I am beginning to wonder if the games media doesn't know how to do anything else but moan. That is all it seems to do these days is moan about this and that and the other.
It's rather very simple if you are not happy with answering the questions then don't fill the form in. Apparently though that is too simple, yep they have to have a real good moan about it.
Most of the information on the form is probably on about 2,000 databases already 1 more is not going to hur...
Just a heads up but it is also available for download on the PC as well and you don't need a massively well endowed PC to play it.
Besides I lost all respect for Lucasarts when that guy claimed PC's couldn't run Force Unleashed. I won't touch anything this company releases on the PC because I no longer have faith in this pathetic company or their products if that is how they think.
So basically you mean any one that has the console version then because last time I checked the PC version was superior to the console version in every way.
Well you can wipe APB off your list, that is currently PC only. It MAY come to the xbox 360 later on. However right now it is PC only and whether it comes to the 360 will depend on how well it does on the PC.
@ Odion yep slumming it with a 22" monitor waiting for prices to drop a bit on the 2560 x 1600 monitors before I look to my next upgrade. If they don't start dropping soon I may look to getting an interim 1920 x 1200 monitor.
I just hope ID have put a bit of work into the gameplay, always felt their games were excellent engines but a bit poor in the gameplay stakes. Still I will be happy to install 25gbs, last time I checked I had close to 700gbs of space free.
I can have both because I am getting the PC version.
edit : Yes the PC version will come on multiple disc's which will all be installed to the hard drive. You know just like how ALL pc games are installed to the hard drive. The dvd media is just to get the game onto the machine so it doesn't matter how many discs the PC version has.
The PC version will be clearly better to deny that because of "No. of discs" is ridiculous. PC gamers will be able to play ...
I am absolutely knocked sideways by this. I mean I am not actually bothered about the game any more I was expecting something like Jedi Academy and it turned out to be a bog standard "Hack and Slash" game.
However the sheer audacity of Lucasarts really does totally blow me away. Less than a year ago they were claiming you would need a $4,000 PC to run this game at the same level as the console, hence no PC version.
I mean seriously does Lucasarts have no ...
Ok since when was this announced for the PC ? The last I heard of this game (other than it wasn't very good) was that the PC apparently doesn't have the power to run this game !!!!!!
Seriously I don't know what the hell is going on at Lucasarts these days but they can take their force unleashed game and shove it where the lightsaber doesn't shine.
Damn was looking forward to an IE'less OS. Yes I know you can disable it but that crap will still be on my machine now grrrr. I guess MS woke up and realised it was shooting itself in the foot by not including the chance for lazy users to just opt for IE 8.
You know this site makes me laugh, if this had been Killzone 2 at 6,400 x 4,000 there would be at least 200 comments by now going "wooo power of da cell baby". However because it's the PC doing it, we get "meh what's the point".
Well it is pretty obvious why the PS3 guys are going "omgz I am getting da PS3 version cos it is on Blu-ray and it will be like sooo much better dan da 360 version which is on 2 dvd's".
The 360 guys are busy trying to convince everyone that changing disks isn't a major thing and it is probably the only exercise they will get this year.
Meanwhile the PC guys are just subtlety reminding everyone that they will be playing the best version, with the best frame ...
You can compare the differences here :-

Most home users will never need the features of Professional or Ultimate. I have pre-ordered 2 copies of Home Premium, the price was right and I am reasonable happy with the way Win7 runs.
I'll get the PC version, because it will look better graphically, have a higher resolution, better framerate and it will cost $20 less than the PS3 version :D
Yep and of course lets just forget that today's consoles barely last a year if you are lucky and when it's broke, it's broke. So that £300 every 5 years is a load of bull. Once your console is broke and out of warranty get ready to stump up yet another good few hundred quid for a new console.
Anyway why is it this site seems obsessed with reporting the PC is dying ? are console users that insecure ?
Why is pcgameshardware even looking at Red Dead Redemption ? As far as I am aware that title isn't coming to the PC.
Yeah erm you are a little bit too late it was on N4G about 4 days ago :-

There has been SLI support in GTA 4 since patch 1. Rockstar have stated that "update 1 AND using at least the 180.84 driver from Nvidia will enable SLI with GTA 4".
As for this "larger update to come" I would love to know who is spreading this rubbish. This "maintenance update" is a small update to bring existing copies into line with the new retail master disc they are producing it has nothing to do with a "larger update to come".
I have to say this really isn't my cup of tea gaming wise. However kudos go to capcom for releasing this benchmark program. It would be nice to see more developers adopting this idea. Anyway not that anyone is interested but here are my results :-
SCORE: 6273
AVERAGE: 61.84FPS
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz

Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260
Display Setting: 1680x1050 60Hz C16xQAA
rofl no I am not misinformed I know all about the xfps rubbish and yes it is rubbish. I don't feel inclined to buy an add on that is and I quote "Works great with the keyboard and PS2, but is atrocious where it really counts, mousing." :-

The fact is consoles DO NOT support mouse and keyboard,it doesn't matter what little gizmo you stick on the thing...
I wouldn't discount APB so easily, this is an mmo that even has me interested simply because it isn't damn dwarves and elves crap. I have never bothered with WOW because I just cannot stand that "lord of the rings" crap. There is also the fact there is no monthly fee either which makes me me very interested in the game.
