Re: Dragon Ball DS (4 years ago)

Worldwide, anyone can join, who told you that? As long as you have a computer and the internet.
Link.
So anyone received a key yet?
Someone's been visiting naughty sites without protection?
Isn't this exclusive to US and EU?
Yeah, did those with 2 pc and a mac just to see if the usb is detected.
The light doesn't turn on at all and no device is detected so I assumed it's broken.
Huh, I assumed sending for repair would cost a couple dollars for the postage. Yeah I bought from someone in Hong kong, there's no one else selling and no stores in Melbourne seems to stock them. Pretty convincing for a dodgy item though.
So I bought it from ebay few weeks back, now it won't turn on, any idea how to get it fixed? How does one sends xbox console for repair anyway, perhaps I could do the same for it.

I passed a Quantum of Solace billboard today and wow ... how much does the new Bond Girl, Olga Kurylenko look like Elika!

Just thought I would share my random thought of the day with you all icon_wink.gif
So that's the chick, I thought I've seen her.

Anyway just got this game, what's the deal with Elika climbing on the prince when he's on the vines, that really bugged me somehow.
Is it trying to show that they're dependent on each other, when she could do all the moves the prince is doing and saving his ass.

I thought the prince was just slowing her down, imo.
Re: Play-Asia Coupons (4 years ago)
edit: nvm about the coupon.
Hey! Those scum used to be your friends and family! The least you could do is kill them and glee.
Really not that horror-scary actually, more like fear for life struggle, very nice. I finished in 10 hours, straight from 12am yesterday, couldn't tear away from the monitor, barely holding from browning my pants sometimes.
Played on medium, though the last chapter was a real anti climax.
Still, it felt great to finish that game, might try the new difficulty someday, it's exhausting.

www.catchoftheday.com.au has one at $199
Re: Spore's Release (4 years ago)
I haven't been following the game, is the creature creator included with the game or do you actually have to pay extra for it, is seperate program/software.
Nice recap on the RvR, haven't had the chance to experience that myself, though did alot of scenarios, tried the three scenarios and really enjoyed myself.

Was amazed how one could really just pvp and gain experience instead of just running the pve threadmill, though you'd be pretty poor without doing any quest.
My dwarf healer(runecaster?) had to choose which skills to purchase instead of just getting them all because it wasn't earning much doing scenarios only.

Only managed to get to level 11 for that dwarf, the other character I had, a dark elf nuker, got to level 13 and can't find the next tier scenario. Walked past an RvR area and got turned into a chicken then got tired of playing it. I'm guessing its not implemented yet, yes?
Not sure where its stated 20% from but I'm getting loading times at 5 seconds tops at any given area, which is a major improvement from 1 minute or more. Have you tried loading the game patched first hand or just reading some stats.
Actually loading time was fixed along time ago, about couple month after the game's released here, the enhanced edition is more about polishing than fixing, imo.
Oh extra quest and stuff too I heard.
Re: what to get? (4 years ago)
Sound card does improve the quality considerably, that depends if you do plenty of music listening.
Re: what to get? (4 years ago)
You'd need a decent headphone for the soundcard too, else its not worth it, imo. Seems like there's a sudden trend for pc upgrade over the couple weeks.
Re: Play-Asia Coupons (4 years ago)
I could use a coupon, just a quick question about using affiliate link, can I click on it once before final conformation purchase, got my stuff under cart and is on the enter coupon page.
Re: RAM more or faster ? (4 years ago)
There's no reason to future proofing hardware, the price will drop so low, it's not worth buying now when you'll be using for later.
Imho get q6600, its only $212 in msy, seeing you're going to overclock, it can go to 3ghz easily, the extra cores will help.

Couple it with decent cooler, you can get plenty room to oc somemore.

A question to answer your question, how much will you want to overclock, the extra .5 multiplier will help alittle, though the price difference is alittle too.
Remind us what you've got so far MIkes.
I'm impressed so far, you sir, are one patient man, I couldn't wait one day to get all that I want.
I thought playasia is common knowledge in this forum, must be mistaken.

The Antec Sonata III is great bang for buck,

The PSU that is included is an EarthWatts 500 Watt power supply which is worth 100$~ alone and is very reliable + stable.

And @ Eirlous an aftermarket cooler is not essential for overclocking, i have no problems getting my E8400@ 4.0ghz without any excess temps, and really only lower ur system by 5 degrees~ making it inefficient buy =) Although fanless ones are great for silencing your computer
Maybe for an e8400, but for q6600, its a difference between room temperature or oven hot. Oh, for ati gpu, it's a bliss when you no longer hear that loud fan.

I guess that's a good deal for the case then.
Not too sure about the psu that comes with antec cases, but I wouldn't get the psu that comes free with the case.

Investing in some aftermarket coolers for both the cpu and gpu is recommended, produce less sound and better cooling. (Then you can play with overclocking ^^)

I used these for my q6600 and hd4870, though installing the heatsing for hd4870 was a real pain, the result was worth the day's effort.

Re: Dwarf Fortress (4 years ago)
The first time I played was the last time as well, failed miserably and never got the courage to try again. Though the user created tileset looked interesting enough.
I'm not so versed in warhammer40k lore, someone tell me how that trailer is showing tyranids?
Can't wait to try it out when I get some cash soon.

My mother inlaw's taught me you cna pretty much haggle anywhere. I think it's a little Mediterranian old lady thing.

I recently got a fridge and washing machine and between the two of them saved nearly $300, so i suppose a TV would be a little like these. For the big price items the stores generally have some wiggle room for you get the price down.
Okay, so how do I haggle, just go to the salesperson and ask for cheap?
Doesn't make sense to haggle when they've set a price, just my thought. icon_confused.gif
