Don't you guys know? Fans of Shadowrun will inherit the Earth...

Crimson zombies sound really lame.

But yeah I'd like to see it...

I liked part 2 because ammo was less scarce. Part 1 was a little japanese in the difficulty....

To the guy mentioning Codemasters is known for selling cheats....

If only you REALLY knew how much this is true!!!

As apparently you are too young to remember the Game Genie. This is what made Codemasters famous.

It wasn't making games that Codemasters originally made their money from it was an amazing way to cheat in almost ANY original NES game. They released codebooks every month with new cheats that would really work.

The damned thing was literally a piece of hardware that fit into the NES system that you put games into.

It was well worth the money.

Thanks Blue!

To those of you opposed to giving Facebook your business there is always Sony's VR headset that's in the works.

But honestly don't you want the device that has been perfected by John Carmack?

Say what you will about Rage I respect the man's intelligence. I think with all of the accomplishments he has made he is entitled to at least one fuck up am I right?

I really want to get into these games. I bought SR3 but it doesn't run well enough on my computer to enjoy it.

I have a piece of shit Athlon 64 X2 processor with a 9800 GT video card (which is basically the 8800 GT minus some kind of hardware video decoding).

Who would like to donate a decent low end videocard? Jesus Christ, man I remember back in the day I ended up spending something like only twenty bucks on a Geforce 2 MX and man that thing was a nice upgrade over my previous video card, whatever it was as I don't remember.

I will never buy a Coolermaster product again after the two power supply units I got started making noises that was apparently electricity randomly shooting out inside the unit. TWO IN A ROW!!!!! Not to mention the fan failed on one of them. Garbage products, garbage company.

I don't give a shit what that magazine says. With Assassin's Creed and Battlefield 4 I have all that I want for now.

Back up people, I am ready to unleash the power of my Athlon 64 X2 2.something GHz 2 GB RAM 9800 GT MONSTER!!!!!

RAWR!

Good luck with your dog Blue.

OK, I read it. Maybe the Xbox One isn't the significant fail that it seemed to be. Apparently it has some advantages over the PS4.

We will have to see what the final performance benchmarks are, however and I have no intention of even considering a purchase of either console until the numbers come in.

No, I do not want to learn more about the design philosophy of an under-powered console.

The problem? Linux. I don't think Valve would appreciate you doing your beta testing on a different OS.

That is why you would get one, you know. It's not your machine.

You don't know them very well:

Can I hack this box? Run another OS? Change the hardware? Install my own software? Use it to build a robot?
Sure.

Well! Isn't that nice?

This sucks. I missed BF3 and now it looks like BF4 is going to sail by too. I don't even have the 1 megabit connection required.

I am extremely happy that there will be REAL GPU's in this thing. Rather than the fucking garbage Microsoft and Sony think constitutes "next-gen".

So I had been told that my 9800GT would not work well with BF3. But now this BF4 beta tells me an 8800GT is OK for low settings so what the fuck? I'm doing it.

Sure wish I still had my Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 3 GHz... I'm on a 2.6 GHz Athlon X2 at the moment and MAN does it suck!

I can't believe they are saying a 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo is equivalent to a 2.8 GHz Athlon X2... That's just ridiculous!

EDIT: I just realized they want me to have at least 4 GB of memory... and I only have 2.

It all depends on how much money I'll have available when the time comes. I might do a 4 GPU slot mobo with 2 Titans and buy a couple more in the future if the need arises with a 1080P monitor for now.

What concerns me right now is input lag. There is a very specific model from Asus that is designed for professional gaming with a special gamer mode that reduces input lag to below human perception. I have seen the comparison between this monitor and a CRT and you cannot tell the difference.

I do not know if I can get this feature in a resolution higher than 1080P. I contacted Asus support about it but they were clueless and just gave me some random high-res model that didn't say anything about a gamer mode.

It's quite depressing that I can't get competent support on this issue.

You never know how bad the input lag will be on these LCD monitors. The one I'm currently using is reasonable and I've gotten to the point where I don't even notice it anymore.

Maybe I should just take a chance and go with a random high-res Asus monitor and hope for the best.

EDIT: By the way, I just want to commend everyone for engaging in civil discourse. Many times on Youtube and Facebook some asshole starts talking shit about anything you say and it really ruins the experience.

I hate it when they do this. I remember Big Red One on the original Xbox. It was a console-only COD game and it looked like SHIT. It was built for the Playstation 2 and ran horribly.

The Xbox should have HANDLED this game but it ran horribly. The framerate was locked I believe so that it ran identically to the PS2 version.

This is beyond doubt as COD 3 came out at some point and looked FANTASTIC and ran great!

"I'm sorry, but why on earth are you buying two GTX 690s when the R9 290X is specifically designed for 4K resolution monitors and you don't have to worry about your system being taxed?"

"The leaked benchmarks peg the Radeon R9-290X as equal or slightly faster than Nvidia’s GTX Titan"

The GTX 690 is more powerful than the R9-290x and the Titan. The only problem is I can only have two of them I think, whereas 3 or 4 R9-290X's would be superior.

Not sure what I'm going to do about this.

I think I will go with Nvidia. I have seen the inconsistent delivery of frames on Radeon cards and it looks absolutely horrible.

Keep in mind that these systems are supposed to be profitable. If they had taken a hit on the consoles like they did with the PS3 and made up for it in other places and invested more in a better video card we would be better off.

You console gamers can enjoy your 30 FPS while I, on the other hand, have every intention of buying two GTX 690's at wholesale value (should be about $333 each).

The only problem is 4k resolution will still tax this rig. God damn it.

I gotta be honest with you though. Console gamers will have a better experience than I will despite the fact that my rig will produce much better graphics.

Why?

Because PC versions of games are BUGGY AS HELL!!! The last **4** games I have bought, including a Grand Theft Auto game and Assassin's Creed, have been so fucking buggy that I couldn't even play the damned game!!!!!!!!!

EDIT: I thought I would tell you about those two games.

The GTA game had a bug where the textures wouldn't load. The character would be standing in outer space.

The Assassin's Creed game had a fatal bug where your save would revert hours back in gameplay. I put up with it 2 or 3 times until a big one happened and I just said "FUCK THIS SHIT!!!!".

The worst part about these bugs? The developers did NOTHING to fix them over the YEARS!!!!
