    BF3 is one of the best games I have ever played MP wise. I'm not really a lone wolf high kill count kind of guy. I throw a lot of ammo packs and medpacs, and go for flag caps. And I do pretty well. sbkarasik on origin.

    Deus Ex and the Fallout series ive had the most fun with.
    You haven't played the recent halo's? I agree, the first halo campaign was a little disappointing, in terms of mechanics and game play, but the story line behind halo is phenomenal, and the recent campaigns compliment it beautifully.

    Xbox live for me is worth every penny.

    Anyone into pc gaming that is current on mobile graphics cards? I am looking to build a laptop in the near future, and want to be able to play some current games.

    Fifty, on the 360 having a better processing unit, I believe the PS3 actually has 7 cores/threads. It actually has a lot more processing power than the 360. So far though, I don't think anyone has really taken advantage of it though.
    I checked wikipedia (yes I know it isn't absolutely credible, but its easy, and for the most part, I haven't any false information) This is comparing the 4th gen PS3 (I think) and the Xbox 360-S, the graphics card is actually much better on the xbox than the PS3.

    With regards to your graphics chip, I used to be a huge techy, I still know a lot of my stuff, and I still know where to look, I'll look into it.

    Do you know what your build would be? I.E. what kind of CPU will you have, motherboard, RAM (how much, what type and all the rest of those good specs) how many PCI (I think that's what they're called) ports would be available?

    If you could give me some more information I'll help you out.

    and as for the xbox people out there. I WAS an "xbox-er" (<-- ha) until!... i went through 3 consoles, 12 mics, and multiple hardware pieces. I took care of my xbox like a mother to a child. I cleaned it, made sure ALL vents were accessible to air.. and they still broke do to hardware issues... Overheating (even though i didnt play THAT often and kept it completely clean), Disc Tray stoped working on one. and the other i got (used from a friend) i refuse to play and spend money on because of past events. Got a ps3 slim in '08 still sounds and works like new. I'm sticking to that xD ha

    Edit: However, to add, I am a computer gamer more.. so the ps3 wont be touched probably until MW3 and SKYRIM!!!!!!!!! dying for it Dx haha.

    Also, cant believe how well this thread came out to be. A lot of drummers are gamers :D WOOT!!!

    A good amd build can be made for well under that. I think one of the keys to saving money and getting good parts, is to intentionally buy previous generation components. It may sound a little stupid to buy old outdated stuff, but the thing is that stuff is still considerably powerful but the price drops by a hefty amount when the product is succeeded by the next best thing. I believe that currently, it is a good idea to get a cheap radeon chipset video card as long as it has dx11 and eyefinity because the updated cards do not have more advanced technologies equipped- mostly just a different cooling solution or warranty. Just because it's from an older time doesn't mean it's not powerful enough to handle the games you throw at it, it's just a way to save money and get what you need.

    IF you go AMD, and your budget is 1000, I would say get a phenom IIx6. And get the cheapest Black Edition. You WILL get the urge to at least try overclocking, and a BE is so much easier. Get ram sticks in either pairs or 4 stick kits, so you can use dual channel. I would also get a 900 series mobo, because that gives you the option to either run SLI (nvidia cards) or Crossfire (radeons). If SLI/Crossfire is something you are interested in doing later, make sure you get a good PSU. If you are going to build your own computer, factor in 100 dollars for the Windows 7. Lot's of people forget the OS when getting a budget together.
    BTW dont SLI/Crossfire right out the bat. Buy 1 highend gfx card as opposed to 2 midrange.

    Ahaha, The reason people dislike HALO is because it is generic as hell. Console gamers seem to think it introduced so many new awesome things, but in reality these things were already present in many other PC titles.
    Everything about the halo series screams generic... Everything's basically... empty landscape with a few metal FUTURE BUILDINGS sticking out of it, you play a faceless generic soldier.

    You were playing a FPS on a console, what did you expect? (Apart from the ridiculous aim-assist and giant hit boxes, of course).

    There is little point to arguing the difference in graphics processing power of two consoles using 5/6year old tech. Xbox visuals are generally a little better, but there's never a huge difference between the two. They share the similarity of being rather quaint by todays PC standards.

    It all depends on which exclusive titles are more appealing to you, particular PS3 exclusives that stand out are the Uncharted games, inFamous, Demon Souls, God of War, Ratchet and Clank etc. Keep in mind PS3 doesn't charge a subscription fee to play online. Xbox 360 has a few decent exlusives, but it comes down to which you want more.

    As for some recent PC games that I've played and particularly liked -
    The Witcher 2, Deus Ex: HR, PAYDAY (not bad for a port), Terraria. Will get into some BF3 and Skyrim in the coming weeks.
    Played some of RAGE and I wasn't impressed, pretty bland story and gameplay wise, and the terrible texture streaming issues didn't help. (Due to the unloading/reloading of unseen textures to ensure consoles could play it, but since you can turn faster on a pc you notice it).

    Witcher 2 looks pretty good.. Both gameplay and cinematics wise. Although the latter isn't anything super impressive, it has good content to speak of. Reminds me of Drakken for ps2 a lot.

    Heh heh that's a pretty good game, heard a lot of nightmarish stories of frustration revolving around the difficulty of that series. Kinda like the original version of Devil May Cry 3.
