damn my computer cant even handle half-life 1 ill just wait for it to be ported to 360

I will be surprised if pacman works on mine

I just use internet mainly, and for that I use laptop.

aww mannn, I want some hardcore PC gamers so I can talk OCing an UV water pipes XD

I want to be a Pc Gamer...

Talk to me about anything else tho..

Talk to me about anything pretty much, I just like news and such and reading up on things lol

I really want to play this game.

You think you have problems, mine can't even rip a CD

whatever floats your boat I guess XD

Haha, way to expose my typo...

I was thinking of a few things at once, its a shame if that was the product of a busy mind.

I'm not really into these type of games, but the screenshots look good, i might even buy it.. as long as it doesnt mess my pc up too much..

I suggest checking if your computer is good enough, Pc Games have certain issues, RAM, Memory, graphics card, DX, audio etc.

That game is new and looks pretty fine, you will need a good Pc to use it.

Check if your Pc is good enough.

Unless you crave the benefits of DX10 in this game, I recommend staying with Xp. Ever since I got my X1950PRO and started to play PC games again, I immediately reverted to Xp. This game will run under Xp, DX9. I suggest this because right now, almost all DX9/OpenGL games and or applications run slower under Vista. Why? Because it was essentially a step backwards, but for the greater good of overall stability, as they moved most of the graphics driver interface (previously GDI/GDI+) out of the kernel, which became WDDM (runs the drivers in user mode, prevents MOST BSODs). And openGL, well, that's a nightmare in Vista.

Wait for DX10 to really be relevant in many games (after SP1 is out) to go to Vista. No point in rushing to an OS that's really so incompatible, and graphically challenged. Once they design software for WDDM, then the difference will be offset.

You'll need to have spent a fair amount on your PC in the past years to play this one the way it should be played :/

Very True


And Yeah, I will probably wait to upgrade my pc untill SP2 maybe, I would rather not upgrade my pc and get XP OP and then pay out for Vista, I'd just get a Pc with Sp2 already running.

to be honest, go straight to vista, they have Vista SP1 in the works now and you cant get DX10 on XP so why wait

Meh, whenever my mother need's a new computer I suppose...

I'l will just try to make her pick a good one, Good graphics card and such.

hehe, that's the way to do it until you get a job

my games PC has an overheating problem atm, I've got a better watercooling system I'll be buying soon

What's the point? Why become essentially a glorified beta tester? Microsoft's beta tests can only get so far, and the fact that SP1 is coming out so soon convinces me that RTM was nothing more than a large scale beta. DX10 has a long way to go until it's fully utilized. IMHO, it's a step back in MANY regards. Such as the fact that accelerated sound has been removed, or that Directinput was scrapped for Xinput, the Xbox input interface, simply because, even though it's inferior, it allows the easy porting of games between Xbox 360 and Vista (hence Vista only games), and also allows easier development for joysticks.

Don't get me wrong, Vista is a great operating system, it just needs some fundamental bugs to be ironed out first, as well as 3rd party developers need to get their act together.

Both custom built? or just normal 'default' Pc's?

XAudio2 is in DX10.1 which is released soon. But yes, vista has got issues, but hopefully they'll be dealt with before crysis is out ^^

also, don't get me wrong, but I think XInput is superior to DI because it's been basically untouched since DX7. XInput runs a lot faster, I believe.

The games PC is fully custom, the web machine started off as an HP OEM PC, all that's left of the original machine is the DVD-Rewriter and the case XD

Haha true, I must have a little talk with rent#1 soon

But for now (And years to come) I will have to stick to Image/Graphic features, work and browsing on my laptop.

Shame, Really wanted to play some Crysis.

Thats right play, not please
