I may be way off here but wasn't this cell tech in the PS3 also capable of CPU resource sharing (ie a busy PS3 machine online could search and locate idle online PS3 machines and 'borrow' some CPU time) ?

I get the impresson that some players didn't take time to appreciate the game itself, failed to activate the imagination. Games are interactive media, the game provides the props and fx, sets some plot and tries to nudge your imagination to let you get into the game. Players that over analyse...

I think the mods of these forums should consider creating a Doom3 section for all these threads, least till the fuss dies down a bit.

All these studies and counter-studies but not one link to see how they actually conduct the study... I mean I would get murderous if someone locked me up in a room for 48 hrs with only solitaire to play, would that be a effective study ? Not to mention the one undeniable factor - there are...

Just be cautious... they may just go and sell your e-mail addy to the spammers...or spam you with anti video game newsletters.

What concerns me the most about this whole affair is that some politician will use this to garner some popularity points. Lets see drive a push to ban all violent games and x amount of moms and dads will vote for me...hmmm gamers wont like that but most of them can't vote so who cares. As it...

I wouldn't ...what you 1st world peeps consider a minor amount is nearly 1/4 of my monthly salary, and I earn quiet a lot in comparision to many others (above av. middle class pay). Basically it amounts to nearly R 1000 (importer duties, distro mark-up, seleer mark-up)...currently Doom 3 is...

Ati will still have paid for the CD Keys the Steam downloaders must use, so the most likely scenerio is that Ati budgeted for X number of coupons = x number of CD Keys + a minor consideration for the few that actually order the boxed ver. with thier coupons. Quite strange though, I thought...

Yearly upgrades is part and parcel of PC gaming...least if you dare to go beyound windows solitair. I think the HL based mods will linger around, maybe get a FINAL release. No additonal support (updates) but will be available to download as free Valve classics. I wonder if Valve will drop...

"Offer only available while supplies last." That is saying they only have a limited supply of cards that have the coupon, not a limited supply of the HL 2 game, its plain common sense to have the same number of HL 2 game boxes as the number of coupons printed. Print a 100 and set aside...

I may be horrible naive about this but I'll ask anyway.... I believe most pirate groups actually believe they are doing a good thing, they believe they are providing a manner for a gamer to ensure the game is as advertised and not a waste of cash with solid marketing. The groups all have...

No it was called "Mutant" by Similiril, basically a platformer where you controled a robot that could transform into different forms, each form had a strenght and a weakness (example the main for was agile but lacked real firepower, the tank form had firepower but lacked manouverability...and...

The nastiest bit of anti pirating I ever saw was a game that allowed you to play without any hassels. I battled and fought my way to the end. struggled against the big bad boss, nearly burnt my brain out with the evil puzzles and eventually came to the final door. On this door was a little...

Personally I find players that ruin other players fun just because they are not having fun to be rather .... lame. Fortunatley for me there are not so many servers in South Africa, so grievers/lamers/cheaters are very limited because a perma ban is a effective punishment, no LOL and next...

I find the best benchmarking tool is to actually install the game, if you can't get the game to run in a manner you can play then re-assess what you need to make the game run better. If you must replace some part then try get a part that exceeds what you actually need to limit having to upgrade...
