  1. Hi Valman, Welcome to the forums.

     

    In answer to your question, yes you can share your internet from your laptop to you 360 but it's a pain in the arse to set up and you have to have your laptop turned on for it to share the internet. Your much better off just getting the 360 wireless adaptor, that is if you router is wireless.

  2. If I could choose any word to go infront of PS3 or infact any console.

    It would be "Sucks"

     

    If you are insisting with going with a console get a Xbox 360 but if not go with a PC, there better in almost everyway.

  3. RB got my vote. All the others are just a bit too plain and boring. I really like the blurred effect of RB's. I don't see why you all like TSS' it's just too plain. Anyone could take a picture of a Corvette parked outside a pet shop. Awesome picture RB.

  4. Me and my friend were looking at the achievements on the info tab, while your at home. And looking at all the achievements they did not seem to add up to 1000. Do they actually add up to 1000 or are there some extra unknown achievements?

  5. - 12 x Bacardi Breezers (puff :excited:)

     

    What you need that for? That's for kids that are 12... :p

    Atleast, i always drunk that when i was 12, or 11... :D

    Smirnoff Ice is better then :)

     

    You've never tasted Saki.

    And at that age I was drinking Beer, the proper source of alcohol.

  6. Mclaren F1 is well worth its price. Fast, gorgeous and the engine is made out of gold..

     

    I agree even though it is slightly overpriced.

    But who wouldn't want to say

    "Yeh, My engine bay is lined with pure Gold."

  7. Welcome to TDU Central RabidRabbitRiot.

     

    I see you like Hello Kitty, Thats massive over here in Japan. Anything you can think of there is a Hello Kitty Version, there are even shops dedicated to it.

  8. Why doesn't he post the actual full desktop printscreen itself? Why some cut down version, seems a bit too "uhhuh" for me.

     

    I agree, it does have that fake feeling about it, and the way it says TADA Evidence seems slightly insistent, sort of as though he's not sure if people will believe him, if he would have just gone "Here you go" that would be much more believable, however that would make him seem slightly too relaxed which could also be a sign of trying to make people believe him. (I took a short course in Psychology at Uni and also watch loads of CSI).

    --This below is the important bit--

    If you look closely round the text at the top you can see there are grey pinkish dots around the text and the text is also slightly blurry, however this does not show on the main body of text which means the top had been pasted in a Bitmap (.BMP) file then saved as a JPEG (.JPEG) however since it does not appear around the main body of text that means it was typed during the creation of the picture. I'm really sorry about sort of just proving it is fake for all of you hoping it's real.

  9. That's amazing I've got to make myself one of those, I don't see why game developers, with their billions of yen don't think of that. If they intergrated that into the Wii sales would easily triple. I mean Motion Sensing and 3D Games. Who wouldn't buy that?

  10. I want to be you at this moment. I Love the Skyline as you can see from my profile. Only if I could get one into New Jersey with out the importation giving me a hard time.

     

    Yo post pics in the showroom section.

    I would really like to see it.

     

    First off, I'd like to thank everyone for the awesome responses.

     

    And to King Skyline

    It's quite easy to import a Skyline, and to be honest your probably best off importing one from Japan as they tend to be better quality. Just find a good dealer as always buy from auction not set prices. But when importing preferably get a grade 4.5 or higher or 4 at the least and never go for modified ones. But also never think the start price is about what you will pay as they never go for anywhere near that. And always pay more for a shipping container if it doesnt come default. And always be prepared to drive quite a bit in order to pick it up and if possible have someone see the car in Japan and report back to you and last thing always be prepared to put in extra money for prep and fixing costs as I think you have different laws over there in the U.S. So thats basically it. Just ask me if you need any questions answering.

  11. Even though I've been joined a few weeks now I never really got around to introducing myself, so here we go.

     

    Hi, Im Matt Or Tuned Maniac

     

    I'm originally British and lived in Birmingham but my family moved to Tachikawa, Japan when I was 17. So I had to learn Japanese which was very hard to learn.

    I'm now 26 and my birthday is on the 7th November.

    I live in a studio flat in Okayama City in Okayama.

    I work as a mechanic at Sun Line Racing, which you may have heard of, my dream job.

    Own a heavily modified race 2002 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R V-Spec II Nur, which I have to put up with uncomortable bucket seats and harnesses everyday, but what the heck its worth it.

    I have also just purchased a 2008 Kawasaki Ninja ZZR1400 in Metallic Flat Spark Black, Seriously Fast, yet to get it tuned or take on a track.

     

    So thats basically me.

  12. Everyone i know that has an Xbox360 and a PS3 hardly use their PS3's and say that the online gaming side is much better on the 360 than the PS3 ,so I'd go for the Xbox360 Elite if I was you ,TDU 2 is a possability for the PS3 but the community for it is already in place on the Xbox360 so come and Join us now rather than waiting for TDU 2:)

     

    I wouldn't go for the elite because your paying extra for nothing but a 120gb hard drive and unless you plan on downloading loads of trailers and demos (which you can do for free on your PC) I dont reccomend the elite since the new 360s come with HDMI which makes the original idea of the Elite (1080i Resolution) now just a waste of money. Just get one of the new premiums and make sure it says HDMI on the side of the box.

  13. agreed! x1950 cards offer great performance for a cheaper price compared to the 79xx series.

     

    I also agree but buying one of the new Ati cards would be a massive mistake.

    If you cant afford a 8800GTX or 8800Ultra, Go with the 8800GTS as thats the cheapest DX10 thats any good even though buying a DX10 card at the moment would be a bad idea as when DX10.1 comes out it will make DX10 cards obsolete. Wait for 10.1 thats my advice.
