Are you sure it's the hard drive itself that's broken? I remember yates' was broken, but the actual hard drive still worked and he recovered it all.

I left it downloading last night and it was pretty cool. Not sure if I'll buy it though, because I still haven't finished the darkness.

I just finished the side mission where you have to get a suitcase. I play the game off and on, but the one thing that really pisses me off is the aiming system. I can't seem to get the sensitivity just right :mad:

You got xbox live? my tags wjdc if you want to add me.

Does anyone know a way I can store like all of my pictures and office documents outside of the computer so I can access them again and keep them safe. I'm paranoid about losing all my files I so dearly love.

Just got done playing the Bioshock demo. My erection still hasn't subsided. I suggest anyone with a 360 downloads it and plays it. It's so amazing.


I love it too, the water effects are pretty surreal. I might buy it if I can't rent it.

Taking ages to download for me :(

Does anyone else listen to music with their headphones on their PC, stop the music, keep the headphones on for the rest of the night, like 5 hours or something, forget they're there and get hurting ears?

I know I do.
post #19,071
14 August 2007, 22:48 UTC#19,071
I've done that before. Not the hurting ears part, but just having the headphones on for an extended amount of time without anything coming out of them.

14 August 2007, 23:51 UTC#19,079
To be completely honest played it a while ago so know a rough pattern of where the keys are! I type like a daemon anyways and can touch type and type with my eyes closed or looking away or whatever and even delete errors! I'm a geek, but I also play rugby so don't mess yo.
