warhammer MMO Review

- Every MMO is always "in the works." The only thing that matters is how it compares against its competition at this current point in time, though there is always a possibility of a secret ultra-patch that will fix everything by the time the game's released in 9 days. - Casting right now in...

warhammer MMO Review

This game isn't as good as WoW, but it's more fun right now because WoW has been stale and boring for a while. Some keybinds are broken, you start out with only access to 1 battleground, the casting is very badly done with no lag compensation and lots of delays between spells, the graphics are...

Random: Anyone every play Star Control 2?

I got stuck and quit. I just don't have the hundreds of hours I used to put into a game to try every single possible thing to move on like I did back when I was a kid. There's a reason modern games make it clear what you're supposed to do next.

Baldur's Gate III in Development (Rumor)

I don't know if I like the idea of Bethesda making another Elder Scrolls, Fallout 3, and BG3. Those three were distinctly different games for me and it's doubtful they could keep the distinct feeling of all three franchises intact. I shudder to think of all three game feeling similar.

FINALLY, AFTER 10 LONG YEARS

My first thought was "somebody got to the Duke Nukem Forever trailer a little late"

Peter Molyneux new AI discovery

The same Peter Molyneux who later apologized for Fable sucking and lacking promised features (in his own words)? Why do I find it so hard to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Iron Lore goes down... (Titan Quest)

It appears that many anti-piracy arguments base themselves on POTENTIAL -- more precisely, POTENTIAL lost sales. I hope you keep this in mind next time you commit many POTENTIAL murders by using birth control or using any consumables that are toxic in nature or are packaged in toxic materials...

Sound Card + Headphones recommendations

Yes, I saw a few threads mentioning these cans, though when I posted I was hung up on whether there'd be any competitors of note like Grados or V6s. After a bit of looking around, it seems Grados mainly get docked for comfort issues, so I went ahead and bought the 555s since I'll be using them...

Sound Card + Headphones recommendations

I'm growing tired of the Realtek onboard sound I've been using on Vista x64. Does anyone know if an X-Fi would be a good upgrade? I also have an Audigy 2 sitting on a shelf. I also need a pair of decent headphones to go with these. I'm going to be gaming, watching movies, and listening to...

General Consensus of Vista and Gaming on PC?

I've been using Vista x64 for a while and the vast majority of games that I had problems with didn't have a problem with x64 (runs fine in x86 emulation wrapper), but with the OS itself. In 3dmark it's a lot slower on Vista than it is in XP, but in games I think Anand had an article that showed...

What should I get my wife for Valentine's?

I think it's an overall response to the others that focused more on the virtue of the fact that it was a man hitting a woman instead of a bigger person hitting a smaller person. You're making a reasonable point in seeing it as big person vs small person, and you make it easy to agree with...

The Witcher

I'm almost done the Witcher and it is a rather impressive game, from several viewpoints. The combat system is impressively bad. There are breaks in combat flow every time you sheath/unsheath your weapon which happens at least twice per fight. You are basically stunned while doing so, and...

For those of you with high end gaming computers

I don't know where people get the argument that you can only play PC games with superior graphics for 2 years then can't play any more for the last 2. Console specs don't improve either -- if your current PC hardware's graphics surpass current gen console graphics, then it will forever do so...

*** Official 8800GTS 512MB (G92) O/C Thread ***

I'm running an evga at 60% fan speed. I can finish 3dmark at around 850core 2200mem but its stability is worthless for gaming and even general usage.

*** Official 8800GTS 512MB (G92) O/C Thread ***

Apparently something borked and I can't select the 826 plateau anymore and the next highest setting is 836, so I had to choose the next lowest. I ended at 818 core, 1890 shader, 1062 memory stable overnight with temps peaking out at 64C. With this, I got a score of 15,277 in 3dmark06 (q6600 @...
