    Need a case, maybe PSU suggestion...

    While i appreciate the time, and the post, all the information you are asking for I basically do not have, and will not have until later in the year, so i will just continue to frivolously look at cases. I'll probably just opt for a mid tower to make sure i have enough room for everything.

    Need a case, maybe PSU suggestion...

    I've been out of the computer building game for awhile now, and am going to soon be upgrading--soon being within the year. That being said, American Express for some reason wants to give me free money if i spend some money soon, so i am looking for a case for the future (Since i figure cases are...

    Steam Summer sale coming?

    Hoping for a Transistor and Child of Light sale...but that's asking a bit much probably.

    Best Video Games

    Top 10 games...(I misunderstood the OP, let me rethink this for a minute...) I almost always use these two games because they are some of my favorite games ever, but... Bioshock Red Dead Redemption (I know this is not on PC, and it's a shame, but it's that good...) Mass Effect 2 Halo (1 & 2...

    Are gaming monitors worth it?

    Almost seems like there is no winning when it comes to desktop monitors. I actually used to love my CRT monitors, and since those went away it seems like I am more and more disappointed... Seems like you have to spend a large amount of cash in order to get a rig capable of running a 144hz...

    WCCFTitan Z SLI Vs R9 295X2 Crossfire 4K Benchmarks Finally Appear

    So what you're saying is that at my 350-400 dollar GPU price point, i can not expect to be gaming on 4k anytime soon...

    Going through a period where gaming is making me sick

    Yeah, i get what you're saying, for whatever reason certain games have made me motion sick, and they are kind of few and far between. Beyond good and Evil made me feel sick, which was too bad, because i liked the game...i could barely play original Far Cry because after 20-30 minutes i had to...

    Anyone else ready for a WW2 shooter again?

    Yeah, i loved the WW2 genre...never really burned out on those games like everyone else seemed to. I can still remember the noise those M1 Garand's make.

    What are the best games I missed

    Bioshock... Mass Effect Series... I dunno, ten years is a long time man! Or maybe you could just get into World of Warcraft and play that for the next ten years.

    Dreamcast Games

    Man, this is like just in my wheelhouse. I loved me some Dreamcast...I hope you got all 4 controllers with it, because i feel like this system was designed specifically with couch co-op in mind. But you are on a pretty good path already... I loveddd Skies of Arcadia, and Gradia 2. I hope both...

    Anyone else looking forward to Wildstar?

    The real problem is that MMO's have all become mindless clones of one another...with the only real changes in gameplay being to add action combat--which has never really been done very successfully (see games like Ninja Gaiden on Xbox) in an MMO. The action combat is typically pretty repetitive...

    Five underrated and underplayed PC games

    Oh, my, my, all you elitist gamers. Dumping on Dragon Age 2 as per usual... Was it a great game? Probably not...was it the travesty everyone in the world would try and tell you is the case, no--of course not. It was probably a 7.0. I honestly enjoyed it, but thought it was worse than the...

    I guess I'm getting old... can't play certain games anymore:

    Are you guys kidding? I swear at around age 24 i noticed an almost imperceptible, but noticeable difference in my gaming abilities. I was never the best, and still do pretty well at my age now, but i am much worse than i was before hand. But yeah, at 24, i noticed something was wrong, because...

    To Anyone Who Loved Everquest- or Challenging MMO's

    I'm not sure i understand the venom/grudge holding that is going on towards Brad. Yes, the game did not come out the way he wanted it, or that i wanted it for that matter. I played the game, and some of the game play content early on was actually great. I think it's ridiculous to say the game...

    What are your favorite Computer Game Sound Tracks?

    Halo released on PC! That game had a great soundtrack. WoW had some tracks that were downright majestic. Skyrim was very good also. I'm sure there are about a million others that were fantastic.

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    Look, i know you enjoy the game, you know i did not enjoy the game. Let me play a scenario for you. I was in the game, and this was just a random moment, not like a defining moment, but one that just happened to occur. I was fighting 3 skeletons at a time, and i used the hotkey to lock onto said...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    I played the MMO Rift in beta, i said, this game is not going to last because it has no staying power, and it's almost a carbon copy of WoW, with W:AR public quests thrown in. Everybody in the beta forums went bananas. The game sold extremely well for a month or two, then everyone vanished...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    Sorry i'm not a psych major--i found it tedious. But i asked for this thread to be closed long before that. Also, i found the reference valid. Popularity has no bearing on anything in regards to its validity. edit: In fact, i reported my own post in order to petition a lock--turns out mod's...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    I am no longer playing. I felt annoyed that i was not "good at it", then i realized i had all the skills to venture through the game to the end, but no patience to do it, so i quit. I can block, i can sit there and block all game long, it's just not any fun to me. I honestly can't think of...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    It's popular because it's difficult. Napolean Dynamite was popular, that did not make it worth watching. Nazi's were popular in Germany at one time, and still is to some people. What does the popularity of a game have to do with the enjoyment of it? That argument is asinine. All it means is...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    I admitted i was frustrated and just venting. I understand other people can feel one way and not another, which is actually why I was asking what people found rewarding about the game, after doing some investigative work, i found that people like their patience being tried--I have admitted. I DO...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    Yes, yes he was. Thank you for actually responding like a human being. This is what i had to put up with for venting my frustration. You really didn't even do that and they are still treating you like a child because you did not approve of a game that they seem to be very much in love...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    Thanks for bringing nothing to the table except the obvious. I came back because i went back to see why i had been so frustrated with this thread--do you not have a long term memory or something? I came back because i was having so much fun with BF4 i wanted to see why people were so in love...

    What you said at first actually makes me laugh...You could not be more right. I wish people would respond to my rational points that i have made numerous times.

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    Patience is not a skill. It's a personal attribute, you either have it or you don't. It's like being depressed, you're either depressed or you are not, you can train yourselves to have or avoid both, but there's no skill involved, only knowledge and understanding. The combat is not precise at...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    The story is extraordinarily cryptic at best. I'm certainly not going to sit there and write down the two sentences of nonsensical dialogue so that i can make sense of it later. It just doesn't interest me. I mentioned Ninja Gaiden because they are similar, no matter how you may trick...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    Smackababy all you do is talk junk in like half the posts i see of yours. I don't value your opinion. I never played Ultima Online, because at the time it came out i was probably like 10. My friend played it, apparently it was really easy to grief others, and that being the case, i'm not shocked...

    Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen

    Basically, and i have no real information--other than what i have read--is that the game was forced out the door 6 months early by sony, and their staff was cut. So the game came out in an unfinished state...I really loved the game for what it was when i played it, but the further one got...

    Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen

    I'm not sure i saw that answered. I certainly hope they will have those things. Sounds like a return to a more old school type of game.

    Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen

    Yeah, honestly i'm not a huge fan of kickstarter games, because some of them tend to look a tad...skimpy on graphics/content you name it. I am just hopeful for the game, we'll see where they land.

    Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen

    Not sure if this was posted, but i just found out about it, so i am making a new thread. I really enjoy the idea of an MMO going back to some of the old cornerstones of the genre--namely the feeling of community and exploration. There are a few things that they are changing that i wish...

    This game to me felt like getting dental work done... Dentist: "Now if you floss regularly you can avoid this terrible terrible pain in the future." Me: "Thank you sir, i will remember that, but in the meantime you're causing me incredible pain and suffering and that knowledge is not making me...

    I don't get Dark Souls...

    I love a challenge in games. I love the idea of playing a game where you start out with nothing and you have to build yourself up. There is very little feeling of progression to this game though. One of my favorite MMO's ever was EQ, it was considered a hardcore MMO, and still is considered to...

    Middle-earth:Shadow of Mordor [IGN Video Preview]

    To be fair, i found DA2 enjoyable. I thought the combat was improved from the first one. The story was much more shallow, but it wasn't abysmal. It just was not up to par with the first game. Yes the game was rushed, and it showed...that being said i'm looking forward to DA3, because i think...

    Does anyone else associate a food with a game?

    For me, it's more music... Like if i go back through my music and listen to certain songs, it will trigger memories of games i used to play through the years... Food was more when i was a kid, salsa verde doritos and mountain dew whilst playing halo with friends...
