Yea, interesting.   Also, was that the GOT theme music they were playing towards the end of the episode?

Hmm, I didn't notice. I've still got a few minutes left of the episode. I'll check it out tonight.

This show is going to be my Go to show, like Breaking Bad, Person of Interest & Game of Thrones Quality & I got all that from the first episode!...

 

I have no idea how many times i've watched the opening now... It's just amazing!

So HBO are releasing episodes on the online streaming services before airing them?

I guess? I just happened upon it. They don't usually do that. Maybe it's a mistake.

Go watch the original film (or the Simpsons parody) - which is great then get excited for the rest of the series :)

I think i'll watch the film after this season! I don't want spoilers :D

Ahh, that would explain it.  Thought of GOT as soon as I heard the music.

Yup! don't worry I thought the same! Ramin Djawadi is one of my all time favorite Music Composers these days!

I watched the first episode again, are you talking about the music playing during the saloon robbery? It is a rendition of "Paint it Black" by the Rolling Stones, which is awesome. Can't wait for the soundtrack, not to mention the rest of the season.

I have been looking for a proper copy of that song but I haven't gotten lucky yet. Very awesome cover + scene.

Yep, really good so far - great production value, intriguing concept, terrific cast. I haven't seen the movie, but I'm guessing from what we've seen so far is that the robots will rebel at one point. My only concern is what happens after that, and if they manage to keep the story interesting going forward from that point.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Jaybonaut · Posted

      Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.

      You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By cleverclogs · Posted

      Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?

      Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
