What's the deal with x360 hard drives? I can't find a new one for sale anywhere (pref 120gb).

Does Gabe Newell have an input in any of the Valve games? Concepts? Basic Design? Just administration?

My mind has gone blank: What's that term used when designing a piece of software for when you keep on adding stuff and it all gets crazy. Often superfluous stuff that isn't necessary and only serves to increase development time and complexity?

T in The Park agrees with you

Can't decide whether to get either Just Cause 2, Blazblue or Super Street Fighter IV?

None of them. Save money and wait for the price drops.

That said, if you were desperate, Street Fighter IV. Trying to play online after a few weeks will kill you

Deleted user 30 April 2010 18:28:20

Cheers

Might pick up Saboteur for a tenner off HMV instead.

a fist?!? How big were his fucking ears?

That's the point. It's a joke. Essentially you really really don't want to put anything in your ear canal unless you have to. The membranes at the end are so delicate that one slip and you could seriously damage your hearing. Don't put anything in your ear.

What is a vagina?

The best engine in the world is the vagina. It can be started with one finger, it is self-lubricating, it takes any size piston and it changes its own oil every four weeks. It's only a pity that the management system is so fucking tempermental.

My mum just handed me a stack of old cd-rom games she found including my old Lucasarts Archives vol 1 with Sam and Max and Day of the tentacle \o/ among with a few fluff discs
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LucasArts_Archives

my actual question is...will i even be able to play these on my notebook running Windows 7?

I would check myself but I need to dig out the external drive from somewhere

Deleted user 7 May 2010 21:47:38

Just wondering if COD: MW is worth a punt at a fiver, do many people still play it online?

Can the Nintendo Wii play DVDs out of the box? If not, could it be added via firmware?

anyone used one of those Flip video cameras

looking for something cheap and portable for my honeymoon, don't want to deal with tapes and 120 minutes all up would be plenty (if you can edit/delte in camera)

just don't know how cheap they feel compared to similiar stuff on the market

I thought we were quite restrained given you are making home made porn.

oh that'll do my homemade movies nicely *rubs hands together*

saw this somewhere else but completely dismissed it cause I thought Xacti was the actual brand not Sanyo

I hate no longer

Think you'll need an SD card too, I'm not sure if one is included. I got a 16Gb for �18 on play a few weeks ago.

Nope it can't. Not sure about firmware. Also no I think.
