Except for RAM, my PC is pretty decent. I have a QuadCore Q6600 CPU (old, but good enough to run any game at pretty high graphics, even the powerhouses) and a GTX 560 TI. Games like The Witcher 2, Battlefield 3 and Sleeping Dogs run pretty good at 1680x1050 with most details at high (maybe without some DX11 stuff like tesselation). Sure, I'm not getting 60 fps, but it's always well over 30.

Planetside 2 however, is barely playable on my PC. I checked the requirements and it wanted a GTS 250 and dual core CPU as minimum, so I downloaded it to try it out. However, as soon as I started it, my computer started getting noisy like a motherfucker and the load times were horrendous. Even at the menus it will halt for a long time. I eventually got into a game, but the game was just not playable. Everytime I took a step or touched the mouse, the game would halt for a number of seconds before letting my character move for literally two seconds before it would halt again.

So I restarted my PC (it ran really slow) and then tried again, but this time I put everything to low (but kept native rez) and also started fraps to see the framerate. I got into a game, and it was already WAY better, and by that I mean that it was somehwat playable. I seem to get about 80 fps with everything at low, which would be great if the fucking game wouldnt halt every 2 steps (although this time is nowehere near as bad as last time).

After about 2 minutes of moving around in the starting area, it started running smoother, so I took a ship and started flying it. It controls just like the helicopters in battefield 3 so I had no problem with it since I played alot of that game. But as soon as I got out of that area, the game started halting again and I crashed in a hill.

After checking the requirements again, I noticed that the game does indeed ask for 4 GB of RAM, so for you people out there that have 2 GB, know that the game may run like shit. Mine is low frequency too (DDR 2 667 Mhz because its an old motherboard) so it may run better on higher frequency, but still, be wary.

I am fucking pissed. I could play this game at 80 fps if I had some more goddamn RAM, and for a motherboard like mine is hard to find compatible RAM now.

Also I think something happened back in late 2007 that changed peoples' attitudes about the GameSpot brand

No you didn't !!!

Some crazy stats, though not too surprising. I just hope if GS does kick the bucket that all their staff doesn't get sent over here.

Ig Gamespot kicks the bucket, CBS will want to turn Giant Bomb in the new Gamespot.

@Brad: Me too. Pretty fucking awesome. Playing it on 1024X768 with details at medium wasn't very fun tho...

Ironically, I cannot stand negative, antisocial, or depressing people anymore~ When I go out, I want to hang with my bros (including my brothers) and just have fun. Guess what? We do! Even though I am in a weird transition period in my life where we cannot hang out as much as we can anymore; it just makes it that much more important when we get together~

You have changed man, that sentence there shows that you arent as you once were. (which you are happy with)

But I am a depressing guy, and I dont want to become someone that cant stand this type of people, since at that point that wouldnt be me. I dont want to dislike my kind. This is but one of the ways that I would change into one of you. And at that point I would cease to exist. There would be someone else in my place, an impostor.

As I said in one of my previous posts, I don't want to stop hating people and change. I want to always remember what I've been thru and why I hate others. I don't want to become like them and turn into one of them.

@Freshbandito: Even if I don't make them feel bad, I make myself feel betteer.

Then you need to grow the fuck up. High school is over and it's usually shitty for everyone. You're not some unusual case. Bullying happens to everyone. By being a complete shithead towards that woman, you denied yourself the CURE TO YOUR LONELINESS YOU DOLT. If you continue acting like a prick to make people feel bad, blaming them for things they had nothing to do with, you will remain alone forever. It's seriously baffling no one you know in real life has called you out, unless they did and subsequently stopped talking to you. I got picked on mercilessly in middle school. Fell into depression and nearly ended it all. I got over and didn't let it destroy me like it's apparently done to you. If you're unwilling to do anything to fix your shitty attitude, stay home because I would prefer never meeting you.

ì wouldnt want to meet you either, traitor.
