FC - ROB IS GOING

Update
Mrs is well enough to last today and then going to her Mum's tomorrow. We're back to Plan A - Pete, come down to mine and we'll pick up Evil en route.


Kate is ill. I might not be able to go because there is no-one to look after her and the boy.

I hope this is fake, although I doubt it.

Lenovo HTPC looking like what I wanted a year ago

The WD TV Live is great but I must admit wanting a little more. This Lenovo Ideacentre thingy looks like the sort of sit-by-the-tv PC that I need. It's not cheap but now Lenovo has done it, I hope others will join in.

Martial Arts: Capoeira on the PC

One for Simpson for sure!

Graphics Card - Anyone got a spare

I'm looking at building a new machine next week as the one I have is getting a bit old in the tooth, the only problem is based on the limited budget I could use a "free" graphics card. Anyone got anything I can use? I will replace it proberly next month but for the meantime anyone got anything I can borrow?

[yt]minecraft 360 video

theres a load of rubbish from the microsoft rep but after that there is a funny video with the mojang guys playing the xbox 360 version of minecraft

Plan to build first petrol station on the moon

By 2020? That's daring.

FISHCON - DOWNLOAD BURNOUT PARADISE FOR FREE. NOW.

It prolly won't last long but we should totally play this at FC, it's a hilarious open world "racer" with silly speeds, mega crashes and not particularly realistic physics. What's more, you can set up challenges such as "Most air" or "Longest drift". Loads of racing playability.

You need Origin to download DO IT NOW.

People not checking this site? RIGHT. Email it is.

Minecraft 1.0 - featuremungous!

1.0 looks like one hell of a jump up. There are loads of features coming up, some of the biggies from the way I play the game are:

  • The ability of Endermen to carry blocks will be reduced in some way - no more having to repair shit all the time.

Battlefield 2: Project Reality Mod.

Have any of you played this epic mod? I discovered it recently and am addicted.

It is a whole new method of playing FPSs for me. The cooperation and team working leads to whole new level of awesome.

The learning curve is epic. Eve online levels of steep.
