Yeah I never noticed how slow and laggy it was until they did a side by side O_o.

I sorta want to know if you can do this for Bioshock 2, we know Infinite runs fine though.

Also really psyched about that Homeworld news, liking the WoW PVP revamp since I've not PVP'd for probably 4-5 years now.

Sweet, can't wait to see how he yields results, his trailer already had a tongue in cheek but straight to the point look to it lol.

Also what's going on with that Exclusives thread, it;s turned into a pointless consoles vs PC war and it ain't me or Zero who brought it on either =/. I just wish a mod would lock the thread and have it be done with.

Yeah that "exclusives are bad for the industry", we've got 2-3 users specifically using the thread to start a deliberate consoles vs PC slag off fest and so far it's gone well into the negative side of discussion to a point where 3 people have already slagged off the PC platform while me and Zero haven't once slagged off consoles or their users, it appalls me that there hasn't been any form of thread lock or moderation though. I guess this becomes another one of those "you brought it upon yourselves/stop playing the victim" type of scenarios again. I'll eventually get tired of seeing this and end up making a thread to call this kind of irrational behavior front and center for both mods and users alike because it;s honestly getting to be both fruitless and pointless. It just shows that the bigger group on here personally loathe the smaller group (us) and just want any excuse to slag and berate them while trying to pin them down so they cannot speak out (calling the victim card or claiming we brought it upon ourselves). It's just becoming a tiring turn of events that keep repeating over and over because one group seek to eradicate the other (they even show contempt towards Xbox and Nintendo owners on here).

I honestly don't know why it irks them, I don't midn games from PC going multiplat at all, just as long as my platform isn't compromised (30fps lock, sluggish controls, forced mechanics that don't belong, rubbish K+M support etc), that is all I wish for games on my system of pref, that and some games don't even work all that well with consoles and yet that strikes a bad nerve with some and I don't know why it's hard to understand the concept that RTS/Moba/MMO types are usually ebst played on PC, like I'm not trying to be all PCMR, that's just how it's always been. The only difference today is that PC can do a lot more and isn't retrained to not being able to do anything (we can use gamepads, joypads, arcade sticks, trackballs, hand-pads etc).

Wait wut, you keep getting re-directed to the front page from your own thread O_o, never seen that happen ebfore, well then again some links CGI gave me on another thread ended up taking me back to the home page for some reason.

You could post that issue at Trucks thread

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=197831

Btw, I also had that same problem once a few days ago, but I didn't gave it importance.

YOu had that issue before O-o?.

So far it's been me, Zero and Basil that have all had issues regarding being in different threads or creating our own, there seems to be aboslutely no escape from someone boiling it down to an us vs them or trying to make it look like we're out to get them when we aren't, all I want to do is educate and make points clear while also presenting info and have a few laughs but some obviously don't want any of that and are rather happy to attach a stigma to some of us in the hopes we'll vanish from their sight.

I'll probably get around to posting in that thread but my workplace gave me our extra hours back for this week and enxt so I'll look into posting the issues there next week if not the week after because something eventually eneds to be worked out on this site since it's getting rather silly how some people are secretly holding big grudges against some of us.

I was talking about the problem of going into a thread and being redirected to the home page.

The fools problem is one I rarely have mainly because I do very litle threads (only 19 in my 7 years here) and because most of them aren't PC centric debates.

By the way, and changing the subject, I'm starting to think that the VR headsets will fail.

First was the reveal that Sony's PSVR would need an aditional "Processing Box" that, as the Polygon article reveals, it's the size of a Wii. I won't go as far as the guys at wccftech did with their crazy theories, but I think we can all agree that given its name, the box will have aditional hardware to make the device work fine, suggesting that PS4 is not powerful enough (something that we all knew) but also implying that PSVR will be expensive.

Then there's Valve's and HTC Vive that, after being delayed until April'16, has seen some worrying news come to light (although from a not very trusty source) exposing all the manufacturing problems that HTC is having with it.

And now it's Oculus, that has announced that the CV1 will need a 64bit OS (not surprising or problematic) but also 4 USB ports, three of them 3.0. Now that may not seem like a big problem, but think a moment about it: how many USB ports does your PC have, and how many of them are you already using?

I made on on PC Games Hardware years ago, might want to check that one out for inspiration (and sources for some games). It's still getting updated, though slower than in the past. The 3 first posts are all lists of free games, with some sorting (post one is freeware, post 2 is free 2 play and post 3 is fangames, websites, special short time offers and the like). And while it's in german, the games are international versions, so linking to them should be no problem. I also went out of the way get most of them as direct downloads, meaning no steam or other launchers/shops as middlemen if possible.

Why are there so many news?! C'mon, it's almost X-mas and the only news we want to hear are which games Santa (or the three wise men) will bring us and which ones we'll have to buy by ourselfs.
