Just to clear it up for people that don't understand this
HD xxxx malarkey works

Here is a couple of examples

HD 4870
The '4' signifies the series in with the card belongs
The '8' signifies weather its low end, midrange or high end, (in this case high end)
The '70' signifies where it sits in its range (this case third behind 90 and 70 x2)

HD 6670
The '6' signifies th... #39

Look at this fail statement
" people who suck at COD love BF because they are less skilled"

I used to like COD, I found it extremely easy and unrewarding and that is why I got bored of it extremely fast, I only got BO because the SP looked interesting.

BC2 almost done 100hrs and over 120hrs on BF3
Now:
It takes skill to get a headshot from over 1.2KM away
It takes skill to get 8196 kills with 2579 headshots
It... #29

Well it does and it does not

When Steam usually goes down, its only the friends list.
The store, news and community tabs usually works same with the forums.

One thing is for sure games was not effect unless they required Steamworks :) #1.1

There is a mega mod for Skyrim
http://skyrim.nexusmods.com...

-PvE, PvP and RP servers
-Ingame Chat
-Joining Parties and Guilds
-Multiplayer Dungeons
-PvP Arenas
-Open World PvP (PvP Servers only)
-Trading
-Player Housing #4

For me on the PC, I had random crashes when exceeding 2GB RAM now I can play until I need sleep. #24

Always played PC and consoles at a Desk

Don't use or want to use Move, Wiimotes and Kinect :) #11

Battlefield has always been about MP
I've only ever done the first mission on BC1, BC2 and 3 levels on BF3

Loving Battlefield 3, shame I taken a break off it in December.
Also I only ever play hardcore mode, only done about 4 matches in non hardcore between BC2 and BF3.

Here is my Battlelog :)

PS3 its only needs PC :) #22

I have said exactly what Kazuo Hirai has said for years but I've only be blasted by the Sony FANBOYs

If you look at their business they have been pricing to high for products other offer for cheaper.

Sony Walkman - Has failed since 'i devices' come out.
Sony Ericsson - Have been loosing money for years.
Sony Bravia - Samsung, LG and Panasonic have equally good product but cheaper.
Sony Vaio - Expensive and no redeeming fact... #49

As proven by image 9 this can be done on PC right now, just developers are not taking advantage of the technology.

Can't see the next gen consoles being all that powerful if they come out this year, why?

Well HD 7970 ($550) is out and GTX 780 ($600) within 3 months meaning PS4 & NXB will have to use older hardware which is inferior giving the PC almost 2 year advantage.

If they come out sometime in 2013-14 they would be out before HD... #23

The worst part is, this DRM only hurts the legitimate users. you don't get any of this BS with the pirate version.
Ubisoft is the worst at this.

The best DRM is the ones in Serious Sam 3 and ArmA II, does not effect the legitimate users but p!sses off the pirates :) #2

GPU is more important than CPU especially on PC! Why?

Well the GPUs have extremely high core counts, the core are a lot more programmable (why we see them is the worlds fastest supercomputers) but they can push ridiculously high performance

CPUs:
IBM Cell B.E = 102.4 GFLOPS (RISC)
IBM Xenon = 115.2 GFLOPS (RISC)
Intel Core i7 3960x = 119.4 GFLOPS (CISC)

GPUs:
Nvidia GeForce GTX 580 = 1581.1 GFL... #29

If the leaks are correct GK104 will either have 576 cores or 768 cores both of which topple Nvidia's GeForce GTX 580

This seems to be right if you look at the history of cards
usually the next Gen cards have double

If so:
GTX 580 - GF110 = 512 cores/ GTX 780 - GK100 = 1024 cores
GTX 560 Ti - GF114 = 384 cores/ GTX 760 Ti - GK104 = 768 cores

I'm saying
GTX 780 = 1024 cores, GTX 770 = 960 cores

Valenwood and Elsweyr

Seems like it would be more obvious suggestion, why? well non of the Elder Scolls games have ever followed on from each other

But then again there is more to the Elder Scolls Universe than just Tamriel, could be Elsewhere :) #28

LOL it double-posted :/

Just want to add

Arguments:

* You need to update your PC every 6 months = Rubbish majority of Steam users still have DX9 systems only meaning Hardware prior to 2007 i.e GeForce 7000 and Radeon X1000

* I prefer to play on a BIG 42" TV = With PC you can play on any display you like whether its 15" Monitor or at 70" HDTV

* I prefer to play with game pads = With PC you can... #7

I know of 7 people that was console gamers only before September 2011 that have embraced PC gaming.

Some of these people getting upto 80hrs of Steam game-play every 2 weeks, one particular person used to play his PS3 everyday day now he mostly watches TV on it with PlayTV like myself. He PS3 playtime has come down to less than 5 hours every 2 weeks.

That more than 96% playtime on PC, never mind web-browsing, listening to music, watching films/videos.
... #5

They have all done it before including consoles

Just look at Kinect or Wii

Least Intel don't need to worry about their CPUs they are outselling everything else, Plus Ivybridge is going to be out before AMD Piledriver. #16

Games I want on that list:
Dishonored
Bioshock Infinite
Grand Theft Auto V

Games that could interest me:
Syndicate

Will be getting these games on PC :) Cheaper and definitely superior :) #18

They probably make more money of the the Free downloads, why becuase of in game advertisment.

$0.99 for one install or in game adds for every level, the free version probably pays the developer more after 4 level and the paid version.

To be honest I don't care for portable consoles, they are terrible, my PSP purchase was easily the worst in my life.

Adding more buttons and making games that are not intended to be played on 5" screens... #10.1.1

Well I think we are less than 2 years from the refresh of consoles.

I reckon Xbox Loop (Codename) will be out by 2013 Q2 latest
I think PlayStation 4 will follow right after 2013 Q4/2014 Q1

The Next Gen needs to come, games are looking terrible and everyone is just doing Call of Dirty re-skins.
Plus it will make lazy developer/publishers push harder to make better games such as Activision. #29
