  1. I know you're asking for Dean but: Intel vs. AMD isn't exactly like Pepsi vs. Coke. Its more like getting a Corolla or Camry (Or better car). Corollas are fine cars but there comes a point that you will pay too much for a Corolla, thus it make more sense to go with a Camry or a better car. AMD has great CPUs but at certain upper price ranges, you should go for an Intel since they run better and such. For the RAM, for most PC gamers, I heard that 8GB will be enough for anything you throw at it. More doesn't really make your computer that much better, in most cases. Its like more frosting on a cake. Its good but you don't have to have the extra frosting. You just could get 8 GB and call it a day. As for quality, check the timing on those RAMs. I have litter idea on what makes a good RAM but the lower the timing, the better. GPUs... you can most likely find benchmarks for those to compare. As for SDD... get one if you like but use it for the OS and other crucial programs and such then get a regular 1 TB or so HDD for all the other stuff. I personally doing that and I find it to be good. Boots much faster than my old computer and I can start using my computer once it gets to the desktop. And oh yes it can get expensive but if I predicted correctly that this should last me 4-5 years... it will be well worth the cost, imho. Its my baby. I put her together with my own hands and gave it life. The first time I powered it on, it didn't go because... I didn't flip the power switch. So I did and tried again, it went but then... stopped. Worried... I checked everything thing again, adjusting this and that. Third time was the charm and I went --- As a side note, I never used the static thing when I built my computer...
  2. Talking about promoting Homefront. A day or two ago, I saw a foodtruck that advertised Homefront going northbound 280, exiting Cesar Chavez. it was called the Pyongyang Express. I saw it way in front of me, so I sped up to catch up with it to get a closer look. It was pretty neat. AND, apparently, a quick google search comes with the following. FREE FOOD. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. Sure missed something good.
  3. I'm a bit late but Killzone 3. FASCISM* JUST WON'T DIE. *Or whatever.
  4. I just realized that I had a Gamestop giftcard here... with a balance of... enough for a brand new game. I totally forgotten about this card.

      Sir Beefychu, I have a feel that I know what you want from me. :<

      You mean other than a warm hug?

  5. They send it when you sign up for the Edge card. Fun fact. I recently renewed it around the time I got the BF3 issue the dude gave me another copy... then today, I got another issue in the mail. Wut.
  6. I must go to my brother for comments! Aya on it! And yay, California...
  7. Are they retro when the next gen consoles come out? By the time that happens, it most likely will be about 20 years since they appeared on the scene and about 15-10 when they got replaced by the next generation.
  8. I just remembered that Notch and the rest of Mojang is in San Francisco for GDC... I should look to see if there is a SF meetup sometime this week.

  9. What the hell, someone had to put a page over a stack of papers I was looking for that made it look like a completely different stack of papers I had. Scared me for a half hour. :|

      That stack of paper is a spy.

  10. Can't say that I ever got dizzy and I'm Asian I think its from playing so much FPS and games in general that I got used to it. If you toss a FPS or any 3D game to most older folks, they will get dizzy. Oddly, one of my uncles don't. Hell, he used to play Halo (SP and Co-op) a ton.
  11. I don't think he did. I heard that limiting the framerate may help. So far, nothing concrete has appeared. http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=191499&p=2908235#p2908235 Those folks on there has the same or very close to the problem you have.
  12. Atomsk, it was fun playing against you. I had no idea you were there until I got you then I went "Wait a minute... -press select- OH shit. Its on now. :<" And yeah, sometimes I am running blind for sections and maps that I don't know. Once you know them, however, they are easy enough. Hell, for maps that I do know, sometimes I find new spots that people can get in.
  13. That sounds exactly like what Rtar is going through. Everyone else on the server is fine but him. It stumped us on what is causing it. I think I'll have to look around for answers since this is a really bad bug.
  14. Does chunks load really really slow? If so it seems to be related to how bad Rtar is lagging on our server. He's lagging 30 seconds to a minute plus behind ingame and in chat. Also chunks are loading really slow.

    Apple

    I will remember the day when my highschool replaced those POS Macs with Dells. Hell, I think that was the reason I got a Dell a year later when my family was out computer shopping. So yeah, bad highschool experience with Macs doomed them to be hardly considered for purchase from me. Sure they changed but its hard to shake the memory of that era of crap.
  16. I sure hate the "Session Master is not available" BS. I'm not sure if I should even shoot or not but at the same time... sometimes when I do, not all hot register and I die instead...
  17. Oh Chewie... One thing you at least have to give Killzone is that it looks a ton better than whatever CoD they had and will churn out from MW2 onwards. Hell, compare how the MP look. Blops looks like garbage.

    Apple

    Can't say I have such good memories using Apple products then again... that was back before 2005 or so. Then there the thing of watching my friends' iPod and stuff dying one after the other. Still kind of funny how they kept on getting it. I swear, some went through five or so. And no, I personally never owned any Apple product. Reasons As we all know, they are usually more expensive than other similar products. Combine it with those bad memories and witnessing some of the shortcomings... it really makes me don't want to get an Apple product. However, I'll say that beginning last year or so, I have taken a slight turn in opinion on how good the products are. The iPad is pretty sweet.
  19. I guess not but it is sure nice to see that version.
  20. Dying with happiness...
  21. Oh my... an original Playstation. A working one at that? I'll post something soon when I clean my room and stuff.
  22. I just beat the campaign and well... did I do what I think I did?
  23. It will have a SP campaign so its all good. I think the trailer was all SP.
  24. You see, I believe The Duke had an ancestor and his name was Teddy... http://sharpwriter.deviantart.com/art/Teddy-Roosevelt-VS-Bigfoot-198525028
