    Technical Help - Long and (slightly) Complex story inside

    Thanks heaps - ah well, it's a shame, but I've already found somewhere on the net to buy another one. Just to clarify, I did unplug it and leave it to dry (around 9AM) and then about twelve hours later plugged it in, hit a key to test if it was working again, then rinsed and repeated (pun not...

    Technical Help - Long and (slightly) Complex story inside

    Small bit of advice regarding a broken keyboard - I know fully well it is *mostly* stuffed, however it'd be good to get a second opinion. The keyboard in question is an old, mechanical Acer 6511-UH with lots of (unwittingly) programmable buttons and is, imo, the best periphiral I've ever had...

    Xbox 360 Elite HDMI cable - Can yous use another one?

    Hey guys (sorry in advance for what's probably a stupid question, I've been out of the game for a long time and know absolutely nothing about HDMI) I've recently moved interstate for uni, and found myself using my xbox with a monitor (used to use a TV) - the monitor has HDMI support, but I...

    Poll: Would you time-travel and kill Hitler?

    No. Outright No. As a historian, I must admit that the rise of Fascism (at least outside of Italy) and the genocide of the Jews would not have occurred if Hitler was alive, the alternatives may have been even worse. As hard as it sounds, we have to be grateful for what we have and glad that...

    Empires

    Hmmm... The greatest empires I can think of are: - Alexander the Great's (fell apart under poor leadership) - Roman Empire (fell apart under poor leadership and civil wars) - Mongolian Empire (expanded too quickly, then contracted under poor leadership after Ghengis Khan died) -...

    Need Some Advice On A Bethesda Purchase.

    In that case, then you should be more than happy with Morrowind. - There are about twenty different skills, different races (with different attributes) (though the game lacks perks.) - While I personally find that Morrowind lacks some replay value, there are many out there who would say...

    Need Some Advice On A Bethesda Purchase.

    Hmmm... If you're looking for console, then Oblivion 100% of the way. On PC, they both have their pro's and cons Oblivion: +: Good graphics, good combat, good 'worldspace' (by which I mean that even though it's a bit smaller, seems to be more detailed,) much larger modding community...

    Movie protagonists you wanted to get killed but didn't

    - The entire Twilight cast - Every Star Wars character only mentioned in the prequels (that didn't meet their end.) Not a movie, but Saul Tigh in the Re-imagined Battlestar Galacica.

    Good-looking Oblivion

    Hmmm... I started with Oblivion on 360, then went to PC, with PC offering a much better experience (HDR lighting, etc.) The only problem with modding it, is that there are so many mods out there that try to offer a better experience when in truth, all it does is make them worse. The only mods I...

    Poll: Most Anticipated Title

    Mass Effect 2 at the moment, but I'm also looking out for Modern Warfare 2, ODST, Assasin's Creed 2 & Dragon Age: Origins. Not interested in any of the other games in the slightest.

    What JRPGs are Good?

    Personally, the only good JRPGs I've played are the Kingdom Hearts games, mainly because there was so much Western input into them, and they had a solid foundation (though that's pretty much falling apart with the new titles coming up.) Otherwise I find JRPGs to be a bit over the top, and...
