Second rate games that require rubbish operating systems are not my thing

I'm playing Bad Company at the moment, its pretty good, and does at least lack EA's bugginess of Windows Battlefield games.

Metal Gear Solid? I'd say it's really good, but my PS3 kicked the bucket after only a few months of me owning it and I'm waiting for some amazing deal to replace it.

At the moment, I'm playing MGS4 and COD4 online. Having downloaded both demos, the 360 version of Quake Wars was alot better, so I picked that up. However, the game itself is a Multiplayer blast, so give it a try.

Just waiting for my arms to get over themselves and want to play again...":O}

Does anyone know if it can be played in 2000Pro? Hmmm... I should be thinking Fedora here I guess...":O}

Since it uses the Doom3 engine, I doubt you'll have too much hassle getting it to run nativly on Fedora. But ages wiser than I will need to confirm that.

That's going to be a hard choice, new PS3 or faithful Fedora!? I'll see if I can't do both demo's before deciding. ...":O}

How's
Fedora 9 coming along?

If I were you, I think I'd stay with F8 for the time being. I've upgraded to F9, but I'm not really seeing anything that exciting, honestly.

Fedora 9 breaks alot of backward compat more than anything else, its something that needed to be done but isnt anything you will notice on the surface.

Fedora 10 will be the very interesting one. Many new toys are due along with improvements on Fedora 9.

Have you opened it up?

Might be possible to fix it, or you can get them repaired which usually costs around $150.
