I had a Game for Windows Live problem when I first tried Bulletstorm. I am not sure what fixed, but it started working after I installed Bioshock 2. Doesn't make sense, but that is what happened. Jim

Well, not exactly COD but Gameloft has the Modern Combat series for IOS and android. There will be other options, whether people will use them is another story.

I have that Serta Manager chair, and I do not recommend if it is going to be used a lot. The cushion does not hold up that well.

It more of a localized heating, as you stated when the room with your pc is warmer. Myself, I have never noticed any big increase in heat in the rooms I have kept my pc in. Ijust have never noticed the amount of heat that would be required to effect anything else except that room.

I do not agree with this. I would think that your thermostat would have to be almost on top of you pc for this to happen. So in a ranch style house if your pc is in a bedroom and the thermostat is in the hallway, or near the livingroom, I would think it would not have much if any effect. Now I...

I just my drivers, and ambient occlusion is off.

Same here, I have had zero crashes so far. I have played about 30 hours so far. I also have not changed any of the settings the game recommended.

I live in Columbus now, and central OH must be one of the flattest places around. I grew up in the Cleveland area, and it was not this flat. I lived in Birmingham, Al for a while and I would not want to ride a single speed bike there.The hills where the outlaws live are pretty tough when I run...

I do not think you can do this, a 20 amp plug will not fit into a 15 amp outlet.

I normally don't take part in these theads, but I don't think that a graphics card will have much, if any effect on the electric bill due to heat generation. Usually a thermostat is placed somewhat centrally in a house, mounted say about 5 feet up. I have never seen a computer set up anywhere...

I also wish that this will come true. I never understood how people can take these numbers so seriously. Jim

Playing Oblivion right now ( kind of late, but you can't play them all new). It is like Fallout 3, but with swords and magic. :smile: I am not normally a hack n slash kind of guy, but I thought I would try it for $20. Now I am thinking of trying Dragon Age. I played both Mass Effect games, and I...

I picked it up at Walmart when I got off work at 4 am. My son will like the knit REach cap that came with it, and my wife will like the $20 Walmart gift that also came with it. My son and myself will be playing some co-op after he is done with homework. Jim

I don't know if you have done this, but you can unlock more themes in Windows 7. I did this after I upgraded ti Win 7 on my desktop. I bought a cheapie emachine laptop and it had a lot more themes to unlock than my desktop. Follow the link and try it...
