    Will you be getting Final Fantasy XIII?

    Based on the comments from the Japanese version apparently it's not that great, gameplay wise. A lot of negatives coming from being way too linear (the first 20-30 hours is just straight line), but nonetheless pretty graphics. I'll still be getting it though. One of the well-known Japanese...

    Deciding between Q9550 or Q6600

    Deciding between Q9550 or Q6600

    Currently thinking about upgrading to replace my 3 year old X2 4200+ with 1GB of ram; which is pretty adequate for what I do at the moment, but I feel it's time for a change. I plan to do some light overclocking with a decent HSF, but not anything hardcore. I've narrowed down my choice to...
