    Simcity??

    Was looking forward to this for a while now. Always been a Simcity fan. The new one looked pretty badass. You might have seen the commercials they've been playing lately. So I decided to pick it up on Wednesday & have yet to actually play a game. They made it online only, no single player &...

    Vibrating Right Side Dash After Ignition?

    Tried searching for this & didn't have any luck. Yesterday my car started making a really annoying vibrating noise immediately after I cranked the car up. It lasts roughly 10 seconds, then stops. Sounds like it's coming from directly behind the glove compartment. It's a fairly loud vibration...
