Looking forward to hearing your take on it, EP.

Just got PT Boats today Neal in the mail. ( requested the disc with two manuals )

Scared me when I had to activate the license key online. But that was just for about two seconds and I turned off the Internet again. I can't stand playing on the net especially when you need to remove mostly all your running background ( especially antivirus ) in order for the game to run well, also your computer runs a lot cooler.

Anyway I can see a big learning curve in this game as it is hard to get all the control keys down pat. So far I'm getting my butt kicked and I'm just starting out in tutorial #1.

I can now play the game offline and never use the disc, now that's cool.


P.S. I noticed in your video of SHV that you unscrewed the cable from the modem---Why? There is a rocker switch on the modem no? Other than that there is an icon ( looks like two monitors side by side ) that goes on the taskbar that is clickable for on and off the internet. Lot easier than unscrewing a cable connector.
