How is New Zealand?

Strange that xfire accounts are still linked from way way way back. I completely forgot that program existed.

Ha, yeah that's right.

I remember when it went through it's first resurgance toward the end of BF2's height... I installed it and turned out I already had an account from way back at the beginning of BF2's popularity... when it got be banned for hacks because apparently skinless it looked like an aimbot menu in punkbuster's tiny tiny screenshots, haha.

Luckily Spig is a good fella and was reasonable.

Did you try updating punkbuster manually?

Go to www.evenbalance.com and download the manual updater

This worked for me.

Thread is probably still in the bf2 unban forum somewhere. Although maybe not, this was 2006 way back before DSL was still 256k.

So you never tried updating punkbuster manually? Eight years and you never tried what worked for me? No fuckin' wonder....

I manually updated punkbuster once; didn't help, people still called me hax.

That resulted in a hilarious (to me at least) thread here too...

BF3 is weakest BF

BF4 is refreshingly better, but still not as good as BC2/2142

Good man.

For the first time since I started to put together my own PCs (at age 16) I now have a PC that doesn't cut the mustard with new AAA games.

Was keen to try Wolfenstein the other day...ERR ERR, POOTA NOT GOOD ENOUGH. The old 6950 2 GB has lost its charm.

Would like to spend a bit of cash doing the old girl up as she has been a solid work horse for a few years now but squirrelling away funds for another overseas excursion comes before vidya gaemz.

Bastion's RPG elements are simple but very cool. Always liked the weapon upgrades and add-ons.
