Great combo, or the greatest combo?

Discuss

I have a Panasonic plasma screen TV hooked up in my family room, but I need to know the make and model and what resolution it is.
I do know that it is about 47 inches, and probably about 3 years old, if not a little older. I believe that it is either 1080i or 1080p, but need to know for sure.
I have checked all over the Panasonic TV box, and the TV itself, but it has no markings to signify which make and model it is, or what its resolution is.
I have tried on Google, but couldn't find any sort of relevant link, or even a picture of it.
I cannot find the owner's manual.

Can anyone help me identify this TV?

As a proud meateater, I must admit this is the best reasoning I have ever heard, ever.

Personally, I'd go with this, and then try and get either the bobble head or the lunch box separately, considering those two were the only good things about the Collector's Edition, and you don't really need both.

You'll want to use a sound blaster 16 as AFAIK Dos Box emulates that.

Okedokie, I'll try doing that.

Do not ask him anything. He is here to do his job. PERIOD.

The last good game he had was Donkey Kong 64. :(

So, I reinstalled DOSBox today to try and run the freeware version of DOOM (because using the flash port just feels like cheating). I got DOSBox off of their official website, and found the DOOM files on some filehosting site.
I got the game running, and it played perfectly fine, but there was one hitch. It had no sound. Now, I have next to no experience with DOS or DOSBox, so I don't know what has happened or what to do. I'm still figuring this all out, so if anyone could give me any pointers, that'd be a great help.

I always thought that Belle and Meg were the hottest, with Arielle in 3rd place.

Snow White was a fugly bitch, though.

That's lame. I want a happy meal.

Fuck you, the SImpson's was a great show.
And the official iPod version looks really cool, nice high resolution and 32 bit lighting!

Also, it bridges the gap in chronology between 3 and World at War.

That way the Wii is only missing 2 and MW 2.

Does anyone have any high res screenshots, other than the ones the devs released during development? I'm curious to see how good this game actually looked when it shipped, and crappy YouTube videos can hide bad graphics very well.

"We" as in America, or "we" as in, the world?

See what I'm saying? That is, unless, Venezuela had their own Alcohol Prohibition period.

I'm pretty sure the Venezuelans have heard about it at this point.

The PS3 version doesn't have trophies.

Really? Dang, that's odd.

Yes, thank you, darling. :3

I remember distinctly that it ran OS 8, but other than that, nothing.
I used to play these two awesome Winnie The Pooh and Magic School bus games on it, even though they froze up a lot. :3

Memories.

Yeah, they should of used a demo instead, releasing the full version without leader-boards is kind of taking a large risk, since some gamers don't even play games for the leader boards.

I never use them myself. Although I do like persistent stat tracking, I'm never really interested in how anyone else is doing.

So, far all the maps look brilliant but overgrown has lost most of it's grass. Still looks great though.

So, yeah, I highly recommend anyone interested in this game look at the MW: R forum on gamespot.

Thanks, that's some good info about an obscure forum on a separate website!
I'M SO GLAD YOU HAD THE PRESENCE OF MIND TO SHARE A LINK TO IT WITH US.
OH WAIT.
NEVERMIND.

All this demonstrates is the Venezuelan government's lack of understanding towards the effectiveness of large-scale bans.
All this will do is create a black market for video games, strongly fueled due to the fact that people want something bad if they can't have it, and worse if they have it and it was taken away.
The fact that this will be a back market will, unfortunately, only serve as fodder for the local officials to eat up and say, "Ooh, ooh, look! See how bad games are? They sell them on the black market! And the black market is bad!".
Over all, however, games will only become more popular in Venezuela due to the newly created black market.

I thought we all learned this back during prohibition?

I'm buying this. Cod waw was sooooo much more fun on the Wii, the only thing that let it down was a lack of maps and game mode. BUT, since the Wii version of MW will have the exact same online (except for ground war, maybe) it will be much better.

Yea, they are removing ground war (due to the 10 player cap). But other than that and that graphics, it will be identical to its Xbox 360, PS3, and PC counterparts.

Personally, this whole 10 person cap makes little sense to me. Wii game have the potential to have large, 32 player online games as shown by that Medal of Honor game that came out a while back (I think it was the sequel to Heroes). Maybe they just don't think the game will grow a large enough community to warrant the expanded server capacity, maybe they just don't care enough to spend money on decent servers (although, that's unlikely considering the effort they've put in to the rest of the game).
Oh well, the world may never know.

Might as well have just released a large demo.

And there it is. After an entire development thats total press releases added up to 12 screenshots and a short video monologue, the first videos of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex have started to pop up on the internet.
So far, it seems, it's held up to the promises Teryarch made about it. It's definitely better looking the previous efforts, with significantly beefed up texture resolution, and the all the AI, maps, levels, and non-graphical goodness from the original are present, minus a slightly scaled back multiplayer. Only 10 players per game, meaning no more groundwar mode (but, honestly, did anyone play that?), but the rest is there.
The models look decent, but they're still painfully boxy, and there's a few snafuus here and there (check Gaz's gun in the first video, and relatively crappy lighting), but otherwise I'd call this a successful effort.

More footage:

Is it even possible to upgrade a Mac Mini? Those things are like cube shaped laptops.

This sounds like more of an issue for Nintendo's help line, give them a ring the sooner the better.

Really? I thought Call of Duty 3 had crappy art. It just seemed too much like a samey knock off of Call of Duty 2's.
My personal favorite Call of Duty boxarts were Modern Warfare and World At War.

Although, to be fair, if I'm gunna call Call of Duty 3's art a samey knock off of 2's, then I'd be a hypocrite not to same the same of WaW and MW.
