Valve does it again. Every multiplayer game they've ever done has
launched to severe, gamebreaking lag.

It's like playing on a 300 baud modem. Really.

Comparing the smoothness of Halo 3 to the SHITTINESS of TF2 is beyond
compare.

Good job, Valve. Way to *** up - AGAIN. Hey, how about another 3
years til the next HL episode?


speaking of crap software, how 'bout that Vista? or Media Center? I
upgraded to Home Premium recently as my Media Center 2005 box thought it
was really Media Center 2002, cut off all media services, and refused to
make new ones. so now I'm 3 days in, have much less hair, and I can still
only connect to my network if it's unencrypted. haven't even gotten to
the point where I can try out media sharing, which I'm sure will still be
fubared. so...is there anything that Microsoft really does right?


I have Vista Premium on my desktop. It's networked with encryption to my
360, another desktop and two laptops. Although it was a little more
complicated than XP (new security features) it was still fairly easy to do.
Maybe Microsoft isn't the problem. Just a thought.
