strategy games i guess

i suppose that would be it

There are far more, better (IMO), exclusive games for Gamecube. I feel I can trust nintendo as they make games themselves, so they would know what would make a proper console.

omg ban me, wtf does it take

I dunno. When my fairly new PC has go down to 10x7 resolution, no AA or AF, just to play Oblivion, I get unhappy with the sate of computer hardware and games.

I could upgrade every 3 months like I used to, but im really saving up cash to actually own a house.

*hates renting so much*

if i were to get any console i'd get the wii

computer >>> xbox 360 or ps3

umm my third to last video card (6600GT) could play oblivion easily at 1680 x 1050

Exactly

seriously, LoZ IS the best series ever, no one can give a decent counter poitn to that

personally i'd take the half life series over anything and everything

mostly because of the mod support

i suppose, but you're eggo

Ummmm, you wouldn't mind lending me that graphics card, would you?


*hides swag bag*


Dammit Eggo, you have a damn sweet graphics card. At the mo, I've got an Radeon 9600SE. Far from the best, but it strangely handled Half Life 2 quite well.....

Still, I want an nVidia. They completely pwn ATI.

haha i think i'm selling my cards to a friend

i went from radeon 9800 pro to 6600GT to 7600GT and i'm waiting for my 7900GT right now

Thats quite an interesting ratio you used there Atman...

i use a 1600 x 1200 19" crt and a 1680 x 1050 20.1" widescreen LCD

once you play on widescreen, 4:3 is lame

What processor are you using, Eggo?

(watch it turn out to be an AMD 64 or something)

amd 64 3200+ running stock speeds i don't really see the need to spend more than $100-120 on a processor

ram, video card, and hard drive matter a lot more to me

nVidia graphics card = fuxs up ur comp++

really that's very interesting because my system is rock solid

True.

There's a computer market fairly near me, fortunatly, last time I was building a PC i nabbed a 160 gig HDD for about £50 :D

The main reason I really want an nVidia card is that I've got these stereovision glasses w/ appropriate program. Thing is, they work great on nVidia but my old nVidia was rubbish (GeForce 2 or something, dead old) and they barely work on ATI because their software only just supports them.

Tell you what though, it looked so pwn on HL playing it in 3D :D

nice

i almost got 2 160 gb hard drives for $30 each but newegg wussied out on me >:[

I had a nVidia Graphics card on my old computer, and it screwed up just about every program.

Hence the new computer.

My mate just got an 8300GT. Freakin sweet I tell you now.

err yeah my latest nvidia system build has been running continuously (powering two monitors as well) for about 6 months now with absolutely no problems

but that's just my experience

[QUOTE=overturned]My mate just got an 8300GT. Freakin sweet I tell you now.[/QUOTE]

hmm i could never justify spending more than $170-200 on a video card

terrible waste of money after that

I supose it depends on how much you'll [I]really[/I] benefit from it

well i mean by the time dx10 comes out everyone's current cards will be pretty much worthless

from the people who paid $150 to the poor suckers who paid $700+

but hey if someone's got that much more money than brains all the better for their experience (and nvidia's quarterly reports)

[QUOTE=Aes820]Oh, yeah, nice one.
Throwing insults at me is going to improve your position.

You're usually a good poster, so why don't you just neck up and take it without whinging.

Everyone knows the rules in this thread, lots of people have been banned for breaking them. You should be proud that you've gotten this far and only been banned once.[/QUOTE]
1) Im not insulting you, im insulting your actions.

2)If you consider me a good poster, why would it be nessecary to ban for that? A simple "hey joe, dont do that" would have been sufficient.

3)Proud? What did I do that should deserve another ban?

I did my part to not act like an idiot and spam for the multiple years Ive had this account, and I say Hi and this is the thanks I get? Jesus, you act like Im Jamie.

But then again, it doesn't hurt to have all 4.

Hurts the wallet a fair bit though.

How's it going, josh?

Pretty well actually

Just finshed dinner, which was wonderful

Chicken tikka masala + saffron rice + flat bread = omg

Now I'm unwinding to some Pat Metheny before I go play some video games :D


Yourself?

Too bloody hot - it's absolutely boiling in my room, and I'm trying to get some finger independance exercises done and it's just damn frustrating. Still, I had some cheese so I feel a bit better.

Cheese is pwn.

What kind of cheese?
