    Star Citizen: The Space Sim you've been waiting for

    I'm not sure if you're actually looking forward to this or are calling it the next Fable. Anyways, I'm thinking about kicking in $30. It certainly sounds awesome. Whether or not it can actually be delivered anywhere near as awesome as promised, though...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    That CX4 looks right up my alley, never saw it when I was looking around at guns oddly. I'd probly get it in .40 though.

    Halo 4

    Halo was destined to go downhill after the first game given Microsoft bought up Bungie and most of the founding people that made Bungie Bungie left. Still, can't tell you the number of hours of fun I've had playing split-screen multiplayer Halo 1/2/3 with my friends. It's just too bad we're all...

    Wasteland 2 gets official t-shirts and accessories

    Duh. That's what children in 3rd world countries are for. 8-)

    Wasteland 2 gets official t-shirts and accessories

    Merchandising means extra capital, for one, which can be put toward current and future projects. For another, on what planet does merchandising take time away from the people doing development on the game? Mr. Fargo might have to exchange a few emails with J!NX, but that's about it.

    Without clues, Dishonored was too difficult

    Seriously? If an NPC tells me I can't go upstairs, first thing I'm going to do is find a way to get upstairs!

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    Thanks for the info on the bullpup rifles, SuAside. I'm not sure what to think based on declaration of a "bad" trigger with, for example, the FS2000. What makes it bad? Is it not possible to alter the trigger? It seems like there aren't any good options for a reasonably priced bullpup...

    Moments: Becoming A Wasteland Warrior In Fallout 3

    I'm not sure Obsidian had any consideration for appealing to fans of Fallout 3. They had to use the same (shitty) engine, which guaranteed a similar feel on a certain level. Plus, I don't think Bethesda gave them free reign to change the core mechanics of the game (such as eliminating or heavily...

    Obsidian's Project Eternity

    I'm thinking something similar to Baldur's Gate/Icewind Dale.

    Any experts on analyzing PC data to help with my PC issues?

    I'd have to concur with other posters: the most likely culprits are either a failing hard drive or faulty memory. It could also be a damaged/faulty power supply providing bad voltage or overheating. As suggested, run Memtest. If that doesn't show an issue, remove a stick and run your system...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    Ah right, the F2000. Forgot about that one. A nice gun, but it is damned expensive, as you noted. I guess I should change the criteria to: bullpup rifle/carbine for a reasonable price. =P I suppose the PS90 could qualify, seeing as the barrel is over 16".

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    So are there any bullpup rifles on the civilian market asides from the Steyr AUG (which is probably a fine gun but I just don't like to look at it, it's ugly)? I'm a fan of the FAMAS, but that's impossible to get (outside of one or two hundred that were imported to the US forever ago and are...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    Okay, I have another question regarding opinions on trigger-actions. I was reading up on them and there seem to be some strong opinions on the subject. In particular, a lot of the 9mm handguns I'm looking at seem to be of the DA/SA type. Some people believe that having two different trigger...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    Hm, never heard of CZ before. Looks like a decent gun, but what makes it better than the FNP, Sig, or Glock? Walther looks alright, but for some reason Walthers just don't appeal to me. Also, you're talking to a noob here. I'm not sure what the practical difference(s) between hammer-fired and...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    So, on a different note... Hopefully I will soon have a bit of extra dough to blow on a handgun to go to the range with an ex-Navy friend of mine once in a while. This will be my first gun, and I'm looking to stick to probably a 9mm for cheap ammo and easy handling. The guns I've been looking...

    Are JRPG's this lousy?

    Well yeah, it was a mini-game. Obviously it would need more development to stand on its own. But isn't that what I said? Yeah, this is the mind-set I don't understand. Why does every character in fiction have to be some "deep", complex mess in order to be a good character? If you find their...

    Are JRPG's this lousy?

    I know most people hated Blitzball, but I'm with you on this. I always make sure to win that first "unwinnable" game, and did a lot of Blitzball. It could get tedious, of course, but it was a fairly simple side-game. With some development, I'd totally play a stand-alone Blitzball game over any...

    Thinking about getting a new CPU... need some help.

    The most important question is: are you having trouble running any games you want to play at acceptable resolutions/quality settings? If not, there's no sense in putting money into that particular rig. If you are, then upgrading the CPU may or may not help, depending on whether the CPU or the...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    I dunno where you're from, but assuming they don't allow full auto, they make the P90S, which is a semi-auto P90 with an extended barrel (to meet some gun law requirement or another) for civilians. I'd love to have one of those, as well as the Five-Seven pistol. The thing with those weapons...
