    Auto Assault Drives off into the Sunset

    Depressing. AA was a great game, but no one gave it a chance. Such is the way of most new MMO's though, since WoW is completely hogging the market.

    Buying a car from a different Country?

    I'm quite certain you cleared up any doubts I had. It's just not worth the time and hassle to worry about getting a car at a lower price from the US. I did hear about some MR2s not being allowed to come into Canada. Too bad, they are great cars. They look more like a Porsche than a Toyota...

    Buying a car from a different Country?

    Hi all, I plan to buy my first car in the spring, and am looking at my options. I live in Canada, and cars in the US are much cheaper, even after the conversion rate. Why they cost far more up north, I have no idea why, but it sucks. Generally, cars in Canada can cost upwards of 25% more than...

    Spire SP-ATX-600W Power Supply

    If you look around you'll find that there are more brands of power supplies than you can shake a stick at. Some of them are really good while others aren't even worth being hit with the aforementioned stick. Does the Spire Rocketeer IVSP-ATX-600W fall into the first or second category? Read on...

    Toledo cops begin selling ads on police cruisers

    The Toledo, Ohio police department needs to replace about 100 of its 140-car fleet at a time when money's tight. When budget deficits are forecast, getting funds can be a challenge, and that's what led the Toldeo department to offer cruiser sponsorships. In exchange for $15,000, the cars will...

    Transformers, should be rated "P-B4-C"

    I've always put Transformers in the game category as Star Wars, Star Trek and Dungeons and Dragons. Maybe I have things all wrong. I will consider seeing it in theaters since you highly recommend it, but if not, I will definitely see it once it hits disc.

    Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R

    Gigabyte, like others, released a slew of motherboards utilizing Intel's P35 chipset when it was first announced. The P35C-DS3R is unique to their line-up though, since it will accept both DDR2 and DDR3 memory. We pit the boards performance using both types of memory against our recently...

    Mobile gaming preferences

    I am not one to talk, but I'll chime in. I believe neither console is that good when looking at the big picture. The DS is the better of the two for the sole fact that it has a wide selection of good games. On the other hand, developers love being douchebags and split the gameplay over both...

    iPhone thoughts

    The iPhone is more than just a DS with a few minor add-ons, so that's not an appropriate comparison. The iPhone is more like a PDA, with built-in map software, MP3 player, video player, phone, calender, note-taking, web browsing and so-forth. Like other PDA's, it has numerous features that one...

    And so I get satellite internet...

    For $80, they give you 20MB? What is this, 1995? I agree with Nate, the Silver might be a good place to start, just to see how things play out. I'd be wary about entering a long contract as well. Bear in mind that Silver is about 10x the speed of Dial-Up, which you have been using now for many...

    iPhone thoughts

    I love the iPhone. I was so tired of reading about it, that I actually spent near the entire day off the computer, it was fantastic. God what it feels like to actually go outside once in a while. Great stuff! Seriously though. Reading through my RSS feeds yesterday of about fifty websites...

    Reproted Illegal Tatics

    AMD is not selling a lot of CPU's simply because Intel's are better, that's all there is too it, really. If AMD released a CPU to trample over the C2D, you can be sure you'd see a complete vice versa. If AMD put as much effort into their CPU's as they do whining about the competition, maybe we'd...

    Spice Girls Reunited

    I agree about Posh... it's how she is. She wants to completely disregard what it was that skyrocketed her fame over in Europe and somewhat in the US. She's incredibly stuck up, so it's no wonder she looks annoyed in the picture. She probably doesn't want to "lower" herself to this level again...

    Spice Girls Reunited

    Will Spice Girls fans hear what they really, really want? The 1990s girl group announced Thursday that they'll get back together for 11 shows to take place around the globe during December and January. I for one cannot wait... to see Greg's ecstatic face when he sees this thread...
