are you looking for something that will challenge your pc?

i really enjoyed playing mass effect 3. the plot and characters were amazing but it isnt a particularly demanding game for your GPU and CPU

If you're willing to pay for some games, try games on Steam.

Yea, I m totally looking for some heavy PC games.

Is mass effect better than Crysis 2 DX11 patched ?


Lately, I just felt like, PC gaming is just down so much compare to like 5 yrs ago.

I just checked the video out on youtube. Looking pretty sweeeet.

Main reason of upgrading my system is for Battlefield 3 and MW3 actually.
Its just now, there is no good games i can test out.

there's not much to test on your new system...all you're going to notice is higher frame rates/less lag/faster load times if your computer is faster than the previous one

Just enjoy life, fresh air, and time with family and friends before you have to give your life over to Blizzard once D3 comes out. I started saying my goodbyes after the Beta announcement..

Older games are better; play through HL2 + Ep 1 + 2 again on max everything...who cares if it doesn't look amazing, the story is fucking awesome.

yeah if you want something that's the most taxing on your computer it would probably be Metro 2033

apparently all single GPU computers out there cannot handle max settings smoothly...you'll need those dual-GPU cards with tons of VRAM lol

Iv only played world of Warcraft. Large raids with ultra graphics can be a good workout for the comp. I'm looking forwards to the warhammer mmo when ever it comes out.

Sweet Deal. DRM Free. You also get keys for Steam and Desura. The average price has gone up to $5.49, so I payed $5.50 USD and received the previous bundle, as well. That's 12 games total. Damn!
