  1. I have a PS1 emulator that doesn't need a BIOS...
  2. Splinter Cell: The Movie Anyone else think this would be cool?
  3. http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-087 Sounds like it's based off this.
  4. If he does anything, my vote is for HL2 done in the FAKEFACTORY Cinematic Mod. (v12 or later)
  5. Yeah, where is NK going to come up with money to pay fines... lol
  6. I'll have to think about it, but I might be able to be of assistance with the site...
  7. Being famous is enough for now... Money comes later from all the fans.
  8. The CoD series doesn't use PhysX to my knowledge... (when I type "PhysX" I mean the Nvidia technology, when I type "physics" I me the process of simulating real life physical reactions) By the way, MW3 isn't that big of a GFX hog... I can max it out (except shadows or MSAA) on my laptop. (i5-3210m CPU, GT 630m 2GB GPU, 8GB 1600MHz RAM)
  9. lol, NK using MW3 as propaganda...
  10. I have an idea... You could share the finished videos with me, and I could accidentally get hacked and the hackers could put the videos up on my channel... Just a thought... Not a very good one, but a thought nonetheless.
  11. Read this: https://www.eff.org/issues/cfaa
  12. Honestly, I can't remember any one specific time that I could consider my happiest... I can list a few times though... 1. Any time I went and walked through a section of woods near my house when I was 7-8 years old. I always went in the rather large area that no one else every wanted to because it was a harder area to travel in. I ended up finding a nice small clearing one time, and just laid back and took a 3 hour nap. Woke up to a black bear wandering past, a pack of wolves off to the other side of the clearing, and a small deer sleeping next to me. I never found the clearing again. 2. Camping. Any time I went camping. One of the best was when I was on a SaREx (Search and Rescue Exercise) with Civil Air Patrol. We had about 40 people (all but 4 were non-adult teens) and we did capture the flag in a 1/2 mile x 1/4 mile area after dark. My team would've won had we been allowed to continue, but one guy ran into a tree, so the rest of us were told to stop. (adults are so overprotective, he even wanted to go back to playing once he got a bandage on his head) 3. Any time I'm with friends. You know, just sitting around bullshitting-the-breeze... You don't ever really remember the conversations, but that's where nicknames come from. There are a lot more, but I'm limiting myself to 3 at a time right now. Don't mistake this as a "top 3 list", it's just three times that are forefront in my mind right now.
  13. Try a dedicated third party backup program... Like O&O DiskImage and/or O&O AutoBackup...
  14. Or it could just be because there are a lot of little files that are being transferred, and that will slow down the transfer speed. (overhead, file info writing, error checking, etc.) If it was all just 1 big file, I'm sure it would be going faster.
  15. Congrats... lol
  16. Yes, at least out of the box it does... I know of a few ways to tweak Source physics to make them closer to real, but it takes a long time, and nearly 10GB of additional HDD space per-game. (not to mention only Tesla servers have the computing power to run the games afterwards... lol)
  17. I'll PM you.
  18. Sleeping Dogs can be a hog, but it doesn't use GPU hardware accelerated physics, so you don't have a reason to shell out for an Nvidia card unless you plan on getting some other games that support Nvidia's PhysX acceleration. I personally love PhysX, it seems to get closer to real physics than Havok or any other physics engine I've tried. (and I have quite a few games that use it, including Borderlands 2)
  19. No, just need a legit installation of Win 7. (it's a code for the 'Anytime Upgrade' system that's built into the Windows 7 update system) All the 'upgrade' does is unlock a few features, (it's possible to do so without 'upgrading') enable some things that help with stability, (just a few hundred settings changes in the registry) change all the labels to say "Ultimate", (really this is the part that costs the extra $80 when you purchase it normally) and allow you to install multiple UI language packs that can be switched to and from on the fly. (very few people use this capability) Basically the code just takes about 6 days worth of messing with your system out of the equation. (and cuts it down to 15 minutes of 'updating')
  20. Last I saw AMD had Sleeping Dogs or a CPU Magazine subscription if you go for a lower end card, whereas Nvidia is the magazine, Borderlands 2, or Primal Carnage. (as of now, on Newegg) I am in agreement for the GFX card choices, though I must mention that right now the only ones that will offload the physics computations off the CPU are the Nvidia cards. (AMD still hasn't gotten it integrated into their stuff, despite the fact that they could quite easily) So if your CPU is getting maxed out in games that have physics, you might want to try getting an Nvidia card.
  21. Ah, ok... That makes sense. Do you want a code that will upgrade your version to Ultimate? I can get one for you... Perfectly legit too.
  22. Companies have been trying for the past decade or so to make it so that despite you having purchased a product, you still can't ever own it. Car companies started the trend with leasing to allow more freedom with your vehicle purchasing, and other companies are doing it now to try and limit your freedom.
  23. Have you checked to see if you can get a replacement controller board for the drive? I've seen them for as little as $5 including S&H for non-SSD drives...
  24. To each their own... I would rather pay the same for 2 680s as I would a single 690, and get better performance even if I have to do a little work to get them to SLI properly. 670s are about 3/4 the performance of a 680, and can be OCed to beat the non-OCed 680s, so I'd personally recommend the 670 for a single card solution.
  25. From a lot of benchmarks I've seen, a triple GTX 680 setup can outperform a dual GTX 690 system for about 3/4 the price. Yes, I know, less CUDA cores, but still... From what I hear it's the difference between running an 8x/8x/8x/8x quad-SLI and a 16x/16x/16x tri-SLI. (it only outperforms if you can run all cards at 16x speeds) A dual GTX 680 will max out any game currently on the market, and only drops below 60 FPS if you're running a triple monitor setup with the biggest performance hogs there are. Triple 680 will bring it back up to 60 FPS on a triple monitor system. (or so the benchmarks I've seen seem to say)/
