thanks for the reply guys. Can someone just say that if i go for the PCI-E upgrade that i won't need to upgrade the mobo/cpu/gpu in 6-9-12months for vista? Technology is going THAT fast that i think i'm have to upgrade everything again by time i get into DX-10 and vista. and having just...

After a year or so of a PCI-E PC + Graphics card, won't it start showings its age? at which point technology is going so fast i'l have to upgrade AGAIN! So my Q is, would i be going PCI-E for the upgrade posibilities that infact, when the time comes, won't be there? I'd just be buying a new...

try going back to an older saved game then replaying it a bit. I had a prob later on in the game.

if you're still outside: After you see a pipe thing going up the cliff face with some guys on catwalks, just climb the ladder, then jump onto the trail again (there's some boxes) and you get to some zombies under a wooden shelter thing. Kill them then knock out the legs of the shelter to make...

^ yep...someone else had this prob so PLEASE!?!?

well sniper rifles are in every other shooter and are just too certain, the extra gain you get from shooting far, is countered by the fact its slow. If you notice, guards will stop and shoot, you'l get used to knowing how to use the crossbow. I love it! :D Also do other sniper...
