Making Screenshots in Games

So what do you use? Is FRAPS the industry standard now? Or is there something more lightweight or feature-rich that I can use?

Dear Shack,

Is there any reason to restart your computer after long sessions? Say you have gamed a bit, opened lots of browser windows, a few videos, photoshop etc. It's my understanding that in order to get the best performance out of your system, you restart to clear ram and other cache files. This might be a habit from Vista or earlier windows and no longer needed in 7 as it's better at releasing resources after closing a program.

I have a WD 320GB Blue Caviar as main (OS/Apps) disk, and a WD 1TB Black Caviar as secondary +pagefile.

seeing as HD prices are down for now, which upgrade would you go for:
a) a 750GB Black Caviar ($70) as main disk
b) a 2TB Green Caviar ($90) as secondary disk, switching the 1TB to main disk
c) suggestions are welcome

for b), how functional/recommended is it to put the pagefile in a "Green" disk?

ArmA2: Operation Arrowhead Gents!

Last night was fun! Sorry for the server crashes, though. I've done some research and apparently the 1.55 server executable has that issue - people trying the beta patch are having more success. I'm not sure if I want to recommend everyone go to the beta patch or not, as I'm not sure how Steam handles that. I'll do some more research on the matter.

In other news, Dslyecxi is looking for interest in a large Co-Op battle - see his post here:
http://www.shacknews.com/laryn.x?id=24646514

I will probably be trying some stuff out on the server and seeing if I can tweak more performance out of it tonight, if anyone wants to help test - I'll be in the TS3 channel. Look for me there after 8PM Eastern.

Having only watched a few smatterings of Star Trek TNG and all of the Star Trek movies, which of the Star Trek series would you recommend if I were to watch them from start to finish?

I seem to recall people loving DS9, is that what I should watch?

Damn power outages. A truck hit a pole a block away and knocked my power out two nights ago. Now my desktop won't post. The speaker just has a constant tone and the fans whir up as expected. But no display. I've pulled about everything out of it (even the RAM hoping I'd at least get a beep). Wondering if it's the PSU or the MB.

Any clues? :(

http://gamasutra.com/view/news/31775/Black_Designer_Stuart_Black_Hired_At_City_Interactive_For_New_WWII_Shooter.php

After departing from Codemasters earlier this year, game industry veteran Stuart Black, senior designer on the 2006 Criterion shooter Black, will head up a new London-based in-house development studio at City Interactive.

As creative director at the company's new UK studio, Black will lead development of what he described as "an exciting new story-driven WWII shooter that will emphasize high adventure in a genre that's become bogged down in reverence and historical accuracy."

Exciting new WWII shooter? Isn't it too soon for another WWII shooter?

Are there any recent RTS games like C&C Generals? Fairly traditional RTS mechanics with current/near future modern military without tons of crazy lasers? Company of Heroes with modern technology would be a great start, I didn't play it much but I didn't get the impression the opposing sides were very diverse where as Generals was fairly Blizzard-esque in its attempt to completely differentiate the playstyles of the different 'races'. I wish they'd just make a new Generals game :(

World Of Warcraft Cataclysm Countdown!
7 Days!

After realizing that I probably won't be able to hit 80 by next week due to RL stuff and other games, I just started working on cleaning up all my professions, rep gathering and other minor things so that at least I'll be in a better spot come Cataclysm.

Also, some cool stuff from MMO-Champion!

Cool map breakdown of leveling zones.
