why do people use personal attacks because he not developing for a failing platform.
Gabe Newell is a legend in the gaming industry and every series bar one has been 10 out of 10 for me.
Steam is amazing and valve was one of the first if not the first.
the only reason they release games on consoles is for extra cash,
why would you buy any valve game on 360 or ps3, that is like saying i like playing a sh!tty version for twice the price and getting n...
the reason why developers stay with PC even when their games sell less than pirate, is because its the best platform
so true, only true quality is on PC
consoles gamers claim that the graphics are not that far off but when there is motion blur and the character is standing still its just ridiculous. the textures on console look like they have been down scaled, draw distance is like 100meters were as on PC its like k meters e.g. GTA IV in a helicopter just cant see the airport to well on consoles but on PC is great. also cars in the distance is not just 2 red dots but fill cars.

pre rendered showroom graphics always look better than real time,
these are pre rendered and that is way they look life like.
in game on ps3 will be equal or just worse, psp gt will be on par with ps2 or a bit better.
L3 is better than L2
the core i9 that are coming this winter will have 16 to 24MB L3 compared to the i7s that only have 8MB L3.
yeah AMD has fallen short, for to long.
Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16GHz, 6MB L2 £148.61
AMD Phenom II X4 940 3.0GHz, 2MB L2, 6MB L3 £131.66
Bench of both these CPUs side by side

as you can see a Intel dual core is better than an AMD quad.
Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 2.33GHz, 4MB L2 £104.99
AMD P...
still cost about £30 on PC also Free DLC.
anybody played rfactor, best driving sim ever, formula 1 teams such as BMW, Williams, Ferrari and Mclaren use it for simulation.
the graphics don't look great but the modding community is really making good work of the game even thought the engine is 5 years old.
here is my lap time in the Ferrari F2008 on the Hungary GP track

forget me i5 will almost be same as i7 but dual channel
core i5s are just re branded core 2 quads and core i3s are re branded core 2 duos,
they are releasing software that spreads the tasks like on a GPU stream processors so that rather than a game on using 1 or 2 cores it will use small amounts of them all,
its ether they use different materials to achieve higher clocks or multi cores like these.
I can bring it to its knees
all very high, 8x aa @ 1920 by 1080p
My RIG

sorry man but these companies should be closed down permanently
I have seen alienware and dell PC at £2000+
If I had £2000 is could build the same thing twice over, small premium, your basically paying them double to build it and package it.
Plus since I've switched to PC i have saved myself £3000+ in games.
e.g. I'm paying £20 for the best version not £50 for the worst version, plus all the perks with PC like mods, user created c...
The image is from warhead or frozen paradise, Crysis
guess we may see the improve PC version of Cryengine 2 I mean Cryengine 3
Counter strike players are probably the best FPS gamers ever,
On TF2 I would say I'm a mean sniper, quick will head shots but on CS:S i just get rapped by these people.
Any other game its like 50 - 50 (equal kill to death) with these guys but on CS or CS:S its like 99 - 1, basically they will own you, cause that is what they do.
This could be a i9 or xeon sometimes CPU-Z is not always right. thats why it say i7 which i believe is not the name for this CPU.
if it is a xeon then the reason for 12 core is because these mobos are dual socket dual CPU = 2 X 6 cores.
now this is a lot more impressive 8 cores 16 threads 24MB L3 cache

yeah Q6600 overclocked to 3.6GHz lol
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro, best cooler for its price.
