Oh you have that in your university internet too? :lol: Those things gave me headaches for ages last year (thank god im off campus now hehe) :pray: Try http://megavideo.com/ then? They're usually high quality. And wow... I didn't know mushishi was already licensed in the US... :-X ^ I'll try that. Doesn't work as I already said, usually I use that site to download stuff. This episode belongs to a series that has been licensed in the United States. The respective holder of this license has asked to remove this file from the site. http://realitylapse.com/downloads/video ... shi01.rmvb

Thanks. The sig might be on hold for a little bit, just found out "splitreason.com" actually pays $250 for shirt designs they like (and others do). Figured I have a weekend with nothing to do, I'm going to try my hand at it. :P

v2, sharpened. And, yes, its a white border. Didn't like black. Anyways no text for the moment because I can't figure a good place to put it. But comments so far? Abstract, of course.

^ Can't torrent on the network. Campus internet, don't think it works. (might try anyways though lol) Also reality pass took down Mushishi from their site, you can't actually download any EP's. :(

You should be playing Crysis just fine on high with a decent fps as long as you go for a low res and OC your proccesor a bit. Anything less than 1680x1050 looks like complete crap on my monitor (LCD). I'll probably pass on crysis. Just played through the demo again, had a bit of fun and it ran decent on all mediums but meh, don't really feel like buying it.

Completly forgot about Systematic Chaos, definitely voting that one. :D

That isn't exactly the best emotion to post in this situation... :-s Well it made me feel sad and most likely everyone else who read it :cry: You do realize that is a sarcastic "stop crying, get over it" emotion, correct?

Sonata Arctica- The Boy Who Wanted To Be a Real Puppet.

That isn't exactly the best emotion to post in this situation... :-s

There's a lot more to say. Free speech, taking power from the word, weakening it, etc. I don't think so. It's derogatory term that insults lots of people around the world. I don't think it should be used, never mind the fact that it's going to be on a public album cover. So would you rather censor any derogatory terms? What about b**ch? Certainly there are more females than there are black people. Censoring one word only starts us (as a society) on a downward slope.

Sounds cool Chris. :)

I'll try. Wasn't aware you could download them. (I'd rather do that instead of having to search for the next EP between episodes). I think its a decently known anime... at least its gotten a few awards

^ I'm waiting for the 9000 series (built my PC few months ago) so I just sprung for the 7900GS as a temp card.

The brushing has some good depth in it. I think that sprite guy has been a bit overused though, but its not bad.

If he just wants to run music/runescape/internet/download large files he doesn't need much. Hell, a decent mid-range duo core intel processor, 2gig's of ram (4 is overkill) and a nice hard drive is it.

OC your video card maybe? :-k You think it'd help? If you're curious my specs are: CPU: Intel 2 Duo core 1.8ghz Mainboard: Nvida 660i Memory: 2GB DDR2 HDD: 360GB Video: Nvida Geforce 7900GS 256mb Sound: Onboard Power: 550W Thermaltank OS: Windows XP SP2 I personally think that the 256mb on the video card is hurting me the most, but maybe not.

We're just going in circles. The 360 pretty much matches (or goes slightly above) the PS3 if you get all of the additions to it. Seems fine to me. How does that have anything to do with what I'm talking about?

The bolded-italicized are all non-exclusive games or games that are a remake (see: Ninja Gaiden Sigma). I didn't bother looking for exclusives bellow 8.0 This leaves you with: Resistance: Fall of Man Modern First-Person Shooter 8.6 Movie Nov 14, 2006 Warhawk Sci-Fi Shooter 8.5 Screens Aug 28, 2007 DiRT Rally / Offroad Racing 8.5 Sep 11, 2007 Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection 3D Fighting 8.3 Mar 1, 2007 Virtua Tennis 3 Tennis 8.2 Mar 20, 2007 (exclusive?)

Out of those exclusives I (personally) am Interested in: Resistance Tekken 5 Warhawk So yes I know exactly what the current line-up is. You don't think I've done research on this?

Thanks defender. So I assume you're using stock cooling as well? :) I too am using the E6300 for the same reasons. Also, about dual core -- its two seperate processors working together. I.E a 2ghz dual core is two 2ghz processors, not one 4ghz. Obviously games that are made to run on dual core will be able to benifit from both cores, I.E have certain objects running off of one core and others off the other. You could have physics and such run on one core and AI running on another, as an example. I think I'll give some OCing a shot -- see if it helps.

thats not how dual core works. :) What kind of cooling are you using defender? I'm interested in OCing my processor. (1.8ghz dual core atm), but not sure if I could do it on stock cooling. #-o

My point is that the 360s price is too high for the features in it. Yet... it isn't. What? The only thing that would maybe take more wires would be the HD DvD player.... the wireless is just that -- wireless. :lol: GT5 I assume? Lets consider two things here. First, the game isn't out yet. Second, its a racing game. What that means is that cars are infinitely easier to make look realistic than organic things. At any rate: Picture Its from an older 360 game, however. I don't see any upcoming racing games really for the 360. None-the-less it does look good, I'll give you that. However I'd rather keep it to games such as MGS4 or those that feature more organic items throughout. I've done a list in the "PS3: Failure?" thread noting off the exclusives the PS3 has worth getting. Check it out. What kind of excuse is this? The reason why GTA IV was pushed back was because of the difficulties that came in for programming for a PS3. The reason why 360 players will have a better experience is because of downloadable content that won't be available on the PS3.

Watched the first episode of Mushishi couple days ago. It was pretty interesting, I loved the art style and the premise is pretty cool. Problem is only place I've seen to download it is off of megaupload which sucks -- only allows me to do like 1 download a day. #-o Anyone know anywhere better? :oops:

This one statement alone shows how ignorant you are.

Edguy- Navigator.

I'd love to get this, but I can't justify buying a Wii for it and possible a couple other games.
