antivirus can mess with things occasionally. Which program was it? I totally wish I still had a button that made me have 66mhz instead of 33! go 486's!

Normally a weak power supply would cause crashing or immediate power down. Here's a nifty calculator for what kind of power you need for your pc. http://support.asus.com/PowerSupplyCalculator/PSCalculator.aspx?SLanguage=en-us For low fps I would start with the video card and go from there.

For the most part hardware is ahead of the demands of gaming, even PCs that are considered midrange can run most games with all the bells and whistles.

fuck and yes!

The ending to Crysis could have been better, and overall would have made the whole game better if your commanding officer just said "shit just got real" and it faded to black. I think my problem with Crysis is it rides the line of completely ridiculous, but they refuse to admit it and keep playing it serious. I wish they'd just go completely over the top. It tries to be serious when it should be Bad Boys 2. As for the main topic here...I think your issues are mainly with game design and logic, rather than PC related. There's plenty of console games out there with their head stuck up their ass.

Prey is kinda meh. The most exciting thing is that they licensed a couple real songs for a jukebox at the beginning....that's pretty bad if that's the most interesting thing. They made a big deal about the portals in the game, but then you know Portal came out shortly after and kinda ate that feature whole. But for 2 dollars who the hell cares. On the other hand I bought Space Asshole when it was 9 bucks and it really lives up to the song. Even the npcs are space assholes. A rebel ran me over with a truck, jumped out, cocked her rifle, and said "I've got your back mason." I'd prefer she didn't.

The dlc tab is in l4d2 because of the preorder bat. The dlc funcionality has existed in steam for the past year or so. Most likely the pricing blurb in the press release refers to the xbox version.

Oh if only there was a PC version, so I could play it.

the l4d launch last year(which was handled the same way) went pretty smoothly, but there's always room for error.

Tried the demo, was kind of surprised that I was enjoying myself. I never really got into diablo at all, found myself bored with it pretty fast. But for whatever reason this entertained me. Guess I just dig playing a half naked chick that blows shit up with a pistol. Half naked chick will blow you away with her guns! - Ign.com

Everything's like that, the problem is just turned all the way up to 11 since it's such a small and focused game.

By far my favorite part is on bashandslash they mention that anyone who tried to ask about dedicated servers in some official IW chat was just asked to leave. Delicious.

It seems far more suited for more adult situations.

I played on expert a bunch. A charger incapped 2 of us and killed another on one charge. I went flying into a wall and got incapped, the other guy got smashed into the ground, and nick was killed instantly by the charge because he was b+w.

Definitely need to include the subject zero bit at the end of it too, that was the best accident ever.

The Parish finale is a gauntlet on that bridge, trying to get to an escape helicopter. I do believe they blow it up behind you too. Also the video rocked my world.

or play samples of nick's borderlands sigh.

Man, I can't believe that one guy is leaving! I really hope you guys do continue in some way. I generally don't listen to podcasts all that much but this one was/is really great. Too bad it's possibly ending a month after I started listening. Congratulations on the job Nick. As for best unboxing, for me it was Wing Commander 3(special edition?) that came in the metal film reel case with a t-shirt, poster, and possibly other things I can't remember.

I certainly dropped my monocle in shock when I read about this! To be honest though I wasn't the biggest cod4 fan, so I wasn't planning on playing for a good while anyway. My personal feelings on cod aside, it seems pretty suicidal to release a major fps without dedicated server support.

Don't forget that one guy's friend: That other guy. He's a dick.

Over the top is more interesting to me. Though someone did object to the gamestop badmouthing and there was mention of the pc version being buggier somehow. They just didn't type as badly as that, except for maybe one guy.

Here I'll simulate. Wtf is dis shit! dis neck breakin guy dont know nuthin! borderlands is da best game eva! of course he thought it suk he play on pc! every1 know its best on xbox i mean how u not play fps w/ controller?! mouse is for facebook only not for shootin! gamestop 4 lyfe! Oh god someone call a doctor, I think I killed my brain typing that.

Oh holy crap. The ripper is...DYNOMIIIITE.

I can't believe nick has the gall to have his own opinion about the game, the jerk. My favorite bit though is that somehow the fact that he played it on the PC exonerates him almost. "Oh well he played it on the PC, that's understandable then. Had he played it on consoles he would have liked it." At least that's the vibe I got.
