Yeah they don't now. I tried several search terms on the site and even gave them a call about it.
Seemed strange that (in my opinion) one of the best PC games ever made was not available on their site.
Doesn't matter though, it's only £14.99 on amazon. |

Right well so far...
Half Life 2: GOTY edition
Battlefield 2
Prey
Doom3 expansion pack
Would you believe that play.com doesn't sell FEAR ?!
Think I'll be getting it from amazon and order that new expansion pack for it as well 8) |

starship troopers = pile of shit tbh.
came free with my 7600GT. eugh.
Yeah I decided against the budget games in the end :lol:
Play.com is soooo much cheaper than anywhere else for Prey and GRAW.
I was looking at Just Cause as well, looks interesting |

"BF2.exe" +menu 1 +widescreen 1 +szx 1680 +szy 1050
The game itself will then run in WS res but not the menu.
Yeah but doesn't that just make the game run in widescreen res... with no FOV change? |

I've not really played RPGs much, apart from the final fantasy stuff on playstation years ago.
I decided to only buy Prey today though, otherwise I'll spend too much time playing games :lol: |

Just wondering where you guys buy your games from online?
I've been out of the gaming scene for a long time due to running a crappy graphics card. But my new 7800GS+ seems to love the abuse so I need some new games :lol:
Any recommendations for games as well?? I mainly play FPS |

Grab a program called 'Ultramon' I'm using it at the moment and love it. Can have a different wallpaper on each monitor, and display a different resolution on each one. Plus loads and loads of other options. The 'Smart Taskbar' is my favourite feature that I've played with so far though 8) |

Then buy one! :D
lol, £1500 is a LOT of money for a monitor!!
especially when the smaller dell monitors are a better spec... think I'll just have to settle for a 2407 8) |

Been tempted to quit smoking but since AMD just dropped its price of the X2 3800+ to £99 incl VAT i now have no need lol.
Where have you seen that price??
I was looking at that cpu a few days ago for around £140 |

One suggestion. Build a custom desk. Nothing beats a custom desk. Way more room then desks you buy and they are exactly how you want it. Well, that is offcourse if you know how to build one. :lol: I bought a modular one, so i can make it as big as i like This is how it was at my old house before I ... |

And I'd agree, it's a fantastic monitor, especially since I was able to get the DVI model.
When did they release a DVI model?!
I've got the VGA one, more than happy with image quality but will be getting a 2nd one soon so would be cool to make use of my DVI-out |

Check out a program called "Ultramon" to do some cool things with your extended desktop... beats having the same wallpaper on both....
Nice choice of monitor as well, I have the same one and am more than happy with it 8) |

I planned something similar for my case, using a very similar screen!
Didn't go ahead with it though as I was gonna mount it across 2 of the 5.25" drive bays in a custom pod... But the front door on my PC is generally closed so it would be pointless...
Looks cool though, I like it :D |
