I'd like to see all "upgrades" removed personally. Back-burner is far too powerful when not behind someone, the scout stun thing is just an all-round bad idea. I'd also like to see the sniper class removed as I feel it goes against the general 'fun' feel of the game. Getting one-shot-kille...

Hmmmm. Not as good as the older ones.

I think the actors perform better in front of a live audience, it felt wooden almost without the studio-audience-ness and the laughter track.

The nominal voltage in the UK has been officially changed to 230 Volts - so we're all the same now.

Yes. 32 bit systems can only address 4GB of total memory, across RAM, GFX, CPU Cache, etc. There is a technology named Physical Address Extension that will allow more, but it's an expensive way to address memory.

Today I have my windows wide open, sitting in a t-shirt, drinking a cold glass of coke, and listening to 100% Summer Mix '96.

Some quality summer tunes on that so far.

I LIKE TO MOVE IT MOVE IT!

Pass a reference to the parent when you initialise the child. The child can then store that reference so it can talk back to the parent. You could even pass a reference to the string array if you really wanted - but a reference to the parent should cover you in every circumstance. I'm surprised the ...

I'll start when I can buy it .flac or another lossless open standard.

I'd say Fear 2 is worth a dabble. It's not ground breaking - but it's good at what it does.

Maybe wait until it's £15 or in a steam offer/bundle.

They are relativly simple, well tesla coils are. As soon as you get into solid state controllers for them you need sillyscopes and things.

Quite hard to get hold of a neon sign transformer that is 230v and high enough voltage too.

You can buy kits tho.

F.E.A.R 2: Project Origin A solid fun linear single player shooter. It feels like HL2 with twangs of STALKER's atmospherics. All very well put together and plays well on my modest PC. I must be near the end of it and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Metacritic has it at 80 but Id say it deserves a littl...

Plasma have superior blacks, and a superior viewing angle.

LCD lasts longer (twice as long) and is cheaper.


I've seen both, and for proper film watching plasma wins. For daytime telly watching may as well go LCD and save some notes.
