I got up to the 8 or 10 hour message. I don't remember what it said. :(

Dang.... yeah I can imagine I played that long in 1701/1602

I played the crap out of those games. :toast:

This is the first time I have done continuous play in 1404, I just got around to finishing the campaign. I was amazed at how fast the medium AI are taking over in continuous play! I have the island world set to largest, and the AI has already taken close to half the islands. :twitch:

How is that Logitech G25?

Complete ownage! Love speeding around the nurburgring in a Bugatti Veyron, trying to control its overhelming speed with the G25's 900 (not using 900 atm) degrees of rotation at the tight corners and long straights. Utter beauty in motion I say! If you can find one, get it, the G27 is overrated and that sequential in the G25 comes in handy playing rally games. ;)

I have need for speed shift and i played it way too much till COD came out. But then i just made progress till i unlocked tier 4 cars(bugatti, pagani). Now i only play it to make money to actually buy one of those awfully expensive cars.

@sensi karate
do you actually own 1 of those tier 4 cars or was it just single race. My best car at the moment is a full upgraded dodge viper. Not that bad in curves but awesome speed. It can beat tier 4 cars. Like to drive that car down the nurburgring.

How you guys can play with Win7 i able just to install the latest games. Crysis wont update patches are not compatible with the operating system shit i hate that error message.

Lately tried to install Blacksite during installation do not recognize the second installation cd, and many other trouble makes me very angry.

Have to wait for new games.

If they do a new operating system every 2 years go F---k microsoft.

I got most tier 4 cars, not that hard... I play on Hard AI difficulty, no Racing Aids... Its fairly simple when you get the hang of it. :p It'll take some time to make the money, but you'll get there eventually ;)

I play on medium and most assists on. No braking assist of course. Carreer was just too easy :p. Think its time to go hard :D. You should check the viper out its an awesome car.

Dang, bad luck. I was able to discount mine from $550 to $300 by showing an online website, plus it was the last in stock.

Also I'm not totally sure on this, but don't you make more moeny when playing on a harder difficulty? I know DiRT 2 does it, but I haven't played NFS:Shift in a few days (been playing DA:O) so I cant remember...

That :) Haven't been playing DiRT 2 or NFS:Shift at all for couple weeks, Dragon Age is just too addictive. Once you hit few hours session of it don't really feel like driving afterwards :p

44:31:35 Returning the Acorn <- Though that data is a bit behind. Still quite a lot of hours already and no end in sight.

edit: and on Shift. You get money on the points you make while driving. Just drive more and more money (if I don't remember all wrong). Anyhow just drive the lower level things before 4th tier stuff. I had millions just driving the invite events and what not. Think even online racing makes money, so it's a non issue.

Look for the kung fu mod for max payne if you havent already seen it in action - its mental.

but if you want more retardedness - look for the equilibrium mod.

You should get DiRT 2, it owns. ;)

I'm in the same boat, DA:O is just so addictive I can't be stuffed playing a racing game. I tried last night and just did one race and then went back to DA:O.. so addictive.

Yeah, you make more money by completing the stars in each race. Also, like you said, you also make heaps from invitational events.

I'll eventually come back to DiRT 2 and NFS Shift, but I'm just to addicted to DA:O to really play them.

Once I've played through both games, I'll most likely get the Kung Fu mod.

ok. nice rig btw. ill just check out some You Tube first;). i just dont like time based games. it always stresses me out in kind of a way. ok, time trials like in most racing games are cool but not if the whole game is like that.
