DieRuhe: I'm just here to applaud this thread.
MY HAND TO GOD it wasn't my idea!

I'm waiting for someone to call this an attention grab by me, like I gave WinterSnowfall a game code and told him to start it. :P

Hey, you started it! Had I not seen your post about a new rig I never would have turned into a hardware demon-cat with 8 lives.

Well, OK, maybe it's my fault this time...

tinyE: Has anyone here played the first Mass Effect?
Yep. Pretty much the only one in the series worth playing. It's a lot like KOTOR so you should like it, although the combat is much more action heavy.

Some of us don't really have a life, the screen is our little window and everything else is darkness! Please don't hurt our feelings :(

On a side note, and since I'm here anyway...enjoy that new computer of yours! I'll stick to my soon-to-be 6 years old pile of random pieces and bolts...it has yet to catch fire.
What, tinyE doesn't play on Comodore 64?
Hey, I still play on my C64 Joystick!

I was lucky enough to catch a Costco sale in November; They had an AMD Ryzen 7, 16Gb, RX 550 4Gb graphics, 1 Tb HD on sale for $600. Low end as a gaming PC goes, but it's the first time I've ever seen an actual Gaming PC for that price at all, low end or otherwise. Tom's Hardware spoke well of all the components so I considered it a blessing and ran with it.

Sad news,indeed but all this sort of thing does is makes it's head bigger.

I bought the whole Mass Effect series in an Origin sale (when it was still just ME 1, 2 and 3) because it got so much praise, only to find out, after finishing the prologue chapter, that indeed I don't like Science Fiction and the setting bores me.

*edit: than again, The Witcher 1 is a fantasy game and I do like fantasy, but it bored me because of Geralt of Riva being such a stoic character - and I had bought 2 and 3 as well because of their acclaiming before trying out the series.

tinyE: I'm actually being throttled by my ISP right now. :P Been downloading SR 4 for the last 3 hours at 500kb a second.
Where I live the ISP never throttle the connection, it's illegal (moves the knife in the wound). Still, I rarely reach the 500kbps. We use telegraph to download data.

I downloaded Saints Row 4. Took me six hours. :P
500Kb was what I had up until about a year r so ago when my ISP got a new satellite (I guess). Now, my upload is still a joke. Like I tell people when they want to MP, If I shot at you, you would have already blown my ass to pieces five minutes before my shot ever got to you.

Sigh, I have soo many bad memories about online shooters. I would be quite good at them, as my few LAN parties prove, but on the internet... my goodness. All the lagging, random spawning, invisible moves and so on made it seem a surreal nightmarish movie. I stopped playing online years ago because I was being pulverized without even knowing why.

P.S. I needed A WEEK to download The Witcher 3. Seriously.
Thank God for pre-load.

I entered a sweepstakes today for a 58 core, 3TB Ram, 48TB Hdd/ssd, 3x P6000, beast of a machine. On $85k retail. I'd I win it, I'll probably just play elder scrolls arena on it. :)

(really, I'll turn everything to ridiculous smack on kerbal space program)

Not sure what to feel about this statement from a user called Catnip.
