Halo 2

After the recent E3 show and seeing some of the clips this looks amazing. But there is an eight minute clip that i have not been able to see, does anyway know where i would be able to see this and if you have seen it what do you think of the game. The only place i know of is IGN but you have to pay to see it.

Can you help settle an argument?

Ok the argument i am having is with one of my friends. It goes like this he was saying that he had seen a forum or something where he had seen people arguing about if aliens from the movie alien and aliens and so on actually breathe. Now he says that they dont and after just watching aliens it certainly sounds like to me that the Queen is breathing but i dont know, so what is your opinion. Thank you

RE: A shocking incident in France

I dont have ajoystick or anything like it and too my knowledge have`nt removed anything like it

RE: Can`t play my games

Have thought about using a system restore point but not really to sure on how to do this yet so if anybody wants to tell me then cheers

RE: Can`t play my games

Cheers thats what i thought was the problem because in one of the troubleshooting bits in C+C it says something about the dinput8 file being an old one and causing problems. So i downloaded directx9 but it did`nt seem to make a difference but thats because i dont if i am installing it properly. The reason is when i go to install it i go through the licensing agreement and then it comes to a bit where it just unzips some files and i dont know if its doing anything or if there is anything else to do.

Can`t play my games

Can somebody please help me. The problem i have is that i cant play my games anymore that i have already installed and played. The problem is when i put in the disk(e.g C+C Generals,Total Club Manager 2003) i get the option to play but as soon as i click play and try to play my game i get this message " The application or DLL C:/WINDOWS/System32/DINPUT8.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette." i`m not sure if it is something to do with the Windows updates that i just got from the internet(i am using Windows XP)so if anybody knows how to sort this then i would greatly appreciate it.

RE: ....Terminator 2 Ultimate 2disc £6.49

You could kind of use the saying that some deals are too good to be true and by the looks of the hassle that you guys are having it seems to apply for this deal

RE: DVD R/RW

Cheers for the help i had a look but is it just one thats as standard as you get and does the job or is it a good price for the deal. Have you bought one of these or know anybody that has and what it is like. Just things like what sort of dvds it reads because i have heard that some of them are quite fussy in the dvds that they copy too. Cheers for the help anymore help would be appreciated

RE: Order history @ play247

Bought my first dvd on the 1st of April 2001 my order history is 6 pages long and totals £812.96. I have been wondering for the past while about maybe sending them an email and asking if there is any chance of getting a free dvd or something for spending so much money. Has anybody else tried this and had it work.
