording with Shadowplay to test …
