I could tell it was coming for several episodes. All of Jim's blank looks that were edited in after Ramsey yelled at him and the whole risotto thing: "*whine*too peppery, *whine* Too bland!". But I knew it as soon as Ramsey started talking about passion at the cutting block. As everyone else has...

I thought the part where they weaponize the warheads was hilarious. The film makers obviously don't know what a particle accelerator is or how weaponization works but hey, neither does anyone watching the movie! I agree with the overall sentiment here: Not a great movie, but fun. I really liked...

After watching the movie I feel the same way I did after reading the novel; I liked it, but I'm not sure why. Although one thing that I didn't like about the movie (I don't remember having the same problem with the book) was that the sex and violence was too much The characters were still the...

how does it compare to Oblivion? I couldn't get into Oblivion because the combat was too dull and world felt dead (like it didn't matter if I was closing Gates, picking flowers or not even playing). Any chance of Fallout 3 pulling me in? I really like the game in theory, but I felt the same...

Do you like the screen shake though? It's like getting it with a stun grenade. And I liked the dogs in theory but they need to show up on the radar. You could always tell where the chopper was in COD4 and know whether or not you could make it across the street without getting shot up. And...

I get frustrated any time that I know what I have to do and I feel that I've done it and yet I fail. One example is the Hell level in God of War. Namely the Rotating Spike Poles of Doom. I knew that I had to climb to the top and evade the spikes, I felt like I had moved enough for the spikes to...

Anyone been playing the Call of Duty World at War beta? I just don't like it. It feels slower than COD4 so I don't get the same rush from playing it. The artillery strikes basically hold up the action because of the major screen shaking. And the dogs are so frustrating because you don't know...

I had someone get that achievement over my dead body... it sucked.

I wish Valve had tied the new weapons to the healing achievement only. Keep the other achievements as fun goals or something to tell you when you've done something cool. But the weapons should unlock as you play the Medic and the better you play as the Medic, the faster you unlock the weapons...

Probably early next year. Valve is known for taking their time... and they have a lot of time. Three hours? Episode one was about that long but Episode 2 was more like 5 hours. After hearing about games like Medal of Honor Airborne and COD4, I don't think 5 hours is that bad for $30 game.

Synergy mod for Half-Life 2 has a lot of cool Co-op levels that you could all run through.

Why would he need to replace a 2.2Ghz dual core CPU in one year? Not even Crysis requires a super fast dual core or a quad core CPU. You don't have to replace a CPU just because there are newer ones available. You replace a CPU when the current one isn't cutting it. And the E4400 is still...

1. Overclocking is not necessary. Any dual core will run WOW without breaking a sweat. 2. That CPU doesn't come with a fan. You'll need to get an AM2 compatible heatsink/fan to cool it. Newegg should have the same processor with a fan.

It's an afterthought of a port. Both consoles that this game was made for had multi-core processors so it was probably a lot less work to just say "the PC version is going to need dual core as well". Also, this game looks really good.
