    Some cool wallpapers I found

    I'm sorry, what? Click the spoiler tag. Did you click that? That has all the files from the first .zip IN IMGUR ALBUMS. Do you know what those are? Did you try that?

    Some cool wallpapers I found

    Well that's annoying, just browse the imgur stuff then. I did. About nine full imgur albums of them, actually. EDIT: about 1300 of them, the largest of which is 6000x3000.

    Some cool wallpapers I found

    Hey Escapists, long time no-see. Well I got bored a few days ago and went searching for a bunch of awesome space and space/future related wallpapers, from phone size, to multi-monitor goodness. I thought y'all would enjoy at least a few of these, so here goes! Direct dl of a .zip file...

    Skyrim's tech specs

    Actually, a few games have. Crysis 2 (which led on consoles) has "optimum" requirements of a 560ti or a 6850 for 30fps at 1920. Metro, which led on PC, and is insane, had the recommended of a 470 or a 480. It depends if Skyrim is doing any fancy DX11 stuff, then it'll be bumped up a bit, at...

    Skyrim's tech specs

    ^^^^ Someone knows what's up. They'll probably just say "Any quad core processor," and they'll probably go at least as high as a 460/whatever the AMD equivalent is (5850?).

    Does Anyone Think We'll Get Our Hoverboards In

    How do you think they'll work? If they're using jets, then they are going to need a VERY large amount of fuel if you want to go very far. If they're using fans, THOSE FANS ARE GONNA HAVE TO GO SUPER FAST!! which will take either a very powerful battery (plausible, with some Xenon compound which...

    Poll: Controlling soldiers: a hypothetical question.

    No. That lower the fighting potential of the soldiers and thus would not be advisable for any military. Soldiers would still need to be put through some sort of training to get them fit and ready for combat, you would then have to train those controlling the soldiers, buy the hardware to control...

    Friend getting a gaming laptop.

    Too much for too little. Get a Lenovo ideapad Y series or something comprable when they go on sale. That GPU will be out classed fast, and getting a slightly less powerful model for much less money is quite worth the save. Also good luck every doing anything not plugged in with that, I get about...

    Please uninstall Ad Blocker.

    As far as I know, there would be no way for the the ad site to tell if you were using adblocker. The Escapist would see it as a user who didn't click the ad, rather than being able to see if they didn't even see them. The only thing that would show a decrease in traffic seeing ads to The...

    Poll: Can the lack of iron sight in an FPS be a deal breaker for you?

    Iron sights are cool, but you don't need them. See Halo, or as you said all Valve games. None of those feel like they need iron sights.

    Bioshock Infinite

    No reason not to play the first two Bioshocks. They're both pretty self contained, 2 has a few tie backs, but if you know the general story of 1, you should be good. I liked 2 better than 1, and I have very little interest in Infinite, but I'll at least read some reviews before I decide if I...
