Re: Flawless Widescreen

hi,
I searched and couldn't find any info as to how Fov fine adjustments work

sure I could just test it over & over until I figure it out

Re: Do not buy Split/Second for the PC.

I recently had the opportunity to play this game on a PS3 while we watched for my cousin's kid at his house & on PC

I must say if you want this game get it on console or at least on PS3 it is a lot better...
what annoyed me :
-not the 30 FPS cap, once in game I didn't feel it very much ...

Re: Alien Swarm - Steam Download - Free!

just wanted to correct myself on a couple of points

-lag full games still mean doom

Re: Alien Swarm - Steam Download - Free!

just tried out this game
while the experience in offline practice is just pure awesomeness (but rather shortlived)
online sucks big time as far as I'm concerned
it seems there's no ability to check out people pings before hand unless I missed something somewhere
therefore you stumble into a ...

Re: PCper Nvidia surround review with benchmarks vs. Eyefinity

I don't understand NL language that said only a quick look at the overall % difference between 3 way & 4 way doesn't show a clear advantage of 4 way over 3 way: with some instances where it's marginally better and others where it's marginally worse
that said 3 way seem to increase performance more ...

Re: Adding games to THE LIST needs to happen @ release

Just to chime in here, I am very hesitant to add any new or additional systems to the site. What we have works, we just need help to update it. Any new system would still require manpower to update.

If anyone wants to help update the Wiki, I would gladly accept your help.

Re: Adding games to THE LIST needs to happen @ release

I can't help much with detailed reports myself, since I never buy games on release and that's not gonna change any time soon (or ever for that matter)

Just in case there's ever a migration to a new system however, I could probably dedicate some time to help with data transitioning
