1TB Hard Drive Roundup

TheTechlounge writes: "Barriers are meant to be broken. This is true for any industry (I think they call it competition), but in the computer industry it is very apparent as each company tries to claw its way to the top. These heated battles are settled in the marketplace arena, decided by consumers. Sometimes the losers come back stronger; other times they are acquired by other companies or just fade into non-existence. Hard drive manufacturers are among this fighting lot. As capacities have increased and prices fallen, each company wants those bragging rights of having the "biggest," or at least the fastest. The capacity war has been raging for a while.

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
