I loved those old school Lucasarts games, Sam & Max Hit the Road and Day of the Tentacle are still some of my favorite PC games

Deus Ex: Human Revolution

I never got around to finishing this last year, and I'm still undecided on Far Cry 3.

Anyone here have experience with gaming PCs? At the end of this gen, I'm strongly considering abandoning consoles and just insvesting in a quality rig that will run games for the next couple of years. I could use some advice :pimp:

My first bit of advice would be not to get an all-in-one. Seriously, I bought one last year and recently found out that I couldn't upgrade the fairly average hardware it came with so until I can get some source of income I'm stuck with very dated components. If you're looking for something in a modest price range you could build or even buy whole a desktop with over 3Ghz quad core processing, a modern range GPU like the Radeon 6000 series, 4GB RAM, 1TB physical memory and a proper screen/wired mouse and keyboard for something like £600 if you look around enough. I can't imagine there's going to be much out there in the next couple of years that something with those specs won't be able to run on decent looking settings. If money's not a problem you could just buy something like an Alienware gaming PC that's all but guaranteed to run all of the next few years' games on ultra settings but personally I think those things are total ripoffs when you could build something that runs just as well for a much lower price.

That sounds a bit skimpy :p:

To anyone buying a gaming rig, it's not difficult. Just get expensive components like a good cpu, one of the fancier nvidia geforce graphic cards and a lot of ram (like 8gb).

I would also suggest getting an SSD harddrive for keeping your OS and programs on. They are a bit pricey, but seriously prod anus.

Hey, we all make stupid mistakes every now and then. I'll change it.

Oh definitely I won't be getting an all-in-one. Gotta get a one that is flexible with it's upgrades, yet not too over the top expensive since there's always room for improvment

The demo is FANTASTIC.

1 & 3 were among my favorite ps2 games of all time. DO WANT.

This is probably the best so far amazingly. So much more detailed and ambitious.
