This isn't what you think it is. I am not going to tell you why WoW is so great. Instead, I am going to tell you why such a great game is hated by so many people, including myself recently.
Now, I am an intelligent, eloquent person who can express myself in writing better than most. Most...
So I got a $100 gift card for christmas to CC and ended up getting the momo wheel for PC. I love it so far, but only have a few games to use with it. I have LFS, TOCA 3, Flatout 2, and Trackmania United. Of those I think TOCA 3 makes the best use of the wheel by far, the force feedback feels...
Just bought a new laptop, has vista on it, my first experience with it. After tweaking it the way I want it the only difference I see between it and the XP Pro running on my gaming rig is that it has much better memory management. Recently used programs are obviously being cached in ram because...
This is awesome, you can get your specific character from WoW including all the gear you are wearing turned into a custom hand painted statue

So I just got a job writing embedded C and ASM code for a Texas Instruments DSP chip. The project we are working on now will be a fiber line testing tool. Basically, you hook it up to a fiber optic cable, it sends out laser light through the cable and times how long it takes to get a signal back...
This was purchased on the day of release. I love this system but it has come down to keeping it or keeping my cable internet... I plan on repurchasing this as soon as I get paid again (don't ask).

This would make nintendo a killing if they made it. I would never put my DS down again. With WiFi and everything, OMG it has to be done, lets start a petition! :D

227.24 mil total profit
360:
$125 loss per unit

Look at the nice present that the DiRT demo left for me... I keep a close eye on my system and I guarantee it was not here before I installed the demo, should have known...
can anyone tell me where to find a description of the database file format used by MySQL, I looked on their site and the link I found to the documentation didn't work. I need to be able to load up a database file in my own program and manipulate it.
Okay, so I loop through a file like this:
while(file->good()) {...}
good() returns true if none of the ifstreams error flags are set. Now, assume that that loop is inside a larger loop so that I am reading the entire file multiple times in succession. First I would obviously have to set the...
I am trying to reposition a password field inside my JFrame using the method setBounds but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. Here is the code, I am completely new to this stuff so I have no idea if the order of any of this matters or what...

So i got this game today and I have tried the first mission 6 or 7 times and die every rime. First I had it on stalker difficulty but then changed it to novice. I will unload clip after clip of ammunition all seemingly accurately and I have not yet killed anyone. I don't understand the problem...
I want to try this game but the only way you can play now is to be referred to it by someone who is already playing it. So, is anyone willing to send me a referral? I am not sure what you need so let me know what you need and Ill PM it to you.
With this being my last semester of school I am completely swamped with work. I have one class where the guy expects 350 hours of outside of class work put into this software engineering project, and another class where I have to design and implement a non-trivial, commercially viable software...
I should know this by now but I don't. I have a set a functions and structures I use in every program I write. I have this in a header file called "MyD3D.h" and its implementation in a file called "MyD3D.cpp". Now, I want the implementation file hidden from anyone who wants to use my library. I...
As many already may know, this game is amazing. Last night I did the entire "Arbiter's Grounds" dungeon and got into the real story line. Up until last night I thought the game was good, but a bit shy of all the hype. After you finish the first three "intro" dungeons the game really starts to...
I can't freakin catch anything, I heard the woman that gives it to you mention bait but can't find any bait and I have tried for like a half hour without catching anything lol. I am standing on the dock near where the cat is.
My girlfriend just got back from our local walmart (she picked up children of mana DS for me) and she told me that she talked to a manager there about the PS3. She said that she flirted with him a little and got him to say more than he was going to at first, but basically here are the things you...
I started playing this again, downloaded a bunch of mods for it that should make it worth replaying. I am playing an all out magic character this time, she is a witch, a sexy witch!

I just finished reading a certain thread where someone discussed camping for over 2 days to get a PS3. I am planning on doing this but I think 2 days is a little bit ridiculous. I mean, you are going to be sitting there in a non-existant line while the store is open and people are coming and...
I post a poll , it had a legitimate reason, it gets locked. Even if it didn't seem to have a point who cares its genmay and I paid to be here. Then, I post an explanation in an attempt to get the poll back open because it was kind of important and it gets locked in 3 minutes. :rolleyes: The...

I just got a new home theater system and want to put it to the test with various forms of audio. I have already watched Dolby Digital and DTS:ES movies as well as DVD-Audio and they sound amazing, but I don't have any games that support 7.1 surround sound. I just bought a digital optical cable...
If anyone wants to try WoW for free for 10 days let me know, I have 5 trial giveaways. You do need a credit card number but the card is not charged and will not be charged at the end of the trial, I know I did it myself.
This game has to be one of the best arcade racers ever made. I loved the first one but this game is so much better. Music, sound effects, graphics, gameplay... all 10/10. I can't think of anything they could have done to make it better. GO BUY IT! :cool:

This is a must for anyone that works in front of a computer all day. Its a free collection of 60 desktop toys that all interact with each other with realistic physics. You can make things like chain reactions (think dominoes) or perpetual motion machines. You can build castles and shoot things...
I know this has been out for a while but I thought I'd check it out so I got it today for cheap. It's pretty much terrible. It's kind of like dating a hot blonde with an IQ of 12, a lot of fun to look at but don't try doing anything with it. The handling is so terrible its basically crippling to...
Lets put this to rest once and for all. No arguing, just vote and say why you voted that way.
I voted for the DS. I have played both and I think the DS is the best bang for the buck. I think it has a better selection of games and the other features of the PSP don't interest me much (most of...
This is one of the most fun games I've played in a long time. It is a remake of invaders but don't let that throw you off, it isn't a simple or easy game. There is really cool ship upgrade system, boss ships, tons of different enemies, really cool techno style music (if you've got a sub you'll...
I've been playing for a little over a week now, gotta say I am enjoying it. My first character was a Tartaru blm that I got to lvl 13 before restarting as a Hume rdm, which is now lvl 12. I was just wondering if anyone else here is close in level so we can party sometime. I am in Windurst and my...
