    THERE WILL BE NO "GAME FORUM" UNLESS...

    Unless I get ****-urances that you folks will not just talk about games and all that goofy crap, but that you will POST GAME AUDIO REVIEWS. You know the drill: This sounds great on my Polk Computer Speakers (or whatever) because of this... Or that... Or listen for this... Or that...

    NO GAME FORUM on our audio site unless I get a PROMISE that this is what will happen. GAME AUDIO REVIEWS.

    Discuss.

    Hell I can give you multiple audio reviews on my ps2 games and GameCube games.

    Such as SSX Tricky, and GTA:Vice City playing in DTS. Or the DDay Omaha beach landing in Metal of Honor. Playing Resident Evil or Eternal Darkness on the gamecube and barely making it to the bathroom after a near crap yourself experience because some damn creepy crawly was behind you!:eek:

    Its all good Micah. Audio is what makes it a "gaming" experience. :)

    while i agree that audio is essential to the game experience i doubt that we could keep the forum solely on game sound, every thread would eventually get sidetracked. On the audio note though, everyone with those dinky computer speakers is really missing out on game sound. I was just watching the Half-Life 2 demo movies on IGN.com and the distinct hits from the slugs of the submachine gun really come alive on my RT55i's and Infinity IL120s.


    I still have yet to make use of the 5.1 on my soundcard, however. if anyone knows where I can get a miniplug to TOSLink style optical cable that is around 3m and less than 20 bucks, lemme know.

    I'll see if I can get my nephew to start posting in here. He has an all Polk surround system and plays games online though his PS2. I believe he says Socomm (spelling???) RULES! He has alot of other games too that he runs strictly through his surround system in either DD or DTS.

    Well one thing is for sure...

    The Gaming forum could be a computer based forum...

    Instead of gaming, it could be computers

    As in...

    Talk computers, gaming, game consoles, video cards, OS, ram, harddrives, computer speakers, computer rigs, sound, video, graphics, w/e the eff tickles Micah's sock's pickle!

    One thing is for sure, I would be a regular on there as I like computers and I love games! So weeeeeeee!

    This sounds great on my Polk Computer Speakers! Before,
    I had these speakers, I never realized that the computer beeped at you when you chose an invalid move!!

    Yessirree... from now on, I can say I have a definite edge recognising an invalid move. The programmers of this game are incredible. The audio cues just about make this game intiuitive.

    How's that Micah? Do we get our forum now? ;)

    what's wrong with having game forum related posts in the off topic forum?

    I do think its weird that polk makes home products, car products, and multimedia products though, it seems like multimedia products should be represented, although im not sure they have such a devoted following

    Well there is so much stuff to talk about in gaming, it would flood the off topic if we took it there....

    OK, I gave in....there were just too many games I wanted to play on GameCube that were not available on XBOX. I picked one up at our local Sam's Wholesale Wherehouse for $150. It was a bundle pack that included the GameCube, a memory card, one free game and a strategy guide for that game. A $200 value for $150. Not bad...

    Oh and I have a general comment to make about game hardware quality.....the GameCube hardware and design is far inferior to the XBOX. At certain points, I feel like I might accidently break the damn thing...

    Anthony

    EDIT: Oh and the XBOX weighs about 3 times as much too. It's built like a damn tank.

    It's all good Sid. I just thought we shouldn't make fun of them because afterall, this thread is about video games and the Japanese are providing us with the best games. They are also the leader in the video games industry.

    Tiger Woods 2003 was an AWESOME game. I usually don't like golf games, but 2003 was incredible. 2004 looks to be even better.
