Steam and Portal 2 is going to be on PS3. :hyper
Sony conference was AWESOME!
Here's looking at you GT5 and PSP Support.
Australia got its first female Prime Minister today.
She is a ranga, and born over in pommy land.
Watching the latest update on tellie right now. Poor K-Rudd kinda feel sorry he got stabbed in the back.
Quite interesting. Still prob going to vote for the Liberals at this rate. Guess most West Aussies will be doing the same as well. Stupid massive mining tax.
Ill post my old crummy broadband i had during the golden years of WOHD

Now people should understand why i was MrCranky for such a long period of time. LOOK at the upload limit people, reason why i never had anything on my youtube channel for ages.
Ping isnt as near as bad as Gaz's net though.
lol, Kigo - you should have put up a before n after pic of your net speed, so we can see the difference.
Anyway, check it - one of my most favourite games of all time is coming to PS3. Deus Ex I played the hell out of it on the PS2, but man - I just saw the trailer for it on PSN store and it looks too good... tooo damn good to be true. Deus Ex is coming soon guys :g
I keep telling you, pick it up for the PC for pennies :)
Youll be laughing if you enjoyed it on the ps2 that much, it was shocking in comparison :g
I need a PC first :paperbag. My sister wont really let me use hers anymore (since I crashed it a few times - it's a dinosaur)
Think for now, I'll have to settle for the PS3 version. I want a PC now :(
I picked up Dark Void for 5 pounds haha, fun game! I want Blazblue soooooo badly :(.
Sundays: finished work at 6am, 1st bus back home 10.30am, last bus back to work 5pm and start at 6pm.
damn sundays :(
Broadband connection speed discussion moved to its own thread.

Cant find the bloody Top Gear thread anywhere. Im certain there was a top gear thread somewhere. Anyway i have watched the last couple of new episodes from this new season. Gotta say the content is quite good, and there still is heaps of life left in this tv series. There was even a car that reminded me of Yeldar in the last show. Citroën DS3 Racing edition. Ill link an image to this post to those who are not familiar with this car, and Gaz too. :p

Photoshopped picture!
The only version I watched of Top Gear was the UK version(ah,the controversies of Clarkson...) and I liked it...
I wonder...any of you have Adobe Creative Suite 5 (any version)?
:lol
No, no photoshopped picture there FEISAR, a prnt screen save from the last Top Gear episode from the VLC player i was watching it on, then i pasted it on MS paint then worked from it there. The pic is under the 50kb limit and Gaz is cool with the pic so SaturnReturn wont be crackin theshits with me about this.
Do you use Adobe Creative Suite 5 FEISAR? I really should upgrade my artistic skills to another more professional program, what would you recommend? i did use Corel DRAW 10 back in highschool, prob an ancient program now.
Getting it this Friday. Paid student pricing(I'm 14).Was originally intending to Photoshop pictures taken in WipEout HD for a "We Didn't Start the Flame War WipEout Rendition" video.I'm getting CS5 Design Premium.Will see progress and then advise you from there(I think).
You getting the academic edition of the software? awesome :)
Ive done that many crappy retail and hospitality jobs since high school, ive lost my touch from the skills of Corel DRAW i had back in the day. Really did enjoy using that software and doing projects and assignments with it. If you get Adobe Creative Suite 5 and CS5 Design Premium let me know how they go, if there good, that'll be the thumbs up for me to purchase the software. I think i should get back to my roots more often. Might look into doing a course in graphic design or something before i become an old fart and be over 30years old and still doing this same crummy same jobs. Hmmm thats got me thinking.
I forgot to clarify.It was not the academic version. I paid student pricing. Anyone here listened to "We Didn't Start the Flame War"?
i thought the academic version and the student one are both the same package and pricing.
Havent heard of "We didnt start a flame war". Got a link?
We Didn't Start the Flame War by collegehumor
Student pricing does not equal to academic version(I think)
according to eurogamer.net, Sony will release white ps3 with upgraded hd this month in japan.
here is the link if you are interested:

looks good imo but i would prefer a white or any other colour to be gloss.
i just hate matt colour. lol
no news if this will be released outside japan though.
i'm still hating Sony for not releasing the amazing limited edition white ps3 with lightning from ffxiii outside japan...
i'm tired of being treated like the last customer on earth...
hahahaha, lol. I remember that video now. Not sure where i saw it first though.
I bought Microsoft Office Project 2007 at academic price earlier on in the year. I think it was that option or the business option. I think student is the same as academic versions... i think. Not entirely sure myself.
Office 2010 was recently released. My school still uses 2003(really),which can lead to incompatability problems,since most of the students(I think) use 2007 or 2010(2003 saves in .doc,2007&2010 save in .docx).Same for the others.Am now waiting for my CS5 design premium and will try doing the"We Didn't Start the Flame War" WipEout rendition video....
Anyone of you used top-up cards before? I feel like spending 33S$ on Cherry Credits for an account upgrade on AdventureQuest.This is part of a dilemma of mine.
I'm gonna get killed by Rob and the moderators...
Whats new with the office 2010? Ive got a copy of 2007. Cant really see what they could put new in it, compared with 2003 vs 2007 just a bunch of additional poncy features thats about it. Oh yeah Word 2007 is a pain to open on anything made before that.

320GB PS3 in those images. In all honesty this new PS3 better have more RAM, Ive got an old school proper 60GB PS3 and its got a 500GB HDD in it, the XMB loads so loooooooooooooooong now since of the new HDD i put in it. PS3 struggles with it alot. Anything larger than 250GB you can noticed longer scrolling and loading times on the HOME XMB screen on the PS3.
I forgot until i went to my mates house the other day, that the original ps3 has slots for various different kinds of memory card!! How annoying! I could really use that.... :bomb
WOOHOO!!!
My sis passed yer 1st college year and even got a few merits :D
My Adobe CS5 Design Premium has arrived!
Will see how things go...
Hmmm... I'm pretty sure the PS3 wasn't ever desingned to take 500GB HDD. Too much stress on the processor and RAM to work fast enough will only serve to burn the compound off the processor, making it YLOD.... That's what went wrong with yours Kieran, probably !
This new 350GB console they're releasing, may just be the limit of what the PS3 can process within a reasonable time. And yeah, they need to increase that damn RAM :D
I think it was just Kigo being punished for throwing his controllers too much when playing Blur ;)
The PS3 feels their pain and wanted vengeance. After all, my 500GB is fine and dandy :g
*touches a whole forest*
Funny you mention the controller i damage on Blur a few weeks back Yeldar, i put it back together last monday, glued the sides in, still is the best working controller of the bunch. The old Sixaxis controllers are heaps more sensitive over the new DualShock3 controller, was using it to play WipeoutHD in the past few days before the YLOD.
Im being punished for using my PS3 for greater evil over the summer period, most of you folk prob know what i am talking about, karma does exist, this is a prime example.
I do know that Ace, thats why i havent opted to go over HDD size over 500GB, the PS3 RAM will just simply not take the added load. There are people out there with 640 and 750GB PS3s ive seen on other sites, even 1TB ones also!. So maybe the limit of the old PS3's is 160GB and the limit of the slims is 320GB before they start having issues. My PS3 has done me good since 2007 i appreciate it for its good times ive had with it.
The new slim model isnt 350gb Ace, its 320, just looked at the link on the other thread.
This is why my PS3 overheated. all the thermal connections on the PS3 have baked to ****! that is what Australian summer do best. Check out this photo:
Here is a photo of what the inside of my PS3 is like:
I dont know if you can see how royally stuffed the thermal connections are, it looks like building plaster tbh, only could use this 50kb size.
Talking 'bout "faulty" consoles and handhelds,I used to have an Xbox(the original one)that I played a lot when I got it and it slowly declined when I got the DS and the PSP(1000 model).Few years after I got the Xbox,when I powered up the console,the thing took ages to load,so much so it was practically unplayable! Since the "faulty" Xbox was now of no use to me,I took(some of)it apart.Got out the harddrive.That was basically what I did.
Why has the entire South East of England turned into an oven? It's so darn hot here, even at night. I want the winter back :cold
Lol, I think it's awesome. Beer festival down my local as well ^_^
I don't mind a bit of heat, but it's been like it for 3 weeks now. There's only so many times you can sit in the garden and go to the beach. Bring on the rain!
You can have your weather back I'm over it.
Must of got the wrong address, it's cold enough to freeze the nuts off a penguin in Sydney at night, and has been raining for 6 out of 8 weeks.:cold:cold
The worse thing is that they have just increased the price of electricity, again, this time by 30%, so if I put on the electric heater [it chews 3000 watts] I might as well be burning $20 notes.
Christ it's like being in Manchester :frown:, depressing, no wonder those little shits from Oasis were such miserable bastards.
****ed if im having the heat back. I hated every day of it, the flies, the heat, the flies, the heat, oh yeah, did i mention the flies?
You poms can keep it for a couple of years. Sleeping in this weather is heaps better than those sleepless nights in summer time.
3.18am, been a good night (2 fit girls number! haha!), but me thinks its time for sleep! get involved when im online tomorrow,making a sick wo video! laters people! :beer
Thermal paste doesn't just suddenly evaporate :S
Yeah it looks like Kigo's chip got a minimum allowance of thermal paste when it was built, especially around one area, surprised it hasn't failed from overheating way before this.
Easy enough to rectify, if that's all that's need though I doubt it, damage might of been done.:frown:
