What about the games you bought on a sale and not played more than a handful of times because you already had a game you really wanted to play?

I STILL have only played through the first hour of Dead Space.

Based on the recent comments I've heard from Cevat Yerli, unless Crysis 2 sells a bazillion PC copies, PC sales will be "disappointing" and piracy will be blamed.

I just didn't want to give Crytek one more reason to use piracy as an excuse for jumping off the PC bandwagon. I don't have a problem with multiplatform games, as long as each version takes into account the strengths of the various platforms. I'm keeping my fingers crossed on this one...

But - will it play Crysis?

I'm still gaming with an 8800GT. I've gotten too old to keep up with regular hardware updates, and frankly, the 8800GT has served me incredibly well.

If I do upgrade, I'm playing Crysis all over again - the medium detail settings I needed for smooth gameplay look poor compared to the high detail settings.

I agree. As long as you mention that this is based on reference hardware, I don't think there is an issue calling it a review. Most of the intial cards that are coming out are very close to the reference designs anyway. I'm used to how FS classifies previews vs. reviews, but if you want to bring new readers to the site, I think it would be a good switch to call these articles reviews.

» Dammit.
Guess it's finally time to break down and get Dead Space. Anyone played it? Got any reservations? Last chance to stop me...

Congrats nGAGE, the best video won. I have to say I'm a little jealous, but it's tough to be disappointed when there were a number of really excellent videos posted. I hope you get to experience some 3D Surround!

I found the info by using that "Google" thing that all of the kids are talking about. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

I almost feel like it's the opposite of a Nvidia ad. The GTX 460 768MB card that costs the same beats the 5830 in almost every benchmark and it still scores an 88 out of 100? If someone is so dedicated to purchasing ATI video cards that they would ignore logical price/performance comparisons, they probably wouldn't be reading this article.

I live in the US... how do I get in on this Kingston contest? It's too bad it's not open to everyone, as some of the best videos in this competition were made by people outside the US.

Agreed - the rig they're giving away is awesome. Thanks to Firingsquad, Nvidia, and Maingear for this opportunity! This was a great contest, and I enjoyed seeing the other entries. There are a lot of talented people who entered. Good luck everyone!

» Rules question
My entry is taking longer to edit than expected. The rules say "All entries must be submitted by midnight August 8th 2010." Do you mean midnight at the end of Saturday (Sunday is the 8th) or the midnight that comes at the end of Sunday?

I bet it's called "Ring Planet" and you have to save the universe playing as the intrepid "Master Chef"...

Speaking of Zombieland, your rule #4 doesn't apply to Left 4 Dead. Maybe that's the E3 surprise - the announcement of L4D 3-10 every Christmas from now until 2016!

No kidding - remember when episodic gaming was supposed to bring us new game content faster? It was 6 years from HL1 to HL2, and that was with a substantial portion of the code being stolen. Now it's another 6 years, and no Episode 3 yet?

Congrats to both Sandman and Vandy! I was starting to worry that something had happened to the only PC Gaming website I trust.

Because I remember staying up through the night to download and play Wolfenstein 3D the first night it was available for download.
