Nah not seriously.

Long story short, I rarely shut down my PC, maybe once a month for when peoples fangames create stupid folders that I can only delete after rebooting.
Not the smartest move- I know, shutup.

So I'm writing all this from my Wii just to let the few of you who might be wondering what happened- what happened.

My computer is currently, hopefully being fixed.

btw, with no computer I've basically been playing Wii all day, I even bought Medal of Honor 2 because it has 32 player online...
Well not for Australians or New Zealanders, in fact they even removed the splitscreen multiplayer. >_<
Just another reason to hate EA.
So if you live in a country unlike America and not unlike Australia and New Zealand- DON'T BUY THE !@#$% GAME.

The stupidest part is that they didn't remove it from the instructions manual, so it took me like half an hour to figure out without my computer.
Gah the only reason I bought it was for the apparently awesome online play, why else would I buy another !@#$% WW2 fps?!
Taking it back tomorrow, 'gonna get Wario Ware or sumshit.

k, bbl.

-edit
Oh!
And I finally finished Metroid Prime 3, what a !@#$% masterpiece, definately my goty.
100% complete on veteran btw.

Fear my Blades Reputation: +3/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 562	Yikes... I do about the same thing with my computer, except I leave it in sleep mode overnight. I'm gonna start shutting it down instead. That really, really sucks about Medal of Honor. Split screen too, who the heck is the complete moron that suggested that? Logged
	I've done it (sorta)! Bloom Lighting in GameMaker, and 3D mode too! Check out the awesome Screen Saver.

Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Posts: 1838	Got my computer back today, working like a charm They said I'm lucky there was anything still left on the harddrives, let alone everything. Good to type with a keyboard again And I went and swapped medal of honor for wario ware, they even gave me a classic controller for free, my EBgames must be the best one on the whole planet. Logged

Reputation: +9/-1 Offline Gender: Posts: 4654	I'm glad to hear that your Computer is fine now Takam. at lazy EA not taking things out of instruction manuals that aren't in the game. I also barely shut down my Computer. I usually only restart it if it freezes and such. Logged

Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Posts: 1838	Yeah, I'm gonna shut down when I'm at work from now on. EA just pisses me off so much, like they don't have millions, if not billions to spend setting up a few servers for their own customers. Logged
