Ah. I only ask sense you seem to be more up to date on it than I. No worries.

2. Is this the game they say will kill WOW and take EVE's pvper's? - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
It looks like Morrowind. Not kind of like morrowind, but like they ripped out the entire graphics engine. I saw nothing in that trailer that was exciting. No gameplay to speak of, 3 generations of graphics technology out of date, and lots of tex...

3. Which graphic cards.... - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
8800GT 512MB. They're hard to find, and a bit more expensive (IIRC off the top of my head) than the cards your looking for, but they're also the fastest cards available, and the most cost/performance efficient cards ever made. Ever. And as a rule...

4. might upgrade to linux - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
I strongly recommend Ubuntu. While I personally don't actively use it, I have played around with it. Strange as it is to say, but Linux makes everyday PC operation fresh again, if only because your scrambling to get everything working ^^;. Just ...

5. woot upgraded for trinity anyone else - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
You'd have had a lot better performance getting a single 8800GT 512mb than going 2x 8500GT... SLI is only useful for top end cards, as you will almost *always* get a larger performance increase on one powerful cards than SLI on two weak cards.

6. Advice on new PC sought... - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
Aye. "odd" ram configurations like that are a bit tricky to get into DC. Of course, real world performance of DC is around 10-15%, neya? Even if you didn't get it in DC I don't think you'd have any appreciable performance difference on such a powe...

7. Nightwish - Dark Passion Play - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
Dark Passion Play was amazing. Nightwish has definitely proven that they can survive without Tarja (despite her beeing amazing), and I just LOVE them going back to their style from Once.

8. Advice on new PC sought... - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
Agree 100% on the 8800GT 512MB. Those cards are sick and wrong. They are, by far, the fastest cards on the market, and with a MSRP of only $250 there really is no reason to go lower. Much love to 65nm process! 4GB of ram on a 32bit OS is nearly p...

9. World of Darkness - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
Paradox is a powerful deterrent, but when you consider the list of wtfpwnt options a mage has at his disposal... I might have to go reread the mage book. Its been a long time, and the one time I did read it was in HS with a ****ty GM. I just remem...

10. World of Darkness - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
WoD Mage is just stupid. Maybe the new books fixed it, but seriously, they are a powergamers wet dream. You powergame those without even trying. Vampire and Werewolves for the win. I haven't had much experience with the other WoD subsystems past...

11. WTF is wrong with my sig? - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
Make the sig you want, then optimize it in imageready. Its def. the best program to use alongside photoshop to see how your save will look and what its size will be.

12. Call of Duty 4 : Masterpiece - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
I only have access to the 360 version here on campus. IDK if there are significant differences between the pc version or not. Graphics: AA really realy badly needed on the 360. Texturing seemed off somehow, so did animations, too slow or somethin...

14. Crysis - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
I will admit, I've only played the demo. It didn't seem worth buying to me. Aliens are to crysis as lolrocketzombies are to farcry. I had a feeling, like farcry, that the game would go downhill once you got fighting aliens. Maybe I'm wrong, who kn...

Originally by: LeiKung As far as bombers go. They dont suck now, If you use them for what they are good at. For one on one PvP, they are not good, because they are not designed for that. I'm going to have to disagree with that. The o...

17. Alienware Laptop Freezing up - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
Edited by: Mike Atropos on 23/05/2007 05:59:47 ? Is the OP talking about a laptop? It sounded like he just got his desktop system back. Whatever, if its a laptop, most of the same applies. Clean the fans, blast the dust, kill the OC. Not to m...

18. How do you keep your children safe online? - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
Chances are, if you have to ask this question, your kid will likley know more about how to use the comp than you (or will after do something like install a PITA program), so it becomes a moot point. Also, notifying the police doesn't do anything...

19. Alienware Laptop Freezing up - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
If it overheated and crashed, your OS isn't to blame, your hardware is... So kill the overclock your likely running (its Alienware, they could have factory OCed it), buy real fans, not the shoddy ones it likely came with, use compressed air and b...

20. Starcraft 2 just Warcraft III with different models? - in Out of Pod Experience [original thread]
I've finished watching the gameplay video, and I've got mixed feelings about it. First, the animations and modeling are simply superb. The units move very fluidly and the new abilities to move across terrain look great. That said, the overall gr...
