I'm looking for some help identifying a PSX game I have a vague memory of seeing back around 1999/2000 (I think, could be wrong on the date and never had a PSX at the time). What I recall is that it was a 3D third person game involving submarines which included some sort of equipment upgrade system. IIRC there was also a sequence involving scuba gear outside of the sub itself... Not much to go on and I have no idea if the thing was any good, but it seems unique enough that it could be identified. Any help?

So, I picked up Portal retail at EB (I know, I know, but I had a gift card), and not only was the clerk surprised that I wanted the PC version, he took the request as a reason to try and sell me a PS3 on the spot. To avoid getting the PC version. In all seriousness. Ok, one idiot I'm sure, and retail PC sales are basically dead, but good lord.

My understanding is that the SteelSeries does have a windows key, but only the right one. Anyone confirm that?

So I'm looking for a new keyboard at the moment, and have pretty much narrowed it down to a unicomp version of the Model M or a SteelSeries 7G. I'm mostly looking for someone's comparison of the feel of the boards... The features on the SteelSeries look nice, but I have no idea how different this is actually going to feel from the Model M I'm using now. I'd also be interested if anyone has found a noticable difference in feel between the Unicomp boards and the orignals. Right now I'm using a 1989 Mexican built Model M, but the num lock light is dead (yes, I could probably repair is) and the spacesaver wold fit my desk a lot better (I'm also starting to miss the windows key of all things with the Windows 7 start menu).

This isn't necessarily the best place to ask, but is there any one here willing and able to give me a decent rundown of the pros and cons of the PS3 vs a dedicated Blue Ray player OTHER, and I do mean OTHER than the ability to play games as well?

Well, this doesn't really fit any of the forums properly, but I suspect that this one has the best chance of it being answered properly so, is there any such thing as a universal remote that will work with all of an Xbox 360, PS3 and a WD TV. It seems like the tricky part is getting a single device for Xbox and PS; I've been looking at the Logitech stuff, but even that seems less than clear on whether I need special versions for either of the Xbox or the PlayStation, so any help?

No, Steam has it for me. Forgot to check it apparently; I guess I use it so much I thought I'd know if it were there. Thanks.

Is Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 available anywhere as a digital download? I've done a cursory search, and the usual places don't seem to have it (Steam, D2D, etc.) but I'm wondering if I might be missing something obvious? Thanks.

I'm wondering if anyone can give me a general idea of the improvement I'd see between one and two GTX 280's, running with a 3.0 GHz Core 2 Duo and 4 gigs ram (haven't decided on DDR2 or 3, but my understanding is that it's not very important for performance). Has anyone done benchmarking of something comparable to this? I'm really looking for anything that would let me decide whether I should get a second card or not for my new build (and whether it would even be worthwhile to add one later, or better to just replace the card when I need to upgrade). Basically, how much of a real boost is SLI. PS, while I might at some point, assume for arguments sake the system I described is NOT overclocked.
