  1. had them for a long time

    Nesher! If you had links to them so far back, why not post em? Do you have any other goodies you're not sharing with us? :dry: Maybe an alpha release of LockOn 1.1 that we could try out here.....

    but i have codec problem... can't watch them :(

    I guess you've already been to DivX to get the latest, right? If it's the Windows Media Player that's giving you problems, select to install the DivX player as well. Works pretty good.


  2. I would be the first to chip in the money... :grin:

    Lemme just dodge a few tomatoes here :tomato: I own a copy of Longbow and a few others.

     

    Hey! Would it be too dangerous to do a Top 25 all-time greatest sims? That would include Naval/Sub and maybe even Tactical? Too broad of scope?

    {SlickWili checks the broad out in the scope.}

    Might have to increase the count to 50 if we did that.


  3. This morning on the radio I heard that the venues that would normally be hosting NHL games in the area have been served notice to go ahead and book other events (concerts, craft shows, etc.) there up until at least December.

     

    Ugh....


  4. Well it is the top 25 "Flying Games" not Flight Sims, but yeah I was pretty pissed when I saw LoMac got beat out by SWON :shok:

    Yeah, that's the catch-all, isn't it: "Flying Games"

    Heck, I've caught enough air hurdling a Marauder off the top of a parking garage and over a set of elevated train rails in Grand Theft Auto III to constitute it as a Flying Game. :biggrin:

    We'll have to be careful in how we word it. Will it be held strictly to winged birds, or to include helo sims? Hmm...


  5. Welcome to BioHaz!

     

    It's a steep learning curve, but the game is absolutely beautiful presuming your hardware and tweaks support it. Have a look at the "sticky" posts at the top of this LOMAC section to get the readme, optimization hints, and so on. That will help when the time comes.

     

    Don't hesitate to post any questions, queries or comments you may have once you get your hands on the game. We've got a great community here. :biggrin:

     

    Cheers!


  6. Hear, hear!

    That's exactly what I was thinking when I posted the news item this AM.

    Some of their "selections" are just awful and I highly doubt the U.S. Air Force is backing this list 100%. My guess is that their sole purpose is to promote a recruiting campaign surrounding the article.

    Our community of real-life active and retired pilots and service men here would probably be more than happy to help us out with this one. :search:


  7. Dutchy,

     

    IMO, It is a sad state here. Toronto Maple Leafs fans are watching ZERO hockey right now. CBC is considering broadcasting some of the other league games starting this weekend, but I'm not sure how it will pan out.

     

    All the radio stations, regardless of music type, mention the lockout on a daily basis. The odd time, one of the players will speak out and mention how silly the whole situation is, only to be slapped back into submission by the NHLPA big-wigs. It doesn't look like anyone is going to budge on this issue anytime soon. I guess it's time to hawk the jerseys and sticks on eBay. :shok:


  8. VVanks, don't you just hate it when the marketing gurus do this? It's like, "ok, so I'm paying extra to see what I just saw?" Grrr... Many times I've gone to the theatre to watch a comedy because of a couple of good trailers that I've previewed, only to find that the funniest jokes were the ones we already watched in the preview!

     

    Yep. Definitely throwing down some hard-earned cash for this puppy... to complete the Extended Edition collection I have.

    Although some of my friends are waiting for the complete 3-set, uber-boxed, ultra-magnum, mondo-mega release to come out. I presume that this ed. will have even more footage and interviews and director's blurbs, etc. etc.


  9. Yeah pcpilot! Johnny Quest rocks! I remember watching a LOT of that growing up. I usually caught that and (what they now call "retro") Spider-Man before heading to school. I noticed that Spider-Man '67 is now available on DVD. Gonna try to squeeze that on the X-mas list some how. Awesome!
