Looking like a game that marries Gears of War + Prince of Persia mechanic.
Wonder why it wasn't announced at Sony's E3 Conference.

Deemed an exclusive by Gametrailers.

PSB Speakers

agingamer — Tue, 12 May 2009 23:31:25 +0800

I was at a shop today and they shown me a speaker set from PSB, PSB Mini Theater set.
Being a total beginner in this area, I was easily impressed.

I am looking to pair it up with a Yamaha 565 or 665 to watch movies and hooked up to play console games.

Anyway, anyone in this forum have any experience, pls chip in and sound out to provide some short review.
It will be much appreciated. Thanks

Hi
How do I keep myself updated with game patches in this age of next-gen console gaming?
I do not have my console permanent attached to the internet (no broadband at home ... )

Thx

Looking for TOSLINK Optical Splitter

agingamer — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 01:17:56 +0800

Hello all,
I need some help in tracking down a Toslink-type Optical Audio Splitter.
Basically, I need to connect two devices that output digital audio through optical connection to my surround sound system (HiTB).
Instead of buying a full-fledged AV receiver, I found online something called a Toslink splitter.

Tried searching in Jalan Pasar, but none of the people heard of such a thing.

Anyone here knows where I can get one?
(I can find it on Amazon.com but unfortunately, they do not ship this item outside of US)

Thanks

This is the first major games convention held close to Malaysia.
News is that Nintendo is launching Wii officially in Singapore at this event and Sony is also participating.

I am thinking of 'training' over on Friday night and coming back on Saturday night.
Anyone going to this event?

Also, where can I find 2nd hand console games in Singapore?

Linksys AM300

need help from the sifus here...

I recently bought Linksys AM300 ADSL modem and it shown great promise by having a
ADSL download connected rate.

I have configured the usual port forwarding setup but the weird thing is my
utorrent connection will only turn green after I go into the Apps/Gaming page and
click on Save Settings (if the modem was previously powered up).

And the BT speeds was actually lower than my older modem.
No changes on why PC and if I switched back to old modem, even though my
connected speed is 800kbps, compared to the 1536kbps (on Linksys), my effective
BT download rate is higher? What could be causing this?

Anyone had similar problems with this modem?
Thanks
