    Am I playing with people using consoles too?

    Shadowrun had cross platform play between xbox and PC through a microsoft service. That game turned out to be a flop though.

    Steam sales: How deep discounts really affect your games

    Producing games shouldn't be about profit. If we didn't have greedy corporations like ea popping out new versions of the same trash products multiple times per year it might be different.

    Steam sales: How deep discounts really affect your games

    The difference is the selling games discounted on steam still adds to the developers pocket and since it was bought on steam it can't be resold later. People selling to GameStop for $2 and then reselling it for $15 don't give anything back to the developers. Steam is good, Origin is trash.

    Diablo 3 Discussion Thread

    Multiple contradictions... you also aren't having fun if something is tedious, you also aren't enjoying yourself "very much" when you have to watch a movie instead of PLAYING the game.

    Page File w/ 2 ssds and a hdd

    I've used 1gig page file on my secondary SSD for three years on win7 x64 with 6gig of ram. SSD have a limited life cycle of reads and writes so using a really large or system controlled size isn't ideal and isn't needed.

    Diablo 3 HDTV disappointment

    I gave several suggestions. The other posts so far are simply reinforcing my original statement, it's not a diablo 3 issue. Go to your tvs input selection screen and make sure the mode is specifically pc or dvi-pc. If it just says dvi then look for an options button on that screen.

    Diablo 3 HDTV disappointment

    Desktop is minimal and not a great comparison. Try some other games. I had to update the firmware on mine to be able to manually type dvi-pc in the mode selection. You can also try messing with clearfont settings in the windows control panel. I'm sure your desktop is using a different font...

    Diablo 3 HDTV disappointment

    What brand is your tv and what input are you using. I have a 55inch lg and if I'm using dvi/hdmi input I have to set the "mode" manually to pc-dvi. After that it's still not perfect but text becomes readable. When I use analog input everything is perfect by default. This isnt a diablo 3 issue...

    Diablo 3 Discussion Thread

    No rolling starts and no login queue, good thing we had those stress and beta tests so they could change absolutely NOTHING. "but rolling starts aren't fair for leveling"...right because we are ALL playing right now.

    league of legend lag

    It isn't an FPS problem. Even if you had 15fps the game should still respond to input. It's riot servers. I was having lots of problems with random "lag". My fps is always 160-240 and ping 74-95, but I would see fights happening and not be able to do anything - ping never goes up. This has been...

    Diablo 3 Discussion Thread

    I wouldn't be surprised if Blizzard posted items for sale on the RMAH to control the games economy and make even more profit at the same time. Considering everything posted will be anonymous it will be even easier for them to get away with something like that.

    Driving my rig to a new place

    Wow, this is actually a serious post? What a joke. You will die long before anything in that pc gets damaged from riding in a vehicle. The only part that would have a possibility of being damaged from a giant bump would be a mechanical hard drive. The head could scratch the platter. Then again...

    League of Legends -- how many [H] regulars?

    They won't ever stop creating champions. This is how they make a large portion of money in a "free game". I started playing in 2009 and I don't like the majority of changes they made last year but I still find myself playing over and over. Name is same in-game.

    Playing Diablo II from flashdrive?

    To many read/write cycles for a cheap usb stick. Register your Diablo 2 cd key on battle net and you can download a fully patched client without cd requirements. You could also do a full installation of original then expansion then patch to current on the external drive. Its an older game so...

    Dark Souls live stream!!!

    This stream is TERRIBLE. Why is this kid grinding over and over for a measly 300souls? Go kill a boss or something, what a waste of time.

    Dark Souls Will Eat Skyrim's Face @ IGN

    Fail, you obviously haven't played newgame+ or ++ or ++++++++++. On my SL219 wearing Full brushwood is like wearing a paper sack. Trust me, you will learn to use roll A LOT. Full black tendency you will die with one failed parry. I'm hoping dark souls has A LOT more itemization and builds...

    Can 2 people work on 1 PC?

    This isn't even logical. Cheap doesn't have to mean bad, but using random shit like Ashrock(aSRock?) is bad, they only have one or two decent boards. I used a cheap solidstate gigabyte xfire atx mobo for three years overclocked and stuffed full. It is actually still going strong in one of my...

    Can 2 people work on 1 PC?

    Just because you can get a multicore processor doesn't mean the rest of your system can handle two full loads. Running multiple instances of games in the background is different then wanting to run two games at full load. Referring to the guy mentioning WoW. You are only rendering the...

    Fried CPU?

    I have an evga x58 sli micro, and it has been stable with an i7 at 4ghz for about six months. I was looking to get more out of it for folding so I turned ht and virtualization back on and was working on getting it stable. It was late and I was tired and basically misread a voltage type and...

    If I buy this $26 SC2 I can't play with my US friends can I?

    Way to be selfish. You live in chile play on fucking chilean servers. This isn't DRM its to keep latency low. It's a fast paced APM-strategy game, a lagger always ruins a match.

    I played it and beat it with 100percent side and main quests done in 7h 36min. After killing the final boss i was level 19 and 1/2 and spent 15 min or so getting level 20 from the unicorn camp.

    First mATX config; suggestions?

    As I said, I've already swapped parts and ordered them. I'm not using the v351...I said I swapped to Da Box 100 from lan-gear, which will work fine with the h50. I did swap ram to 3x2 config for now. Crossfire doesn't need to be officially supported. It has two full speed lanes and you have a...

    Well I pretty much rethought most of the system and ordered the parts Changed case to Da Box 100 Changed Mobo from Asus to EVGA Changed GPU to 5850 Changed RAM from 6x1 to 3x2 Changed SSD from WD to OCZ I'll throw up some pics soon.

    Rockstar removes DRM for Max Payne 2 using pirate code

    There are some really dumb arguments here. Think of it this way, microsoft and other devs have precompiled files and data you can attach to your own programming so you don't have to waste all that time recoding the "wheel". The pirates make some modifications to the game, why go through the...

    Did you ever get flashbacks from gaming while not playing?

    I get "flashbacks" all the time. I've been playing games since I was four or so, and lots of things in real-life trigger a synapse from the past to activate. I usually remember what game and where in the game it took place. I have a photographic memory and it is kind of annoying sometimes to...

    Am I the only one that cant get any other gun that the Bastard in Metro 2033?

    The first time you get an upgrade is an AK from when you go inside the town through the vent. If you go back the way you came his AK is leaning on the back vent wall. You can also pick one up from any of the guys you kill in that section. You are using a trainer....why the fuck are you worried...

    Dante's Inferno ? Is it a [H]ell of a game?

    I liked the game a lot because of the setting it is based off of. Ill agree the final two levels are trash. The main reason it is worth buying is for upcoming dlc and support. Coop multiplayer fighting custom levels, etc, in march.
