I myself had quite a lot of problem in the past with headphones, always braking down, starting to hear trough just one headphone, etc. but even so I personally can't wait for this to come out because I think that it must be high quality to justify the price.

The Razor Megalodon 7.1 Headphone Set is designed to deliver the kind of peak surround sound goodness that can only come from ‘unheard of processing power’. Naturally it’s not for the likes of you and me, you’ll need to be a rabid gamer to really appreciate the power and the glory. Oh and did we mention it uses the same sort of ‘military grade audio technology that was originally developed for fighter pilots who need precise positional audio warnings for incoming missiles…’? No? Sorry about that.

The price of one? It seems that it should cost $149.99

Edit: The part I was going to add but didn't got the chance since some are lighting fast

It's called a Force Dynamics 401, it's basically a hardcore car simulator and I have seen plenty of videos on youtube with LFS.

You can read more about it here: http://www.force-dynamics.com/401/

What's the 401? Well, the best way to answer that is to see it moving - check out the youtube video to the right, or take a look at the high quality version under 'media'. It looks a lot like the 301, but its capabilities are far in advance - because, for simulating a vehicle, its rotation is incredibly important. You probably know, intuitively, that when you're driving a car that's sliding all over, it's the rotation that tells you when things have gone wrong (if you play that video, this will be fairly obvious!). Research in this area generally says that physical sensations take the lead over your eyes by about a tenth of a second when you need to react to something like a car sliding - and without feeling this rotation axis you rely on your eyes (or, in the 301, the secondary sensation of lost lateral grip) to tell you what's happening.

...Unfortunately not for consumer use but you can get it's smaller brother, the 301, which still looks pretty interesting.

Did I mentioned it's price (301)? It costs about $15000

I'm sure that the simulator plus those headphones would make for a pretty nice experience but I still think that it's a bit exaggerated. I've never understood why some people would plan on spending that much on virtual immersion, why not just do the real thing?

Clarksson FTW!


Westfield or Caterham?

Well if I would go for the looks, I would say 1999....luckily I'm not so I choose the 2009 F1 since it's a bit closer to traditional single seaters (no TC and slicks)


Poor and optimistic or rich and pessimistic?

Weird al yankovich is my choice.

Being blind or deaf?

CMON! Angelina Jolie!
Even if your pack included a G25 with a real car as cockpit for playing it wouldn't be worthy.

Just wanted to see if anyone likes sims THAT much

Quote from Velociround :

Sound System 2.1 45 RMS or Sound System 5.1 30 RMS?

Well that's quite a tricky one. I'll go with the 2.1 45 RMS.

Test Drive Unlimited or Gran Turismo 4?

Definitely Brands Hatch.

Angelina Jolie or a sims pack (iRacing 1 year membership, rFactor license, LFS S2 license, netkar Pro license)?

Renault Laguna BTCC, probably faster, better looking and pretty much stronger in every specification.

A New PC or a new motorcycle?

What, nobody gets stuck this early, on surely?

I used to love that game! Unfortunately I forgot it's name so I never got the chance to play it again

Would you mind telling it's name if you know it?

Quote from lerts :

i bet is a completely new question and interesting on the net but the atmosphere here of left brain dominance doesnt allow for the originality of a right brainer

IMO to find out who pics his nose is really not interesting and I don't think that it will change the face of humanity and stop being so arrogant in such a stupid fashion. I agree on the fact that Einstein and all the great minds where ridiculled by humanity but there were some people that appreciated them. In your case, i would start to consider that I really might be just mentally challenge when I'm the only one that thinks that I'm smart and the rest of the people think I'm a nutjob.

Well I didn't uderstood that one but I am in the bad jokes thread so that one rulz!!!!11


So this pale, medium sized man walks into a bar and orders a drink. A few minutes pass and a nice, young, blonde lass sits down next to him. She looks at him wonderring why he's so pale. A few minutes pass and she's still wonderring why he's pale. She's still wonderring up untill this day why he was pale

Just by looking at his pic you can realize that his mentally chalenged. I personally would avoid reading such forums to keep my IQ at a stable and high value

Oh, and a small tip for lerts to follow from now on:

Latvian squid, stern....stern but fair

Quote from PLAYLIFE :

She doesn't even have to turn left, never mind right.

So you pretty much completely ignored the second page and a part of the first one to come to that statement?

Well that sounds pretty interesting, although I was thinking about buying rFactor just for the hydroplane mod where obviously, no tires are needed.


I'm now finding myself a bit in a dilemma, should I buy netKar PRO or rFactor? Hmm....

Well IMO it's better in a way then rFactor's physics.

I mean in rFactor you get that feeling that no car other then the F1 has a rear anti roll bar and every time you over do it, it's impossible to retake control while in Evolution the problem is a bit solved.

I hate my bloody driver! It's as if he's one of those hot shots from a cheesy American movie about racing!

Don't make me laugh.

Don't start it, please!

Happy new year, everybody! May all your wishes come true!

Hmmm, a go-kart track in LFS?

May I ask what is the point of this thread? I'm pretty sure you have been here for quite a while so you might have realized by now that pointing the finger at someone is a no-no on the forum, plus I wouldn't be too mad since the ban will go in a day.

Quote from Tim_J_23 :

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH

Do you seriously think people put a 572" Chevy BB in a car that's suppose to have handling like a glove on wheels?

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the Ultima GTR uses an engine that has suspiciously the same amount of power and pistons? And I believe that it handles like a glove since it's 5 seconds faster then a Ferrari Enzo around the Top Gear track.

And I'm glad that didn't happened.

So it wasn't actually that bad?

Quote from Mp3 Astra :

It was written yesterday by a guy called Bmb... You're kidding, right? this is just shameless advertising for your review... why didn't you just say that?
Anyway, I guess what "the reviewer" (you) wrote is kind of true (if a little list-like), apart from choosing 3 factions between racing, drifting and crooze, where you further increased the divide between the groups by insulting them.

I just simply didn't wanted to be flamed for trying to write a review.

After going trough the previous ,similar thread I think that some of us might presume that other gamers can't actually write a full review on our beloved game without missing or blowing out of proportion something, at least that's what I feel.

But while watching some of the Zero Punctuation videos on The Escapist, I decided to visit their forum where I stumbled upon a review on LFS. Now I don't know if he's one of us that play the game on a daily basis or a simple ordinary gamer but I think that he wrote a pretty good review. Although I don't like his cheesy jokes and comparison it's never the less better then what the previous moron did but I will just give you the link and let you decide that

Should I prepare the flame weapons?

Indeed
