Fzzzzzzzzzzzzzt

My ATI Radeon 4850 is no more, seems never to have quite worked as it should and the VMU is hosed, artefacts all over the screen. I've now got a thirty quid Maplin white box Nvidia somethingorother instead, while Cyberpower replace the knackered behemoth. Even my screen saver plods along now, I think my Oolite posts will have to wait even longer (short version - get on the Oolite forums wiht any headaches, they are lovely people and will get your game tweaked for comfort and nostalgia in short order) and all testing is now out of the window.

At this rate I'll be picking up my DS or at a stretch cracking through my active list on 360.

I have to confess it's been nothing short of ungamely in the Temple recently. Hope is not beyond me though, the beta has landed. These are testing times...

Other things I'm not writing about - Far Cry 2 is clearly one of those broken games you play anyway - is it cognitive dissonance or the call of the pretty jungle that keeps us going? XBox 360 wheel - it turns the Temple into Namco World, but now I've got a massive wooden futon sofa and nowhere to shove it for the wheel to get in front of the Temple Altar... and finally - Oolite has turned a corner. More to follow, unless there isn't.
