Welcome to my pain.

Simple solution: Don't update.
You're only throwing away money anyway.
Game consoles get cheap and then after a while usually increase in value. At least here they do.
PC parts, with only some odd exceptions eg voodoo cards, usually become near worthless. Yes really old PCs can be worth something but it's unusual types for the most part, Amigas and other old systems like that can be worth something.
Ok fine you can spend money on current PC gear and then sell on after a little while but it's a constant battle with variables, it's easier to be upgrading cars than PC gear.
Too much effort for little or no gain. Most people would be losing money constantly.
Snob :wacko:
Video cards go for more than retail anyway. :revwacko:
Spending money on video games is nothing but a waste of money anyway :shrug:.
PC :pirate:
I've spent less than 200 bucks on my comp almost half of which was for storage and am up to about 50 PS3/360 ports. Maybe even a couple that have come out on the PS4/Bone. Almost all of which running much higher than either last gen system can handle. Also never spent a dime on games :P
Only a few games I haven't been able to run so far. Point is I'm saying that in my case I believe I have more than got my monies worth PC gaming.
Anyhow back to FFX for the 10th bloody playthrough - it really almost feels like a new game (just keep telling myself that :whistle: ) Have fun arguing boys :P
Arguing? :pwacko:
:-F
PLEASE GUYS I JUST WANT US TO BE A FAMILY AGAIN. :wacko:
Ofc, you should just game how you want to, I feel like we've reached a point where it's almost entire a matter of preference save for odd exclusives and what have you.
For me investing in a PC served a dual purpose as I needed a machine that could run some really bizarre computations for work and not shit the bed if I was watching a youtube video, so it just made sense to beef it up a little into a gaming PC.
Want learn simple trick how I make $10,000 an hour working from home for two seconds a year?
PC vs Console
Console: I am an expencive gaming machine!
PC. I am an expencive multi-utility machine that can run games even better AND do more
Console: We have amazing social media aspects and can show your friends pictures of your cock whenEVER YOU WANT!
PC: We invented social media, are rather embaressed about that fact but STILL have more social media options than a console...
Console: Our game soundtracks are lower quality mp3s than even apple shoves out!
PC: We mostly use OGG/WAV and give the ability to go higher if you wish (and if we dont then you can mod it so it does).
Console: You can create an email on us!!!
PC: You can create the works of davinci on us
Console: You can play 1001 shiity "indie" games on me and barely any of them will actually be good!
PC: You can play 1000001 shitty "indie" on me and some of them will actually BE GOOD
Console: When you get bored of games, YOU CAN WATCH GAMES ON ME!
PC: when you get bored of games, you can MAKE GAMES ON ME....
Consle: I have to have a team of highly skilled, trained and paid morons called "marketing departments" to find ways to get YOU to buy me!
PC: .....Those "marketing departments" use me to create it all on.....kill me, please....
Console: I get ALL the exclucive content because im SO amazing ...but don't have the power to run it all
PC: I get hardly any of the exclucive content, its MADE on me, I have the power to run EVEEERRYYYTTTTHIIINNNGG!!! then it's cut back to work on THAT THING...then cut back AGAIN to work on me so i seem inferior....again, this is what marketing departments cause, kill me, please....
Console: I take up hardly any space and burn out within a year or 2 ^^ (and on some of me you can cook an egg on top!)
PC: I take up quite a bit of space but burn out 10 years or so later....and you can plug a cooker into me to cook an egg...much safer...
Console: I have SUPER stylish names
PC: ....you can call me honeybuns if thats what floats your boat *shrugs* am not fussed
Console: Because we're are like, SO amazing and do way more on our servers, you have to PAY to go online with me but you know you pay for the service ;)
PC: You DON'T pay on me to get the EXACT same service.
Console: Because idio- I mean uh, FANS...will buy anything, within 6 years ill be obsolete so you can buy the NEXT CONSOLE!
PC: Due to this and previous facts, my parts will now stay relevant for much longer meaning you get more value for your money out of me (specially if you buy games on deal).
Console: I hate you pc why don't you fuck off !?
PC: Im sorry what? I cant hear you over the sound of HOW LOUD YOUR FUCKING COOLING FAN IS!
Console: Im gonna get my highly trained teenagers to shout at you!
PC: ......wait RIGHT there while i contact china....
couldn't get KOTOR 2 to work yesterday installed just fine try launching it afterwards it was always "please insert disc" grabbed a no cd patch crash after crash got it to work only after I put it in the installed folder started the game created a character tried to skip the intro movie and CRASH straight into the trash bin it went along with jedi outcast. I spent half an hour trying to figure out how to finish the level I was on I even looked at a guide for it, a door was supposed to unlock after blowing up those boob nipple cannons no new doors were unlocked there were no switches I even tried blowing up all the locked doors(which didn't work)
I tried restarting the level thinking that might fix the issue it didn't make a difference. I might try finding a disc image of the game instead of a full rip. downloaded KOTOR and got it working today it's got lag issues(especially in smokey areas) even on medium(horrible on high and no difference on low) with shadows and grass off.
Consoles>>>>PC
Tested by 7 russians at 10x %))))))))
Mass Effect 3 ad all DLC in the DLC pack installed.
It took forever.
Been playing Neutopia lately. Also good shit.
Im programming a granular synthesis drone for the gameboy. It is currently silent, but all of the sliders work. :wacko:

I had a good shit.
Squelching good time.
Belching good fart.
Ahhh yes, that is the only console FPS i've ever enjoyed and perfect dark by extension. Incidently, I bought duke nuke forever a couple of years back for like 2 pound so im finally trying it. I won't lie it isn't amazing but it isn't to bad either, colonial marine and borderlands are far worse :/ Only thing I dislike is the fact you can tell gearwank cut major sections of the game out.
Ha nice one man, i've been thinking of doing this to my gameboy:
