    ATI voucher given silver??

    checked this, same with my account; but right-click on hl:s and dod:s shows "pre-order"; so everything is fine(or its not, depends).

    Bloody Hell! SIX INSTALLATION CD'S?!

    hm. as you stated, they looked like regular audio-tapes.. cartdriges, do you mean stuff like those glorious qic80-tapes? loved them; a shame that the drives went broken to fast(had around 4 iomega qic120 drives).

    Bloody Hell! SIX INSTALLATION CD'S?!

    yeah, a friend of mine had cpc464. which had an built in datasettes drive. and he used audio-cassettes instead of datasettes. cheaper but sometimes kind of erratic.

    Bloody Hell! SIX INSTALLATION CD'S?!

    wasn't it datasettes? i had a schneider/amstrad cpc 664 with 3" disks(writable on each side), my 1st hc was a c16.

    What do you think will be the gore factor of Half-Life 2?

    oh yeah, carmageddon was bloody(and funny) as ...(insert something very funny and bloody here). voted 5, as blood isnt the same as blood(same to limbs).

    What's the actual date for release next week?

    exuses to all non-native-german speakers ich hatte anno dazumal in der schule ne recht albackene lehrerin im deutsch-gk(eine von denen mit ausgepraegten korrekturzwang), die hat mir das damals so beigebracht. seitdem halte ich mich daran. also wenn ich am samstag "ich habe kommende woche...

    What's the actual date for release next week?

    hm, work week. makes sense. but isn't this interesting(like differences in week definition). @pixartist: "kommende" and "naechste" week isn't the same; it depends completely on your position in the actual week.

    Half-Life 2 definatly before 10/24/04?

    perhaps they are allowed to release bloodlines if a defined date(an estimated release-date for hl2) has passed. btw, hl2 is not one of those games which must be released near x-mas to get most out of the sales.

    What's the actual date for release next week?

    okay, this is strange: "ISO 8601 (1973) defines monday as the start of the week, which applies to most of the western countries. [...] another bulk of western countries(especially north america) start their week with sunday, which is based on the jewish/islamic tradition(7th day = day of...

    What's the actual date for release next week?

    even in the us a week starts with monday and ends with sunday. it all bases on the "god does some stuff the first 6 days and become lazy on the 7th".

    *Sigh* Is it just me, or are other games less fun while waiting for HL2?

    do you play as on of the imperial factions or do you play a "barbaric" nation? in the beginning it was fun, war with the greek, somehow the macedonias get annoyed and layed siege on my agaean cities, then those egyptians tried to get their peace of their valium-pie too. conquering those three...

    What Will Happen After Gold?

    even if you get your hands on a copy of hl2, you wouldnt be able to play it as long it isnt be activated. perhaps one of the first games which wont be released by a "third party retailer" a couple of days before the official release. wait, wasn't it released more then a year before the official...

    *Sigh* Is it just me, or are other games less fun while waiting for HL2?

    yeah, dow is great(as i stated above). still a little bit unbalance,, but sill great. got more adrenaline in my veins during a dow online battle then in a doom3-match. after playing rome the 2nd day i become a little bit bored. had tons of money, fighting wasn't even necessary; bribed each...

    *Sigh* Is it just me, or are other games less fun while waiting for HL2?

    i'd prefer to play warhammer40k, dow. havent had this fun in rts since a while, some balancing probs, but still great. tried rome: total war too, but this is to boring for me. nevertheless, civ3 and gotm's are allways a good try.

    ATI coupon - Am I in trouble?

    yeah, there are some strange statement on the official ati-voucher site so me avoided to register it there completly. perhaps i'll register and send in my stuff after ive played trough hl2 several times, just to be on the safe side :-). perhaps i'm kind'o paranoic.

    PC Gamer UK Score

    those rating-criterias suck. they should establish sort of relational gaming currency. for example: doom 1=1fps(1 graphics, 1 audio, 1 gameplay,1 story) dune 1=1rts(...) leathergodessesfromphobos=1adv(...) now each game should be rated in their appobiate "genre-currency". for...

    Half-Life 2 Soundtrack CD

    after the release of hl2 the cache files will be decrypted, so burning the ost on your own shouldnt be a (major) problem. or play without sound effects and record "what you hear".:-) ive got a lot of game-ost's around here, but rarely listened to even one of theme. after hours of gameplay...

    ATI coupon - Am I in trouble?

    sort of. if you register your voucher fast enough, you will get the back-catalogue(minus cs:cz, and which is nothing i would ever allow to waste my hd-space) too, so the things you wont have is dod:s(which will take a very long time to be finished, according to their faq) and hl:s(which isn't...
