    300th Post =D

    There wasn't an option for 2-3 years, so I voted 3 years+ (3 more months I believe)

    Problems with Windows Vista...

    My roommate had an XPS M1330 with Vista preinstalled.. don't think he had that problem but it doesn't matter now as I reformatted it and put XP on it. What kind of flash videos are you viewing? Are they player-particular (i.e. break.com, youtube.com) or are they flash movies like on Newgrounds?

    Yes there is an option to "install other OS". I'm currently trying to sell my PS3 so I haven't bothered experimenting with a new OS. The hardware on the PS3 is great statistically, but whenever I'm using it I am bored to death by the massive loading times. For such a high end console, it is...

    Nintendo Wii

    If you want immersive multiplayer in addition to very well done FPS games, I recommend a 360 as well. The PS3 lacks titles, and the Wii has poor online capabilities (it's improving, but SSBB multiplayer games still have occassional lag and connection drops). I'm sure if you give it a year or...

    Windows XP SP3

    I went directly to Windows Update in IE and had the download and installation of SP3 completed. After a long reboot, SP3 is installed. No glitches of any sort, but doesn't feel any faster. I haven't put it on my machine personally since I hear that SP3 messes with the uxtheme.dll if it's patched

    Halo 3 Weapons.

    Those are pretty sweet! You ought to get a job with Bungie with some modeling like that.

    A 360 if you're a hardcore gamer, love first person shooters, and are willing to shell out $50 a year for a GREAT multiplayer experience. Wiileg3nd is pretty accurate in his description as well.

    GTA san andreas .. and then ?

    It's just GTA 4. Much like GTA 3, GTA 4 takes place in Liberty City.

    Re: Space scientist says texting is four times more expensive than receiving scientif Yep, text messages are quite a rip off. It's why I send them from here: http://toolbar.google.com/send/sms/index.php

    Best Budget for Gaming GFX Card?

    By the way, I recommend that you get an 8-Series nVidia card since they are going to bring Ageia physics via CUDA for those cards through a software capability (i.e. you won't have to buy a physics card, and your graphics card will be even more powerful)

    What is da bestest?

    COD4 for the greatest multiplayer experience ever. Crysis is good as well, but I would buy COD4 first.

    Is Chess a sport?

    Although it doesn't involve physical exertion, it requires mental exertion (if you're good at least). I wouldn't be able to call it a sport like football, but it could be in its own genre of sport.

    Who here saw Ironman

    Yep. Camera was a bit shaky, and there were Chinese subs, but it was quite good

    Windows XP vs Windows Vista

    I doubt Vista will ever beat XP as Microsoft is projected to release Windows 7 in 2010 (but knowing Bill Gates, that projected date is probably 5 years early). Vista is a hog when it comes to memory and performance; no matter how high end your computer is, XP will always run better than Vista...

    The Most Important Factor In An RPG Game

    One simple factor important to all RPG games: they must not be as easy as Final Fantasy.

    What gamepad are you using for pc?

    Keyboard and mouse! Gamepads are reserved for consoles only IMO. However, if I could get a keyboard and mouse to work on consoles..

    Iron Man XP theme

    Heh, good luck finding one; if you do then feel free to notify me. I'd suggest going to skinning/MSstyle modding forums and requesting it, maybe someone would be generous enough to do it!
