Was going to wait for the 8xxx series, but this is tempting.
Would a 7950 suffice for me? I play at 1920x1200 (sometimes 1920x1080) on a 27" screen. Or just get a 7970 and leave no doubt about maxing out everything :)
I un-installed it. What I missed most was the lack of synergy between classes. To give one example, in d2 you could have a pally with concentration aura, another one with fanaticism, necro curse with amp damage...this made it ridiculously fun to chop through enemies. They didn't need to make...
This thing was a beast and still has a bite :)
I've been using the sapphire 5870 for about 3 years now. Left it at stock. No issues at all. To my surprise, it even let me play metro 2033 (advanced dof off, everything else on) and crysis 2 with fraps at 1920x1080 on a 27" monitor. Last thing...

Is anyone around lvl 28-35? I just started act 1 NM. I think I should roll a few new classes so I have a spread across levels depending on who is on :)
I don't have the beta. I'm just reading the forums when I can. Something I loved about D2 was the synergies between different classes and aura stacking: For example:
Paladin 1 = Concentration aura
Paladin 2 = Fanaticism aura
+Might Aura from act 2 hireling
Necromancer = Amplify Damage...
I installed skyrim a couple of days ago and have done nothing but mods for the past couple of days (most of the top 100 on skyrimnexus and tweaks from [h] and that nvidia tweak page).
The screenshot below shows what it currently looks like and I'm very pleased with the results. This is on...
Hey all, I'll be picking up skyrim this week. Looking at the mods of this game is a little overwhelming , but I've been able to narrow it down by checking the skyrim nexus site as well as the first page of this thread.
This is what I've come up with so far: (keeping vanilla feel as much as...
I'm not surprised, Blizzard games almost always come out later than expected. This gives more time to catch up on my backlog :)
Because when D3 is released, my backlog will mysteriously cease to exist.
Killed the dark ones?? Looks like Last Light assumes you chose the default ending in metro 2033.
The gorilla looking things at the end must be the librarians. People had a hard time with them. However, a fully charged volt driver or hellsing to the face works wonders :)
I still can't beleive my 5870 let me play metro 2033 with FRAPS at 1920x1200. I had d3doverrider running in the background for vsync. As long as I had Advanced DOF off, I can honestly say 95% of the game was smooth. Yes, there were some slow/choppy parts like when you first meet Hunter or if...
When I first read that, I couldn't help but think that I was reading some sci-fi script. How many times have you seen a flick where they talk about ion propulsion drives and dwarf planets...Then a split-second later, the hairs on my arm stood up, as this is no longer fiction, but science fact...
Damn, that trailer was bad ass.
I love Metro 2033...I mean I fucking love it, but on the ranger hardcore difficulty, if you get detected, you're pretty much fucked. So, I hope Last Light allows usage of more "loud" weapons, without it being your death sentence for the rest of the level :)
My steam sale "damage" was only $5 for Aliens v Predator. I'll start it up once I finish Mass Effect 2. Because I'm a completionist, I have to finish a game completely before moving on. WTB more hours in a day :(
I know I'll probably forget some, but here goes off the top of my head:
FPS

Wolfenstein 3D -- My first true computer game!
Doom I & II -- First ever Deathmatch!
Quake -- Internets Deathmatch!
Half Life series
RPG

Diablo I & II
RTS

Warcraft series
Starcraft series...
Sorry for the necro, but there seems to be two different guides for newbies to set up the folding@home client. There is this thread started by nitrobass24 on 9/29/10 and the sticky has the "multi-core SMP" client by Zero82z posted 4/26/10. So, I figured I'll follow the more recent one.
I'd...
Yes, I have been having issues with Netflix on the PS3 lately ( I have the 80G fat). As stated earlier, I've had to turn it off and turn it back on which seems to work most of the time.
It's fine on the PC.
It feels like all this started happening after the PSN was brought back online after...
I haven't had time to read up on it, does anyone know how much of the game is driving vs. combat?
I don't mind the driving parts, but I would prefer if it was something like 20:80 in favor of combat.
Not as bad as some of you, but I wish it was smaller.
