    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    Problem I've found is that too damn many people bought the digital version, which comes with no guest passes (why, I don't know). Between begging here, another forum, and trolling my Facebook and IRL friends, I've yet to get a hold of a guest pass. ~_~

    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    I'd still love to get a guest pass if any of you got a boxed copy and haven't already given them all out so I can at least give it a whirl.

    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    Well it's not exactly what I want; I want an awesome Diablo game. However, Grim Dawn looks/sounds incredible. Hadn't heard of it before you posted it, but it looks like I may have to break my own wait-and-see-on-other-Kickstarters stance and kick some funds their way.

    Seeking a new laptop

    Yeah, let me know when one of those is in the same price range as the Toshibas Tagaziel linked. It's not worth the additional grand unless you simply have that much money to burn for what amount to aesthetic differences, asides from the SSD. But you can get an SSD for any laptop, and you'll pay...

    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    Launch day shit was utterly predictable. Not enough servers (they never have enough servers) to handle the day 1 zerg-rush compounded by some bugs that slipped through their 8343 year development cycle. Anyway, did anyone buy the box version? I ask because I hear there's some guest passes to...

    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    Rather disappointing. Boyarsky's answers were pretty generic and uninformative. Also saddening to hear they had a more desert Ranger-y concept for the Demon Hunter to begin with, which would've been great, but then they decided they had to "spice it up" and made the DH the eye-rolling, fan-fic...

    Seeking a new laptop

    Yeah, the Zenbook is nice, but you're paying a huge premium for that niceness, and it's not what you'd call a capable gaming machine.

    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    This is one of my biggest issues with the online only crap. They're snubbing all their customers who played Diablo offline. By the admission of a blizzard rep, the number of Diablo players who never went online was not insignificant. Pretending that Diablo is all about the online "experience" is...

    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    With everything being server-side, there's nothing that could be gleaned from offline/LAN play that would help anyone disrupt the online game. They're just trying to force Bnet 2.0 down everyone's throats and use it as DRM.

    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    Yes, that is a big obstacle to me as well. That plus the decision not to allow LAN play for no good reason (except as it would make it easier to bypass the draconian DRM).

    Hell is not frozen yet! (Diablo 3)

    So, game comes out in 6 days. What's everyone's opinions? I can't decide. On the one hand, it's Diablo. On the other, it's Diablo by a completely different team and they've screwed with a lot of stuff. It'd be one thing if I could return the game if I didn't like it, but since good ol'...

    Umm... when was a Macbook mentioned?

    Kickstarter for Battlechess started, Interplay

    Can't play against an AI opponent for practice with a physical chess set, or against other people who aren't in the same room with you. Battle Chess's claim to fame was its animated pieces and depicting piece captures with violent death animations. But yeah... this would only be...

    Seeking a new laptop

    They seem identical asides from the APU, and the E-450 is superior to the E-300. Therefore, seeing as they're the same price, get the one with the E-450.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    It's hard for me to imagine being less interested in anything than I am in an Elder Scrolls MMO. Though revisiting Vvardenfell with better graphics would be neat.

    upgrading my pc - is my psu up for it?

    Yeah, PCIe 3.0 cards will work just fine on PCIe 2.0, and there won't be any performance difference. IMO, 7850 is definitely the best bang-for-your-buck card out currently. It's impossible to say for certain it will work with your PSU, but I'm confident your wattage won't be an issue unless...

    upgrading my pc - is my psu up for it?

    Yeah, I hear that a lot. Myself, I've had zero driver issues with my 6950 in the year or so I've had it. I have nothing against Nvidia (my previous card was an 8800GTS), but at the moment, unless you're going to spend $500 for a 680 (and can find it in stock), the Radeon 7xxx series is simply...

    This has to be a joke, right? RIGHT?

    This man has a point. Still, at that time, that was just one stain on a series that otherwise had a lot to offer. I think Star Wars Kinect just crossed a certain line that the franchise had not, as of yet, managed to cross. A line that nobody wanted it to cross. I mean, in comparison to this...

    Jane Jensen Kickstarter - Creator of Gabriel Knight

    No no, I'm not demanding that Jane show anything more. I'm saying that I need to see more from the Kickstarters I've already supported before I'm ready to put more into other Kickstarters, regardless of the merits of their work. I also don't mean to suggest that this applies to everyone. This...

    upgrading my pc - is my psu up for it?

    Get a Radeon 7850 instead. Same price range as the 560ti (there's one on Newegg for as low as $220 after rebate at moment), better performance, much lower power usage. 500W would be more than enough for a rig using that card. Amperage on the 12V rail is a possible concern, but I bet you'd be...
