Is more a matter of opinion at this point.
Most Pc gamers see otherwise.

Is doing great for my games...
I've not had a single problem. Not really any noticeable improvement in gaming over Vista when it comes to performance.
But then again, Vista performed great for me too.

The Wii could push an HD signal, but at what price?
Frame rate? Even less detail in texture, geometry, and draw distances?
If they simply do a software update, only games meant for HD will be HD, and those that are designed for it will have to take a cut somewhere. I personally don't feel the Wii as it is will be able to do a worthwhile HD experience.
Maybe if they release an updated version with updated hardware that would simply force all games to run in HD, but without t...

To be a gamer lately.
Can't wait to dig into this game. I loved the combat of the first one.
You're so fragile, but sooo bad A at the same time.

They need some changes. Since they went open world with the racers it really got boring.
I think they should go back to Need for Speed High stakes or Hot Pursuit. Those where great. But they used well designed circuit based levels. No open world crap.

Someone out there does not believe a fact is a fact...
Odd huh?

Duck Tape is a brand, that makes Duct tape.
It's an acceptable use of the word, as a lot of people say Duck Tape referring to a specific duct tape.

And a lot of manufacturers use silver tape, for a lot of purposes.
Including Sony and Apple.

This article is idiotic and written by someone with no real technological knowledge.

I kind of like the bigger size, but then again I carry around a laptop...so size isn't too big of a deal to me.
But this is an odd move. I know I wouldn't upgrade to a bigger handheld...not that I even own one. But I did have the PSP 1000 one time. I thought it was too small. Cramped my hands. DS is worse...

But it can be fun with friends.
L4D2 is a rental for me. Me and a bud are renting it at the same time.

Thanks for the link to the demos! Awesome stuff.

And in the dragon pic, did anyone else notice how it worked with the stairs?
It took a flat textured surface, and gave it full blown steps. Looks closely.
Also the ground in the dragon pics look amazing.

Is to show what can be done.
As for the road, they used an extreme example of what can be done. You can bump map in full 3d now, which is great.
The road could have been bump mapped in a more subtle way, only showing mild crevices and cracks. But the idea of this is to show how far you can take it.
It's a sliding scale. You can go from flat, to bumps, all the way to spikes(like you saw on the dragon).
Look at the rocks that make the curb of the road. That's a more su...

4830 is pretty cheap.
Ton of bang for you buck there.

Licensing fees.
PC games are not charged this fee.
Hence the typical 10 dollar price difference.

About the price hike, and the server issue. If they hadn't jacked up the price I wouldn't care so much.

I have pretty much the same rig as you
940@3.4
4890
4gb ram

Good to see someone on here with good taste ; )

Anywho, good to see my rig will run this well.

And barragan, take your PS3 fanboy stuff home. Big kids play here.

You can tell MW2 is just playing it safe. Not real improvements or additions. Just riding out the gravy train.
This game looks slick though. I hope it runs in a higher res than the last, or uses AA. The first was a jag fest.

They where working on windows 8 long before windows 7 came out.
They had already talked about future 128 bit os's...so there is something out there.
It will probably be a few years though.

would be the more precise and socially acceptable term.
