ok thats really cool looking but what I meant was something that you could make in one line of text, and not several.

I've been playing CS:S and I saw this one guy's name and he made a Deagle using text. I've been trying to replicate it but I just can't find the right characters. Has anyone else seen these kinds of guns before? Does anyone know how to make one/find one?

Hey all. I just recently read on a map download from garrysmod.org (http://garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=9526) that you can play outside maps in HL2. How would you do this? Would you load it from Select chapter or something? Does anyone know more information?

I'm trying to decide whether I want to get back into WoW, or wait for Skate 2 to come out and buy that. I have the money for my monthly subscription to WoW but I've been playing the Skate2 demo and it's awesome! So what do you guys think? WoW or Skate2?

hmm... 10 years from now? Well I can tell a lot of people agree with the fact that CS (and also CS:S) will be going on for a long time. I know HL@ isn't an online game but I can see that one going probably for +10 years. But online games? WoW looks like a pretty strong competitor. A lot of PC online games will most likely outlast many of the other online games out on the PS3, 360 and Wii. The PC just seems more universal than a gaming system, which means more longer lasting games. Now if they succeeded putting TF2 on the 360 and PS3, why can't they try putting CS:S on a system too? I have a hunch that would be pretty popular for those of us who don't have up-to-par computers with all the games out there that call for a great graphics card to run them.

I've got a big problem. I'm in hot debate with myself over whether I should get back into WoW or buy Skate 2 when it comes out. I have the money for my first month's membership in WoW and I already have the Burning Crusade, next WotLK. But I've been playing the Skate 2 demo and it looks incredibly fun. So I'm not sure what to do. Wait for Skate 2 and buy that, or get into WoW again. And I don't want any posts about WoW being a waste of your life. I don't care just give me an answer.

lets see. One of the worst things things I've found in certain games is when you're given a specific task like to pull off a certain string of tricks or finish with an exact move and if you fail you have to start it all over again. Case in point: Naruto Revolution (or something like that) for the Wii, you have to defeat your opponents with a certain finishin move. You can't throw another punch or kick unless their life is gone after that move or else you fail.

Other things like you have to build up some sort of skill bar or whatever and pull off an exact trick, land in some specific area and everything is so specific and needs to be so perfect otherwise you need to re-build your special up again. Those kinds of repetitive challenges I seriously hate.

I just had a look at the Can you RUN it? tool and it gave me a big fat red FAIL sign on my computer's specs to run Portal. And personally, Im not surprised. I've been telling my dad to help me amp it up but he never actually does anything about our graphics card being so out-dated. He upgraded our RAM to just over 2 GB and that was great! It made things run a little faster but it didn't make them run more efficiently. The graphics card I currently own is an ATI Xpress 200 series and that must be a card from like 2000 or something, isn't it? That's 9 years ago. NINE YEARS! So I want your guys' help. After going to the page where there were some recommended drivers to purchase, I'm trying to figure out which of the three on that page I should get. Here's a link:

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?Lprice=100&Hprice=199.99&Nav=|c:319|c:1603|&Sort=0&Recs=10

There's a $109.99 Visiontek Radeon 2400 Pro Video Card - 256MB DDR2, PCI, DVI, VGA, HDTV

$129.99 Visiontek Radeon X1300 SFF Video Card - 256MB DDR2, PCI, DVI, HDTV, Small Form Factor, Video Card

and a $139.99 Visiontek Radeon X1300 Video Card - 256MB DDR2, PCI, DMS-59, HDTV, Video Card

So if you guys could recommend any other graphics cards or one of the three I listed above, I would be incredibly grateful for your help. I just want my computer to be in a condition as good as possible. Thanks!
