  1. If you buy a new PC in August, chances are it will come with Vista and an upgrade coupon for Win7. That's what happened before Vista's release, it was XP and a Vista coupon.
  2. So that's what they SHOULD have...but what do they REALLY have? If they're underpowered for some reason...
  3. What thrust do the Harrier engines have in game? Once you know that, the loadout screen tells you exactly how heavy the plane is. There is no water injection modeled for any planes in the TW sims. All we get is engines with or without burner.
  4. I thought a Harrier needed to have less than 50% fuel for a VTO.
  5. I don't think you want to go there...
  6. That thing about Cunningham was pretty big news when it happened. It was discussed here, too. I'm surprised you missed it. As for how many victories Olds had, I don't recall.
  7. Yeah, these bleeding decals always give you bleeding problems with the bleeding planes!! GRRRR!!!!
  8. Fans who knew of it, you mean. It also will be biased towards younger voters since they're more likely to be voting. How many over 40 voted on it? For example, I didn't know they were compiling this until now, or I would have voted in it.
  9. I can't believe it was released over there first! Spielberg exec produced this one just like he did the first. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1055369/fullcredits#producers
  10. These lists are always so out there. At least give us meaningful ones like based on sales or airplay or something concrete.
  11. You collect your wife? That didn't upset her? Sounds pretty easy, too. "Ok, I got the only one, collection complete!"
  12. No, AF is everything F4 came with (Korea and F-16) plus a new theater (Balkans), the Euro F-16 MLU, and the addition of 3 eras (2000, 2005, 2010) for both theaters. It's all-in-one.
  13. They can try it all they want, but they seem to forget there are only so many MMOs that can succeed out there. Unlike regular games, if you want to play 3 MMOs that means you're paying a good $45/month on top of anything else! I don't know too many people who play more than 2 and the majority stick to 1.
  14. Well, I guess we'll see how well BS does on a machine closer to the minimum specs then! That 8200 is likely the biggest weak point, although to be honest I don't know how a 2GHz Sempron compares with more mainstream CPUs anymore.
  15. I don't think BS will run very great on your laptop. If you turn down the details it might run ok, but I know it needs more power than LOMAC by a good amount. F4:AF requires a lot less and will run quite well on that system, but the free look cockpit is comparatively low-detail (and not clickable) compared to the 2D cockpit. Both are about equal in systems modeling detail, although the BS is far harder to simply "fly"...I can take off in the F-16 in my sleep and fly all over the place, with landing only being mildly challenging. The Ka-50 however will likely take more damage on takeoff in your first 5 flights than the enemy could ever do, and landings are like carrier traps while flying backwards. As for Starforce, it didn't come with LOMAC but the Flaming Cliffs addon\Lockon Gold a few years later.
  16. Sorry, that would have to be Korea! In the last 20 years, I believe MiG Alley was the lone entrant into this category! I admit there was a long WWI drought, but between FE, OFF, FS-WWI, and RoF not to mention other mods WWI is picking up steam.
  17. If Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked himself, who would win?

    Does this cape make my butt look big?
  19. I average zero per year...and holding steady!
  20. Oh, I can affirm that. Reading my latest issues of IAPR I pick out mistakes all the time in spelling and grammar that can be pretty egregious. Makes me question their spell checking program!
  21. Well, think of it like this: one of the SF2 releases is only $20. Pick one and try it. Whether you like fighting Cold War, Vietnam, or fictional Mid East battles, there's something for all in this selection. Worst case scenario is you don't believe it was a big enough improvement to warrant buying it again, in which case you need not buy either of the other 2 or the ones to come, but in the meantime you did help TK out a little. Normally I wouldn't advocate "paying for a demo", but it's not a demo, as it's a complete game for $20 and it will let you use the newer mods coming out that are SF2-only with little headache!
  22. Do you mean the perception of how deep the areas where the pilot's legs go are? I'm not really sure what you're talking about.
  23. There are a ton of old sims I wish would get 21st century updates, but alas and alack and anon and whatever, I don't think it will happen. Besides, when it does we're just as likely to get an EE2 as a BoB2 or F4:AF.
  24. Space is the final frontier after all. Besides, then you get stationed places like Vandenberg and Patrick instead of Minot...sound good to you?
  25. I'd heard about a T-38 incident recently, but I'm not sure which one it was.
