Just realised that if it got passed, you might as well say bye to Youtube.

[QUOTE="FelipeInside"]So what's the problem then?ChiliDragonThe problem is that SOPA gives a game publishing company the power to legally shut down the entire domain Gamespot.com, if they think that posting videos or screenshots from one of their games is a copyright violation severe enough that it needs to be stopped. The company making this request is not required to notify Gamespot, or ask them to remove the content--which is already their right, and if asked, Gamespot is legally required to comply--and Gamespot would remain offline until they can prove they were innocent and didn't know that copyright was violated. Read the article I linked to. ;)
Could that mean that also certain "opposition" sites for example IGN, could try to do something to Gamespot, just as an example. It could cause a lot of backstabbing throughout companies.
And certain legit buying sites such as Greenmangaming, would they be safe from it all? Or would the system think it's an illegal site?
Just trying to get my head around it all, although I'm from Australia, trying to figure out if it would affect the entire world.
The system is collapsing, now Australia has the new retail consumer laws. If for example I buy a computer for my business, and that computer broke down which caused say $5000 worth of sales lost for the day, then I now have the rights to go back to the retailer I bought the computer from and demand compensationof my losses of $5000, due to them selling me a defunct product and causing me losses.
I know that's nothing to do with S.O.P.A, just saying how screwed the world is becoming.
How is Skryim on PC with a 360 controller? Better than keyboard and mouse?
Currently hating the keyboard and mouse in the game. My character either runs everywhere too fast, or walks and watches snails pass him by.
Been wondering this myself. Cheers.
I can now press play.
Also nVidia just released a new beta with Skyrim SLI support.
Can't call in sick to play. Since it's on Steam, and one of my work colleagues uses Steam with me on their friend list. Skyrim has achievements which means he'll see.
He told my boss once before when I called in sick when he saw I scored some achievements on Steam when I was supposed to be sick.
I lostpay from it.
I really should delete him as a friend.
I've stocked up my PC fridge with beverages ready for the weekend of Skyrim.
I preordered it on Steam. It was $90, yet saw it today at a shop for $79. Can't figure out why digital is dearer. Does it cost more because server hard drives have increased in price?
Not too worried, Bethesda is worthy of taking my hard earned money.
Intel i5 2500k 3.3gz 6mb cache Good processor for games
Asus p8z68 usb3 sata6gb ati/crossfirexYour catered to SLI another 580 later
8gb samsung ddr3 dual ddr3 1333mhz (2x4gb)
1.5gb nvidia gtx 580 (it doesnt say what brand like evga msi etc - just nividia) That will run everything no probs
80gb intel 320 series ssd sata 3gb/s upto 270mb/sr - 90mb/sw
500gb wd caviar black wd5002aalx sata 6gb/s, 32mb cache 7200rpm
(^ do i need two hard drives?) With 80Gb SSD as main OS drive yes you'll need two drives.
4x blueray rom drive 16x dvd rom Are you wanting Bluray, save some $$$ and just go DVDRW. Use that money for slightly larger or faster SSD maybe. Intel is usually a more expensive SSD than other brands. ie: Corsair, OCZ, Kingston
Oh and corsair 650w enthusiast will be okay for the specs
It's better to swallow pride if you not certain of everything out there and get it done by a specialist. I applaude you. Work in a PC store myself and seen one too many clients bring in a PC they bought components for but can't get working. Seen one come in with dual GTX580's and a 450w PSU and wondered why it didn't work. Had one spend money elsewhere on dual ATI 6970's but bought a mainboard that doesn't support crossfire. And the place they bought them from said wanted to charge them a massive 20% restocking fee.
General rule of thumb is get a quote from a PC build specialist, but then look up all the component pricing they quoted. This way you know exactly the average price you will be paying for someone to build.
Someone here asked what is wrong with 30fps.
It is noticeable when your used to other games having better fps.Try running the same game on 2x screens next to each other, one at 60fps, the other 30fps, and you will notice.
Games made with max 30fps for PC need to be slapped. What are they thinking? Don't they realise that PC can go higher and with Vsync if there is tearing.
It's really just laziness of a direct port without any optimising.
Major game developers need to hire some awesome indie devs to get things right again.
