  1. Have you tried returning the disk at the place of purchase? It might just be a bad print. You might also want to check the disk for visible damage. Another solution might be to return the game altogether and buy it from an online digital distributor instead, thereby bypassing your DVD-drive. Have you checked that your DVD drive is actually a DVD drive by trying to play/install other DVD's with it? This might sound stupid, but some people mistake their CD drives for DVD drives..
  2. Everyone evolves, one way or another. Something simple as a member on a board getting a title as a moderator can alter a person's behaviour. Keywords in capital letters. The pet peeve is about the seemingly arbitrary way the general rules are written/enforced. Rules that seem to change from person to person, with the baggage each and everyone of us carries weighing into the calculation. Something that's a joke to one is apparently HARASSMENT to another, because if someone doesn't have a sense of humour (or doesn't appreciate a different kind of humour), they can ARBITRARILY call the harassment card, even though this supposed kind of harassment is usually combined with the term PERSISTENT and nothing of the sort has been seen on these boards. ONCE is a joke, PERSISTENT is harassment in the real world. But not on these boards, depending on if you're HARD-WORKING or not. Calling someone a NERD on a geek board is sometimes considered trolling, when someone with 10k+ posts who basically uses trolling as a style of debate can apparently do that without repercussions, using the baggage from years past (on a board, far, far away). Not to mention that moderators are supposed to be viewed by us mere members as HARD-WORKING, disregarding the fact that NO MEMBER (as far as I am aware of) has never turned down the offer to become a moderator, not even when they've explicitly stated on these very boards that the title would be turned down by them (called HYPOCRISY). Please also disregard the fact that the same people have been coming here for YEARS just for FUN doing basically the same thing they're doing now (mostly spamming, in these cases) and that the title is completely VOLUNTARY. People who are entering my PERSONAL SPHERE by sending me PM's are getting me banned when I explicitly tell them to GET THE **** OUT of my sphere if they have no reason to be there. Because they are HARD-WORKING and demand RESPECT for that. No matter if the person in question has done NOTHING to earn that RESPECT, unless getting away with thousands of posts that would be deemed SPAM on any other place on the internet is considered respect-worthy. People who were ARTICULATE, INTELLIGENT and INTERESTING as a member become CONDESCENDING, DEROGATORY and plain INSULTING with the right (wrong?) title, and suddenly consider members PM's as plain M's, and who can post them (semi-) openly, but demand that their OWN PM'S remain a capital P for personal. Because they are HARD-WORKING and demand RESPECT and all that ****. People do evolve, some just slower than others. None of this is important though, which is why it's just a pet peeve of mine.
  3. I just had a chat with a real pornstar!! Of course, any decent and normal human being would never have heard of her, but seeing as this is a board filled with sick filth (yes, I am looking at you, FINNS!) I am sure that Belladonna doesn't need any introduction. I was surfing around on the net, found this weird community, read a few of the member profiles, found Belladonna on there (but I thought it was an automated profile, made by some PR firm or something..), noticed that she plays video games in her spare time (and own a Nintendo DS.. the old, fat, gray version), decided to join to leave her a comment about how cool it would be to frag a pornstar in an online game.. and got a reply! So last night I was chatting with her on this thing called a Shoutbox. It's like a messenger type of service that embedded in the webpage. It was.. disturbingly cool. Oh, and I strongly discourage anyone who has never heard of this person to google her ass (literally) as she's very.. graphic and.. unconventional. I don't personally approve of her work myself (not that I've seen much, except for a trailer for one of her movies that she posted on the community) and I am sure most of you guys wouldn't either.

    Yeah, they did! The Leafs always gets these weird schedules. At one point this season, the Leafs had played like.. 15 games, while every other team in the league was at 10-11 or something. And now they have this period when they play almost no games at all. Tonight they face off against Boston. Without Sundin, but with a little luck we'll get Raycroft back. He only had a strain.
  5. It works in Sweden. But DAMN that game looks crappy! I really hope that planet they were on was one of the most generic places in the entire game. It looked so dull and uninspired! The combat.. I have no idea how fun it is to play, but it sure looks boring to me. And stiff. And the physics looks insane. And the character models are unbelievably ugly. The whole thing reminded me of MDK2, if anyone remembers that old game, down to the unrealistically thin extremities on the models and the aim reticule on some of the weapons. All in all, an extremely unflattering video of a game that sounds too cool to be true.. on paper.
  6. I LIKE GREEN!
  7. I never use MSN, mainly because it is full of ads and crap I don't need. But I believe Zune can be something good, even though the name sounds so silly in Swedish like you wouldn't believe.

    I hate when the Leafs have a few days off.. It's so boring. Except if Ovechkin plays, of course. Or Malkin. Or Crosby. I should be happy the Leafs get a few days of rest (injuries to Sundin/Raycroft has time to heal) but it's really driving me nuts.
  9. Some moderators on this board may evolve into a pet peeve of mine.
  10. Yeah, I've heard that meta is like.. 253 years old!
  11. Haha, I loved the angry Q*bert! I'm going to send that picture to my mom, she used to play that game all the time on my old Commodore 64 back in the eighties! Paint those damn squares faster!!
  12. Oh, right, I forgot to mention: nerds need not apply. You actually have to listen to music to be able to enjoy the songs.
  13. Bully. But my girlfriend has taken over my game. Everytime I try to start it up, I get to play around for like ten minutes before she comes crawling into my lap like some kind of cat. She just loves finding those hidden G&G cards/garden gnomes/rubber bands! I'm also waiting for the next Gothic 3 patch. When it arrives, I'll be all over Gothic 3 for the next few weeks. In the beginning of December, me and my cousin have decided to buy ourselves a copy each of Neverwinter Nights 2 and play through the OC in co-op. He's renovating his apartment right now, so I'm not allowed to play the game until then. Grr.
  14. Embarrassingly enough, Singstar is probably the game I've had the most fun with in my entire Playstation 2 career. I own Singstar, Singstar Rocks, Singstar Popworld, Singstar Svenska Hits, Singstar 80's and now Singstar Legends too. We've had a few Singstar evenings, where me and my girlfriend invite a bunch of friends over (usually no more than eight or so because otherwise the mics get too crowded and you never get to sing) and forced everyone to sing. At first everyone's embarrassed and uptight, but after a few minutes we're singing our lungs out! It helps if there's a bit of alcohol involved too. Still, it's awesome fun. After a while, you'll see people fighting over who gets to sing next. And you'll see people howl like wolves, trying to hit that last note when they're ten points behind their opponent. Some people get up and try to outdance their opponent (mostly because it looks so stupid that you can't help from laughing.. which destroys your singing). Damn.. I sound like a Singstar commercial! Anyhow, it's well worth a buy. Initially the price is steep (because of the mics) but after you've bought one set with mics, the rest of the games are cheap (without mics).
  15. Oh oh! You have to get Bully, Dragon Quest 8: Journey of the Cursed King, Kingdom Hearts, Burnout 3: Takedown, Black (short but sweet!), lots of Singstar, Okami, Final Fantasy XII (when it arrives in Europe.. grr), GTA: Vice City & San Andreas too!
  16. Yeah, I come here for the hot finns, nothing else.
  17. I'm at work.. doing worky things. Like typing this extremely important post.
  18. Well, considering that you've played World of Warcraft for almost 40 hours this week, it's not difficult to see how you're wearing that bottle. I mean, why waste time going to the toilet?
  19. Your motherboard needs to support SLI (for Nvidia) and no, you can't combine two different cards. The video cards has to be the same model.
  20. I don't know if this is the right thread to post this in, but.. I need a picture of kirottu in a dress. It's for.. uh.. research uses! ANYHOW, anyone know where I might find one? Ps. I already tried www.hotfinnishmalesindresses.com and www.x-dressingfinns.org, but they only had 253 pictures of him. I need more.

    Wow.. that was a weird score. At least it was on away ice. :|

    NHL

    Yeah, I love when Kaberle and McCabe click. It's like we get offence from everywhere; the forwards bring the first attack and if the puck isn't cleared then there's our sexually ambiguous duo at the back pumping in shots.. uh.. right. You get the point. Four wins in a row! I can't even remember the last time that happened )
  24. This person flew to Japan just buy the thing, because he couldn't wait several months. I mean...I love games and stuff...but not only did he pay for the expensive console, but for the expensive plane ticket. Hardcore game console fan or not...people are nuts. :crazy: What makes that guy extra stupid and insane is that due to the region encoding and stuff he will have to get all his films and games from Japan. It probably not even compatible wrt to power supply either. HAHAHA! Not really. The movies will be region encoded, but the games will be region free. The thing about Blu-Ray is that it's supposed to be able to handle all languages and localizations on the same disc, so they only have to print it once and then be able to sell it in all regions. So he's going to have a problem with movies but not with games.
