  1. See, kids?! This is why the Japs got the nukes...well, that and the fact that the yanks were itching to drop a nuke somewhere. I have a Chinese coworker and never have heard her say anything positive about the Japanese.
  2. Just buy a big SSD from Samsung. A HDD maybe if you know you have to save lots of data... in that case, anything under 2TB is a waste of money nowadays, though. Cooling isn't that hard either. I think most stats are pretty clear on what you need-- big fan with little noise as possible. It's just a matter of money. Power source, yeah, maybe, but again, not much choice here... in worst case, reviews are pretty clear on this stuff. Did i mentioned I am min/maxer in this kind of things Well, that's a problem you have to deal with on your own. But generally I think it's not that much of a big deal. You just google for stuff like "power supply for mainboard x" and you'll likely get at least some people more qualified talking about it. Monitor, though, is a thing I have problems with myself. Last one I bought was the Asus VG248QE for 300€ a while back. It's a good monitor, BUT the colors are off. They are more "cinematic", with strong blue tone and crap like that. I've spend hours on trying to even this out, because for the work I do, I need my colors to be as true to "real" as possible... after a couple hours of tweaking I just gave up and settled with the closest thing I could get. It sucks and by now I wish I would have bought a different monitor.

  4. Meh, hardest part is mainboard + processor ... and maybe graphic card. Everything else is pretty much a no-brainer. Buy fast DDR4 ram and I think that's it? Depending on available money - imo - it's really not that hard anymore. I still remember the days where buying a certain mainboard or graphic card would mean that you couldn't play certain games. So glad we're past that.
  5. You ppl talking about gunplay, but the only thing I have seen as worrying is the mmo-esque bulletsponge numbers popping up from damaged enemies.
  6. Looks interesting. I'd play it.
  7. Uhm, so CD Project Red is just streaming the Cyberpunk 2077 gameplay right now: https://www.twitch.tv/cdprojektred
  8. Uh, this video is a couple months old already.
  9. Nice stomping beat.
  10. Desperados 3 looks great.
  11. Why on earth are you even in this thread? This is for people who SPECIFICALLY paid more for physical items, including the game, box, book, etc. Your comment could not be more irrelevant. Maybe stick to threads where your opinion provides some value. This is not it. lol. Triggered much, huh?
  12. Why do people insist on a physical copy of a game that they are forced to update via internet later anyway. Might as well just download it all right from the beginning. Saves money, time and space. Personally, even the box is too much for me nowadays. There's just no place to store all this stuff anymore.
  13. Maybe he will get rich from whatever he wants to do.
  14. Never liked Red Alert 2 and never tried any other ever since.
  15. Still trying to rush through Mad Max. Almost finished Jeets territory, then went on to the next... to learn that - of course - the game wants me to do the exact same stuff. So I hurried to get the cleanup crew parts and then made off to the next area as quickly as possible... to learn that - of course - the game wants me to do the exact same stuff. So I hurried to get the cleanup crew parts and then made off to the next area as quickly as possible... to learn that - of course - the game wants me to do the exact same stuff. So I ignored my urge to get the cleanup crew parts, just did whatever was necessary to get to the last area, where, I guess, the game wants me to do the exact same stuff. Oh lord, let me end this game soon.
  16. And they complain about AI shooting through walls and stuff like that.
  17. Interestingly I thought Deadpool 2 was a lot better than the first movie. Guess I can also call it an ok-ish Marvel movie, because I didn't fell asleep near the end... Usually I'm sleeping at the end of Marvel movies.
  18. Oh damn. I've just learned that Mad Max has a first person driving mode. Nice. Driving and stuff is cool, but I just loath all the grindy elements. It is so annoying, running through an outpost, trying to find the stupid scrap to get a 100% complete. Most of the time I'm missing exactly 1 and then have to start running through the whole area again. Just a pointless waste of time. I'd rather have a deeper story mode and side mission than any of this... Imagine a game like Interstate 76 being made today: Just drive around and collect items from outposts all over the place. Every once in a while you get a short cutscene to advance the pseudo story. Ugh, horrible.
  19. Checked out some preview and they say it ain't that good. Seems there really is a curse on this franchise, because nothing is able to top JA2, not even getting close.
  20. Damn, I really don't know, man. On the one hand, the original Jagged Alliance did not have a very realistic and gritty look. On the other hand, it wasn't really... this... either. Shame they haven't shown more actual gameplay.
  21. So you people made me install Mad Max again. Played a bit yesterday, finished off some outposts. First I was confused because I couldn't collect any vehicle scap anymore... till I've noticed one of the upgrades I have collects them automatically. Nice. Now I just have to figure out how to switch to the mine sniffing dog... It is probably an obvious and stupidly easy function, but I just can't figure it out and the tutorial / tooltips don't mention any of this. Oh well.
  22. Never finished the Mad Max game, because I found it to be a super boring grind. :D The driving was really fun, but all the minute-to-minute events just kept repeating over and over. The outposts felt all the same, you would approach convoys always the same way, and the story didn't hook me up enough to keep caring. Oh, and stupid as I am, I kept accidentally discharging my weapon with the little ammo in it, because I always forgot which button on the gamepad it was... :> Not sure what I would have needed to be changed in order to be hooked up to it. But maybe I'm just thinking that way because MGS5 came out at the exact same time, and I bought both games then... and MGS5 just blew me away for a weird reason.
  23. Nope, PREY has little in common with the original. While I don't really give a damn about it, I too think that the game should have been called something else. It probably would have been better for the sales as well, as too many people thought it is related to the original. PS: "Hate" is a pretty strong word in these cases.
  24. But can they become firefighters after getting out of prison then? Didn't read the article, but Guard Dog mentioned exactly that. If that's true... it's really stupid.
