FYI I found the PERFECT setting for that friggen game. Turn off the x and y linked sensitivty then set your y sensetivity to around 60-70 and your y sen...whatever to 75. Man...feels just like halo 2. Also turn off camera bob as well as fast look. Good stuff, I really LIKE this game now!

im fixing my aunts computer, and id like to avoid a reinstall if possible
it was loaded to the gills with spyware, adware and viruses.. but theyre all clean now. i hooked the hd up to another computer and ran adaware/spybot/norton and they all come up clean, so i guess its all clean now, or at least mostly clean
problem now is, i cant get online.
ive reinstalled winsock and tcp/ip, and im actually typing this through remote desktop, so it has connectivity. the only page ive been able to bring up in either IE or firefox is my router's config page. i cant bring up any other sites, or ping them, even by ip (so its not dns)
anyone have any idea what it might be?

Is it really so hard to answer a question in the game? After getting killed I asked how the guy knew I was there. I was far away from him and didn;t think he could hear my footsteps but he turns around and kills me and goes about his business. As soon as I ask how he knew all I get is HAX replies. That doesn't help me become a better player. Neither does telkenisis. Thanks.

There's such a wide variety of games for the system, but I'm wondering if the average gamer just has two or three titles, with the rest in a I'll-get-later-maybe queue. Or do you actively hunt down the games people talk about?

My girlfriend and I are the show apartment for our apartment complex. Its great because we get our utilities payed for and 50 bucks off of rent every month and we only have to deal with a few people coming in every week or so. Most of the time we arent even here, so it doesnt matter. We keep a spotless apartment, yadda yadda yadda...
Anyway, so they call me up the other day, and Im thinking to myself, damnit, they must be coming over to show the apartment. Nope, its the apartment manager asking if I can bring by my key to be copied, so they can have a key to show the apartment.
This is when my "ohshit wtf" meter went off. I asked "Did you lose the key?"
She answers: "No, our pest guy needs a key"
bullshit meter goes off
Me:"ok, Ill bring it by"
I walk into the office today, two weeks later, after thinking about this and I say... "Ok, I know I didnt turn in the key so you guys can copy it, but my reservation is that somewhere down the line someone lost a key. If that is the case, I want my locks changed."
Her face gets angry and says "I already explained this to you. Our pest guy took the wrong keys, which are our spares. We cant make a copy of our main keys, so we need your key to make a copy and show your apartment. Because you have waited two weeks to come here, we have had to find another apartment to show, which was very inconvient for us."
Now... my question is. If they have a main key, why the fuck couldnt they show my apartment? If they have a key at all, why couldnt they show my apartment. I gave them my key to copy, but I feel like a key as been lost. I dont like that idea at all. Fucking bitches

Now, listen to the first track from this soundtrack -> http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000000OEM/102-4134415-6724153?v=glance
Does the teaser trailer music sound like a reprise of that soundtrack ??

Tycho is right: Worlf of Warcraft comes to a screeching halt once you hit 60. The endgame seems to be built for people with no other occupation than playing games all day. Nothing more irritating than standing around in Org doing nothing until the human logistics dealt with. I am very close to canceling my account.

Reason why I'm asking is that I bought the latter one forgetting it came with a component cable but it turns out the one that came with the console gave me sound but no picture. Thinking it was fried or something I used the one in the link and it worked perfectly (on my standard non-hd crt).
I sent Armybob the busted cable and appearently it works for him. What gives?
