    What's your HTPC Software of choice?

    XBMC here. Except I'm still attempting to figure out how to get info about the movies, posters, etc. It's tough to set up but it's just so goddamn beautiful when it's finished.

    Empire: Total War

    I love it so much. I'm in the 1740's now. I'm Russia. I have all of Russia's starting cities, Ingria, Coppenhagen, Stockholm, Yerevan, Tiblisi, Anatolia, Constantinople/Istanbul, Sofia, Athens, the place west of Athens on the same island type thingy, Cairo, Jerusalem, Baghdad, Persia's capital...

    Got kicked from TF2 server for being good I Guess?

    Does that seriously happen to you that often that it warrants you to stay away from two great games (I've only played TF2, I still do, never played L4D, going by reviews)? Then you are really missing out. You have to have a better reason not to play TF2. Anyways that sucks that happened to you...

    Windows XP partition problem

    I downloaded Windows 7, and I know that I have to partition one of my harddrives. But all of my harddrives are already partitioned. I have a C: and a D: but I can't partition them. When I right click on them in Disc Management (the app that comes with XP) the only options I get are explore and...

    The WoW Generation

    Yeah I mean when I talk on TF2, they definitely know its a teenager (15), not some 40 year old. These kids just need to find other kids the same age that they connect to. Not some fellow WoW addicts that grow up to be socially awkward because of the little social experience they have outside of...

    Empire: Total War

    I know, it just seems that in M2TW there were a lot more unique units. And well it kind of is guns and cavalry, but pikemen are still important. And I think Empire makes you think a lot more because of the possibility of a cannon destroying a whole unit.

    Empire: Total War

    Anyone else having a hard time finding a faction you can stick with? I don't like GB, France, and United Provinces because they have colonies, and its a pain in the ass dealing with them. Sweden doesn't have like any unique units, Austria's starting position sucks but they have cool units...

    Xbox 360 has ruined pc gaming forever

    So now that a good game series is on consoles I shouldn't try/play it? And I've heard that Race Pro is a good race sim (maybe not the best reviews but from user impressions). You guys act like the 360 is killing you. Relax. Why not go where the good games are and stop bitching about how the 360...

    Empire: Total War

    The demo isn't that good. The load times are horrendous, not a good unit selection, etc. but my God, the full game is amazing. Its exactly what I've been hoping for for over two years!

    Xbox 360 has ruined pc gaming forever

    "This is not a troll thread." You can't say that x console ruined PC gaming and not sound trollish. Anyways what do you expect? There is money in the 360, why wouldn't developers make games for it, and of course publishers just make them port it to 360, for money. You act as if PC gaming is...

    What is your game of the year? Poll

    I'm playing through Fallout 3 on my 360 (building my PC atm). I'm only 10 hours in, but I am loving it! GTA IV was also great.

    I took pictures of the parts, but my C5280 (printer) won't recognize the SD card. I'll get a new one, and I'll take a picture of the whole PC.

    Sudden RTS craving

    Another suggestion of the Total War series. Get Rome: Total War and Medieval 2: Total War. And there are a loads of mods for it :D And, I'm assuming that you like Lord of the Rings, so for Medieval 2 Total War there is a LOTR mod called "Third Age: Total War." It comes out in late January/early...

    Which game to get?

    I really want to play L4D, and this is even more incentive to play it. I can't wait to actually play with a team (where I don't have to assemble my friends) that actually uses teamwork, going to be loads of fun :D

    Thanks, and I have its just there have been some specific problems with the EP45-UD3R (2GB sticks not working, using smaller sticks then upping the voltage, etc.) Thanks, but for what about the SATA cable? Does it have to be plugged in for my system to post?

    Which game to get?

    Gears is okay. SP is a good for like a day, but its super short. I don't like Gears' MP other than Horde mode, but that doesn't last that long. PoP gets repetitive, but its really fun if you don't get tired of doing the same thing. Mirror's Edge I've heard is super short. I would rent them, and...

    2009, a stomper year for gaming?

    No lol, its a PS3 PSN game. It looks pretty interesting. I think one team has to get the fat princess to a place, while the other team tries to stop them.

    2009, a stomper year for gaming?

    Empire Total War is all I need. I'm going to be playing that until CA releases their next game, and still after that lol. That will be my most played game, and I am really looking forward to SF IV, KZ2 (even tho I don't have a PS3), Heavy Rain, COD6 (I love every COD game), FIFA '10, and Just...

    Yeah I just put the default one in there :P. And TBH, I kinda like this monitor's res, and it has to do with size. I don't have a lot of space on this desk. And I want to be able to keep this thing for like 3 years, and be able to run most games (mostly the Total War games, willing to turn down...

    Okay I have about an $1100 budget. This computer will be used for gaming, surfing the internet, some photoshopping, watching videos, etc. I need to be able to store a lot of stuff so thats why I have a 1 TB HDD, so here it goes. My monitor's native res is 1152 x 864. I want to be able to burn...

    what quad do i get

    I would go with the Q6600 for the exact reasons you just said. And browsing the web while playing around in CS3 will greatly benefit from the Quad core.

    Laptop vs Desktop

    . You would be looking at $1500 + for a laptop that could run 3dmax super smoothly. Build a kick arse dekstop, and like Mr. Wolf said, get an ultraportable.

    Stalker Clear Sky Specs..wow

    Now is the time for me to finally get my new PC! Looks like my 5600XT won't be able to handle it, but then again, only games I play with it are Medieval 2 Total War and Medieval 2 Total War: Kingdoms.

    BF: Bad Company

    I like BF:BC. The singleplayer is much better than I expected, and the MP is good, when I can connect. I can't get into any games atm, it just says "Searching for games."

    Would you be interested in a "[H]ard" energy drink?

    I don't drink energy drinks but I'd probably just buy one, empty it and just keep the can. But there are a ton of Red Bull clones so I think its pretty hard to get into the market.
