I'm getting sick of switching back and forth the DVI wires of my PC and PS3 (PS3 uses hdmi to dvi cable) and would really like to get some sort of hub to connect both DVI cables to, then have 1 output dvi cable plug into my monitor, then just switch back and forth between them via a button.

At first, I found this DVI splitter and thought this was perfect until I realized, "How would my monitor know which one I want to use?" also there isn't a button on it. So it seems a splitter is not what i'm looking for. Here's the link.http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2658999&CatId=467

So I searched more on google and found a guy using this box, but it's HDMI, I want the same setup but DVI.http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=101&cp_id=10110&cs_id=1011002&p_id=4088&seq=1&format=2

I have a 24" LCD HP monitor that only has 1 VGA & 1 DVI input. I game on both regularly. but more so on my PC, so connecting it via VGA isn't something I want to do.

Any help on this will be appreciated.

[QUOTE="lightleggy"][QUOTE="k2theswiss"][QUOTE="lightleggy"] again, someone who is definitly not preparing it properly

lol Why do you think someone don't like it being made wrong? You do know everyone likes different type of stuff right?

'cause it tastes identical to chocolate milk, I dont see any logic in saying "chocolate milk is awesome, ensure sucks" thats like saying ea redwood shore was a terrible dev and that visceral games improved dead space in many ways (VG is ERS with a new name)

I as well have to drink 3 per day though Chocolate doesn't taste like chocolate milk, it's a lot thicker and I do enjoy chocolate milk better than the chocolate flavour of Ensure. This is why I don't drink chocolate, I prefer butter pecan.

Hate to admit it but I was one of those kids that typed like that when I was 10-12 though quickly fazed out of it when I realized I couldn't understand some of the new words. But that was 10 years ago, I have people my age still typing and even talking (yes a few friends have said lol and other words), I now find it annoying especially when friends just spam messages at me just to get my attention.

I have the usual Arab accent though not as heavy but when I was a kid I had a very heavy accent and spoke with a lot of "D" sounds. Like "cam-adda = camera", but now I just have a mix of Canadian and my native country. I'm not sure what celebrity would sound like me, interesting question.

[QUOTE="Ice-Cube"][QUOTE="TommyWieseau81"] You have a pretty low level and post count for such an old member. Randoggy
Considering i'm about a year after him, I as well have a low post count too. Though that's mainly because I spend most of my time reading rather than commenting and discussing. I have a little over 500k messages read. There's a lot of things I miss from the old Gamespot, and one of them is those Polls they used to have on the main page.

Goto www.gamefaqs.com for the daily poll.

It's been there all these years? Thanks bud.

[QUOTE="Creative"]

I was always wondering who's the oldest registed user on GS (since they began tracking in 2002 I believe).

May 7, 2002 here, anyone registered earlier that this?

The "Available Now" filter has been removed from Popular Games, which I find very frustrating. I always checked what available games were most popular and I can't do that anymore. :(

Yeah exactly, I hope they listen to the communities feedback and at least add back the features they used daily..

It's very annoying, there needs to be an option to turn it off. Who is this feature really for? Also it sometimes never has something to do with what you were watching before.

I hate having to look at a glimpse of the top headlines, I liked reading the title and a brief bit of info before I decide it's worth a read. It took me a while to even find it, I liked the original location of it, which was to the right. This seems too streamlined and it takes longer to get to the latest news. Also it only shows one headline title at a time, which I then have to click the arrows to see the next one and I don't know which is the newest added.

Oh and the list of Popular games, coming soon etc list has been moved and doesn't look great at all. I understand you want to change things a bit but getting the latest news on the gaming industry has been made a bit harder to find on Gamespot. As a long time gamespotter, I welcomed the first site change a while back but this one seems too cleaned up, I liked having everything on the homepage to view without having to click on multiple links.

Other than that, the site looks great.
