Great!

But will it be better than "The haunted mansion"?

Is anyone willing to give a brief synopsis of the trailer for those of us on dial-up?

I'd eat a human if it was in the name of science. Or some sort of reality TV gameshow.

Hello!

Dredd: Wow! Is Richard Elson trying harder or what? Brilliant. Morrison cannot write Dredd well. Also: There's no way Justice Department would waste resources keeping a brain-dead women alive, after all they routinely euthanise the elderly.

5/10

Red Seas: Mad, but good. I've tried not to like this series but it's hard to resist it's rogueish charm.

7/10

Leatherjack: This is rubbish. Sorry, but it's just a load of rubbish. The plot is senseless and at the end of 18 episodes I'm left wondering "What was the point?". A few good ideas but no substance.

2/10

Sinister/Dexter: Hope they die. I... enjoying?

?

I didn't think A tale of two sisters was very good. Towards the end everything got very silly.

Not accurate to the film then?

Hahahaha!

Still has the same icon!

I'm playing:

Prince of persia: Sands of time
Advance wars 2
Fire emblem (GBA version)
Neverwinter nights (also trying to make my own crappy module using the cool editor)
Warioware inc. Still.
And Nethack. Always.

Hi Tanky!

I'm back too, but I have to go now.

In my opinion Al Ewings Terror Tale is worth the price of admission alone.

The rest of the stuff is somewhat shaky but it had a kind of raw energy that I liked, and - for better or worse - there were some really original ideas in there. Hope this becomes a yearly tradition.

postscript: The painted art was GORGEOUS. I thought it was Greg Staples for a moment.

Thanks for the advice WoD. I'll give that a try and see if things work out ok.

Feckin' dial up connection...

It's a 6200 if I recall correctly.

As regards drivers, I'm not sure where to get them. Checked their website but no luck.

But mine has a big number after it! It shouldn't be out of date for at least a month!

I recently purchased a brand new and fancy computer. having wanted one for about seven years or so I feel quite pleased.

As far as I could tell, my computer should run most any game available but, to my frustration this doesn't appear to be the case. For some reason I cant run certain games without turning down the graphical settings (and with others I dont even get the option of turning them down), as a result they look - to put it bluntly - totally shite.

Unfortunately I know very little about graphics cards and so I need to consult the experts. If you can tell me what I need to do to make my games pretty then please do so.

MY PC

Processor: Over 3 gig.
Ram: Over a gig.
Hard Drive: Over 300 gig.

Graphics card: nVidia GeForce 256 MB.

I'm running Deus Ex 2 and I had to lower the resolution and turn off most of the effects. Far Cry wont run unless everything is turned down.

Bizarrely Prince of Persia: Sands of time and Splinter Cell: Pandora tomorrow both look great despite the fact that I got a message from both saying they might not even run!

Any advice on graphics cards would be welcome. Sorry to go on for so long.

How are all of yiz anyway?

Is it just me or does the robot in that picture look like an irate Italian?

"Mama Mia! Why you kill-a da Norts Rafe?!"

Actually that's probably just me alright.
