I would hardly categorize WoW or any other MMO for that matter to be in the same genre of multplayer games (as in a multiplayer game that doesnt require a daily subscription to play). It is a multiplayer game per say but not that to what I was comparing my argument too (Unreal Tournament, Counter Strike, Team Fortress 2 etc) and L4D came out on November 18, 2008. CoD4 was released November 16th of 2007 and has sold 10 million copies as of June of 2008. My statement was "since" UT2004. Now after CoD4, we could make the argument for L4D over CoD4 but I dont think L4D has reached the sales CoD has yet (and it hasn't really been released long enough to make those kinds of numbers). Anyways, I'm just saying it's one of the more popular games being played today on multiplayer which is why it shouldnt be changed from it's original game style / roots which it was created.

I do play WoW and own L4D but dont get into either so maybe I'm out of the norm and just dont care for those games as much as other gamers. But then again, I love CoD4 and I know your not big into it so we all have our preferences when it comes to games (i hate UT3 but you guys seem to love it. Though I was in love with 2004 for over 2 years after it's release)

I believe the switches in question only had one fan hole for ventilation anyway.
However, heat still dissipates from other places.

Vents are on the sides that were cut out and the device itself has about a half inch of clearance on all sides and 3 inches at the bottom. These are also meant to be put in a rack, but at the same time a network closet or NOC does not get as hot as that room.

You should give it another try. After this update if you disable the Bloom and FOV crud. I forget the exact name of the tick box. It feels like UT2k4 again and I love it. I was in the same boat as you in not liking it.

I waited forever for UT3 to be released.  When it finally came out, it was beautiful, but the gameplay was more frustrating than fun.  So I stopped playing it.

Fast forward to the relase of the 2.0 patch + Titan pack.  I play it regularly now and it is a lot of fun.  They fixed the gameplay "feel" issues, and i can appreciate the beatiful graphics and nifty additions UT3 brought with it.

 I honestly don't care how you guys want to play it.

So I can play it wearing nothing but a cock ring and no one would care....at the LAN's mind you!

Jesus, why does everything have to turn into a flame war.

This was my 2nd FITES event (1st being the 100ml in 2006 when I raped everyone harshly in quake 4) , and I had a great time again. The lack of sleep and abundance of drinking alcohol/caffeine put me half out of my mind, but I still managed to enjoy myself. Thanks to the FITES guys for running the event and putting up with deliriously annoying people like myself. I'll definitely try to make it to more of these events. Good times.
