    I'm looking for an old console game that I once played, but I don't remember it's name.

    it had a tank (or some vechile with a gun) that could jump and change the angle of the cannon, and you could jump out the tank and play a little man and shoot up some things.
    sort of like metroid, but with less secret areas and upgrades, but still a good game.
    does anyone know whats the name of the game, and for which system it was?

    Hi guys. I'm trying to find this funny tv commercial that I saw quite a while ago. But I'm not sure what country it's from though, since I saw it on the news as one of the "world top funniest TV commercials of 2007" when I was in Japan last Dec 07. The tv commercial goes like this:

    Guy goes home. Sees shoes & clothes & underwear strewn all over the floor. Barges into his bedroom. Wife is alone (naked I think?) on the bed, trying to look innocent. Guy opens the wardrobe and voila, half-naked guy is hiding inside there.

    Guy looks at the hunky handsome muscular half-naked guy, looks at his own skinny wimpy body, then walks away dejectedly.

    Punch line is something like: time to exercise / join some gym membership or something.

    Any idea anyone???
    Would be great if you could actually find this on youtube. Thanks in advance!

    I wonder if it's the right place but I'm seeking data on PC Fax function of MFPs

    In short I need a multifunction printer which PC Fax function enables me to receive faxes for preview on my comp before printing.
    It's an incredibly useful function, but printer manufacturers don't communicate that much on that easy to achieve feature... most of the time it's not available, yet it's a powerful tool against spamfaxes (around 5/day, hidden number, I can't change my fax number...)

    I guess spam faxes are a blessing to printer manufacturers, as it cost ink and so on...

    If you know of nice multifunction printers with full PC fax function in receive mode, feel free to drop a few words here (I know brother mfps do, but these printers are a nightmare...)

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    It might be worth it to just have a faxmodem and software on your PC and a regular printer. It would require you to leave your PC running in order to receive faxes, but would be cost effective versus buying an mfp that has preview software. I think some of the business-oriented mfps have that functionality, but I'd be surprised to see many home units with that feature.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I've searched the external RTC modem solution, the internal too.
    Truth is these modems are considered things of the past and do not get much upgrade or anything... all I find is old software and hardware that glitches a lot...

    Considering how basic and easy the function is, I wonder why manufacturers do not even think about it! it's so basic, so obvious you may want to attach an incoming fax to your next email... or you'd like to keep trace of your incoming faxes on your comp for whatever reason.

    To my knowledge, the only manufacturer I'm sure does this is Brother, but I hate their printers that stop printing when any cartridge is empty and black isn't for example or many other glitches related to their network software....

    I tried HP support, but they suck even though their hotline is damn expensive... and they never replied my mail!

    It's actually very strange... when fax is so important and even is legal in France for contracts for example (I guess it's the same in other countries?)

    Well, thanks for your answer, I hope someone can help me MFP wise, because I guess it's the only way to have up to date hardware and software. (or bloatware, but it's another subject)

    I've been using a PS2 controller to play games on the PC, be it emulators or PC games. However, recently one of the games required the use of the right analog stick, and only then did I realise that my PC doesn't recognise the horizontal axis of the right camera. This is frustrating, because I can't rotate the game camera to progress with the game. I've tried 3rd party software which maps controller to game functions, which recognises the axis of the right analog stick in the setup but still it doesn't work in the game. Anybody faced similar problems with your PS2 controllers?

    Let me guess... You're emulating FF12?

    If you are, then try a different controller plug-in. I use a Logitech Dual Action pad and it has all the necessary features of an actual PS2 controller. I've never used the PS2 controller.

    I have a PS2 and the FFXII game, so I'm not trying to get that to work on my laptop. I guess I might have to get a new controller if nothing else works. Thanks for the suggestion!

    I had a similar problem like yours, in that the games would map the right stick incorrectly, used some third party app to force the games to recognize it right.
    Forgot what app it was though >_> maybe you could look into Xpadder and map the mouse to the right stick.

    You mean Persona 3 was an anime AND a game, or are you referring to Persona - Trinity Soul?

    I think he is referring to Trinity Soul, unless there is a Persona 3 anime I am not aware of.

    Has anyone got Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance to work on Vista(32bit)? MGS4 looked interesting, so I played through the playstation 1 game yesterday, and thought I'd at least get through the second as well before buying the new one. I've managed to avoid spoilers so far. I don't have a PS2, so I'm dependent on the pc version working.

    When I start the game up, the screen just goes black, even though it doesn't say that the program isn't responding. I've gone through many other threads on other forums that describes this problem, but none of them had a solution. I've tried all compatibility modes.

    Also, will I be completely lost if I skip the third game in the series? Please answer without spoilers.

    I guess the versions of the game you're speaking about are too old to be vista compatible.
    I wonder if there's a virtualisation you could use, like a windows 2000 virtualised that could have your game to play... or even 98.
    Maybe my suggestion is just plain silly, but a bit of googling could help.

    I'm not really sure whats wrong with your MGS2 Substance game so I can't really answer that one. However, I would HIGHLY recommend you play MGS3 Subsistence. It features a much better camera than the one that was used in the original MGS3 Snake Eater. You would be missing some things from the story if you don't play MGS3. MGS4 explains some of the events and characters in further detail that took place in MGS3.

    Plus, MGS3 is one of the best ones in the franchise imo. You'll have alot of fun playing it, especially with the boss fights.
    This fantastic Sousuke sig was made by the one and only Lucifus! Thanks man!
