ATM, not enough programs take advantage of 4GB ram to justify the latency increases, heck 2GB is barely needed.

BTW, very nice system you're getting, be sure to thank your brother many times.

So true. I read the specs of a Mac a while back, and I was like "16 GB of RAM? Wtf?" Can you say overkill?

Okay, here's the thing here: You can't really compare first-person shooters with Oblivion, which you might call a first-person sworder. You can't compare a shooter's apples to an RPG's oranges. I mean, you can say that you like apples more than oranges, but you can't really compare them together. (Having said that, I'd just like to say that Oblivion is overall a better game than Halo. :D)

So, that just leaves Halo and F.E.A.R., and I think we know which one is the better. F.E.AR.

Meh, I prefer Halo over F.E.A.R, and I hate anything without a World War 2 or up tech firearm. With me, it's a matter of what came first, which would make it Conker > Halo > Doom 3.
Speakin' of Doom, I seem to remember you saying "Doom > Halo", Kim, that fit in with this conversation at all?

Wow, that's a really nice system... and awesome monitor! What games are you going to be playing on it? Just halo?
If you don't mind me recommending a game, I'd recommend P R E Y. Its definitely one of the best games I've ever played. (single player that is). It has a great story line, and I think you'll really enjoy it, its only around $25.

Enjoy that system bro

As much as I love Halo and play it more often than anything else, I think that F.E.A.R. is a much better game. Along with many other titles out there.

Someone forgot to intitiate the security sweep. Who knows what else found it's way in here. For all we know, someone might be making a post about how awesome that Superman game was...

Any self-respecting gamer would agree, no matter what their differences, that Superman Returns the videogame sucked big hairy greasy frag grenades.

Most of the PC issues posted here are the result of PEBKAC.

That. Machine. Needs. Windows. Vista.

Get Marathon Here
Get Marathon 2 and Infinity Here

Half Life 2 is better than Halo 1 single player. I will give you that.

But otherwise, Halo > Valve Games

And in my most humble oppinion Halo equivalent to Doom 3, each does what it meant to do perfectly.

But oblivion owns all. And there were no cut corners! As is a motto of my dad, you can spend 90% of your time on the last 10% of the project, or accept the project being 90% of what it could be. Instead of spending the extra year it would have taken to perfect the game, they released it, in my oppnion, 95% finished, at least.

Now, that PC is kick arse. Far better than my 6 year old DELL (can you say 64MB of vidram?).

Speaking of which, anyone have a 6 year old nVidia GeForce 4 Ti card on hand? 64MB or higher would be great, I fried mine.

And I kid you not when I say I could play Halo at 800x600, with full graphics settings, and more than acceptable framerates, on this machine. And then, my card died (the poor things cooling fan died and I didn't notice till it was too late), replaced it with an AGP 8x BFG GeForce 5700 OC.

And you know what happened? I can't play halo at all now, the framerates [u]suck[u] even with the settings on minimum.

MechWarrior 4 Vengance works now though, just in time to find that the game bombed in the multiplayer community. Thank you Microsoft for canceling production of the Sidewinder series of joysticks! You -blam!-'s! You make the best joystick in HISTORY and you stop production?![/end rant]

I'm saving up for a mid 2007 generation Alienware 5700.
