    I registered / downloaded this little thing called Raptr the other day. Basically, it tracks your gaming history from PS3, Xbox, Xfire, Steam, and loads of other stuff so you have 1 central area that shows all of your achievements, trophies, etc. Also, there is a chat program that allows you to stay in contact with friends from multiple lists.

    It's quite the program, and I urge all of you to give it a go.

    ALSO! I got "Alien Swarm" from Steam last night (FREE GAME!) and it's amazing. If anyone wants to play, my Steam name is Sm1ttySm1t (Raptr name is either Sm1ttySm1t or Sm1tty Sm1t...)

    Look me up!

    yea, if you have a decent PC there's no reason NOT to get alien swarm. Supposedly they are going to be adding more campaigns.

    The campaigns, maps, extra guns, etc may have a price tag on them, but if they're $10-$20, I'd spend it.

    Ya, I had heard good things about alien swarm before, but I always had the impression it was a flash game or something of the like. But I'm downloading it now and at 800-900kbps i should have it momentarily.

    Do you need a wired controller for that? I'm not exactly sure what the requirements are. I also do not have a wireless controller connector for windows games.

    do you know if the play and charge kit works at making a connection to the computer?

    if you dont know what i'm talking about see here

    One end plugs into the controller and the other into usb

    hmm ill have to test it out but my guess is no.

    Check the forums, people have had major issues (overheating, pc's breaking) and people there have loads of info on how to make it run safely.

    Sadly, I have a teribad desktop, and my laptop isnt much better. I got to the elevator part and my fps went somewhere to around 10fps, so i just gave up. Still, it was a prettly fun lil' game from what i got to play.
