    Tales vs Lost Odyssey?

    I'm looking for an RPG on the 360 to play, cause I haven't played an RPG since...ever. I've narrowed it down to tales of vesperia and lost odyssey. I've heard from some LO gets slow and boring, and tales combat ruined the game for some. What do you guys recommend?

    vista 64bit hates TF2?

    Every other game runs perfectly from Steam, but for some reason TF2 is just slow as hell. By slow I mean how long it takes to load. I'll double click on the game, it'll say "launching TF2" and stay there for about 30 seconds. Then the TF2 background pops up and it says loading at the lower right...

    Craigslist

    I want to buy a xbox but the new ones are all out of my price range. I'm wondering if it's safe to buy one off craigslist. Does the warranty transfer and everything? Also, I don't have my "own" HDTV, but I DO have a 22inch computer monitor. If I hook it up to that, what resolution will it be...

    I was considering the new macbook or the Dell m1330. The m1330 is a lot cheaper for better specs, but I heard the build quality isn't very good. Are there any other suggestions? I've yet to find a 13 inch one with 8600GT or better. Thanks.

    fallout problem (same with oblivion)

    I solved the problem with the mouse lag w/ ATT, but I notice that there's constant "lag" like in oblivion, with or without vsync. The fps really isn't lagging, but it just feels like the frames are skipping a little bit. I had the same problem in oblivion and someone said it's just the way the...

    to those that have both PC and Console

    Do you guys play your console at all by yourself? The only times I touch my 360 is when my friends come over, and we do a lil halo/cod4. But other than that, I think console gaming is so boring, especially because of communication barriers. Halo gets sooo boring after a while, it's not even fun...

    Oblivion weird stuttering

    Q9500, 4 gigs of ram, Vistiontek 4870, and Vista 64 bit I reinstalled the game, and I'm getting really good FPS now. However, in some areas I feel a lot of stuttering that's not fps related. Like I'll be at 90fps, but it feels as if my screen is vibrating and skipping frames or something...

    Anyone using a 4870 yet?

    I guess I'm just really surprised, but I did not expect the 4870 to be THAT fast...I mean it's faster than the 260 across the board, yet it's cheaper, and has less ram. I've always used Nvidia cards, so I'm kind of scared to switch over. Is anyone using a 4870 already and happy with it? Thanks.

    I'm still trying to decide between the v600b and the antec 900...I know they're VERY different cases, but I seem to like certain elements of both.

    Duo core bad idea now?

    I'm having trouble deciding between the E8400 and the Q9300. I'm aware that right now the 8400 is a lil faster in most games, but are any upcomming games going to support quad core? I know it's more future proof, but I'm only interested in gaming on my pc. Is it true that by the time games can...

    Vista 64bit bugs?

    I'm buying a new rig with 4 gigs of ddr2 800 mhz ram. I know it's better to get 64 bit, but if I don't plan on upgrading, I heard that (tomhardware) 32 bit would give the same performance because 64bit it self uses more memory. But aside from that, does 64 bit still have incompatability issues...

    G5-very uncomfortable

    My razer deathadder broke, so I had to buy a new mouse. I heard a lot of great things about the G5, so I bought one for $50 at Best Buy. However, it feels very clunky in my hands, and the texture on it is horrible. It feels like cheap scaled plastic...did I get ripped off or something?
