Helps to read: he said it'll PLAY anything--not max out games. It will play anything. My friend has a 6870 and has played all games to date on max settings. This card performs well in game benchmarks. I will take a Radeon over Nvidia any day as the performance-to-price ratio is superior. I am currently running crossfired 6970's and will upgrade to a pair of 7970's when they launch.
The idea of this article is building the CHEAPEST PC that will play any game. It d...
lol I love the console remarks like "incomplete set-up" "Display? Mouse?" ....consoles are no different: Tv? Surround sound? HD cables? Almost EVERYONE has a pc of some sort--they can use the display/keyboard/mouse from that.
I won't get into why PC is the best platform--its obvious and would be fruitless. I just game happily on pc and play the exclusives on my 360/ps3.
The whole disagree-with-me-than-that-mea ns-i'm-right tactic is lame. Console kids think PC gaming is dead because they don't own one and haven't a clue what its about. Crysis came out when the consoles were 'new', so your theory about pc being temporarily popular do to the natural progression of graphics is retarded. Pc develops games that exceed console ability regardless if a console is a day old or 6 years. Consoles launch with graphical caps--pure and simple. Plus, MM...
Sgt.Johnson's Death (Halo 3) Metal Gear Solid one: Sniper wolf death MGS-3: Big Boss death in flower fields MGS-4: Big boss's death (original Snake) Half-Life 2 : Eli Vane's death Crysis 1&2: Prophet Halo 1: Ending "Just dust and echoes..." Streets of Rage--Bad ending Left 4 Dead when team member dies Witcher 1&2 (number of scenes)
Frostbite 2.0 IMHO is the best graphics engine to date. I am playing Deus Ex atm mostly, but took up Left4dead. The source engine STILL looks good! I think the Valve makes the best engines--even though they take a decade+ to release. The Source Engine 2 will be king! I am upgrading my PC Gpu for BF3--can't wait. The online community for PC is abuzz for this title too. I think its impressive the Ps3 and 360 can look as good as they do 6 years later. Hands up if you love technology!
S.O.C.O.M? lol To each his own, I respect your opinion. But your bit about the other Halos is simply ignorant. You not playing Bioshock is a loss for you as a gamer. Alan Wake? Another loss for you as a gamer. If all the titles you love are on the PS3 only I'd say you are secluded when it comes to games or have a limited taste. The fact of the matter is that each platform has games that every gamer should play. You disagree with that, than yes: you are deluded.
lol You ended up being more racist than he was. I'll throw mine in: they were lining up for penis enhancement. Found out it was Microsoft, said "They said we'll take my three inches else where!
Seriously though, he meant it as a shot at micro soft--as in there is no possible way MS could get attention there. Lighten up.
SO,,,we can't play online against Xbox people? Then I fail to see the point (from a PC gamer perspective.) This would be more meaningful if this was the case. Ok, I can see my avatar on windows...fun. I wish Steam would snazzy up their achievements system...Even the PS3 has a better achievement system than PC...
I ask the moderators: Why do you ban MEMBERS for 'trolling' yet allow blatant 'trolling' articles like this one? Its like not allowing pedophiles, but rapists are welcome. Its self-defeating. You allow these articles, clearly taking an unnecessary shot at Xbox, then will undoubtedly ban the trolls that follow...Where is your logic?
Anyway I have said this for months: I glance at these lists and frankly there are few 'exclusives' I care about ...
You misinterpreted what I meant. What I meant was that with the religious-blindfold removed (pretentious beliefs of a better place, judgment of our ethics/morals) we are starting to actually see what the human race is. Religion has enforced a false sense of entitlement; a belief we are a superior people that can earn 'God's' favor by doing X/thinking X. With religion crumbling away, we see what we truly are. I believe religion has done more bad for the world than good. But, we'...
OMG, please... We act 'bad' in games because we can--they're games. This is in no way a reflection of our own morality or ethical standards. What we are in games is not what we are in real life--we play to fantasize. The ones who can't see the difference are psychotic in their own right. The shooting scene in MW2? So what? Its a game. Manhunt? So what, its a game. If we are visually/emotionally effected by an entertainment medium--why are we subjected to the 'news'. Ta...
The franchise has yet to disappoint. Halo ODST was weak for me--but I have enjoyed all the actual Halo titles. Halo Reach was the best since Halo CE. I know this about Halo 4:
1. It will sell TONNES. This is almost fact.
2. It will be at the minimum a decent shooter (343 is leaving all mechanics in place i.e a continuation of Bungie's legendary formula.
3. The online play alone will push this game to stardom. As long as the online play...

Honorable mentions: Trine, Assassin's Creed (I feel the franchise has gotten a little stale for me), Stalker, Fear. With these lists there are always games I leave out, but hey...
I don't know where all this speculation is coming from. Just examine the historical precedent from Bethesda: Pc version looks better/has all the mod support, console versions look identical and even though this is so, they are compared via screenshots on N4G for months after launch. All bias aside, I truly think the best value is especially seen with Elderscrolls games on the Pc. The modding community just adds so much longevity to an already lengthy game. It really comes down to two thin...
I like intense violence and sexual themes. Bring on the elf-bondage.
