@ space station: sold it for vodka didnt you? we used to play halo like crazy my first semester at college since on our floor we had 2 ppl with xboxes and they were insane snipers. we would have CTF 4 on 4 matches that would last hours. we'd start around like 11 or 12 am and sometimes go till like 3 am!
jon pick up an Nvidia GeForce 7600GT, theyre like $140 or so and they're deffinately worth it. im running one now and its really good. it plays UT2004 pretty well, havent tried doom3 yet though

never really had one, it was my roommates. he bought the game played it for like a week then he said he can own any one of us. little did he know space station used to be obssesed with CS, and UT and constantly played those games when he was a kid. First time we played i pwnt his ass 20 to 2 :lol: his two kills came from sniping my ass across the field. eventually he got better but he never beat me, even when i was plastered i still owned his ass :rofl: he was not a happy camper...
Im not a nvidia fella... i got my 256MB Raedon X700XL pretty cheap and no problems yet.
I actually still play Quake3 alot too... I dont brag but I was at least one of the best instagibbers on teh net. With 16 players, 50 Frags Max per map and I was there within 2 minutes :-D ... I was never into Gaylo 1 or 2 :lol: If anybody wants to set something up with UT2004, BF1942, RTCW or BF2 lemme know!!!

i def. say we set up a 2004 game..... wolfenstein anyone? :lol: i dont really have any other FPS games besides UT, old wolfenstein, new(er) wolfenstein, all the doom games and UT 2004. but if someone wants to give me a copy of something else i'd be glad to play it :D
the one thing i severly dislike about UT2004 is the new sniper rifle, it sucks more dick then jenna jameson :lol: its soooooo slow now, nearly impossible to multikills or the like. but then again the new facing worlds kicks major ass :drool:

It's so easy in that map that you can't be chastised for it....
- Justin
I have areas in every map where I rotate spots. I dont really camp, cuz your just asking to get shot one way or another, and the opponent is just gonna look in the same spot every chance he gets.
And yes, Im down for UT2004 also
*EDIT* I like the "low gravity" setting. :-D

i never really got into those C&C type games, although i did buy a game like that , it was made by MS and called impossible creatures. kinda cool game. you would mix different body parts of different animals, the only ****** thing was you could only have 50 creatures "alive" at once

ahh i figured u already had it installed, yea the same with mine but i got pissed off and made it into a dvd. all you have to do is make a containing folder for it then copy the contents of each cd into the folder and it works fine. at the end it will ask u to insert the game cd and when you do ti wont recognize it (atleast thats how it works with me) then you just hit cancel and it says that the game wasnt installed correctly and all this ********. then you double click ply ut2004 and it works.... imagine that :lol:
AOE2 was pretty sweet... actually I think I still have it installed.
Brando56894
05-22-2006, 04:44 PM
i have that somewhere, the guy that created the 2gb add-ons pack sent me a copy of that and i sent him a copy of impossible creatures. whats funny is i dont think we ever played either of those online like we were supposed to
I've played AOE2 online a few times against some of my friends WAAAY back in the day. Turks FTW
Off the C&C ******** ... it gets bad when you've played BF1942 + BF2 so much you actually acknowledge peoples questions in "Affirmative" or "Negative" form :-D

Liz FTW!! me and my friend angelo used to play them together constantly. i think we beat the first one like 10x or something. we unlocked all of the secrets. i think our quickest time was around 9 hours. MGS2 was alright, didnt really like how u played as raiden instead of snake most of the time. although the story line was pretty good, definately had a good twist at the end :D MGS3 was pretty cool. me and my roommate rented it last year and he beat it before i did so i never really had the drive to finish it myself. the ending of it was awesome. definately a kick ass story line. i think i had the best one outta all three

you wouldnt be downgrading so to speak, you'd be running 98 inside of XP (i know upon hearing that your non-nerd brain is about to explode so ill take it slow :lol: ) vmware is a program that lets you run other operating systems inside of another operating system. its actually pretty easy. all you have to do is download the program, ill give you the serial number for it, then you get a copy of 98 and install it like you normally would.
any yes xp is newer but idk if i would say better :lol:
why old games dont work on 2000/xp/2003 is that back in the day there were two different "types" of windows. the version that was used in homes and the version that was used in businesses (such as NT4) they worked off of different technologies and supported different things. now the did away with the "home" version of windows and made everything the "business" version. 2000, xp and 2003 are based off of NT4 (xp is actually NT 5)
is there AvP for XP? :lol:

is there AvP for XP? :lol:
I figured we could try AvP2. It was made in 01 so if it's made for ME then it could work with XP as well. I find it strange that an old program won't work with XP, i thought that the newer windows could run all programs that worked on any windows before it. I'm gonna see if I can find AvP2: Gold Edition somewhere and I'll give it a shot and if it works, I'll see if I can't find a way to hook you guys up with it somehow and we could have a LAN party with that! Preds FTW!!!!!!!!!!!
EDIT: Just checked AvP planet, AvP2: Primal Hunt (the expansion pack included in AvP2: Gold Edition) says "Minimum System Requirements: Windows 95/98/2000/ME/XP". So if the expansion pack says it will work with XP it is logical to assume that the main game will as well, so I think we may have just found a solution.

Either that or you could wait till I get it and then after I get it, I won't copy the file to a DVD disk and then I won't hook you up with it for free. Of course this is illegal and I would NEVER do anything like that for the sake of playing a huge LAN game with some friends or anything. :rofl:

and id be glad to play AvP if you guys can get it, we could also play the original UT which is alot less graphics intense but its still a good time...
i dunno what this means "ATI Radeon with at least 64 megs of video memory recommended" some one enlighten me...
Dark_Knight7096
05-23-2006, 10:15 PM
I'm reading the AvP2 discussion boards and it seems that, in order to play an online game with AvP2, you need to have a product key. If you purchase used you will not be able to do this because the key will have been registered to the original owner. IDK if some of the members here know a way around that or not. I'll fiddle with AvP1 tomorrow and see if I can't get anything out of it

ATI Raedon is a type of videocard, I used to know what that means but I've been out of the geek world for a while. If you have a newer machine you probably have it. My machine is about 5 years old or so so IDK if I have it or not.
Although if the game will work on 98 it should be able to take the graphics drivers from then which means mine should be ok.
cant u get those code thingies from site such eMule? at least thats how i got my photoshop cs2
my beater comp says ATI raedon 9000, will it work?
Dark_Knight7096
05-23-2006, 10:34 PM
What I'm reading off of ATIs website I think it will
And yes, you can get a lot of product keys off of a website, but were talking about a game that hasn't been a top seller for over 3 years. Keys for this could be a bit difficult to come by.
EDIT: Found a serial, no promises it will actually work though.
Brando56894
05-23-2006, 11:07 PM

Common knowledge. Laptop HDD is 5400 RPM, desktop HDD is usually 7200 RPM.
Chances are the desktop also has better video, and beater heat management.

There are a few 7200 RPM laptop drives out, but they are pricey.
Best to just get a WD Raptor (10,000 RPM drive) for the desktop, along with another 512 mb of RAM.

i might if it wasnt a "beater". i call it that cuz my parents use it and theres a ****ton of viruses and spyware and god knows what. the piece of **** barely runs and that's why i bought me a laptop so no one else can use it and **** it up. I really dont feel like buying another computer and then buying parts for it to make it faster - it would probably break too just like my car... thats the only reason i asked if i can make the laptop run doom. guess not.

western digital came out with a new raptor, the raptox X its $300 though :( but then again it spins at 10k rpms and has a 16 meg cache :mrgreen:
as for the spyware on your parent's computer vitali search google for a program called hitman pro and install it. it runs like 15 different spyware programs automatically, so all you have to do is hit start and walk away for a half hour :) before you start it go into the options and put a check mark next to "accept liscence agreements" or else it wont be automatic it will ask you each time if you accept the agreement...
