I agree with getting rid of copy protection.

Rarely, do I pirate a game, my internet doesn't allow it, and I'd have to seriously consider it if I could.

I've had the tSims 2, for a while now. But recently it's stopped working, every time I try to run it it claims that there's emulation programs in it, which there aren't. I haven't even attempted to crack the game, since the cd's always nearby. . .

But that's just one of my gripes. . .

I'll buy it (Crysis) \, eventually. Right now I need to get MGS4, and a few other games, so it's on the waiting list.

Does anyone know a program where I can rip 360 and Cube FMVs? I got one for a PS2 and PS1..

I just need one for 360 now.. or does anyone know a place where I can down LO and BD FMVs?

More like POWER MODE ACTIVATED WITH CHICKENS right

As for RSV I'd feel more inclined to play some co-op if we had two other people... Arrange for Skype, maybe yell at each-other while doing so, etc

I've seen myself using my PC more for arcade emulation rather than FPS, though RSV2 and small portions of CoD4 have been stating otherwise, but I'm not going to even start playing TF2 again until school ends

So uh, I'm hopefully building a PC in the summer or after my shitty exams.

IT'LL BE SO MUCH BETTER THAN MY CURRENT PC GUISE. Hopefully I can play some ****awesome games. Been thinking of getting:

Battlefield 2142, RSV2 and uh, mebbe Cod4.

[Stavros]

Well, if you haven't gotten it yet, get The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY.

That'll hold you over for a while. . .

[Domon Kasshu]

Ew Oblivion. Already tried it on the shit60 and it got boring really fast.

[Stavros]

I'd say at least try it for the computer, if you love to mod stuff, that's a safe bet. . .

Ever heard of a little game called Crysis? Or The Orange Box?

[Brutal]

Crysis is awesome.

I haven't played it in awhile though.

dreamcast emulation is pretty boss

[Toasty!]

So, lets say I wanted to buy a computer that could run TF2 top notch. How much would it cost?

one grand minimum, i say

'depends on whether you're transfusing parts from your current pc, your monitor size (larger resolution = more grafficks processing power necesary), and your ability to transfuse parts from your current pc based on whether it was based on a btx or atx case formfactor

tl;dr it's not cheap

[Domon Kasshu]

Lmao :v

So I'm building a PC in the summer. **** YEAH!

I already has a monitor (lmao 2 to be exact) and I'll get my dad to buy Vista, so I just need to spend money on the more important pieces of hardware :D

[Stavros]

DO NOT get vista, stick to XP. . .

And does this come from someone running XP or Vista?

I haet Vista, but I've grown to tolerate it. Plus distribution of XP halts in June so why buy an OS deemed dead by it's manufacturer?
