This is my most anticipated game in years. Maybe decades. I'm tempted to take the 10th off.

LOL, I was just having this conversation with a friend yesterday. I don't want all the unemployed dudes to get the good guns ahead of me and find all the hidey holes.
I prepaid....may even go over and pick it up at 12 am.
I'm picking it up at midnight AND taking the 10th off. Me and two of my other gaming faggot buddies. Can't wait!! Buying a 5.1 dolby headset too.

Which headset? Tritton? Astro?

Sold. Just tell me which one to buy.
there is a big different though, hence the price difference for the a40s. the trittons aren't 5.1, the a40s are. pete if you have a 5.1 channel receiver you can run your 360 through it and save money and just buy some 5.1 headphones. if not, and you want to take full advantage of the dolby 5.1 sound, you need to step up to the pro series trittons or the a40s.hell yes you can, you can hear all sorts of directional sounds- footsteps, gunfire, etc. helps a ton.People who play FPS games on consoles are huge losers, and not real FPS fans.

Tritton 720's or Astro A40s. A40s are by far the best but cost $250. Both have dedicated mixers.

The 720's are indeed simulated 5.1, but I personally think they sounded better and more realistic than the "true 5.1" pros. Also, if you want to chat, you'll need more than just 5.1 headphones.

Thanks guys.
I believe I am going to go with the Tritton 720, and not the Astro because of price.
However, just to confirm, I don't have a 5.1 receiver, but I will still be cool if I get the Tritton 720 (i.e. I don't need an extra receiver, correct?).
How can you console guys stand the fact that this game (and most console games) is rendered at 1024x600 ???a) modern warfare was rendered at 1024 x 600 and it didn't create any problems

I spent $200 on my hardware?
1. Yes, and that is pathetic.you're such a dolt, it's hilarious.
2. Upscaling doesn't do sh*t
3. Um, that is not true. Only a very very very very very very cheap computer - one with a bad cpu and integrated graphics are incapable of running it higher than the consoles. My computer can play it (MW1, WAW) with ease @ 1920x1200, with AA and AF

and try again on 3. i said only top of the line computers will run the game at it's highest settings. didn't say anything about running it higher than consoles. there's little doubt in my mind that you have a top of the line computer, but not everyone else does :lol:
you should know better than anyone (because this has to do with computers) that gamers don't play games at extreme settings. hell, the console settings are probably higher than most experienced gamers are playing at.
and no one here is going to blame you for only playing a few hours per month, there really aren't any good pc games to spend your time with.
and it's not fair to say the game isn't graphically demanding and then discard anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering

look, i've been playing FPS on pc's since before you knew what a headshot was. i was/still am a virtual god in the CPMA community. i've been to quakecon and worked for the CPL through CAL. those days are over. game producers/manufacturers gave up on the pc community a long time ago and focus now where the biggest customer base is, consoles. you can deny it all you want but you're living in the past

How is Crysis still treating you?
We got a call from Microsoft who said they want us to do Live Anywhere for CoD 4. They just left a message--we didn’t actually get the phone call. We talked about it, and really feel that we worked really hard on the Xbox 360 version, and there’s a lot of things that we do that we didn’t do for the PC because of the control you have with a mouse and keyboard which allows you to have a higher level of precision. When you are on the 360, you have auto-aim, and you have a movement compensator so when you’re getting close to the edge of the screen it moves really quickly, but when you’re in the middle of the screen it slows down so you can target. We don’t do that on the PC.

Buddy of mine picked up MW2 Monster Energy drink at Wal-Mart in Olathe today. Inside the box he won a MW2 xbox live theme!! WOOT WOOT!
Also, lol at arguing about price when it comes to gaming. PC gaming is far more expensive.
And I'm glad you picked up on the Crysis jab. And nice try at putting down a port of a crapty game. You're stuck bitching about a crapty port of a great game. Sucks for you.
Let me know how awesome Sims 3 is, since that's the only game out on PC this year. Maybe Diablo 3 will make it out before New Years? How will you share your time between 2 whole games???

OH HEY, it's mr. Pissclams from RTCW :D
Well you've sure had an interesting decline in your gaming career! You reached your height of self accomplishment around 03, where you so skillfully puckered your lips to accommodate the all star h4x cast of team fx. I was impressed when you dropped the admin hat to fulfill your aspirations as a RTCW SOLDAT.... and what a statement you made self vaping yourself in the lower bunker on shrub. And finally, you've been led to the cute little consoles, taking up the argument against PC gaming. Tbh, I'm surprised you're not advocating Wii Sports- all tendencies certainly point in that direction.

I upgrade my PC regardless of games. They are just an added benefit of having a good computer.
i'm not arguing that console fps gaming is better- my point is that it's dead. well, with the exception of guys like lox and apparently yourself... there's nothing that can compare to pc fps gaming, but developers' main focus is where the $$ is, and that's consoles. they develop for them, not the pc crowd, and it will never, ever, be any different. that's just reality.here's to hoping you're right :beerchug:
It's not dead. This weekend I"ll be playing borderlands, before it's release I'll be playing the PC exclusive game killingfloor, and it's boatload of free content they just released for it. I'll agree to a certain extent, FPS competitive gaming does feel dead right now on pc. But saying PC FPS is dead when it still has huge big exclusives like crysis, arma, killing floor...it's just silly. Next gen games playground is on the pc, it's where we get a glimpse of the future.

Whats the 3 year old crappy game? Crysis? Please, you'll be spamming this message board with the same drivel you've been spewing about Modern Warfare 2.

This is awesome. Keep proving my point. You're making a big deal about a 3 year old game because that is all PC has.

Crysis is an ok game, nothing wrong with it. As far as "no good games on the pc"...not at all. Games that console people think are amazing wouldn't end up very popular on the PC anyway because PC gamers have higher standards.
Ah yes, time to break out the sales pie-charts. Data promotes wii purchase... have fun with that. :)
As stated, I own a PC, 360, and wii. If available the FPS are purchased on PC. Now at your house, I'm sure your pc does suck, no argument there. Maybe mom will upgrade this Christmas?
Its funny that the only argument console gamers have is "our games sell better"

I wasn't comparing sales between consoles and PC. I was showing the most popular PC games. Which are all old and suck. Because PC gaming is dead.
And my PC- Quadro 5800, 2.8 Ghz i7, 8 GB. I still game a little bit on PC. It's just difficult when there is nothing for it. But yeah, let's keep digging a hole for yourself. This is fun.

Bestbuy huh... weren't you the guy on page 1 that was pissin your britches about the 720 headset from bestbuy? $300 for a headset that "simulates" surround sound.... Now thats a L O L. Kinda fitting of how the console "simulates" the FPS experience found on pc tho. Knowing that lil tid bit, I bet you paid $100 for the 360 wireless adapter....(fail) Clearly I'm the one playing the "idiot role"....
You know, it's fine if you're a casual console gamer who plays games on the weekend and want to check out mw2, that concession to mediocrity is forgivable. BUT, if you're a douchebag who takes the day off from work to twiddle your thumbs on a $60 game wearing a $300 headset with your collectors edition night vision goggles all while boasting sales charts and your personal superiority because you advocate crapty purchases, your ass needs to be SHOT.
If your not looking to single handily recover the economy through personal spending, pc gamers seem to like the speedlink line of true 5.1 headsets... available for half the price, and no, not available at bestbuy. :blush: They have the added benefit of not looking like a headset from 1984....or maybe the retro look of the TRITTON is your thing...

"you're bragging about how PC gaming is purely for FPS gaming"
It even took you two replies 40 minutes apart for you to think of a comeback. Nice one.
"And you "running" lightwave with a system with "1/4 the horsepower" is pretty LOL when you probably don't even know how to use it, especially when I'm doing the most demanding thing possible with millions of dollars on the line."
"The 2 idiots (you and the other guy) in this thread can't comprehend this argument. PC GAMING IS DEAD. HAVE FUN WITH WOW AND YOUR TWO AWESOME GAMES A YEAR."
about the headset, I had no idea how much it cost, I thought you said it was $250, guess that was something different. Still....$120 for a headset that doesn't do surround when true 5.1 sets exist for the same or less...Quote"The 2 idiots (you and the other guy) in this thread can't comprehend this argument. PC GAMING IS DEAD. HAVE FUN WITH WOW AND YOUR TWO AWESOME GAMES A YEAR."
My argument is primarily that PC gaming is better for FPS. Though I'd also say PC gaming is far from dead. The newest gaming software technology has generally always made it's debut on pc. Certain games like what you mentioned, wow, can single handily carry pc gaming. Then you have your STEAMS, your direct 2 drives, etc. The software companies whom develop your console have generally always started making games in the PC mod community.
If you want to talk about the argument, then tell me how playing MW2 is a superior experience on the console... most people would start babbling about there 100" projection screen and there fluffy couch, somehow you've failed to do much more than talk about how important you are irl.
What good games come out for consoles only? Gran Turismo? Metal Gear Solid? That is why I own a PS3 as well.

any game is better when more people are playing it

Im actually a fan of Railroad Tycoon 2. :users:
about the headset, I had no idea how much it cost, I thought you said it was $250, guess that was something different. Still....$120 for a headset that doesn't do surround when true 5.1 sets exist for the same or less...Quote"The 2 idiots (you and the other guy) in this thread can't comprehend this argument. PC GAMING IS DEAD. HAVE FUN WITH WOW AND YOUR TWO AWESOME GAMES A YEAR."
My argument is primarily that PC gaming is better for FPS. Though I'd also say PC gaming is far from dead. The newest gaming software technology has generally always made it's debut on pc. Certain games like what you mentioned, wow, can single handily carry pc gaming. Then you have your STEAMS, your direct 2 drives, etc. The software companies whom develop your console have generally always started making games in the PC mod community.

You argument is falling on deaf ears because nowhere for 3 pages has anyone argued that PC gaming is inferior for FPS gaming. And you have yet to give me a good reason why PC gaming isn't dead. Of course WOW will succeed, but one massively popular game for a system is not "carrying" it at all. It's one game in a sea of crap. Bragging about technology is useless without the games to distribute on them. Don't get me wrong, I always have Steam running, but there is absolutely nothing out there I'd buy. Left 4 Dead is the only game this year I've had any interest at all in playing. It's a pathetic community when Counter Strike is still in the top 10 in sales on Steam charts, consistently.
And what is it with retards having to reply twice to the same post? How hard is it to complete a thought in one setting? And for fracks sake, that is the worst looking youtube channel screen i've ever seen. link to a video directly if you want me to watch it. I can't look at something that horrific for very long. I'll be damned if I subscribe to that.

loX, are you a cat fan?LOL no...Lox is your typical ku fan, lives in Topeka but never set foot in a ku classroom.
just let me know if you can think of one fps exclusive that isn't laffable. :) You got a ps3? Killzone perhaps?

Just like old times...clams getting his ducks in a row for the ban....
I wouldn't say I'm a fan of any college. I watched the ku championship game...guess that makes me a fanboy. btw, since when is attending a college a prerequisite for being a fan of any college? That's a pretty elitist attitude for someone so accustomed to fail. :nono:you used to talk ku smack, i guess i just figured you were a fan since you were sucking their teet 5 years ago before you stalked me over here.

and no, attending a college is not a prereq for being a fan of said college. no one said it was. and i bet you're a huge yankee's fan, new england patriots fan, and whatever other bandwagon you can ride on fan as well. like most ku fans, you didn't go there, but it sure is fun to pick a winner to root for huh?! :woohoo:
ew, did you hear about goldeneye 2010? :ohno:
I can't believe you guys are arguing over this dumb topic. Let me break it down for you in how I see it:
- FPS on PC used to be huge and the only thing people played (see Counterstrike, Tribes, and Unreal Tourny, all of which I played ruthlessly).
- FPS has made it's way to the console and is now a gold mine due to little kids (see Halo)
- Do hardcore FPS players on PC still exist? Yes, and in big numbers. Developers have steered way from the PC due to bittorrent and copyrights. Why spend money making a game if everyone can get it for free? It's hard to copy and distribute console games and parents will buy their kids Halo whenever they scream.
The fact is that the studios still want to cater to the PC gamers but are tired of losing money. The studios have wised up financially and realized that the there is more money in console gaming and that the only thing people use computers for anymore is World of Warcraft and porn.

This is such a massive level of horse sh*t it can't even be explained with words. That just isn't true. People do pirate games, but the reason certain games don't sell well is because they just aren't very good.

The suck factor is indded a factor, but other than too much emphasis on piracy, I thought he pretty much nailed 1.) simplified development. I imagine testing is a lot easier when you only have to worry about one set of hardware as opposed to the million different computer configurations you have to jack with on PC. 2.) Nickel and Dime factor: COD on PC cost $49 up front, all additional content free. Same game on console costs $59 new, and after all the content downloads the games prolly getting close to $100. This isn't counting themes and all the other random junk people buy. 3.) Console audience is much larger. 4.) Piracy, although piracy isn't THAT much more difficult to do on a console... All those factors equals big $$$ returns for developers.
Once dedicated boxes hit consoles and they develop a pinpoint accurate aiming system....the only thing left to give into will be the wallet rape.
gg yourself :). Where we started was mine making points on the topic which evolved into an argument of: "you posted twice in a row nooblar", or "your site hurts my eyes stupid face", or your contribution. HE'S A ku FAN KILL HIM. I really don't think you dispute any of my comments on PC gaming's superiority for certain genre's like FPS, and we're in some agreement about the health of pc gaming.
