AMD was always the better choice for gaming, but Intels Core 2 Duo easily beat out and AMD there is currently.

It is impossible to make a proper Sims game. There can ALWAYS be something to be improved. Sims 1, when it came out, everyone loved it. After a while, it got boring, and all those expansions came out. Once again, people got bored of that. They release Sims 2, which lasted longer than Sims 1, but still people got bored, and yet more expansions needed to be made. You see, the tastes of people over time become more and more picky, meaning they want more things. Frankly, Sims 2 was decent, but once you get successful the game lag is horrible, and that's even when you have a good computer. I liked in Sims 1 that it always ran smooth. Who cares that you can't zoom in and out freely, rotate freely, and make only 2 stories. The simplicity kept a bad computer from lagging. Sims 3, if they ever make that, should come in 2 disks. 1 disk which is the style of Sims 1, so that it doesn't lag. Low time computers. The 2nd disk which is the style of Sims 2, high end computers. That gives more popularity, because many people cannot buy Sims 2 due to the lag and system specs.

The 8800GTX for sure. 9800 PROs are old and outdated, 8800GTX is currently the best card out there, but remember, if you have a poor computer, your system will bottleneck it, making it slower than its full potential. But really, both companies are good, just some are better in their own special ways

This idea is actually pretty good! The game company could easily add difficulty levels, per say:Rookie - -80% Citizen CorruptionEasy - -50% Citizen CorruptionMedium - Normal Citizen CorruptionHard - +20% Citizen CorruptionOf course, these would have more to it. This game would require a lot of strategy, as you'll have to manage a city, plus an entire military. It'll teach you organization skills and how to manage more than one thing at a time. For example, your city is growing quickly, requiring constant attention, and all of a sudden you're attacked. At first, you won't know what to do, but after a while you'll become used to it and be able to do both at the same time.To add this idea, a Drafting System. Considering you have a city, and a military, sometimes you'll need to draft a few people. Conscripts, half regular health, but strong in large numbers. A lot of those and you could turn the tide of a battle. To top it off, you also need to keep your people happy, to prevent them from causing a racket and sabotaging your military possessions. All in all, after changing a few problems, this could really turn out good.

I don't play paintball, and I really want to try it out. What certain skills are required?

Top 5 for me. I still haven't finished The Traveler, but it's really great.

FSX isnt that great, but fs2004 is an awesome sim!

Heres my basic guide to starting upWhere it shows uranium (green thing), it says "Extract". You should click that whenever you see it, because uranium is an important resource on Reign. Then you should build a powerplant. Once it's done, buy 9 land, and build 3 towns. Also before doing that, theres a thing called "Nation Specialization" You should have a few points, and spread them out along the top row of the Industry section. Do not put them in Military. Once you get 3 towns, make another 3. Then save up for a city, when you have enough, get 5 cities, and get a metropolis when you have the money. Also try to get into an alliance Hope this helps.

Yeah its an awesome game, which is very much worth trying

Considering I was born in Ukraine, I was raised speaking Russian, so Im very fluent in that language IMO it would pretty hard to learn after speaking English lol. Oh and btw, poor/bad isn't ploka its ploha

Im not encouraging people to use my referral link, im trying to get people to play this game. =/

So if any of you are looking for a great way to have some fun, you should play 48's Reign. It is a text-based strategy/war game. You pick a nation, build cities, people move in, and you get money When you think you can take our another nation, you declare war on them, and you use bombers or soldiers to take their land . Then you can get into good alliances, and work together for WORLD DOMINATION! At the end of the round, the player with the most land wins, and gets a special medal. I've been playing Reign for a year, and have won once, and got second place once too. And a lot of other simmers play to.

What an idiot. Could have just waited to get it for $600.

My friend is going to the Wii launch party, so hes getting a Wii today at midnight. Means ill be able to play it next week! Woot

Did the card have any overheating issues?

The first thing you should do is upgrade to XP. Win98 is a hackers dream with all its security flaws. Then Id download Zone Alarm. Ive been using it for quite a bit and I love it.

I LOVE FF2. The spell checker is awesome, and the new features are sweet. Only thing I dont like is that the close tab thingy on each tab, a bit harder than where it used to be. Well otherwise its awesome!

The system wont let me transfer files either...

Id rather get a PS3 or Wii because they werent as rushed as the Xbox 360, and likewise, they are going to have better hardware, especially the PS3 with the Ageia PhysX and Blu-Ray.

Back when I had Norton, my compouter would take 30 minutes minimum to shut down. I noticed something was wrong, but couldnt exactly what was wrong. So one day, I decided to dump Norton for Avast, and my computer started shutting down normally. So it might be how many programs Windows needs to close, try to cut down on them.

Way back when, people lived fine without internet. I dont see why we wouldnt be able to survive without it. The internet has had a negative affect on our health. Look at all those fat kids everywhere, eating, and doing nothing but internet/internet based games. So IMO I think I would live fine without the internet.

I prefer both rap and rock.

Looks like hes going to be hanged. Although, I think they should have put him in the middle of a street and let the Iraqis unleash all their anger on him.

I have to agree, the PSP clearly pwns the DS. I have one myself and can do tons of things on it like playing mp3s watching videos, internet browsing, and most importantly playing games. The PSPs graphics are awesome, and the stuff it can do is awesome too

I use avast. It finds most viruses, and doesnt slow down my computer like Norton.
