Anyone every try the old formula Dr. Pepper? They call it Dublin Dr. Pepper. I guess it's the only franchise to use the original formula with cane sugar.

Three days running Windows 7 and I will buy this immediately on release.

Very satisfied overall with its performance, visual aesthetics, compatibility with older 32-bit apps, and most importantly, UI organization. They've really made access to different parts of the OS much simpler and more logical. I mean I'm actually hitting the Win key and using the Search / Command box often now. It more often than not brings up what I wanted. Type UAC and hit enter and you're taken to User Account Control. Search just works a whole hell of a lot better.

Performance is awesome. I added an extra gig of RAM, so with 4GB it's very quick and capable. 2GB was borderline so I'd recommend at least 3.

You can download this tomorrow. So far my mobo, gigabit NIC, sound chip, graphics card, even printer and mouse all have zero driver issues.

So I gave in an took up Turbine on their Lord of the Rings Online 10 dollar special. I played the beta extensively and even did a mini write-up here. I was pretty hooked by the time the beta ended, but since all my friends played WoW and I was poor, WoW was where I went.
Now that I am playing again so many good memories are flooding back, and more than that I am enjoying both the polish and also the additions. I am enjoying the complexity of it. Maybe because I find WoW a bit TOO user friendly, or maybe just because its different, but I am really enjoying it.
I am playing a dwarf champion and finished off Ered Luin, jogged my way through the shire stopping at a couple of taverns and am now into Breeland, finished some of the epic quest line and am slowing down to work on my profession and questing.
Now if only I could get my brother and friends off of the smack that is WoW and into LotRO... how do I do this?!

However, other apps, such as Latest Chatty from developer Alex Wayne, were rejected simply because of community members' posts (caution: further expletives) beyond his control that were still fully accessible through Safari on an iPhone or iPod touch."

I am getting the itch again. World in Conflict: Soviet Assault was an awesome excuse to replay the whole thing again. I love the story, and some of the missions are super challenging and awesome. Plus, the really big fucking guns you get to wield are awesome.

There are a lot of games out that I would like to try, so I need your help picking. I haven't played DOTA (wasn't a fan of WC3), I don't even think I know what that stands for. I get that it is a "Hero" style RTS, and people are saying it draws from Diablo 2 and WC3.... anyway, I am interested in Demigod, and I wonder if I would like it since my only experience with that style of game was with the DOW2 demo (if that is indeed the kind of game we are talking about). I wasn't a huge fan of DOW2 from what I played, so I don't know what to think about that kind of game.

I was also looking at steam and I saw BattleForge. I'm not a card game kind of guy, so I don't know if this would appeal either. EndWar looks cool too, but it also looks like a WiC clone, and the reviews aren't that great. Is it fun? Do people play online? I had a good time with the Sacred 2 demo a few months ago and then forgot about it... maybe I'll pick that up.

Any suggestions, shack? What's been released within the last year or two that I missed that is an awesome game?

Any genre is fine, what are some under appreciated titles?

I want a real Mortal Kombat game.

I want to see pain, suffering , hate, pitty, and most of all, violent unforgiving brutality. IM talking what makes violence in modern society.

I want to see an M+ rated game, thats totally unforgiving. I want to see blood, sweat, and tears in EVERY hit.

I want to see Sonya high punch(7-HP) Kano in in the face ...and it just breaks off in brutally violent screaming agonizing glory.

In every Fatality i want to see a story, i want to know the pain this person is going through. I want it quik to the point (cuz i dont want some bs story screwing up my quik , fast passed fighting game.) and brutal. I want to see a flashback, his child, his love, his wife, his life, his morals, all this person stands for.... and i want to see that destroyed, every single time i land the final combo, killing blow.

I want to see Lui King Machine gun/Bicycle kicking someone on the chest, and i want to see sweat, dirt, blood and, agony out of every hit.

Screw the censors, and the media... you didnt care about that before... why do it now?

I want to see who wants/feels immortal, i want to see Kung Lao's face broken, his hat destroyed, and him screaming in agony when he should be long and dead... then coming back in all his dripping bloody violent glory and ripping Shang Tsungs arms off, in the most unforgiving way.

I want SCREAMING... lots and lots of pain.

It makes me think mortal kombat was never that violent to begin with... damn
(but we all know back in the day, it was the goriest most brutal, and even technical fighting game of its day and age.) I want a good, violen,t technical ,fighter and i want it to be mortal kombat. But campy gore and blood will only get you so far.

MK is campy now, but what people dont understand is, thats not really what made it good, it was at one time actually a very brutal game. Thats when it was all it could be...

guess thats all, i just been talking to myself for the past hour and a half hour about this, as i do .... (a 2d/3d (2.5d) contra (shattered soldier), a samurai/machine gun artist (neo contra) and even a racing game that is totally online, where u can sell car parts pull up beside people and race, etc... (burnout paradise/ a rumored need for speed game)

and the controls for that dragon game for ps3...

I still haven't finished the DoW2 campaign and keep meaning to so yesterday morning I sat down with my coffee to try and knock out a bit of it. When I opened up my games list in Steam I saw Civ 4 and remembered that I had a early saved game and decided to refresh my memory as to what was going with that first. Four hours later I was finally able to make myself quit out of Civ and I never played any DoW2. :(

This is why I hate Civilization 4.

You know how there's that classic science experiment where you put celery in a glass of water with dye in it and the capillary action pulls dye into the celery

Digital Camera People:

So I've been thinking about buying a DSLR for a while now, and my photos I took in New Zealand look so comparatively terrible that I've got a good argument to give the wife.

But I've got a few questions first:
1) What's the new hotness in DSLR right now? The Canon D60?
2) Are there any cameras that have a healthy community? For example, customized firmware or home-brew hardware hacks?
3) Are there any used, previous-generation (year or two old) cameras that would be a bargain?

Shack homowners or carpentry menz:

How do I tell the difference between hard wood floors and laminate? We have floors that we assumed were hard wood, but now I'm not sure and I don't really know what the difference is. There's a spot that feels rough and doesn't shine. It's where my desk chair was, and the finish probably got ground off from dirt and chair wheels over the last couple years. We want to repair the spot, but I'm not sure if I need to buy a product for wood floors or laminate.

I removed the board between the rooms where there's a gap and saw that the floors have a layer a couple mm thick of wood that's the stuff on top, then about half an inch of some other type of wood that's probably compressed particle board or something, then some plastic stuff underneath. I can try to take pics if that would help.

Shacker who use the Nike+ thingy:

Do you use it mainly to look at your own stuff, or do you also like seeing how much other people are running, as well as being able to show other how much you run? The reason I'm asking is because I'm thinking about putting that sort of "social" stuff into my own exercise-tracking app for the iphone. Look at some guy's workout, notify the internets of exactly how jacked and tanned you are the very second you leave the gym, yadda yadda yadda. I myself don't really see the appeal of sharing this type of information with other people, unless it's a coach/coachee type of situation. But then I turn on the news and they're talking about how I should tweet them, so wtf do I know :(

The 120hz interpolation sucks for regular tv but I'll be damned if it doesn't kick ass for sports.

Even though Comcasts Versus feed is compressed and shitty, it still looks pretty damn good with the interpolation on.
