    I had a hard time getting into it. I started out as a mage but for some reason wa finding it really hard. I restarted as a Rogue and am now loving it. One of those games which has so much to do that its unlikely I'll ever get round to finishing it.

     

    I didnt' find it hard as a Mage, but I like playing as a Rogue more. Just started as one and finished the background quests.

    Can't wait to steal the shit out of everyone and opening a hell of a lot of chests. :D

    I hope it's not a problem to ask this kind of question in this thread:

     

    I'm reading a book ("The Colossal Book of Mathematics") and I'm having a problem with some wording:

     

    The topic is "The Calculus of Finite Differences", I won't go into detail with the exact procedure...

     

    I don't get the following:

     

    "The coefficient of x is obtained by taking half the bottom number from the first number of the middle row."

     

    The first number of the middle row is 8. And half the bottom number from 8 has to be 3.

     

    The problem I have: What is half the bottom number?

     

    I know that the bottom number in a fraction is the denominator. But I just can't figure out what half the bottom number means and how you get 3 as a result...

    I googled it, I tried dictionaries, wikipedia and blah blah.

    To cut it short: I'm not able to translate "half the bottom number" and therefore I'm confused :D (I bet it's simple and embarrassing for me after someone has explained...)

    Now I've made a start on my third essay, festively titled 'Discuss the differences between suicide, self-sacrifice and voluntary death.'

     

    Give me when finished :p Sounds interesting.

     

    So I've played some God Of War. Don't know what to do until I'll visit my uncle.

     

    Love 30 Seconds To Mars' new record.

    How was your day?

    Thank you =)

     

    I know now what I will buy me for christmas :D

     

    Edit: When buying the Harman/Kardon speakers I need cables. Again, I'm a noob, so I gotta ask: which ones? Are there some kind of standard cables I can buy, and can I connect the speakers to the receiver by using those? And do I need special cables to connect those speakers to each other?

    Ok, I might settle for the Harmon Kardon speakers but I want a receiver, as well. My problem: I'm a noob in terms of this.

     

    So I looked up some stuff and found this one:

     

    Onkyo TX-SR507B

    (again in German, I'm sorry...)

     

    My questions:

     

    1) How exactly does this work?

    Can I connect my PS3 and my 360 with an HDMI cable to the receiver?

    And then, do I need to connect my TV (LG LCD) with an HDMI cable to the Onkyo thingy and I can change what the TV shows by using the receiver? (grammar? Oo)

     

    2) What about the sound..I might buy the Harman Kardon speakers I mentioned above. I think I can connect them to the receiver. The only thing I need to do then is connect the PS3 and 360 by using an optical cable (for each of the consoles) with the receiver and I get 5.1 sound from the speakers while playing. Is this right?

    Didn't want to start a new thread so I searched and found this one. Hope it's alright to ask my questions here :p

     

    Ok, here goes:

     

    I want to get a 5.1 system (obviously). I might want do decide between:

     

    1) This. Logitech Z-5500

     

    or

     

    2) This. Harman Kardon HK TS 7 BQ (oO whatever).

     

    As jonSt already said the Z-5500 would be a good choice. But maybe the Harman Kardon has its amenities (is this the right word?) as well. Since I'm not into the 5.1-topic maybe someone of you guys could help me and tell me the amenities (again...?) of each of those systems and maybe recommend me one of those (or some other 5.1 system).

     

    Edit: Sorry that the links are in German...

    As MATtheHAT recommended I'm thinking about making a UK account.

     

    Just some questions about that:

     

    If I got a - let's say - US version of a game and want to download some DLC for that will I be able to use the DLC with this game?

     

    If I can and I download and install the DLC can I play the DLC with my other account, as well?
