This thread is for stupid GAMING questions that don't deserve their own thread

Is there any way to make Achievements show up in your dashboard and the Xbox site by their natural order and not by the order they were achieved? I'm just asking because it's annoying and that's how it works on the PS3. Both the console and the website.
It makes much more sense that way, not the random shit that happens on 360.
 
I'm looking for a specific Elpresador video, the one where he says something to the effect of 'if you have money, you can get everything in life for free'. Does anyone know where to find it?
 
OK Counterstrike 1.6 question.

I have a Japanese keyboard and where the tilde key is normally is the switch input button, basically meaning I can't use the console (well I can but I have to hit the button, cross the console off with the mouse and then press it again before I can type anything, grrr)

Annoying thing is I can't change the binding, I made a new file called "userconfig.cfg" in the cstrike directory, added a toggleconsole bind to F1 and it just doesn't work. I can check the bind via the console (accessed long way round) and it seems to be bound fine, but it still doesn't work. Tried putting it on a few different keys and makes no difference, what am I doing wrong?

Alundra (PS1)?

Bought Drake's Fortune non-platinum for a pittance.
I see there's a patch for the game, is it only for trophies or other things were fixed? Is that the only patch?
I don't care for trophies and I won't bother to hook up the ps3 to my network is that's the only thing it adds.
Also, if I loved playing U2 like a stealth assassin way more than Rambo dude shooting everything that moves, should I play it on hard or normal?

The patch fixed minor bugs & added trophies. there really isn't stealth in U1, considering they always know where you are half of the time.

Thanks man
 
I just got a Belkin n52te gamepad and it can't fucking change from the default settings in a game. I've got 3 different profiles and they do jack shit. What's the problem?

Edit: Nevermind, I had to click Apply Changes to really save it.
 
something weird has been happening lately where I've been getting whispers in WoW from people, normally that's not odd, but they've been all level 1 characters every time and it wasn't just in one realm with one character. All the times I've never replied cause well back in the olden days of yahoo messenger that's how they got you.

Is that's whats happening here? can they hack via just a whisper? Are they just stupid harmless bots?
 
Also asked in the "My PS3 died etc..." thread:

How safe is it to run a PS3 Slim vertically? I was thinking about buying a stand because having it standing up would give me more space on my incredibly cramped desk.

Gold spammers. Ignore them and report then, especially if their names are Qdzdzdzdzdz.
 
I'm looking for a Japanese PS3 game that I saw a trailer for around 2007 where it was this kid that went on a summer vacation (or something) to a farm and you could do all sorts of things in it. I don't know if it was ever released, but I just remembered it and I can't seem to find it.
 
For those of you who have bought virtual console games and have owned two Wii's linked to a club nintendo account, can you check if it makes duplicate entries in the products registered section of your club nintendo account? Basically say you bought Donkey Kong on a launch wii and that was it, then the black Wii comes out and you sell your launch Wii and pick it up but are jonesin for some Donkey Kong again so you purchase it on the new Wii with the same Club Nintendo account. Will it register Donkey Kong twice in your products registered section?

Boku no Natsuyasumi 3?
 
I have a problem running games on my laptop. They start off running perfectly at high settings but after a little while the game gets choppy. I tried reinstalling my drivers, getting the dust off my vent, checking for viruses, but nothing helped. This is most notable in Crysis and Mass Effect 2 but it can still happen in older games such as Half Life 2 and F.E.A.R. although to a lesser extent.
 
Does anyone know how downloading game saves work? I found some at gamefaqs, but don't know if they are legit or will just destroy my new slim. My old PS3 broke and had to buy a new one, couldn't transfer game saves, and all I really wanna do is go around in RDR and goof off.

i think you just wont be able to get any trophies for the game you use a downloaded gamesave for. It shouldn't harm your PS3 at all
 
I recently noticed that the SNES has two different types of eject buttons. One is embossed and the other looks to be screen printed white. Does anyone know what this may signify? Or whioch one was used first?
 
Why do some of the guns in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 eject shells from the left side of the gun? It seems like a weird mistake to make and I can't think of any technical reason to make it like that.

This probably won't answer your question very effectively, but the EU Club Nintendo accounts do recognise duplicate purchases for retail games at least, evidenced when I imputed the stars points code that came with my launch copy of Twilight Princess, and then tried a different code for a copy I got years later; it was rejected.

I'm pretty sure Nintendo can restore all the VC/WiiWare stuff in your CN account to your current Wii if you contact them, that's usually what happens for stolen units at least.
 
Where can I check Wii Sports high scores? Isn't there a place to look and compare each Mii's scores other than the message board?
 
This might be the best place to ask. I got a couple of multiplatform games through Steam recently and I was wondering if people would recommend to use a controller or keyboard&mouse for the following games:

Mafia2
GTA4
Just Cause 2

I usually prefer keyboard&mouse for FPS games, but controller for third person action games for example Batman:aa or Bully. I'm asking because I tried Mafia2 last night with kb&m but the game seems more designed around the use of a controller, but my controller(s) are currently at my brothers place so I'd have to pick them up first.
 
Max Payne 1 and 2 are on sale on XBLA for 600 points.

I have enough to get one of them.

Which one should I get?

Or, should I just save my money?
 
Is there anyway to use those dual microsd adapters on the psp go?
My 3000 broke and I have one of these with two 16gb microsd cards.
 
you know thinking about it i've never actually tried, but what happens when you reach the 1v1 vs sephiroth at the and of FF7 and you don't have omnislash? Does he just do whatever limit break he has equipped? I can't recall ever watching any media when he doesn't do omnislash, and every time i played through it i made sure i got that limit break.

The first time I finished the game I didn't have it. The omnislash command just appears. I was like "what is this"?

Busting out an entirely new limit break to kill the final boss makes that way cooler actually.

Ubisoft insist you don't own your games when you buy them. How is that not a moral gray area but piracy is?
