well, if this finds its way to steam, I'll pick it up.

I hate hipster gamers who think they're hardcore.

I'm glad to see the update, it was obvious from your initial post that something was way wrong with that computer. Also, I'm glad to see that the onboard graphics can handle SWTOR on low settings, I need a new laptop to take overseas for a few months, and thats the only game I care to play on PC while I'm away.

glancing at a comment and roaring in to set straight the ignorant masses does not endear you either. But ok, I do apologize for being an ass.

You suck at reading. I'm defending high end boutique PC makers, like Alienware, Falcon Northwest etc. You know, the ones who do make overpriced desktops. I constantly defend the idea that they have a place in the market.

You know, I wanted to defend this thing, unlike many, I believe boutique gaming PC makers have a place in the market. But God damn, at least the over priced high end desktops are actually fit for PC gaming.

This is an outrage! We must do something. I will do anything and everything in my power,

That's true, they will need to adapt or die in the digital age. It has nothing to do with their current stock chart however, Kate is still an idiot with likely little to no education in Economics or ecology.

Kate is an idiot. The tree's used to make the yellow pages are a renewable resource, and if they were really losing tons of $$ on them, they would stop printing them.

I typically do not throw stones at people who are able to accomplish in real life what I've only had to do for practice, but whatever. I'm sure it makes you feel better about yourself to make sure we all know this isn't all that special.

But did the scenario include looking for a landing zone, and then actually landing on a road of unknown quality?

So, just in case there was any confusion, you are saying that the pilot, AKA the guy flying the plane, sits on the right.

yes, every bit as good. Games that say they are made with NVIDIA in mind are just paid product placement for the most part. NVIDIA has some really awesome high end cards, but AMD/ATI has a pretty solid lock on the budget market.

for a card at the performance level of a 520, I don't think it will make much difference. The cheapest video card I would reccomend for any games that came out in the last 5 years or so would be an AMD Radeon HD 5670 or 6670. 6670 is 10% or so faster than 5670, and can often be found for the same price.

I made the move from my 360 to a budget gaming PC just a few weeks ago, and couldn't be happier. I no longer have a single point of failure for all my gaming files, saves and accounts etc.

I live in Kansas too, and I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. I also have guns.

I agree that all these problems can be solved by simple parental interaction. Also, even if you are against the LBGT agenda, a game like SWTOR is not pushing any positions of any kind, its simply an option, and if you aren't trying to make your character gay, you wouldn't even know its there.

You know, I'm fairly conservative on a lot of these social issues, but I've never thought to complain about same sex relationships being an option in the games I play. Its not an option for me, because the game doesn't force me to be gay, so its an option I can ignore. If someone wants to RP a gay character, more…
