  1. I've always been a sucker for old Celtic and Norse designs. Of course, it depends on how the rest of your place looks like inside... a bit hard to imagine from your descriptions so far
  2. Retiring it to the old threads home... continued here...
  3. Start of old topic End of old topic Haven't watched any movies recently
  4. Forgot that one. Haven't even installed it yet. One of these days... I forgot a number of "OEM" games that came with various cards over the years: Soldier of Fortune II, Hitman II, Die by The Sword, Big Mutha Truckers and Unreal Tournament. Not necessarily anything wrong or bad about them, I just keep forgetting that I have them (except Unreal T. which is in its nature "uncompletable")
  5. In reverse chronological order... Trackmania - Only got it recently. Still plenty of tracks to go around Tombraider: Anniversary - Made it to Atlantis then got overwhelmed by boredom (reinstalled the original and completed afterwards instead) Victoria, an Empire under the Sun - Just takes an awful long time to complete... Neverwinter Nights 1 - Made it to somewhere mid chapter 4 then got overwhelmed by boredom (never tried SoU which was also in the box) Trespasser - It didn't like my hardware back then, maybe I should pick it up again Deathtrap Dungeon - Made some progress then got overwhelmed by boredom (insert list of 16 and 8 bit games here)
  6. Yay, the poll works now Then I noticed this at the bottom after voting... First Vote : Sunday, 02 March 2008 08:14 Last Vote : Saturday, 09 August 2008 19:20 I think this vote is rigged
  7. The only place I've seen her before was in Zardoz. Nothing like a movie with a loin cloth clad Sean Connery running around killing, raping and pillaging
  8. You could always ask Shryke for advice
  9. Agree on most accounts I played BF2 for all of 20 minutes on my little brothers PC, so I might not be fair to it. It simply didn't interest me. Never tried the 2142, it looked like it was online, multiplayer only (the MMO version of the BF's). I still play BF1942 every now and then and even BF Vietnam too
  10. Hmm... poll might need a bit of "fixing". Voting gives a "Invalid Token" error on a blank page
  11. Good luck The "oddest" interview I've done (applying for a job) took place from 2:00am to 6:00am in the morning on a conference call. You just have to love time zone differences
  12. Let me guess, you are a native English speaker? Yeah, I am. On further consideration, I've come to the conclusion that I was overly harsh on my post, and would thus like to apologize to Moatilliatta for its tone. I'm not really sure why I got annoyed by that in particular. Sorry. Everybody can have a bad day...
  13. We've had bots in the past that would keep up the appearances of "normal" behaviour, using AI to create semi meaningful posts and topics. You never know, the guy sitting next to you may be a bot As for the topic... never seen Cirque Du Soleil except on TV a looong time ago. I would love to see one of their shows some day
  14. I haven't had any problems with 64bit so far
  15. Umm... what does Cirque Du Soleil have to do with the Green Bay Packers (whatever that is)?
  16. *That* was a great story (wonders about the condition of his own collection of 20+ year old 8bit games...)
  17. Let me guess, you are a native English speaker?
  18. I didn't see Sid Meiers Pirates! on your list, but it works fine with Vista 64bit (as does Europa Universalis III)
  19. Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Turn User Account Control On or Off Makes for a much less unpleasant experience
  20. If you ever get the chance, even if very unlikely, to find Syndicate Wars in a bargain bin, you might want to give it a look at least. One of the most atmospheric "Bladerunner" type tactical combat games

    Books

    You could give David Gemmels "Troy" trilogy a try?
  22. Now, if I could just jog the old memory properly... isn't there something about the Master/Slave settings and the choice of first or second connector on the IDE cable? Or is that only relevant if chosing the CS (Cable Select) jumper setting?
  23. I'm pretty sure that there are a lot of acronyms out there that mean something something similar in some language ) Simply pronounce it as the English number 5, that's at least how I do it. Say whatever you want, this is still the **** engine. It wasn't really that funny the first time. It still isn't particularly funny. How about those not having anything constructive to contribute pack up their toys and play elsewhere for while?
  24. Post Your Destop 2008 the Uncensored Version
