The P5K is a good mobo. That link doesn't work but if I remember correctly that is the one you picked, right?

It was, this is a PQ5L. Caught my eye because it was a little cheaper and came with Alone in the Dark, lol.

I read on the reviews for the CPU I picked out that the heatsink was hard to put on...can I just use my cooler master that I already have? It's got Arctic Silver paste on it already.
 
You shouldn't be going by Newegg reviews so I hope you are getting them from somewhere reliable like [h]ardorcp, overclocker, or extremetech. I don't know anything about that motherboard, I can't even find it on Newegg
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']I'magonna start a list of all the stuff Chac hates.

See you in a hundred pages.[/QUOTE]

Well you can add Bioshock and Mass Effect to the list of things I like. That list is probably about as long. I just operate in extremes.

But seriously, Pineapple Express isn't funny.

I'll get the one you suggested then!:lol:

The video card comes with Crysis. :D

Now I've got to buy a bigger monitor to max out the resolution lol.

I haven't seen it.

But I love you, Chac. Your reactions to the press conferences in the GGT chat were funnier then any Apatow film. And I love Superbad so hard.
 
You can also add Harold and Kumar 2 to the list of things I like. The first time I watched it, it was on like a 13" roadshow TV and it sucked. But I liked it when I watched it on my setup. You can add 13" Roadshow TVs with built-in DVD players to my hate list. And Ron Howard, because he's bald and ugly. Jeff Goldblum is on the list of things I like tho.

Crysis kills computers at high resolutions :D. If you can run it on High and maintain 30 FPS at 1900x1200 that is amazing.
 
Harold and Kumar is at least 50 kinds of awesome. I love that movie with a passion.

"fuck YOU DONUTS ARE AWESOME"

"They are delicious"
Jest:
Haha, my 19 inch maxes at 1440x900.

That's really enough for me.

"That is one big pile of shit"

Oddly enough, I haven't finished Crysis yet, but it is sooo good. If Crysis Warhead is more action-y, then that can only be a good thing. A lot of times, I like downtime in FPSes, since in FEAR or Riddick, for example, that non-action time is all about atmosphere or something to give the game a bit more variety than just "attack shit." But Crysis didn't really do anything to fill that time. So if Warhead is a tighter experience, that'll be legit.

It's weird... I mostly play PC games while I'm in school... during the summer, not so much. so I guess I'll finish that game and play some of those RTSes I have piling up fairly soon.

Though I think the first game I'll play through when school starts is Infinite Undiscovery. Please don't mess it up, square.
 
I saw The Dark Knight again. It is still awesome. I caved and bought Braid. As much as I hate to support price increases on XBLA, the game is pretty good.
 
[quote name='Jest']So what is the gimmick this time? Everyone does destructible environments now.[/quote]

backpacks and sledgehammers :lol:
 
Mass Effect's conclusion was so, so awesome. The bits leading up to that could have used a little more variety, but it was a great game nonetheless.

On the other hand, Bioshock starts out AWESOME and slowly turns into a pile of shit during the unnessecary "boss" at the end and the awful 10 second pre-rendered Binary endings.

Both great games with different, but equally major problems.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']I still don't understand why people praise Bioshock more than Mass Effect... to each his own.[/QUOTE]
Notice I said Bioshock was my second favorite game of last year. That's because Mass Effect is the first.
[quote name='Chacrana']Bioshock and Mass Effect were both good. I dunno why people act like Bioshock is shit after you hit some of the more fetch-questy parts. I mean, there's not that many of them, and it's not like there's a ton of backtracking or anything...[/QUOTE]
Seriously. Just people being stupid as usual.

If they weren't charging $40 for that fucking alarm clock I'd probably get it. It looks like they're producing them en masse now, originally there were only going to be like 2,000 made. The thing is just so cute. Also:

Note that the duck's wings are on its hips which means you better get up when the alarm sounds off.
 
I watched a little bit of the Olympic opening ceremony last night. I really think it would be much more interesting if video games were in the Olympics somewhere.

Gonna play some more Xenosaga today. Maybe a little Warhawk too.

What is that big Phoenix Wright box you have in the top right of the pic?

Heavenly Sword is pretty awesome. First hour, at least.
 
Quick! Someone agree with my opinion so I can feel more confident that my feelings are objectively correct!!

MarkMan: Where'd you get those Galaxy figures? I need some of those...

I don't need people to agree with me to know I'm correct!
 
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo! My life has been a lie.

For anyone who isn't hating on Too Human (which might not be anyone in this thread) .. you can get a $10 gift card with purchase at CC next week. Not too shabby.
 
[quote name='Maklershed']I know it's off topic but where is the best place to get the complete series of RahXephon?[/QUOTE]
Just watch Evangelion, which RahXephon is a poor man's version of.
 
I have the Evangelion set but I haven't gotten around to watching it all yet. I guess I should probably do that before I buy RahXephon.
 
I wholeheartedly agree with [insert your name here] opinion on [insert name of game here]. Now just copy and paste into your post!

I'm thinking about getting the MGS PS3 bundle tonight. We will see if I can convince the wife.

Atleast it has a better ending then both the NGE anime and movie...

Getting around to watching the greatest show ever made? Yeah, that should be a priority...
 
Aren't Bioshock and Mass Effect (on PC) both heavily DRM laden, in ways that essentially amount to malware? I could be wrong, I don't put much energy into keeping up with the whole "video games" thing, but that impression is why I've always stayed away from them.
 
You can play games on PCs now? Neat!

I too don't follow that stuff, I think one of them or both of them dropped that after the public outcry. Is that right?

I totally wouldn't hate on Too Human if it didn't play like a shitty game from 2000. That's a good deal and all, but Dennis Dyack is too much of a cunt, and I won't support that.
