Firefox ROCKS!!!!!!!! MOUSE GESTURES RULE!!!!!!! Thanks jomz!

Now if only Opera can grab the code the prevents it from passing through an ISA server, I'll be very happy....



Nyahaha! Another convert, how about Tabbed-browsing?!?! No comments on that! Hehe! The download manager of Firefox is also something, eh.

Nasanay na ako sa tabbed browsing and download manager sa Opera hehe.

Try ko baguhin ang mga keyboard shortcuts. Medyo mahirap mag "ctrl+1", "ctrl+3" sa mga tabs

Hey Jomz, BT6, check this out:

STEEL BEASTS 2.0 SCREEN SHOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Big improvement in the graphics department! Can't wait for SB2.0 to come out!



Oh my, ngayon ko lang nakita to. My oh my, me like. Hehe! Let's just hope they don't focus too much on the graphics and come off leaving the gameplay as it was before (not that it was bad).

Glad you like firefox. Astig mga extensions noh, there's also an extension I found useful before, it's a website leech, basically for web-developers, it'll practially suck out everything from the website you're viewing and hence you'll be able to utilize some of the code, and maybe images to your liking. Could also have some use with regards to, ahem, R-18 sites. Hee hee.

Hmmm... me intrigued by Firefox thingy. Me wants to try. Good Win98SE 256MB SDRAM at Duron 700?

Re:SB2, gameplay will be the same IIRC. But this time, more different types of tanks are available and better graphics and perhaps even a smoother mission editor.

I too am using FIrefox and I say it's the best! Works better for dial up kasi wala na ang hasel ng too much waiting for a page to load. Try it! It's no harm downloading

For those reluctant to try Firefox, or just don't dig it, why not try MyIE2 hehe, check it out over at cnet.com. Ayus ren, albeit Firefox just offers a lot more extensions, etc.

Guys, (and gals), you better try Lock On Modern Air COmbat. This game is damn good in graphics and damn accurate. Whoa! Flying the A-10 in the demo is sure hard . Konting ikot sa left will produce spinning motion.

I'm playing this too. Now this is what I call a flight sim. If you want to get some up-close virtual cockpits as references for your models, this game might and can help. :-) The russians are getting better in developing this genre of computer gaming.

Nga pala, pc gaming is my other hobby.... if you guys need any pc games.... ehehehehe, check nyo na lang 'tong link.

great link, and a boatload of w@rez to boot. though I'm pretty sure discussion/proliferation of w@rez won't be tolerated too much by the forums' managers, as this kinda come just across the board as: illegal. So I think it'd be better if we place disclaimers, or just keep the hints to a minimum, gaya nung sabihin mo na lang sa PM.

I know what you mean.... If there would be any requests or discussion regarding that issue, it would be much better if dun na lang sa board na yun.

Yep, I really know what that game really is so I ask for it :-)

BTW, aircraft fellows! Besides trying Lock On, try Sturmovik by the same makers! Natry ko na yung demo and it was damn fun! Mas maraming crafts kaysa sa Lock On. A littile bit of working nga lang sa human figs and some polygons on tanks. Overall, I rate it 9 out of 10 :-)

IL Sturmovik 1 and 2 deal with older AC's. And SR, the full realistic modelling of tanks and humans, animals, terrain, etc. -- IF done, would just put too much strain on your video-card lest, lower-ended PC's won't even be able to play the game even in low-res mode. Nonetheless, it's really an OK idea, if you have the data compression and graphics-optimization-capability. Directx 9 is out, so maybe next year.

Oh, and BF 1942: Vietnam is bound to hit your local Datablitz on Tuesday! and you might also want to check out Unreal Tournament 2004, too.

Uy, been hearing great stuff about this a few months ago. Though, it is GT racing -- which I really am not a big fan of. I can't wait for Colin Mcrae 4.0 and of course, GT4. Hehehe!

After Sudden Strike 2,CDV released Blitzkeig. Same theme but easier gameplay. What made it more fun is the availability of the air forces. It is always fun to carpet bomb the enemy to extiction.

Call of Duty has very good gameplay and graphix. But for some reason fixated pa rin ako sa Ghost ReCon series(PC) and So COM(PS2).

MOH series is getting worse with each new release. Most pathetic is MOH:Rising Sun. The only exciting part is playing multi player with but then again nagkakavertigo ako sa laro. And it only happens when I'm playing MOH!

Rainbow Six, nuff said. If you wanna really sweat it out this is the game to play in any mode. Especially if you don't use the bloody cheat codes!!!
