I am so lame ... I've gotten hooked on the racing games on Shockwave.

I've been playing Falout 3 for a few hours on weekends for months. I'm on the latest add-on pack, at long last. I've been to all of the labeled areas on the map, but I'm sure there are plenty of subway stops I haven't been to yet.

I'm a big Bethesda Softworks fan. I just wish I didn't get so many crashes.

I've only had Oblivion crash-to-desktop one time.

I never could get 1680x1050 resolution to run in SLI mode, but that may be an inadequate power supply problem.

Why do people like to play Soduku? I really don't care to play it. Maybe I just don't like to think...ha! :p Anyways, what games are good for a 5 yr. old? I bought a Nintendo DS lite for my nephew, and it came with Brain Age. He loves to make me do the computations and achieve train speed on it. I now can add and multiply very quickly.

5 is a bit young. Maybe Animal Crossing?

I just turned off anti-aliasing. Wow, much more stable.

Yeah, that'll kill ya. It only has on/off, or you just turned down the samples? And, Fallout doesn't have HDR lighting as an option?

I haven't tried an intermediate level. Maybe I could get away with AA two instead of four.

I don't remember what my HDR setting is.
