  1. Even if EA rocks, purplederp just has to find something negative to say. Admit that you're anti-EA already.

    I've always had these so I guess the foreign aspect is more interesting. I like the US boxes too but the EU ones have more punch to me. Been so awesome getting these in. Can't wait to get more.

    My imports finally all made it in! I love these boxes. So much more interesting than the US releases. Bonus addons! Not C&C but it is still Westwood.
  4. The Nazis were evil because of it. Just because someone else does it does not mean it absolves anyone of guilt or being labelled as the bad guys. If that book is legitimate, those same people are sadistic assholes, just like the Nazis who perpetrated this bull****. Don't play this relativist bull****.

    Has anyone seen this Global War: Generals

    What the hell did they do? Rip off Generals graphics?

    Windows 10 Game Mode

    Being able to edit config.sys and autoexec.bat without making DOS or Windows 3.1 crash is actually quite impressive. Those systems are very temperamental so the slightest misstep will give you an unusable OS until you fix it. Saying boot disk hacking skills is kinda stupid but the skill behind it is not.

    This mystery remains unsolved

    Don't insult Buzzfeed like that. And I hate Buzzfeed.
  9. I read the articles. It was spot on as always.

    Trump vs The World (the next 4 years)

    He's proclaimed a lot of ****, but it has to actually be approved. Granted, Republicans hold the majority in Washington, which is the worst part, but they still have to agree to it. Trump stating a bunch of **** doesn't mean a damn thing. In truth, I'm not worried about Trump by himself. He's a blowhard, sure, but he's an egomaniac and may actually have some decent ideas for the US. He's an egomaniac and will do things that make him look good to as many people as possible. Those things themselves may benefit the country, but they may not. That being said, it's the cronies around him that will **** up the nation.

    Half-Life 3 is in development

    I'm sure HL3 would be great but it's gone on too long. No matter how good it turns out to be or not to be, it will fail to meet the absurdly high expectations.

    Windows 10 Game Mode

    Do you have any evidence to support this claim? Sounds like unfounded conjecture to me.

    Half-Life 3 is in development

    Yeah, that's really the reason. And that was a perfect example of the cringe.

    Windows 10 Game Mode

    A Win32 app has nothing to do with the CPU instruction set and whether or not the OS is 32/64-bit.

    Awyeah. Got some updates! I found me a DEFCON 3 box in super great condition. I also got lucky and got a DOS original RA release! That Red Alert 2 comes with 3 discs. One being a manual CD, which is pretty neat. Not too much new here. I got a much better condition Renegade box and I have those cool figurines. I had to get two of each because reasons. I need some replacement jewel cases. Most of these are a little too damaged for my liking. :/ Finally got me the Deluxe Edition box and the box for the GLA general! And finally got a standard Generals Mac box! Finally picked up a First Decade with the cardboard sleeve without being covered in stickers. Really happy with that one. Almost got the second variant for Worldwide Warfare! SO CLOSE! Console editions! I have all of the US released console copies that exist. Oh, and that super neat Japanese C&C1! Just some EA rereleases for TS and RA2. Nothing fancy but I still think they're neat. I found a Generals promotional soundtrack that was never released to the public so I absolutely had to pick it up. I'm also trying to get unofficial addons, but they're hard to come by. Don't mind the cracks on Tactical Operations. Goddamn postal service damaged it in transit. Oh, anyone got links to cover art for the Command Companion? I can create my own inserts to make it look better. I have a few more things on the way and they're super cool... at least for collectors in the US. You'll see when I get them in.

    Modifying Red Alert 2/YR With Origin

    Name is used for identification in FA2. AtomDamage is for Red Alert 1 and is not used as far as I know. Parsed but not used. rules.ini edits change the missions as well. However, edits to maps will override the rules file. If you're editing RA2, use rules.ini and if YR, rulesmd.ini.

    The Last Jedi. Could they have picked a more cliche title? Goddamn.

    HL3 is the 9/11 conspiracy of the gaming world. Sometimes funny. Most times, super cringey.

    Windows 10 Game Mode

    Unless you have a toaster, you don't really need this. I use Windows 10 and nothing slows my games down. I can play Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2 completely maxed out at 1080p and get more than 60 FPS at all times. And that's with a bunch of bull**** running in the background. In fairness, I do have an i7 4790K, 32 gigs of RAM and a 1070 8GB. xD Really, this just isn't needed unless you have low end specs or outdated specs. A Core i3 or any quad core AMD and 6 gigs of RAM for example. If you have an Intel quad or an AMD six-core or better with 8 gigs of RAM plus, there's no need for this.
  20. You are officially completely untrustworthy.
  21. The long and short of it is that you don't. If you're trying to get into a protected MIX file, they want you out of their files for a reason.

    First-ever Steam Awards has begun

    GTA won too ****ing much. I love GTA5 but it's not the be all, end all game.

    I still rock a 4790K. No upgrades needed.

    No, it's for the original Red Alert. There were several unofficial addons that had boxes, though most didn't I think. The only boxes I've seen for addons is Total Destruction, PerfectAlert and Are You Ready & Alert. All for RA1. Some exist for C&C1 but not any boxed that I can see. They're called addons, but they're really just SP and MP maps for the most part or map editors. Total Destruction is maps and an editor and Defcon 3 is just maps I believe. However, since most of them are from Europe, I don't really know. If anyone can clarify, that would be nice too.
  25. The Generals SP wasn't the selling point. It was the multiplayer, which was seriously hardcore.
