Forgive me if I'm wrong, but you're an aussie aren;t you wicko?...I just had a look at the 7970 pricing out of interest and it's $799 for one here...for a reference card...

So yeah we need that competition badly.

I know there wasn't 1080p much...but a 8800gtx couldn't even get 30 frames maxed with no AA at 1680x1050 in Crysis, so my statement of it not being able to run games with the recommended specs are absolutely true.

recommended specs are meaningless.

Crysis also had an 8800gtx as recommended...we all know how that ran at 1080p...

Basically as a rule, recommended means 30 frames on the highest setting with no AA.

If you want to max it out you'd want a gtx285 or a gtx460 most likely.

This thing looks horrible.

If razer want to merge the console-PC divide then they need to make better customisable controllers with 4 shoulder buttons per side and programmable macros.

The Onza was a POS and their tablet/ gaming laptop exploits have been laughable.

They should stick to the accessories...and this time put some effort in. Both my Onza's died within a few short months.

Well I bought the CE last time and torrented all the DLC. I guess ME3 is on Bioware then.

After all, I paid for a CE and got only half the game last time...the other half came in paid increments.

F.U EA

The second game was by no means bad. The first game was just so atmospheric ( cliche`....I know ) but it was a combination of everything together.

Amazing gothic art design, the best soundtrack I've ever heard in a game, the subtle unfolding of the story and the different choices you could make that didn't follow your cliche` bioware black and white good or bad branches.

Modern games are like blockbuster movies, spectacle over substance. The Witcher w...

The Witcher ( 1 ) is the only game I have felt was targeted at an older audience.

God damn that was a good game. It's a shame TW2 wasn't as good.

I don't get the deal about multiplat dissapointment. I game exclusively on pc and honestly....all the best ganes are multilplat.

Graphically: Metro 2033, just cause 2, farcry 2, resident rvil 5, mirrors edge, crysis 2, deus ex hr.

Gameplay: dead space 1/2, bioshock 1/2... There have even been good multilplat rts game; Supcom 2, RA3, C&C3 & kane's wrath.

Imo being exclusive just causes poor optimisation..eg Crysis.

The problem isn't that games can't be done on phones...the problem is that games aren't made FOR phones.

Ports of games that used a 6-8 button gameplay style do not work well on phones. If games were designed from the ground up with contextual buttons or intuitive onscreen buttons mobile gaming would be awesome.

Games like Plants vs Zombies are amazing on Android/iPhone. The developers need cash incentives to bring games out though which will neve...

I think DA2 was far better than DAO.

Anyone who had played The Witcher on pc ( 2007 ) thought DAO was a massively watered down rip off of that game.

It was very drawn out and the story was weak.

DA2 improved on combat AI, animations, graphics, story pacing. The lack of varied environments was a small negative in a massive list of improvements.

I've finished DA2 maybe 5 times so far...I finished DAO twice and I was going t...

Lol @ "personal attack" for calling HHG an illiterate moron.

Personal attack is when you attack other members...HHG has been banned, and I didn't respond to his comment.

I think people just hate hearing the real reason that illiterate moron was banned.

@LOGICWINS

The assertion that he is disliked because he is black is an assumption. The reality is that he was banned for breaking the sites article posting rules each and every time he posted.

His titles were often not related to the video. The titles also differed from the name of the article he was linking to ( his website ). His information was always without fact. His assertions were always misinformed ( 240hz TVs make games look better ) lolol.

"I play warcraft and star wars: old repulic both in 1920×1080 at 60 frames per sec"

What GPU/CPU are you using?

I guarantee both are faster than what is in this laptop.

Also WoW is not exactly Battlefield 3 visually....so saying you get 60 frames in wow ( with unnamed components ) does not somehow make this laptop capable of playing BF3 at decent settings, res and framerate, something it simply cannot do.

I wonder if people realise that a gtx580m is equivalent to a gtx260 in power...a mid range desktop GPU from mid way through 2008....

I guess not.

People never learn. 'Gaming laptops' < ( lol ) are massively underpowered for what you pay for.

The top row is the gtx260's: pixel fill rate, texture fill rate, and bandwidth...the lower row is the gtx580.

Pixel:16.128, Texture: 41.472, Bandwidth: 111.9

@Kaveti

Please just stop dick the bethesda B.S

You previously said that "all of Fallout 3's problems were fixed years ago"

Fail.

You also said "runs"...performance has nothing to do with retarded animations, dated graphics, retarded interface and quest/game breaking bugs.

I'm loving it. Sure the games aren't an uber premium standard...but with time they could be.

Also all my games are free. It's hard to complain about the quality of a free service.

In a few years when the phones do have ( as an average ) the minimal hardware required to do full 3d RPG games etc this complaint will go away. Also as the popularity of android phones increases the cost of the phone hardware per unit decreases and so we get better and ...

I agree. It's still far better value in terms of what you get per $, given that it comes with a 5" screen by default and 2 analogue sticks. But the 5hr battery is just not enough IMO.

Especially when the 5hrs is conditional on lighting levels etc. If you crank it up to full that 5hrs becomes 3.5 ( a website did a test and they got 3:29 on full lighting ).

I would be willing to have a heavier handheld for a bigger battery.

It all dep...

iphone monthly costs are inflated....but that cost is not just for the device itself. It's also for the service.

My Samsung Galaxy S II plan is $38 a month...unlimited text, $550 calls and unlimited calls between 2 different carriers and 1.5gb data.

The phone was free. I would spend twice that a month if I was on pre-paid alone...+ I'd be up for $500 for an unlocked phone.

Phone plans are not comparable to a handheld gaming device...y...

But PC's have had 2560x1600 for years, and 120hz monitors for years ( actual 120hz... not frame duplication B.S ).

They have also had graphics beyond what next gen console's can do because of the ability to use multiple high end GPUs.

If the PC versions of games are only as good as the next gen console's it would be a massive step backwards.

Games should ( and have always ) supported setting and resolutions above what can be run ...
