Thanks for the advice. My only issue is that, unless I'm looking in all the wrong places, building the same build myself with a decent power supply and gtx 560 is looking to cost £750+. Dropping to an older processor only seems to save me £20-30. I'm suspect the psu is a cheap CiT one but I...

Cheers for the comments. I think I may go for it and look at upgrading the graphics card and power supply later on.

Greetings fellow escapists. I'm looking at making a move into gaming more on my computer, which will require me to get a new pc since the current laptop has a terrible graphics card. I am aware that I could build one myself, however I don't think I would be overly confident in doing this...

^That for starters. Probably the other reason why the "hardcore console gamers" aren't flocking to digital downloads is since for those that can be downloaded from the live/sen(whatever the psn is called now? I have it and still don't know...) tend to retail at the same price or higher than the...

Would I be right in saying that this is the same Michael Pachter who claimed a while back games like CoD would need to move to subscription based in order to make decent return on the time spent being played? Just checked and yup...

I don't. My point was that imagine if whatever fps you're currently enjoying (if none then the last one) kicked you out of half the lobbies you entered unless you were willing to pay another amount which is more than you paid for the game itself. Other games can do it properly where you just...

As far as I've seen there is a great deal of difference in the map rotation issues in WaW and MW2, so comparing them really doesn't work. I've dealt with a lack of map packs in each of the cod's since 4 which are: - in 4 there was no problem you would never see a map you didn't own. - in...

"We were number one... we crushed the competition... when we compete we win" Alright then, if you're so amazing go and launch one of those titles in the pipeline which will make competitors jealous in November. Lets see how it does in sales when it's up against the likes of CoD, Battlefield...

Just a point, I thought that was a downtime of 2 weeks, not days? In which case sony giving 2 games for a downtime about twice as long is pretty much even in terms of benefit, however they should really give people the option of having store credit in case they have all the available games that...

Trophies are quite good in that you can compare the trophy level and number of each type of trophy obtained. Makes it easier to see if someone has a high ranking from a heap of small achievements or if they actually go to complete the game and get platinum's.

Take it you didn't bother to actually read the article on this? They fully admit that the 102 quadrillion are from minor tint variations, not including them or body type differences there are still apparently another 9 million differences (across both factions).

Yeah I know it was two days after and this info should have been released as soon as possible, my point was that it wasn't "Sony hiding this shit all week" as the original quoted post had claimed, besides I might as well point out that on top of cc info they may well also have your name and...

You should pay more attention to the wording of their announcements if you think this was hidden and didn't have any clue about it. The update that was posted on the 22nd (2 days after they went offline) stated there had been an external intrusion into the system and in order to verify the...

I don't see how this is considered news to be honest. I mean that in the sense that this is relevant to people who are now over 40, and were gaming in the first and second generations of consoles. The amount of change that has taken place over the past few years makes this, as far as I care...

I think games are fairly priced compared to days gone by, I remember buying FFIX for £40 and games for the N64 for about the same, so 2 generations on to be paying the same price is good going. However, in terms of how much I'm willing to pay, the "issue" comes with just how quickly the price...
