Unfortunately the game even stops being scary after the random-door-opens-behind-you-and-monster-comes-out-chasing-you trick is used for the 3rd time. Seriously, that shit happens like every 5 minutes, it just gets silly.

Agreed. This new news guy seems like a real prick. I've nothing against an attempt to be a bit creative now and then when it comes to writing, but telling everything who dislikes his style to STFU and GTFO is totally inappropriate.

I hope that was an April fool's joke. That card doesn't really perform better than a 8800Ultra. :(

And if you run a lot of tasks in the background on your gaming rid while gaming, quad core shines even more.

Considering how tiny the gaming performance between fast dual cores and not-quite-so-fast quad cores is at 1600*1200+, I'd buy a quad core. Probably a Q6600 or so.

The problem with every review which is done by someone who reviews for money, is that they never say "this thing sucks, don't buy it".

Just look at the benchmarks and skip the part in the conclusion which says the thing is good - whether it's truly good or not is something you need to judge. I mean, for fuck's sake, has any CPU ever gotten under 80% on FiringSquad?

The music in all the previous GT games always sucked BIGTIME. I have no hopes for improvement on that front. But I don't give a shit because I only want to hear engines roar and tires squel! :)

Yeah, over 200 different ways of ending the game through some fatal program exception. Like in Oblivion.

Quake Wars' engine isn't that old, and it's a game that's actually still played, unlike FEAR or Oblivion.

I presume they're talking about OEM version prices. One can get OEM Versions of Home Premium for under 90 Euros.

I'm glad it's over and that it's Blu-Ray. HD-DVD just wasn't a significant enough upgrade over DVD, imho.

So not going to happen. They're busy with the next WoW expansion and Starcraft 2. And even if they're secretly working on some Diablo 3 design / prototype, they wouldn't announce such a huge thing at a tournament. They make their big announcements at BlizzCon.

Id Software, Epic Megagames, Big Huge Games... quite a bunch of developers have done this. It's a nice post-release game enhancement for the long-standing fans.

And why did you buy Warcraft 3 and never played it? That's one of the best games EVER made!

Indeed. I hate EA, but it sounds like they did defend computer games as a whole quite well against those lame attacks made by Fox.

Maybe they're talking about a product designed for servers and enterprise systems; a newer Vista, but not one that will replace the desktop versions.

Agreed. CoH4 is just a good FPS game, but no GotY material. It's just shit for the masses, for the console n00bs who don't know of the better stuff.

At least they didn't vote for Halo 3 though, that would've been even more lame.

Seriously, it's just a shitty version of Deus Ex in a different, whacked-out environment. Not really innovative at all.

Yeah, blame American fast food like McDonald's for Britain's obesity problem. Eating bacon, sausages, beans, lard and eggs for breakfast, steak pies for lunch, fish & chips for supper, and Cadbury's chocolate bars inbetween - the national dishes - definitely has nothing to do with it.

Agreed. This thing has no real benefit over the normal 8800GTs, considering the pros and cons. Given it's more expensive, I think there's no point in buying it, enthusiast who doesn't care about money or not.

Brandon, can you review the passively-cooled Sparkle 8800GT maybe? Anandtech's got a good review on it, but they didn't really seem to do some serious stress-testing. I'd really like to know how that card does in a normal case without high-end cooling, running state-of-the-art games for half a day straight...

I'm so gonna sell my Xbox 360 with Forza 2 when the final version of GT5 comes out! :)

Forza 2 is damn good. Maybe GT5 won't even really be better than it, but its graphics are a bit "meh", and GT5 will have more cars.

Best shooter released this year? Uhm, that's VERY subjective, given Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, Team Fortress 2, Half-Life 2: Episode 2, Halo 3 (not my cup of tea, but it's popular among the n00bs), Call of Duty 4 and what not, I think Unreal Tournament 3 was overshadowed.
