Hi all. Kinda been lurking on this one as I am still uber pissed/embarrassed about Sat. We are still investigating the exact cause of the power issues because they were completely bizarre. The power was certified by a sparky and the infrastructure was qualified for 150 rigs so to have things blow wa...

Right after everyone has gone home just kidding, I reckon late Saturday afternoon when we do the prize giving for COD

Sweet the info page has been updated. Please spread the word peeps. Check out the cool stuff we have rustled up for y'all http://www.pcformat.co.za/modules.php?n ... age&pid=54

Guys there is a little more to this tale. I will be updating the info page a little later today. The prizes will be pretty sweet but moreover there may be a certain CPU/GPU vendors products available at below retail :whistling: Additionally, if you cannot register on Langames please feel free to sen...

Greetings all. I think y'all be posting in a troll thread, but just in case I will respond anyways. Truth be told there is a lot more to a magazine layout than pic to word ratios. There is a fundamental difference between print and other media and without going into a long analysis of communication ...

LOL, it's not they; it's Dawid, Brett, Grandma's boy and myself...you know where we live and if we stray then somebody gonna get a hurt real bad

That's right folks, for the same price you will now receive a 64 pg A5 GEAR supplement with PCFormat. It will be done by the same editorial team that do PCF with the addition of Dawid (Panorama's new online Ed and gaming nut). I have just finished the redesign and everybody is working furiously to g...

The best part about joomla is I won't have to go into the #^!@ing database in 3 places just to update it

Sorry peeps, they are in the process of migrating the server and its taking longer than we thought. I will upload as soon as the database is secured with our new host

Hey all, our appologies for the delay. We are still finalising the deadlines for next year but it seems like Feb and March are going to remain a little late unless we revert back to a special edition in Jan. The holidays, combined with the printers, CDT and suppliers being closed, gives us one month...

3 pages of posts on the antivirus threeway, nice. I guess we will be doing more software then :D Long story short the piece was a clash of the three big releases for the period. All three came out at the same time and all three have full local support. FYI the Kaspersky was a 30 day trial but since ...

lol, storm in a teacup. Glad you are sorted and sorry that you were not aware, I wasn't really sure how to let people know. I will be honest, we were kinda hoping for a different reaction as the reasoning behind January's inclusion was that we did a full issue and not the usual copypasta special edi...

Hey peeps, sorry i got to the storm in a teacup late. As many correctly deduced, its doubtful that NAG where having a dig at us as we have always had a clearly stated policy on reviews, which boils down to test code = preview and not review. The other issue regarding the movies; I took the poll into...

Hi all, sorry I haven't had time to jump in earlier but it seems some of us had work to do ey dragonkiss? On a serious note, the l33t speak in the mag stops now. Outside of memes and other special features it is gone. We finally have a sub-editor and I would like very much for the magazine to return...

Hi All We have detected and a trying to track down an issue with a few of the apps in the NVIDIA Power Pack on December’s cover disc. It seem that three of the really big exe files were corrupted in the compilation process. The effected files will be repeated on Februaries disc and include: Nurien A...

Nice, I am now closing this thread because I never won

Wait, was that the comps for FarCry 2, Sacred 2 and Fallout 3? Oh noes :cry: I never ever ever enter competitions, but the I though 'Ah what the hell...' so I entered these, and now you're telling me it was all for naught? It's a sign... :shock: Lol no, December's comp; it's for phoenix software an...

Shame guys, it's not all his fault, we all should have spotted it in the dummies. Grandma's boy will still be punished but that's because he doesn't know what the crouch button in COD4 does. Jokes aside, we have finally (after literally years of searching), found a full time Sub-Editor. She starts s...

You may very well have mow, I know PCF did them a few years back but for the first time in ages we have a team that actually play games. DAE, kb makes it sound like the regular LAN with us tagging along. We want sponsors, prizes, decent venues, unlimited caffeine and of course option 4. Plus: you've...

this is locked on account of KB being a noob, the proper poll is now up.

In light of everyone's excitement over killing the boyz and I in this thread: http://forums.pcformat.co.za/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=33279 we have been frantically meeting with the business types in our office to investigate PCF LANs. The LANs would be hosted by us, with prizes, sponsors, bells and wh...

Hi all, what I meant in my October ed's note was that if there is no WoW bundled for that month then the deal went pear shaped. I have just finished putting something together for December on the reasons why it never happened but since I hate cliff hangers here is the short of it: MiDigital promised...

Hi all, you know the drill. Please try to keep it clean and as a favour to me could we not mention the cover...ever

Thanks

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. Since November is now hitting shelves I am locking this bad guy.

If you didn't get a disc please drop me a mail, include your subscriber number if possible so I can proceed to murder people.
