That looks pretty much like my current computer when I first bought it 3.5 years ago with a slightly worse video card. I now have GTX 560 Ti and while it's still a pretty good video card by today's standards, the Core2 just isn't a good processor anymore with some of the most intense games. You might be able to get by with a video card update but it won't last for long. In the long run, you're better off with a whole new build because a new video card on that rig would probably only extend the life of your PC until next generation games come out which will likely be within a year.

1) How is the Governor still alive? Do they really need to drag that character out even more?

2) Why the FUCK would they go back to the prison instead of Woodbury with all those new people. It's not like they are threatened by the three man army of the Governor.

3) Carl is an utter cunt.

4) Nobody gives a shit about Andrea, you don't need to give her almost half the episode of screen time. Just kill her and be done with it, for fuck sake.

5) Herp derp Maggie and Glenn are suddenly commandos.

Someone needs to rein these horrible AMC writers in. Absolutely shat over the comics.

Or better yet, get the Telltale crew in.

What a load of shit. I'm out for season 4.

Hmmm, love people who bash the show with some ridiculous reasons...

1 - The Governor just started getting good. They just started to break the skin with him and he was finally looking like the Governor us comic book fans know and love (to hate.) I was hoping they didn't kill him off because it felt too soon.

2 - They took them to their home? Not sure what is so shocking. Think about it, the group just found out the Governor killed his entire army himself and is down to 3 people. As far as they're concerned, the war is likely over, or at least down to just 3 nut jobs.

3 - Agreed. =P

4 - I never understood the hate for Andrea. She's trying to have everyone survive, she's a character that believes there can still be peace in the world. Everyone bashes her because she makes these stupid decisions when ya, in hindsight, they are stupid, but that's because WE know everything else that's going on around it, she DOES NOT. Put yourself in her shoes, everyone I talk to about a hatred for Andrea can never seem to do that.

5 - They're commandos? I didn't see them kill a single person. What makes them commandos all of a sudden? Because they had riot gear and assault rifles and generated a lot of chaos to scare the Woodbury army out of the prison? Then mine and your definitions of the word "commando" are completely different. If anything, they were terrorists far before they were commandos in that scene.

I do agree that this half of the season was bad compared to the rest of the series so far but I thought the last 3 episodes of the season (particularly the one with Morgan and the season finale) were great.

I kinda of agree and kind of disagree. I do agree that games are more of the same nowadays and it drives me insane. Sequels are more expansion packs than anything else. One game from one genre feels exactly the same as a completely different game by a different developer and publisher in the same genre...

However, there are a couple games that actually do something different and do it well, like the Bioshock series IMO or Dishonored for something else more recent. It sucks that they are few and far between, but there are some there.

As for why don't we speak up? I do all the time and I'm constantly called a cry baby for "whining" that games feel the same, despite the fact that it's not whining and it's just voicing an opinion that differs from others and have to attack me to support their opinion instead of actually giving good reasons supporting their opinion.

I like those ads, sometimes you see stuff that you never heard of before that catches your interest. Or maybe there's an old game that was just put on Steam that you never knew was going on Steam but have been wanting to (re)play. I personally go through them all, it only takes a few seconds and sometimes you find a game you really enjoy.

Yes to keyboard. Not my newest one since it's actually a good one but my old keyboards would see buttons flying and the stands never lasted very long.

No, there are plenty of free guides online that are so much better. GameFAQs, YouTube videos, game wikis, you name it. They're all better than any strategy guide you pay for.

This - I want to wait until we here more about the console specs before building a new computer just so we know what we're getting into for the next several years of gaming since it's basically limited to console power at this point. Besides, at that time, you can buy it all on Black Friday or Cyber Monday and save even more money or build a more powerful machine for the same price! :)

It's hard to say mate, do you like console exclusive games and titles? if so, I suggest you wait off on building that PC, learn more about the PS4 then decide later this year, besides in 6 months time when PS4 is getting ready to come out, that 800-1000 dollar computer you are looking to build will be 100-200 dollars cheaper ;)
