130510 Status ….

Yet another fortnight rolls on by, never to be repeated again. Is it just me or are they getting faster?

Part’s tells me he should be in THIS friday (10/5), so without any more messing around with endless digression in which I could continue on and on about nothing you’re probably interested in anyway, I’ll just cut straight to the chase. After all, I could tell you about something completely off topic that I find infinitely interesting but has no real bearing on Friday night’s proceedings and would most probably bore your socks off, so why bother. I’ll just get on with it then and let you know, because I know you’ve all got busy lives to get on with and probably haven’t got the patience or inclination to read a long winded, padded out boring post that’s completely irrelevant anyway, so without any further ado – YES, gaming is on this Friday.

130426 – let the games begin …

It’s been a while eh! Life can step aside this Friday evening for some virtual mayhem!

Get ready to rumble in Game StockCar, with maybe some close quarter action in BF3, FarCry3 or COD2 – depending who’s partakes and what’s installed.

Roll-call from 7.30pm.
So who’s in?

Ahhhh.

Well, I’ve now completed a clean reinstall of Windows 8 after a few problems developing with my original install over Windows 7. After trying many other solutions without success, it seems to have fixed all the problems, including a DCP_Watchdog_Violation error if I didn’t move the mouse for 4 minutes 20 seconds, Windows Explorer quitting if I right clicked on a file or folder in the left pane, hotmail not letting me format text or attach a file and a game that stopped responding then stopped working all together.

Anyway, Farcry 3 is currently available from EB Games for $35!
Parts and I now have a copy.
It’s a buy two items deal, BUT, you can buy a $5 item for $2.50 with it to get the deal – at least I could

Hobart had a few copies of “The lost expeditions edition”, Eastlands had none.

The “Insane” edition is also only $35 – in store only, but Hobart and Eastlands don’t have any.

Next gaming night will NOT be on the 12/4 as scheduled.
We can make it the following week or leave it to the usual fortnight – open for discussion.

Formula Truck Sim

In development from the same makers of Game Stock Car – Reiza Studios – comes this awesome sim! Now wouldn’t it be good if it was an add-on and the serial keys we just purchased worked for this game Bring it on!

Friday night just gone saw Woodie, Raw and Tone Racing head to head over LAN after purchasing Game Stock Car. Limited to four types of cars and only Brazilian tracks, it’s realistic handling and low outlay makes up for it’s lack of diversity.

HAPPY NEW month.
To kick off March, gaming will be on!
COD2 at 20 paces I guess?

A FB Fiend who races for real says “i recomend Game Stock Car, Cheap only $20 i think it was”
AND IT HAS MINI’S!!!!

So who’s in?

130215 Mission status …

Interested? Should be on this Friday
We still need to agree on a racer – or just wait for GRID2 ….

Talking about racers, I’ve just been looking into Project Cars

Currently in Beta testing and due for release later in 2013.
Unfortunately, “new members registration and Tool Packs purchasing is no longer possible. We hope to welcome you as members of future WMD projects.”

Looks very promising though, “as real-life racing driver Nicolas Hamilton has joined the studio as Handling Consultant for the new title.”

RaceRoom Racing Experience free to download but content cost various prices. Bathurst cost $13 well worth it!!
GET HANDS ON WITH PROJECT CARS!

GRID 2

Release date May 31, 2013.
