heh it sounds like the ultimate in quality n features, but I would never pay that kind of money for a soundcard

FINISH HIM! GET OVER HERE! FATALITY!

DrEvil

Well, I'm actually in no rush, so may hold off (they only just came out, so high initial ££s).

The Audigy 2 ZS is ok, but looks like the X-Fi (judging by reviews I've seen) will free up even more CPU time via its onboard processor and memory.

Steve - Thursday 9pm is the next planned BF2 night - sort it out! Last nights was blinding, 21 people on!

stevencotton

Good game last night, cheers chaps

DrEvil

Hi Steven, I've started another thread -> http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=460655

But great games last night, managed to get 375 points over the course of the evening.
You seem to be a bit of natural at this game, guess its your CS experience

We were doing great as a squad, and that guy from France that was our commander was good too

stevencotton

Yeah I was quite happy I managed to take a flag on foot, and defend it against the two guys that arrived in a jeep, just before you turned up in a tank God only knows how I survived the jet that crashed into my tank, when I was up on the machine gun ..

DrEvil

Yeah, that was Blunderbus (how appropriate is that name!)

Sorry about the 2 tk's, guess I should have warned you that under fire don't stand behind or infront of me, as I am generally looking at the enemy.

Still, hopefully Sunday night will be a good one too.

Oh, on the TK subject, one of our team didn't know what the red skull & cross bones meant and kept driving over my mines...!

stevencotton

That's quite alright, first time was my fault, exiting a tank and walking in front of it ..

DrEvil

Yeah I know the second time I should have looked before reversing or at least realised you'd jumped out. Still, we got some good points going when running around in APCs n tanks
