Well I bought United Offensive...best $40 I have ever spent. It friggin rocks. I have been playing Capture the Flag the most - especially on maps with vehicles. It is so immersive. There is nothing quite like speeding your jeep into enemy lines, then diving into the bushes to try and sneak up to...

hey sugardaddyhead, Not sure if it's the same thing, but it took me a while to figure out what turned out to be incredibly simple. 1) When you go into join game menu, first make sure you have "Internet" selected from 'Source' (click it and it will toggle through...

oh ok. well fooled me! whomever did it, i hate you, but well done :)

hold the phone; why would they develop an iHome unit, all the way to the packaging, and then not sell it? I haven't been following the news on the iHome, so I don't know much about it, but looking at those pictures Reality posted makes me a little confused.

interesting insight guys :) Had never thought of that, but it's so true. itunes as a central source for all music indeed does make record companies irrelevant. No point fighting it though, it's the way of the future!

thanks for the comprehensive post BlackFlag; exactly the info I was after. Sounds like UO is well worth it, plus it's only ~$40 (AU) anyway. I was never a big fan of Domination in UT, but the Base Assault type sounds awsome. Think I'll be dropping down the the appleStore monday...

I love happy endings ::wipes tear away from eye::

dude, you guys all rock! worked like a charm - have had no problems since :) Great game. Makes me less annoyed that there is no counter-strike for mac. While I have you here: I've noticed that many servers are offering United Offensive servers, usually more than regular CoD. What does...

no doubt. I have no beef with Apple; all along is appears to be the record labels that have resisted. Silly really, I think it's the way of the future.

hey applemaz, thanks for the speedy reply. I will definately give that a go. Fingers crossed! I can't find a Mac update for my video card (nVidia GeForce FX 5200), but changing the in-game graphics settings might help. Punkbuster appears to be in-built into CoD, so I don't think you can...

I thought it was time to bring this thread back from the dead to point out that, despite it being almost 2 years later, us poor SOBs down here in Australia are yet to get an iTunes music store. Originally it was announced by IT Magazine, and relayed by Geek.com in 2003, but nothing...

Hey everyone, I bought Call of Duty today, and have been attempting to play online, but I keep getting booted from servers for one of two reasons: 1) My PunkButser software is out of date, even though I went to the website and downloaded the latest updates. 2) I get booted with this...

thanx dude. I did look on their site, and they do look the same (and I guess are), I was just thrown by Dick Smith's incomplete title. Thought they may have been an old model that looked the same but had one horrible difference. cheers for that.

I've played the demo. It's not bad, but I found it a little slow (as in the game play, not the frame rate). I had just finished played Medal of Honor and No One Lives Forever, so I wasn't used to the pace of Ghost Recon I guess. But still a good game. What is the online play like? Previous...

Hey everyone, Sorry to clog the forum with such a simple and stupid question, but I need some quick clarification. I went to my local AppleStore today for some JBL Creature II speakers, and they were sold out (pfft!). I found a local Dick Smith store that stocks them, but I'm not sure if...
