I think it's mostly because of the care and dedication that goes into building and maintaining a gaming PC. It takes time. It takes effort. It's not just 'a tool' that doesn't need to look good. A custom-built PC can be a reflection of personality. That might sound a little bit poncey but let me ask: How do you decide what furniture to buy? It's the same sort of thing. Unless you're locking it away in a cupboard never to see the light of day, then it's going to be out. And if it's going to be out, and it's going to always be visible, you might a well give it a bit of visual flair. Better a lit-up box than one of those dull beige cases we all used back in the early 2000's, right?

 

fair enough but all that light would just annoy me no end for the same reason my g7 microserver i pulled the single blue led in the front panel as that was capable of illuminating a room esp as i tend to not have very bright lighting at home anyway its all pretty much the dimmest bulbs i can get and the cabling on my last self build was so bad i diddnt want to see it lol

Had a quick race on GT Sport before work today, looked excellent hopefully spend a bit of time playing it over the next couple of days.

Graphics look impressive, will be interesting seeing how the servers cope as most the main features need to be online.

you cant add stuff they dont have in stock to the basket so as the only gen 8 cpu in stock i chucked it in just to get a result i was actually thinking i5 i7 seems overkill i9 for lottery winners lol. Not going back to amd been there before and their chipsets sucked and tbh last time i looked it wasnt that much cheaper (last amd machine iremember using was a laptop and it took over an hour to install office 2013 from its own hdd (copied from a pen drive)

I've been playing no mans sky again. I thought I would after upgrading my HD7850 to 1060/6GB. I couldn't remember any of the keys so I started a new game. I would have kept on that one but I made a terrible mistake. I did the traveller missions before the atlas ones. I ended up 1.3million light years from the 1st atlas station.....

I went back to my old save game.

“Battleground was made by a developer from our country,” Congressman Lee is quoted as saying (via Sang). “The game has sold 12 million copies and have gone over 1.99 million concurrent players in 6 months. This is unprecedented in Korean gaming history.”

 

... that's 'cause most Korean games are P2W MMO's.

fair enough but for a quick how much and ccl are local its usually fine

 

in teh end i preorderd an xbox one x last night in game was going to get south park fractured butt whole there but it was £10 cheaper in sainsburys so bought there instead. Cue the damn pvr being a @^%$ when i tried to watch the south park episode that sets it up it recorded it fine but wouldnt play it some silly error that required a factory reset luckily it kept my recordings and events but if anyone suggests you get a youview box run away they suck esp since the update internet channels record fine but quite often need the box rebooting or you to go to a channel live before they will allow you to play recorded content some form of drm i expect

I was going to get the new South Park game, but it was £50, had DLC already ON RELEASE DATE!! that helps you in game (cosmetic items i don't mind about as they don't effect the game) and a Season pass.... this is everything wrong with modern games....

 

Going to wait for it to be on sale

Wait for a 'Game of the Year' edition or 'Bigger & Uncut' release - which'll have them all in.

I may have preordered the special edition of Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2017). The beta was great fun!

 

from what ive heard prepare for pay to win

the new South Park does look awesome, but I'm gonna wait for a sale!

I've just stopped playing Factorio as I managed to do 60 hours gaming in two weeks (prior to starting my new role here at school...), it was basically my crack.

Posted

I stopped counting at 60 hours (not the steam version) - I was regularly starting a session at 7pm and finishing at 3am or so pretty much every night for a couple weeks. I'd also go to bed thinking about how I could make my belts more efficient.

Have been pretty jaded since then and not keen on playing much else. Checked out Day of Infamy over the free weekend but didn't end up buying unfortunately as it was rather fun.

Finally got round to getting Re:Core.

 

Played a demo version a while back, and kept meaning to get it.

 

Not sure when I'm going to get round to playing it though...

I'm biding my time until Destiny 2 for PC releases (next week woooo!), but I've recently been playing a lot more Elite: Dangerous than I expected. Last night, a couple of random players were bounty hunting in my home system and invited me to their wing. Earned about 3.6 million credits, which is a welcome addition!
