Maybe you bought that when it was $0.50 or whatever.

Modern WarFAIL 2

I'm not going to resort to piracy, but I'm also not paying 60 bucks for this game...I dislike the clientside servers, but the dealbreaker is the price. I just can't justify spending more than $50 on a pc game. I know xboxers do that all the time...but that was one thing I liked about pc gaming ...

Dark Forces II

did you try changing the resolution before you loaded the map? It didn't work for me personally...but on the steam forums I've heard a few success stories like that. I know you have retail, but i doubt there would be a difference in those regards.

EA does Blizzard one better: C&C 4 online all the time

At the same time though, Electronic Arts still thinks it can cater to the hardcore audience by harnessing new methods of storytelling and doing away with some of the stalwarts of the C&C universe. Those static-camera FMVs and long rambling monologues issued to your silent protagonist are now going ...

What is it you look for in games (primarily) ?

i prefer linear games. they usually have a more lasting cinematic feel for me. Most non linear games tend to have repetitive missions: "Kill this guy then come home...good....now kill this guy and come home." I'm mainly thinking about farcry 2 and fallout 3.

I love how in Call of Duty and Half ...

I've just found this monitor today and am seriously considering buying it:

Dell S2409W

$80 dollars off. Can't beat that!

A few concerns though. Will the 1920 X 1080 resolution be a problem for games? And also, it has a higher ...

Acrophobia in games

Have had it a little in a few games , although only just like shivers down my spine and such - particuarly in more realistic looking games and stuff.

on a semi-related note : Anyone else get a really weird falling/vertigo sensation when you jump from really high?

get a 16:9 with HDMI. Most PC games will support 16:9 Resolutions. I don't have an Xbox; but that's what i typically hear. You can always Pillarbox (Put black bars on the sides if your game doesn't support 16:9 resolutions.

General Monitor Questions

the average widescreen gaming monitor is usually a 19" 16:10. 16:10 has more support for older widescreen games like UT2K4. If you happened to play a nonwidescreen game with it you'd lose less monitor space due to the pillarboxing you'd have to do.

i suggest between 19" and 22" The best thing ...

Starcraft II drops LAN support

wow, blizzard really likes their money now... I always looked at them as respectable. I stayed out of WoW so the last game i bought from them was Warcraft III: Frozen Throne. And now that they're coming back they feel like a different company then what I knew back in the day.

Street Fighter IV : probably vert-
