One of the fans on my graphics card was unplugged so I assume it was that. While trying to find a problem I realised that I had 3 hard drives in my computer, not the 2 I thought, so have magically got another 300GB. :lol:

Leveled up to lvl 22 on Cthulhu, really good game and a lot of humour (too much to take in with different bits of humour for all the book cases etc). Some of the battles are quite hard but the cow bit is quite funny especially the descriptions for the different creatures.

Anyway, todays deals:

Dead Space 2 - £5 - http://store.steampowered.com/app/47780/
Thief: Deadly Shadows - £2 - http://store.steampowered.com/app/6980/
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - £15 - http://store.steampowered.com/app/10180/ (still expensive!!)
Red Faction: Armageddon - £10.19 - http://store.steampowered.com/sale/2011_pre_red_fac (Haven't played the new one, the original was great (although it doesn't work properly on Windows Vista/7))
Fable III - £15 - http://store.steampowered.com/app/105400/
Demolition Inc. - £1.99 - http://store.steampowered.com/app/98600/
Section 8: Prejudice - £2.49 - http://store.steampowered.com/app/97100/

I have been playing with the Xbox controller and it is too arcady and the voice acting is pretty bad.

I just want to get in a koenigsegg and do 200mph through a town centre.

Depends on how you look at it. Think of Bioware and EA - their left very much to do their own thing. Just like WE are. The resources we have access to now since the EA buy over is insane. They dont dictate what we do, they dont force any ips upon us, they dont impact on the games we are makin. We tell them what we are doin, they ask what do you need. As long as they make money they are happy.
