Man these look amazing.

Hope we get to see them used in an unplugged!

Check out Dungeon Keeper or Dungeon Keeper 2, really great strategy game.

alternate controllers, whether they be hotas/wheel/razer hydra or weird VR stuff.

I wouldn't put it under 'fun to have' but a mouse bungie is possibly the best 10$ I ever spent any anything mouse related.

Guilty pleasure has to be mechanical keyboards though. There's such variety and the minute differences are really enjoyable. Super interesting niche piece of gear.

Heck, you might even like splurging on a nice chair.

Oh yeah my other guilty pleasure is big honkin coolers like the NH-D14 and NH-D15.

I wouldn't really care, the dotabuff rankings are wonky at best and very exploitable.

MMR or Tournament winnings are the most reliable gauge for skill, even if they're not perfect either.

Is that type of skill ceiling important to a lot of people even if you'll probably never hit it?

I'm thinking, CS/Dota/Tetris/SC2/SC:BW type of expertise and mastery that show up in some games.

I've noticed that a lot of the games I get into are ones I'm awful at but still enjoy checking out the pro scene or twitch streamers who are mindbogglingly good.

Dota, and before that Battlefield 2, before that CS 1.6

The lows in dota are loooow, but the highs are hiiiiiiiiiigh. Not to mention the pro scene blowing up and being super interesting as well.

Hope it helps some folks.

Never understood the type of people that get affected by that sort of garbage coming at them on the internet though. Maybe it's because I grew up on the internet in some pretty vile places and have learned to brush that dirt off my shoulder as it were.

Owell, whatever folks need to cope; just hope it doesn't turn into advocacy for personal identification on everything.

I've got AKG 142's but want to get the massdrop k7xx's if they ever sell another batch.

A picture of your motherboard install/layout might not hurt.

You've got the display you're using set to the proper input as well as powered on correct? Do the fans spin up on your video card? It could be one small thing that slipped your mind while building it that will make you feel silly after you find it. (Forgot many io panels in many builds)

I'll get in on this! Haven't had a boxed copy of Warcraft since Wrath.

Hope to see some post-release quick look of WoD when you hit 100 Rorie!
