    Re: What PC games do you people currently play?

    I got Steam so I'm usually playing Source Games like the Half-Life series (I get a real kick out of the sound effects now wit a mod I use) or otherwise I'm playing my older DOS games like Mystic Towers or BioMenace.
    Find Nedry!

      Re: What PC games do you people currently play?

      I don't play, I have no time, but my children play old games:

      Revolt
      Drakan
      Rayman2
      Legoracers

      They come from a collection CD called Twilight, I can't remember how I got it.
      I have played a lot with Drakan because my children weren't able to solve the game.

          [QUOTE=momaka]Windows games are cool, especially when you're just waiting for something and have a minute or two.
          as momaka points out, i will play solitare or spider solitare when waiting for a d/l to complete. other than that none, besides my grandson plays enough to make up for both of us, hehe. cheers

            Close enough.

            In fact, I still have the map I created for Microsoft Adventure. It took forever to map out the maze, but I have a working map of that one. (I still have the program, too).

            The Infocom games were neat because the parser was very smart. It understood compound sentences and innuendo. Very clever.

                    Wow! and here I thought that I might have forgotten something.

                    Actually, I did forget about the seat fluff. oops.

                    Have fun,

                      Eh, GTA SA graphics are fine in my book. For me, that game is all about the gameplay, the great radio stations, and just the fact that in between missions you can run around wreaking havoc and chaos like there's no tomorrow.

                      Also one hell of a fun game from 1999: Re-Volt.
                      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Re-Volt

                      I've only played the Dreamcast version, and that was 7 years ago when I was a fifth grader. Downloading the PC version as we speak. Hopefully the PC version will be as fun as I remember the Dreamcast version being.

                        Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from butcher bay is a really fun game with a good story line and doesn't take much hardware to run. Graphics are pretty good, too. Very violent and gory though. All the more fun.

                            I mostly play C&C 3, Star Wars: Empire at War and sometimes, Red Alert 2 (part 3 is crap). I also download and try most of the latest FPS and RTS games. I have over 150 of these downloaded games (they take up most of my 2 TB diskspace).

                              Back in high school, I used to play Linerider in some of my classes. People were always staring in my screen because I could make double-loops in that game and the little kid with the sled would always go through them successfully.

                                    Mostly Left 4 Dead when I have the time but the influx of noobs in that game is killing it for me.
                                    Elements of the past and the future combining to make something not quite as good as either.

                                        That sounds like a recipe for mid-air collisions!!!!!

                                        As for me I've tried quite a few recently:

                                        F.E.A.R. ==> Scary as shit!!!! I only played it during the day time.
                                        Far Cry
                                        Far Cry 2 ==> It got real boring pretty fast with all the exploring.

                                          I don't game that often. Don't get time. When I do, it's usually Flight Simulator X. At the moment, I've only got the demo but have ordered the full version. I get around the demo time limit by saving it (:/; key) just before it runs out!
                                          I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

                                          No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

                                            Xbox Series X - crashing to dashboard shortly after launching games
                                            by survivalbloke
                                            Hey all! I've got a XBOX Series X which came in with the complaint of games crashing to the dashboard after launch. I've tested a few games so far. Red Dead Redemption I observed will load up fine and sit on the menu no problem, but once I actually load into the world, it will not complete the load-in, and crash, stating something about an error must be sent to Rockstar, etc.. Truck simulator seemed to work fine. Minecraft loaded up and zoned into a world, but within a few seconds, it too, crashed to the dashboard. Where are the logs stored? What should I check?​

                                            Sonos Play 1 pulsing power supply
                                            by Goldwing1973
                                            I'm rather new to repairing electronics, i do know the basics of most components but never actually repaired a PCB, but i want to change that.
                                            So, i bought a faulty Sonos Play 1 speaker with the intention of finding the fault, and replace the damaged part.
                                            Well, i did find the fault, i replaced parts that i thought caused the problem, but no-go.

                                            The problem is a pulsing power supply, when i connect the mains to the board and hook up my thermal cam i see R306,307 and 308 getting warm, but i assume that's normal.
                                            But, whats is not normal is the pulsing of resistor...

                                            Hello there,

                                            ps5 cfi-1016a disk console
                                            Problem: ps5 shuts down when playing ps4 games after cold boot with error code ce-108262-9.
                                            After the shut down the console boots up normal and then the ps4 game functions without a problem.
                                            ps5 games run allways without any problems after cold boot.
                                            Thats absolutely curious....

                                            I have already rebuild database, clean cache and reinstall latest firmware with usb stick in safe mode.
                                            That doesen´t help
                                            Furthermore i have opened console and renew liquid metal on gpu.
                                            This all doesn´t...
