Spam space bar and you get up from the chair. Then you walk over to use the terminal. Pretty neat.

Thats the one ;)

Then type in doa for the top down zombie game or zork for the text based game :)

Or type in my last name and get a song playing LOL

I posted here about PC owners being treated as second class citizens for game patches. There's quite a lot of problems with Black Ops by the sound of it, but no one is talking about this, so is no one interested in this issue? :confused:

I've not bought it yet, so can't say from personal experience.

the only problem i get is the laggy shadows nothing else i see a problem with :confused:

I think it's ridiculous they banned a symbol, regardless of it's meaning. It's justa picture. If the person using it isn't spouting hate messages, screw it. Leave them alone.

I agree!

It's their system they can do as they please. If they wanted to be complete dicks they could have just removed the tag system altogether. I don't think it violates anything to do with free speech etc.

I think they took down the symbol because of its offensive nature. Offensive symbols/language aren't protected under the 1st Amendment concerning speech, but that's off topic and should be discussed elsewhere.

The top-down zombie mode is awesome. Played with my friend yesterday on that mode and I really enjoyed. I had a hard time controlling the tank transformation though, lol.

Hey they can always do like Charlie if they really need to get their Nazi message out there.
Like the world hasn't had enough after 75 years of that BS. Go to the Holocaust Museum in DC
then maybe the outlooks might change.

<rant>If they banned the Swastika then they have to ban the Hammer & Sickle symbol as well.


Not only was it a (very real) symbol of oppression for millions but Stalin (and all the other communist dictators) killed more people (ethnic groups included) than Hitler could ever dream about.
Why isn't that symbol offensive as well? Oh that's right, they were "good guys" in WW2 :rolleyes:


GG hypocrisy and double standards.

I didn't say it violated free speech. I just said it was stupid. There are better things they can be worrying about for their paying customers.

COD Black Ops video settings ATI GPU

I just picked up a copy of Black Ops and love the game so far.

I been playing with the video settings and I don't seem to be able to get it right.

I'm running a AMD 5970 gpu and want some advice on what the video (GPU) settings should be set at for this game. :eek:
