I miss the days when they had killer video card deals.

PC gamer? You mean you're a console port player.

HDR is not a gimmick, lol.

Good find on Xcom. Amazon is notorious for jacking prices after even a little interest is shown, so I wouldn't hesitate on this.

People bitching about DLC's are living in the past. Games take 5 years to develop now. It makes sense not to reinvent the wheel and make some DLCs for it. Bioware games are always good for 40 hours. They are steals entertainment wise at $50-60 (the same price new games have been for 20 years!!!)...

They're a publicly traded company so its their job now to be greedy af. I can just imagine a full screen Kohls or Target ad everytime I click to launch a game. Maybe not right away, but it would happen. I see it as a waste of time for them, but who knows some Farmville and Candy Crush players...

IV was the most fun for me. I loved hearing the "clink" of a new iron source popping up from a mine next to my city. The unstacking of units in V was both bad and good. On the plus side it eliminated the "super stacks" that combined awesome defense units with great offensive units. However, it...

These ultra wides going the way of the dodo bird.

One word: why?

It sounds from the previews they improved the "exploratory" factor over HR. That was really my only complaint with HR, most the levels felt a little claustrophobic. As usual with Deus Ex, the graphics are good, but not spectacular. Hopefully hacking is a little more rewarding and challenging...

Solid deal on the 512. IMO the 500 Samsung Evo is a better deal when it goes on sale because you get an awesome 5 year warranty compared to 3 on the Transcend.

It's a pretty laid back, slo paced game. A bit MMO ish in some aspects. Quests respawn, items respawn, monsters respawn. I enjoyed it, but its not a blockbuster.

Amazon claims another. They won't have to price match anything in 2 years because they will have no competitors. Your future Geforces will be costing $700, glad I won't be the fool buying them.

They're made to excel in very high lit areas, so doubt they consider backlight bleed a defect on this line. Hopefully they let you return it, but they might want a "smoking gun" type of defect especially being a refurb.

Its $600. The 27" was like $150 ;) http://www.necdisplay.com/p/desktop-monitors/pa302w-bk-r
