    Halo beta!!!

    I'm gonna wait because there is nothing new in this version apart from the two multiplayer levels and the flamethrower. The whole single player game is identical in every way.

     

    I will maybe wait 6 months and then I will buy it because there should be some cool multiplayer mods coming out by then :lol:

    I agree the queues can get abysmal but if you can get there in the morning (GMT) then its usually quiet.

    That's what I do.

     

    I usually wait till a quite time and open 8 or so windows at the same time. Then I let them all count down together and use a download manager to download them.

    I'm getting the Xbox version on import since I can't be bothered waiting. The reason I choose the Xbox version over Gamecube is that Link doesn't seem to fit into the game as much as Spawn, slightly better graphics, dolby 5.1 and I don't like using the GC pad for fighters.

    100 quid for a graphics card.

    The best sub 100 card is

    MSI FX5200 TD128

    it can cope with DX9 up to a resolution of 1280x1024 and absolutely kicks the equivalent Radeons butt (it has equal performance to Ti 4800). Finally the best part is the price only 62 of your finest English quids.

    Im aving one as soon as I got the spare wad

     

    Just in case you cant find it, others that are close are

    Leadtek A340TDH

    £76

    Chaintek AG8X2

    £91

     

    Info comes courtesy of this months PCFormat

    That FX 5200 card was the exact card I was going to come in here and recommend. I just got it and it's great value for the money. It should also be decent enough to cope with Doom III and Half Life 2 at reasonable graphics settings :lol:

    I don't like the idea of a draught but thats only because in the right circumstance I believe I would volunteer anyway.

     

    I would not go in fight in a conflict which Britain created (eg Iraq) but if someone invaded my country then I wouldn't hesitate to fight.

    Aliens?

    lol someboddy. That pic is horrible! kill it!! KILL IT!!!!

     

    I think there is obviously alien life out there. The universe is so huge and we would be narrow minded to think we are the only life out there. If we are the pinacle of "intelligent" life then the universe is a bit of a let down lol

    Welcome back mate.

     

    I know what it's like when the real world gets in the way of the internet heh. I've been really busy lately myself.

     

    PS Battle of Britain in the chamopions league. Man Utd will probably spank Rangers (even though they can't beat the saints) but they will be two excellent games!

    Half life 2 and halo on PC.

    I couldn't really care less about Halo, at least not until some mods come out for it. I've been playing multiplayer online halo on Xbox for months now and im a bit bored of it (roll on Halo 2!)

     

    I have just bought a new video card in preparation for HL2. It is easily the most stunning game I have ever seen. I also can't wait to get scared to death by some Doom III.

     

    I have to say though that I'm most looking forward to Deus Ex: Invisible War. Oh yes! If you haven't played the original Deus Ex then you have missed out on one of the best games ever.

    Game related Injuries

    Have you ever suffered a game related injury?

     

    This might have been done before, I can't remember. Anyway, 2 days ago I suffered a game related injury. I was playing timesplitters 2 GC with two of my flatmates and I was winning by a big margain. Now I was being cheap (I was the monkey character and if you have played you will know why that is being cheap :P ) and my friend was really annoyed because I kept fragging him. Anyway to cut the story short I said something to put him off and he got so annoyed that he went to threw the controller onto the big cushion that was right next to me. Suffice to say he aims like an American missile so he managed to throw it right into my groin. It was so painful! but I did probably deserve it.

     

    So has anyone else suffered something similar or even worse? Please tell :lol:

    Fanboys

    in Gossip Café [/offtopic]

    Posted

    Ok considering this is an emulation site I would guess the number of fanboys of the next gen consoles to be low. I am a Dreamcast fanboy and probably a bit of a Sega and Nintendo one too. I don't however take it as a personal insult when someone says "xxxx Nintendo/Sega game/console is rubbish", even if I happen to think it is one of the best games/consoles ever.

     

    I make this topic because I have finally stopped posting on gamefaqs. I really can't stand it there anymore. No matter where you post in any topic, you always get some spotty immature fanboy coming in and saying how much your console SUCKS and his RULES. Why would anyone care!?

     

    I'm in the lucky position where I have a well paid job and I can buy all the consoles and all the exclusive games so maybe thats why I don't particularly understand it but I think it's really funny/disturbing how fans of consoles put themselves into little tribes and have thier verbal wars. I know this is nothing new but it does seem to be worse than ever because gaming is so mainstream now.

     

    Anyway to end this rant I ask you all if you are fanboys and if so you can give your reasons why :P
