it may come to that pc's are cheaper than consoles. and most defienitely faster. you can get a decent sempron cpu as low as 50$ or intel's pentium/celeron equivalent, galaxy 7300gt ddr3 is like 70-80$ low, and memory 1gb like 50$, hard drives, psu, and you can have a fast pc for as low as 300-400$, which will likely be better than wii or even xbox 360 (if you overclock your machine). i know that it isn't the same, playing on pc's is quite different than playing on a console, but some games like fps are defienitely more enjoyable. and when you play you can download movies, music, other games, your two thread cpu would never get borred. Also Intel will come with conroe which will be even better (up to 30% faster than x2, and up to 100% faster than pentium d). Nvidia will come with new gpu's. All this will make gaming on pc more enjoyable. For quite a long time Sony tries to make PS a computer, but the difference beetween PC and PS is easily seable. PS3 may push the limits, but it won't have even directx 10, so bye bye sony. Every playstation had something new to offer, psone had cd rom capability and was offering 3d graphics, pstwo had dvd movie player. But what has to offer ps3? Blu-ray? Online gaming? I'm not quite sure it's gonna make the pressure from M$ x360 dubbled by Ninny's Wii. So maybe pc's gonna take the 1st place in gaming world? Vista is so user friendly that it's gonna take seconds to play your favorite game. It also will allow to play with friends on xbox360. I think that m$ may win the battle in the long run. And irronicaly xbox360 may boost pc's (and vista, the upcoming m$ operating system). the only factor that makes console gaming so easy is their cost and simplicity. But PC's can be a lot more fun to play (for example in first person shooter). Myself i find that oblivion is more enjoyable on pc than xbox360, also there are many exclusive pc games, like half-life: episode one. There are drawbacks of pc gaming: the cost of a computer. But when you build the pc from the parts yourself, it ain't so expensive, also the prices are going down all the time, you can go low-end and sell the parts once a year, you will lose maybe 20% of their price. Keep in mind that games on the pc are cheaper than on consoles (even more cheaper when compared with bluray games for the upcoming ps3).to sum it up: i think that pc will win the battle with it's upcoming interoperatobality with xbox360 and windows vista (with it's groundbraking directx 10), it will definiately rock the gaming world!(sorry for the bad spelling, i'm from poland )

yeah nazi's go to home!!!

i liked the orginal, and i'm gonna see the sequel of course, but now everyone watches world cup, so there is not much time for going to cinema.are there any good visual effects in the movie?

talk about yourself man... if you do something because you are afraid of god, that doesn't mean everyone is doing such thing...

go away man amd has already beaten intel in terms in overall price / quality / performance ratio! damn those people, if you don't know - don't say it! it's like saying "Intel is always better and i don't give a f*ck if it's slower and more expensive than AMD." conroe may change many things, but we can't say intel is better than amd, that's just unfair... ever heard of opteron man??? amd doesn't make server cpu's??? itanium 2 the best server processor????? what did you smoke that day people if you're so opiniated don't talk, because it ain't even funny... amd doesn't make server cpu's hahahaha...

it's a nice game, but as i can see not a lot people played it, even so you can talk about it in this thread, let's make it an official thread about the game

what you cannot reach with mind? existence of god, universe creation? about this two things we can only speculate, every other thing is reachable. so i think you should not think of a price factor of progress, but about evolution factor of progress. if you start thinking about what can be done - you will have small number of ideas. if you think about things you shouldn't do - you will find many illegal/immoral in some way things. the point is to keep ratio beetween evolution and tradition, because if you think only about evolution you gonna take yourself to the straight edge of thinking - ie. the revolution. A we all know one thing about the revolution - it eats it's own children.so i think the price of the progress is unmeasurable, simply unmeasurable

Price/power ratio of pc's is better than mac's, albeit apple support is better than dell or hp.

Prey demo is out! Full game coming July 10, 2006!!! Here's basic info about the game: [source: wikipedia.org] Notice from serverph: quote tags added as needed. Some screens: [source:pclab's forum] Demo download links: http: https://3drealms.com/ torrent: http://www.mininova.org/get/347286 My opinion: The demo offers one hour off excellent imho gameplay. The story is quite interesting and psychedelic. You see the action like in Half-Life or Riddick, ie. there's no animated cut-scenes. There's multi also, but the game is best when played in single. Well, if someone played it - express your opinion!

Any about Gulag's and Holocaust/WWII are good lecture.The best book i've read this year is Gustaw Herling-Grudzinski's "A World Apart".

at it's base it's almost the same: don't kill don't stole believe in god etc. etc. Yes, and they have a completly different culture. Also they have time to read holy texts, where people on the west don't have much free time. Also they should stop reading so much Qur'an (vide World Trade Center catastrophe).

well that's not enterily true, to some extend it is possible to decompile/dissassemble .NET applications using IL Dissasembler and some other tools (http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/). I suppose it would be easier to decompile .NET applications than normal C++/C, because it doesn't encorporate it's runtime with exe's. I'm not a programmer, so i may be wrong.

Damn and you are happy with such a unnatural life? Whole live comes from sexuality, every thing (yeah, i believe in freudism). If you live in sexual abstynency you almost aren't living. Are you even allowed to think about women?

you can't be forced directly, but from child you are grown in some culture and culture is always in some ways connected to religion. also ateism is form of religion you could say (from which marxism or communism based upon).
