Has anyone seen my phone charger?
I could have sworn I used it down here last, but I'm damned if I find it now.

*edit*

Found it. Must have picked it up when I picked up a stack of laundry.

I've seen the first three films (as they were shown), both editions, and liked them a lot, but I've never been a big SW fan... I should probably point out that I'm 27 ;)

And I can't stand to watch the sugar-coated CGI that passes for the last three released - it literally gives me a headache trying to focus on it :oops:

I like one of the comments:

Quote:
The best part of the Star Wars universe is that there's a dwarf in a bin as one of the major stars. The only saving grace of the prequel movies is that there's the same now ELDERLY dwarf in the bin.
It's dedication to cruelty like that that gets overlooked. It's why I like veal.

GTA4: Ballad of Gay Tony is epic. :)

Sleep is just about to win over Fallout 3, but only because the game crashed again. I have never played a game with so many bugs (in the code and the environment)! It's a testament to the ambition and sheer addictiveness of the game that this rarely bothers me.

Can I ask what system you're playing that on?

I own the game but haven't got trying it yet due to playing a million demos and GTA4 on the PS3 :oops:

If anyone can find an image higher res than that (300mb ffs!), they get a E-cookie.

EDIT: 18000x18000 images use about 1.5gb of RAM to load up and all of your CPU :D

In my sig - mid-range (well, it was last year) desktop with E5300, 4GB PC2-6400 running Win7 32bit. Graphics crunching with a Sapphire HD4650 handles the game on high settings at 1440*900.

Set aside a couple of weeks of your life for it (and that asumes you're playing all day)! It takes a bit of getting used to, and once you complete it you'll want to try again, but with different skill sets and trying to be evil instead of good, which changes the game completely...

I like the sound of that :D , though I'll have to see if I'm persevering with GTA4, then it'll be Batman next 8-)

It might take me more than a few days, I'm nowhere near as good at games as I used to be as I fell out of playing them when I got broadband - and I often forget what the controls are in many of them, even after a few days :oops:

Still, looking forward to it, then there's the DLC too :D
