    Lol yea I never saw that, but then i didn't spend much time on that forum as it sucked.
    vBulletin sucked :o that was the better forum and still is.
    Calm down, I thought the last one was that (just getting confused) as that was Lithium. Still how are we meant to remember what someone said 4 years ago? Lol
    Yeah you would think @mike96 would write in Greek every now and then to remind us lol ;)

    Does anyone have the codemasters marketing email/twitter (even better) accounts?  I'd love to personally put some pressure on 'the man'   But they are probably too smart, or too scared, leave that info out.  Maybe @justbiglee‌ could leave a coded message somewhere in a DiRT hint
    :open_mouth:  
    lol it wouldn't get you anywhere I'm the one who does those too. Sorry guys you are stuck with me.

    Believe me two years of posting up screenshots from old games and photos of cars mid jump wears pretty thin. Like I've said before I and the rest of the team want nothing more that to start talking about the game with you, it won't be in a "Hey look at this car we have, isn't it cool" kind of way though it will be a proper conversation where you help us make the game better. We've actually kind of being having it already just maybe not as obviously as you think.

    I absolutely believe that this game is what you and the rest of the DiRT fans have been asking for, Paul and the rest of the DiRT team have made this thing that is just sooo good - If I didn't feel that way about it I'd have left Codemasters long ago.

    So just keep looking for DiRTyGossip, it's gonna get harder to spot, you'll need to find the diamond in the rough - I'll sneak out what I think I can get away with in a way I know only you guys will get ;)


    So a decision to stay or leave Codemasters is based on which way a game is heading be it the right way or the wrong way?

    I believe Santander is sponsoring McLaren as well.
    Yeah Santander has a historical connection with McLaren, also Telefonica may appear on Alonso's car think he had the sponsor when he drove for Renault?

    Plus Santander still has a contract with Ferrari.

  5. @couger1981 Guessing you've never played a Halo game? :p Cortana is an AI in the game, and Microsoft have used that name for their version of Apple's Siri. Master Chief, the main character, is a Spartan II soldier, and they've codenamed the browser Spartan. Plus the Halo games were Microsoft Xbox exclusive, and Microsoft Studios published the Halo games so... 

    Next thing will be some software named Warthog, Locke, or Flood.
    Yep played and finished every Halo game up to number 4 including reach :)

    I've played 1,2,3 and 4 looking forward to ODST when they release it Reach looks good but unless they release it on XB1 I won't get that chance. Will play them again at some point too as it was good fun or at least 1-3 were. Not quite so sure about 4 it looked good enough graphics wise but some of the levels could have done with more thought because at times it felt more like a COD shooting gallery
    ODST was one of the Halo games after 3 i was looking forward to, but the game let me down once i got it :(

  7. @Hughesy @sjsharp2010 Seems Microsoft is using names from Halo for some of their new products :p First we have Cortana, now the new browser for Windows 10 is codenamed Spartan. I kinda hope they keep that name for it, less of a mouthful than Internet Explorer lol.
    Spartan has been used for numerous products so it wouldn't be the first time companies have done that :)

    I'm surprised anyone still uses a HDD for windows, as they are slow. I suppose until you get one you don't believe people when they say what a difference they make.
    I'm still using a HDD and will be for many years to come don't see the point going SSD when they have limited life span. But thats me mines still going strong so no need to upgrade.
    Limited life span? The general consensus is that and SSD will last as long as an HDD, and in most cases longer.
    No moving parts = Less things to go wrong.
    I guess it all depends on what your using it for :) Was reading earlier that if you paging files on a SSD that it will shorten it's life if not used properly.

  10. Ok thanks @Hughesy will check out the comments :) Also purchased The Forest, the trailer looked promising with it showing you building camp fires and shelters to survive after a plane crash and fighting off enemies once the camp fire goes out. Only thing i don't like about the game is when you die it's game over but haven't checked if there's a save option.
