Momma There Goes That Man Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 NBA Live still exists? No, it doesn't. The current ****ization of it shouldn't even be called Live and be listed among previous greats in the series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiCkSoULjA Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 No, it doesn't. The current ****ization of it shouldn't even be called Live and be listed among previous greats in the series Live hasn't been "great" since the original Playstation days, that series went to **** a long long long time ago. One of my favorite sports games of all time was Live 96 that was a classic 19 years ago WOW! getting old. NBA 2k has constantly put out a better product since its orginal release on Dreamcast with a few down years in between then and now and even in those down years the games has been better than Live.

S.T.real,lights,out Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 So this is a bit OT but are any of you guys have a gaming PC? Thinking about buying one to play some Day Z. Any suggestions on a non super expensive one would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live 95 on SNES was my game man. The fact that you could trade players amazed me at the time. I also enjoyed them all actuslly up to about 2004. I loved once they introduced the freestyle moves with the right thumbstick. Once 2005 hit it really started losing it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions on a non super expensive one would be appreciated. My PC is fairly gamingish. Could use a better graphics card, but it gets the job done. If you gave a budget, I'm sure you'll get a number of suggestions for builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDawg Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I looked into gaming pcs for wayyy down the road. Alienware is relatively cheap, but it's more of an expensive console than a computer, though it does run windows. There are reasonably priced gaming computers out there but the real good ones are real freakin expensive. There's a cheaper model by a company named digital storm. I forget the model but it was a cheaper one. If I was going to get one now (I'm not) is probably go with aomething like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momma There Goes That Man Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 My brother in law built a really nice rig and it was fairly easy based on what he says. I have no specs or anything but I know what he has is pretty good and he came out esy ahead compared to if he bought one at that level. That might be something to consider if you enjoy they type of thing. It's not for me, I just want to buy something ready to go out of the box.

Mr. Sinister Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 A little OT, but I remember theze two kids in my comp lab class back in 8th grade who were into building gaming pc's and such. Man they must be making some serious bank right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, $500 isn't really gonna get you a great gaming PC; certainly won't be VR ready if you have any interest in that. But if that hasn't scared you off, the AMD Fusion APUs may be a good choice to give you some affordable bang for your buck combining a CPU with a legit GPU in one package. You could even upgrade the graphics by adding in a discreet AMD graphics card to work with the on-board GPU through crossfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont Taze Me Bro Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Prob like $500.

I bought an alienware back in 2011, and am running intel i7 quad core (2.80 GHz), 6 GB RAM and upgraded to a Nvidia geforce GTX 560 ti (back in 2012) and I can run basically any game in ultra and high settings with really good FPS and no lag. My vid card is old by current standards, not 100% sure but I think the GT series might offer less than the GTX as far as performance. Make sure its not an integrated card and you can upgrade. With that, gotta make sure to double check the wattage on the power supply and what your mother board will allow. Edit: I'd like to add that a couple of games I could run at ultra if I wanted. I typically run at medium or high to get a better FPS. Games I've played on PC were BF3, Tera Online, Guild Wars 2, Elder Scrolls Online, Wildstar Online, WoW, etc. Basically, if an mmorpg has come out with online pvp, I've given it a run.

The Evil Genius Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Get a new thread, nerds. Seriously - it's cool that we have gamers who play both consoles and pc's. If anyone was looking for LOTF on XBox One at $9 as originally intended, it might still happen. Word is that it might come up again at that price on Friday.

Dont Taze Me Bro Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Downloading Alien Isolation now.......will start playing it tomorrow most likely. Is the season pass worth it? Only $12, compared to $29 regular price. Also, is Forza 5 worth it? Or is something new coming out? It was $29 (I think) and then I saw a Forza 5/Horizon 2 bundle pack for $73 (regular $109). Is Forza Horizon newer and better? It's been years since I played a Forza game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayz in pretty much unplayable right now with the lag and desync. They are going to switch engines and stuff too. H1Z1 is pretty fun, has a real fun battle royal mode and is probably easier on the hardware to run smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Weird futuristic weapons in 1880's London, and misleading your consumers about the graphics? Double whammy Steampunk anyone? I thought gamers would know that genre well. I read somewhere that it looks like a PS4 game and plays like a PS2 game and that it's extremely linear in story progression.

Warhead36 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Yeah I heard it's super short, like 5 hour campaign. You can't have a single player only game and have it be that short, that's just absurd. It looked like it could have been pretty cool premise, but they failed horribly in execution.

Mr. Sinister Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I kinda feel bad for the developers and people who wotked to put ghis game out.... A little This aint like 25-30 years ago, where the economy was more manageable, and games didnt run on these expensive space age processors, and when you put out some bs you could get a second chance. When a game gets hyped to this degree, and fails to this degree, heads roll French Revolution style, and careers are ended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momma There Goes That Man Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I'm still intrigued by it once it goes on sale. It seems the cinematic feel and presentation are top notch it's just linear and a little old fashioned with the controls. Last I heard, campaign was around 8 hours too. I don't know, I'll give it a shot eventually. The world and story will keep me interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
