I had a HD 5850 but exchanged it for GTX 460

The HD 5850 was great don't get me wrong but I have always preferred Nvidia Control Panel and software support

The Greatest clock speed I could get would of the HD 5850 was disappointing also when overclocked the card would not step to its 2D clock speeds

Stock HD 5850 725MHz/ 1000MHz
OCed HD 5850 870MHz/ 1250MHz
Step HD 5850 870MHz/ 1250MHz

To achieve this cloc...

HD 6870 leaked Benchmarks have been released

It is only reported to be 20% faster than GTX 480 and just better than HD 5970
It makes sense as its only on 1 Chip where as the HD 5970 is 2 Chips

HD 6870 - 1 Chip 40nm total of 1920 Cores
HD 5970 - 2 Chip 40nm total of 3200 Cores

The Codename for the HD 6800 is Southern Islands which looks like its going to be used to bridge 2 Generation of GPU technology
The architecture...

2K are really bad for this

Bioshock 2 came with a lot of DLC on disc, you really only purchased a key to unlock them

Mafia II is also bad for this guys
Everyone who has played it knows there is no Free Roam mode
Well modders have already got a Free Roam mode for the PC version but because of this content such as the military Jeeps have been made accessible and same with the Made Man DLC

2K charging for DLC that is already ther...

I will be getting the game

But considering these guy got the official Formula 1 license I have to say I think they are failing to deliver on the Car models and after playing Grid, DiRT and DiRT 2 I have to question the simulation of the game

Here is what one modding company did for rFactor

I got my first PC for gaming purposes in November 2007 and only found out about Steam believe it or not in early 2008

Since then I have collected over 180 games on Steam and love the fact Valve still support all of their games ever though some are coming close or are a decade old

For me Valve is the best developer in the world simply because they always put the customers first and always take the opinions of its community and not some corporate CEO

I do think RedSky has a leg to stand on

His point about the car is a very good one, here is another

If I purchase a Car and choose to Modify it that is legal
If I purchase a 360 and choose to Modify it that is illegal
If I purchase a PS3 and choose to Modify it that is illegal

Like his point is

Test a Car
Test a Game

Some of my friends pirate just to see if they like it, others because...

I think that is what 2K was going to do from the start.

!!!POSSIBLE SPOILER!!!

The only thing I'm not liking about Mafia 2 is the fact you can't purchase apartments, you get them after completing chapter such as the cutscene after completing chapter 8 or 9

My crushing run of Uncharted 2 had taken me a little over 3 hours

Yeah because stabbing a guy once with a knife does more damage than a 50. cal rifle

Can see some idiots going for the stab and forgetting that armour is bulletproof and the knife will not left a bruise

So when did you fall out of the stupid tree

PC will always be better than any console

My GTX 460 will play Crysis and Crysis Warhead at very high, 1920 by 1080 no AA with no lag

BTW GTX 460 will cost around $200 and a full system with GTX 460 would be around $500 - $600

186 games I have on Steam and I have only spend on average £8.29 per game
186 games on PS3 is would cost you around £39.99 on average, over ...

This is why Modders are better than Codemasters

Trust me the aliasing was not that bad in game lol

I recorded this with Fraps and it was like 3.9GB then I compressed it to 17MB LOL using VLC so I'm guessing the Jaggies came from that

Remember these Guys do it for Free

You can always donate at

I would say the PC version on medium will look like the PS3 version
I would say the PC version on medium to low will look like the 360 version

Then us PC guys get High, Very High, DX10, DX11, 16x AF, 32x AA, AO, DOF, Eyefinity, 3D surround, Mega Draw Distances, Mods and much much more

I think Crytek and/or EA are scared of Showing PC version of Crysis 2 at maximum setting because it may put off PS3 and 360 users when they see the console version

WOW

Modders can make the cars look like real life with all the updates for every race and have proper steering wheels for the correct teams, all for Free on rFactor

Codemasters have tons of money to make this game perfect but the graphics are not great, the simulation physics I'm guess will be worst than rFactor and then they have a Red Bull RB6 steering wheel on the Ferrari F10 but with a sticker in the centre

FAIL

The thing with Valve is they always support there games years and years after release
They still support Counter Strike almost 10 years since release

I would rather have the game supported for years on end than get a sequel within a year

Also how can they be milking it all Valve's content after purchase is 100% FREE

Valve have already said that

Move and PS3 3D will not happen with Portal 2 for now but you never know

Steam play

You purchase a game on PC and you get the Mac version Free
You purchase a game on Mac and you get the PC version Free

I would expect the game for PS3
