I used to enjoy owning / collecting boxed copies of games until the industry switched to those silly dvd cases (often) with flimsy uninspired 2 page "manuals". Now I don't even look at games in brick and mortar stores anymore and buy my games wherever they are cheapest online.

He that's awesome, I guess this is the perfect time to finally replay SQ2 :) Thanks for sharing this.

Yes all non-Muslim women dress like whores. :roll:

I'll continue blindly parroting Christopher Hitchens thank you very much.

Curious to see what Sid will do with X-COM. In the meantime I'm going to play Xenonauts, it's not an "official sequel" but it looks very promising and faithful to the original IMO. http://www.xenonauts.com/

"Bloating up my computer" that's a bit of a hyperbole unless you are using a very old computer you won't even notice Steam running in the background. Perhaps that was a problem in the early days of the program. The games that require "internet running all the time" also require internet...

I bought it at release because I liked the premise and wanted to support the developers, I haven't really played it yet but I'm sure I will give it whirl when I'm in the mood for a laid back game like that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMyGKnJ8VZ0

I don't know, I don't think I could go back to stock models because of how crappy (and noisy) their cooling is. It's true that you can overclock any card with very little effort but you would need to buy an aftermarket cooler in order not to cook your new GPU :) I finally ditched my (stock)...

Yeah and you can very easily overclock the 560ti Twin Frozr cards even further (they come with a much improved cooling solution) so their performance nears that of the much more expensive GeForce GTX 570 (360$). IMO it's currently the best "bang for buck" card on the market.

I'm not sure about this (I own the Steam version of CS) but I can only find the final patch on their website so I assume it's the only one you need to install... http://stalker.deepsilver.com/patches.php?lang=eng

If you are willing to spend a little more I would recommend checking out the "560ti Twin Frozr II". It's a factory overclocked / quiet version of Nvidia's 560ti card. It runs all recent games on high / ultra settings at your native resolution (your CPU is a pretty huge bottleneck though)...

Yeah, cool reply. I hope you are a fan of melting in vats of goo.

I don't intend to play FNV again (or anything built around that horrendous engine) but this is really cool none the less.

My main gripe with E.Y.E was that I expected a finished product, this game from the very beginning gave me the impression of being little more than a beta version of an (overly) ambitious project. I will definitely give it another chance in the future when I'm in a more patient mood. And yeah...

It will probably be streamlined to the max so even our grandmothers will be able to play it.

This year wasn't that awful for gaming IMO. The games I enjoyed most this year: FPS: Hard Reset: amazing setting, challenging gameplay, beautiful graphics, high replay value thanks to the upgrade system and difficulty settings, devs who keep improving their game by listening to the...

To experience [spoiler:e5d349eb08] the "new" npc dialogues ? [/spoiler:e5d349eb08] Or simply because he/ she can?

Anno 2070, very addictive and amazing game especially now that I'm starting to get a little better at it. Only real (huge) downside is the crazy DRM / Ubi server. We just lost a good half hour of MP advancement thanks to the Ubi server going offline in the background.
