I had problems with the people that managed the Rediscussed server, they said I had not paid for the server and so they recycled the server.

The problem was I had paid and they had already deleted all my files including our Rediscussed website!

Rediscussed has been moved to a different web server now… Unfortunatley the last backup ( to a different machine ) was a long time ago.

If anyone wants to post ideas of what to do next with Rediscussed.com be my guest.

• Maybe a gaming community?
• Who still wants all the game reviews?
• Giveaways?

I hope everything comes back together soon.

Prototype the game

In prototype the game, in the first few minutes you will eventually come to a point where a tank has to be defeated.

The game screen goes into a letterbox shape, an zooms in on the tank. Once the camera zooms out the letter box shape should i can only assume disappear. Although i have not been able to get past this point. The letter box shape stays and i can no longer control Alex Mercer.

The only thing i can press is Esc and then i get to a loading screen that just repeats itself until i close the game.

Has anyone else experienced this with prototype?

I’ve not found anything on the net about it yet, maybe its a rare bug. Prototype had been running fine for the first 8 minutes though.

We’ve seen one of the most advanced gaming engines today evolve since farcry which was developed initially by Crytek based on the Cry Engine, We then witnessed CryEngine2 and the massive impact on the PC Gaming industry it has made.

With many game developers trying to keep up with its technology.

Today we witness Cry Engine 3.

The newest edition of the Cry Engine (game engine) from Crytek, its said to deliver not only the best graphics on the market today, but now includes full support for Dx9, Dx10 and XBOX360 and Ps3.. for you console owners!
Crytek are selling licenses to other game developers as we speak, so we hope to see many more games in the future based off this beautiful engine.

Im sure the 3rd addition to the crysis series will be in CryEngine 3, we will have to see! time for an upgrade?! i hope so.

A demo of the CryEngine3 was shown in March at GDC 2009 view it below or watch it here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmNlc8GMwoM

I have setup a Lord of the Rings Conquest server (for the pc version) with a speed mod, everything is as normal

• Spells
• Running
• Fighting is all stable at 130% speed
• 30% more than usual

So try out the server in your game. If i get any positive feedback I’ll write up a tutorial on how to mod it to 130% speed +.

I hope they get rid of that 25 frames per second cap soon!

For the beginning of gaming season 2009, Pandemic Studios are releasing one for the Lord of the Rings fans!

Lord of the Rings : Conquest

With a full list of features Lord Of The Rings Conquest is said to deliver a great all round gaming experience. With talk about a previous release from Pandemic Studios of “Starwars Battle Front” about, its more than  likely that Lord of the Rings Conquest will play the same way that Starwars Battle Front did.

If you are familiar with Battle Front and enjoyed it you’ll probably find that you’ll enjoy this game too. Starwars Battle Front is still a popular title today, with a large community of gamers still playing online.

With Lord of The Rings Conquest you will be able to play cooperatively either 4 player split screen, or online across the internet.

Why did they target the gaming site ragezone?

My impression was to get noticed, Rage Zone is a pretty big site, with thousands of visitors a day this would be an easy way to direct traffic to them, notice their url everywhere.

It could be just for fun, or had a grudge against someone at ragezone who knows.

Is your site in danger? It might just be.

There are nearly always bugs in games, even if some are smaller than others, I am about to tell you how to fix one of the error messages that you could receive when starting Gears Of War for the pc. And how to fix it easily.

If you receive the error message:
“PhysXCore.dll You cannot run the game with modified execute code.”
Or any other error message with “You cannot run the game with modified execute code“.

Fixing the Error

1. Put in your Gears of War DVD or CD
2. Go to -> My Computer -> your DVD Drive:\ (labeled gears of war) -> browse to the following folder
3. “Drive:\program files\Microsoft Games\Gears of War\Binaries”
4. (If you don’t have the disk you can download the files at the bottom of this post)
5. Right click copy “PhysXCore.dll“
6. Then browse to your Gears of War installation path
7. “Installation Drive:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Gears of War\Binaries”
8. Then paste the file in that folder.(PhysXCore.dll)
9. Replace the file then close.

Now you should be able to open and run Gears of War as normal.

Their are other variants of this message such as openal32.dll, in which the same process can be used to fix the error. You just need to use the file openal32.dll instead of PhysXCore.dll when following the instructions above.

Required Files to fix:

Download openal32.dll and physxcore.dll here.
