I love PC gaming

[C47]

list "tons of games" that pc doesn't get

 

fug, just name one game that pc doesn't get that's even worth playing other than red dead.

 

Forza, but I like racing games...

you can't even play trackmania on xbo bro

[carpanfan96]

TrackMania and it's sequels are amazing. Probably the best racing experience you can get, especially if you like building tracks that are insane.

:buys all 3 consoles, extra controllers, hard drive upgrade, and marquis titles as soon as they hit the market:

 

:turns around and complains that pc gaming is too expensive:

I used to hate Jim Sterling but this video pretty much nails it.

The Last of Us.

i seriously doubt it that game justifies the cost of a ps4

 

i wouldn't be lactating at the thought of playing it if it were out on pc

 

not like dark souls

 

which i still have not purchased and played because its a shitty port that needed community mods to fix simple issues like mouse functionality

[iamcline]

MLB 13 The Show.  That's the whole reason I bought a PS3.

I regret buying dark souls.  It's unplayable.  I couldn't make it past the first boss - not because it's hard, but because the controls are impossible.  

 

The Last of Us looks like an awesome game.  But looking at the gameplay you can probably watch a play through on youtube and experience 90% of what the game offers.  

 

What really gripes me is games that could be awesome if they were solely for PC but the developers want to sell to consoles as well so they either dumb it down or screw up the interface.

I built a decently high end rig that I'm using for (mostly) work purposes, I just bought my second 660 (wasn't sure if two would adequately fit at first, and needed the second set of GPU cores for HHM algorithms) and am quasi-interested in getting back into gaming on the PC since I should be good to go for a while.  Last time I gamed on the PC, TIE Fighter was the poo.  I won't have tons of time, but any recommendations?  I don't play sports games or driving games, I like to blow poo up and RPGs have always been fun.  I don't do multiplayer stuff, if I wanted to interact with someone else I wouldn't lock the munchkins and wifey out of the office when I needed me time.

That's a shame because Dark Souls on the PS3 is one of my top three games of all time for any system.

Desktop Hardware:

 

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400

Single EVGA 8800GT Akimbo

4 GB DDR2 OCZ Platinum RAM

Win XP Pro

 

Still plays today's games without much of a hiccup. Can't do max settings, but I can get 30-60 FPS depending on the game. Still, time to upgrade in the near future, as it's a dinosaur at this point. My question is, will I need to replace the Antec 850 TruPower Quattro PS when I do my upgrades? Will the newer components require a new connector that my old one doesn't have?

 

Was planning on:

and if need be a new PS:

That should last another 5-7 years like the last two gaming rigs I've had. I'm trying not to spend too much, but cost over time is a factor I take into consideration when building.
