I had a pretty shit PC before: Intel Pentium 4 Processor @ 2.1GHz 256MB of RAM 40GB HDD Nvidia GeForce 3 series (Don't know the exact model) 64MB My New PC (Brought in September 08') is this: Intel® Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2.4GHz, 8MB Cache, 1066MHz) ASUS P5N-MX Nvidia Geforce7050 Mainboard - Intel Core™ 2 Duo/Quad Core MATX 4096MB 800MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM - (2x 2GB) 500GB Serial ATA Hard Drive with 16MB Buffer Samsung 22x Dual Layer DVD Writer Super Format +R/-R/RW/RAM 512MB nVIDIA GeForce 9500GT 20.1" Widescreen LCD TFT The whole system is awesome except the graphics card, can only play most high end games on Medium/Low settings. This will last me for a few years.

A bit late I guess. I had time so I decided to create this sig. I kinda like it, but needs working on. Probably won't be updating it anyways.

When I was little, I use to play Alien Trilogy which made me damn nervous. I never use to get out the elavator which would land you straight onto the first level. Ah, I think that was the scariest game on the PS1. Now it doesn't even look that scary now that I'm old.

It's suppose to be New York mate, unlike GTA 3 to San Andreas, it's based on a more realistic time, so earning like Millions, well it wouldn't be hard on the previous titles, but this seems realistic, so it is a challenge earning more money.

LOL the ending was so fucking hilarious! The bit especially when the guy was hit by the truck, and then his partner came and gave him a blow job, funny as hell.

Not really. The PS3 came out in 2006, it's now 2009. Seeing as the PS1, 2, and 3 each came out about 6 years apart, we're probably about half way to the date when the PS4 will be released. The PS4 is likely already under development. Wat. My friend, the PS3 is going to be here for a LONG TIME. It's only been about 2 years in total since it came out, why in words would they start developing a new console, if you ask me, if they were developing it now, it wouldn't have all these improvements, and it won't have better graphics than the PS3, hell no. And if you believe PS4 is in development, prove it, from a trusted source. I don't think so.

Umm, use the edit button FFS. And note, I really don't have a wishlist as I still don't own a PS3. :/ So until I get one, not really sure what I'm gonna say. I think the Internet Browsing on the PS3 is pretty good, it just depends on the time and how well it works.

It's better to learn mainly HTML and CSS. PHP, MySQL and JavaScript should be learnt after you've learnt HTML along with CSS. You could possibly fit in a bit of JavaScript coding, but then again, if you really want your site to be truly interactive between the data and the visitors, then it's essential to have something like that. Start off with the basics of HTML, then gradually work your way up to CSS, PHP, MySQL etc. It will take you some time to get use to, that is if you're not very known to the elements of HTML. CSS is rather easy if you understand HTML, then when it comes to PHP, MySQL and JavaScript, you're gonna have a hard time on it, but then you'll gradually get better at that too.

I've heard from members here that ATi Radeon HD 4870 preforms better than nVidia, that is in terms of performace. Also, look here and here. Comparing both, ATi is overall better than nVidia, and is much cheaper too if you look at the price.

ATi probably are better when it comes to performace, well that's what I know atleast from other members here. To be honest, why the hell would you have 8GB of RAM when you're not even going to be using most of it? Why don't you lower it down, and buy yourself a much better graphics card then that? I mean seriously, you can still do heavy multi-tasking even on 4GB of RAM, along with what other stuff you do as well.

Found a typo in the article Chris: Lol, I can imagine the guy actually saying that, sounds sort of like a really, really old guy talking to you. Anyways, I really do hope you get stabbed hard in the ass, because I myself really want to play this DLC! And yes, I'm soon going to be getting a PS3, not a 360. So I won't be experiencing this stuff at all. And to be honest, all my questions seem asnwered. And yeah, hopefully more fansite events like this can be done in future as well.

3rd and 2nd place, eh well at least I'm glad I'm in it. Hopefully my graphics will improve through the years, and hopefully I could win the next one, but with alot of graphic designers already out there, it seems harder for those who really do want to get this award, but yeah, great job again to all who won.

Some do visit, but most of the time their either busy, or they just pop the odd 2-3 posts and leave for quite a while, until that's over, it's the same routine, which is basically what I said. Some of the good female members here haven't even been on since 2008-2007, it would be great to see them all. Anyways, welcome, since you registered here yesterday. Have a great time here at TGTAP!

Just like Spaz said, the point in life is to live, and to make something of yourself (Well that's what I've learnt). If you're life is full of control and you can't control it yourself, this will make it either harder or easier to live, it really depends on what is controlling you and how you would manage to maintain it. I never like people controlling me, but the fact is you've been controlled once, and that's from your parents. My parents controlled me when I was young, they wanted me to be a Lawyer, Doctor, or a business man, but ofcourse, they let me go once I began to understand the whole world, then came to deciding what I wanted be in life, and obviously doing something in either Graphics, IT and some other stuff. Some people are chained to what they believe in, and they have to live with it, and their are some who are trying to get the chains off to have a better life, and to live it. I think many of us were once chained to stuff are parents wanted us to be. I guess one choice is to break out of it, and to live with what makes you happy overall. I'm happy with my choices I made, so I feel happy.

Why would you do that when we got a Members Page on the forum? Seriously, think about it first. It would be a waste of time, and truthfully, why would you do that for? Some people really don't want to show the location of where they live, and to be honest, a page like that sounds useless, really. Search engines would pick on it, but how would this really be beneificial to Chris? Other than him getting some money, but when we have the members flag page, along with the members page itself, it sounds like a waste of time, like I said. You don't see the logic in search engines and the internet like Chris said, having a page for that sounds... Useless, and is just execessive. We have something like it on the forums, so there's no point whatsoever in having it on another page.

Well, you should of played GTA III first, then Vice City and then San Andreas, you at some point will see how the game developed from a basic city to a large amazing city (San Andreas) and then to a more modern looking city as we know as the new Liberty City with it's amazing graphics. That's probably the reason why you don't like it since you've played one of the series with it's more advanced features rather than the basics features which were obviously hit, steal cars, use weapons etc. which were in GTA III (There were more obviously, just pointing out the ones you do regularly). RAGE is awesome, Rockstar will definitely keep using that game engine to create more epic games and hopefully have more GTA's in line for the future.

Meh, I heard the snow is just going to be even worse, it's not like gonna settle, but more like a storm, or either sleet, or rain. Plus, I expected it to stop about now, I guess they just want us to be under the snow a little while longer... But then again, it sucks atm, especially for me since I'm in college.

Yeah, shoutboxes suck to be honest. And if you think about it, isn't a forum already classed as something you discuss in? So there wouldn't be a point in having one, when we have something far more better than a shoutbox, which is an IP. Board. Also, I like the idea of having the avatar and shit on the homepage. Leah Dizon sure makes it good, for me anyways. And seriously not a bad idea on the homepage especially. And by the way, why does it say Terminiator Salvation Trailer at the bottom near the copyright of the homepage? Are you a fan of it or something?

I saw the pics, and they're amazing. This game is definitely promising enough to get. I can't wait to see the trailers and the other stuff.

If you think about it, GTA III as we know was one of the greatest games back in 2001, and hell, obviously we didn't expect anything to be better than that, eventually when LCS came out for the PSP, it got boring enough that we have to play a new story which would be set still in Liberty City. Obviously, New York resembles to be a city full a criminals, especially with alot of films based around that city, which always become related to crime capers, to crime drama's, and alot of stuff like that. So as we know it, GTA IV has been placed in a more modern version of Liberty City, which I think is way better than the previous version for many reasons. The first obviously being it's big, and has alot of cool stuff to it, the second is that it's a completely new look to it. Sticking to the old Liberty City would be seriously boring and if it was to be implemented on GTA IV, it would make it seriously suck, even if it had improved graphics, a physics engine, new weapons and cars etc. And what does the goverment have to do with the city changing it's looks? It's not in the same era as GTA III, as hasn't gone into construction or anything. And note, it wasn't because of the lack of visitors or anything to do with the economy, it was just because Rockstar didn't want to stick to the small city they know as Liberty City, they wanted to go for a new look, like every game they create. And I laughed at how everything changes so quick and becomes the Liberty City it is today, it would take more than 20 years to create a city, and it would cost the goverment alot of money to actually recreate the whole city. This is just Rockstars way of saying they're "Bored as hell" with the old city and they wanted to create a modern view of this game, showing the new Physics, gameplay and graphics of this game. Realisticly, they wouldn't have no reason to why they changed it, it's just so the fans of this game don't get bored of the same cities.

Happy 17th Micheal! Enjoy your day today and have a fucking blast!

First things first, you need to host your image via an image hosting website. You can use ImageLodge, or you can use IsaraPIX. Upload it, and once that's done, just copy the image code (The BBcode which shows the [/img] tag) into your sig spot. Also, I recommend resizing your signature, it passes the sig size limit. The sig height must be atleast 200px, you pass that, so I suggest you change it before you get it removed, or before a staff PM's about it. Also, who even reported this topic? It's in the right place.

The rules seem fine and as long as you do more newer themes (e.g. like Spaz pointed out, doing an FPS based sig). I'm nowadays busy with my own stuff, but I could participate in this as well. As long as it's better themes than Halo, than I'm fine with it. I'd nominate CoD: WaW, Modern Warefare. Those two for the time being.
