Thanks. Like I said, they are great guys. The latter is a very good friend of mine. The former is a friend but it’s more of a vitriolic friendship.
I would like consoles more but with the xbone and the cod fags and the fps bullshit, PC gaming seems to be the clear winner. Nintendo excluded as Nintendo are the gods of console gaming and are just having a bit of a speed bump. It’ll get better.

I have a 2GB Card that runs it at near max settings with half AA settings at 26 min.
How much space you have on your card doesn’t really matter unless you are playing something like GTA.

I have a friend who is a fucking elitist about PC gaming. He’s an ok guy, mostly. But he will not shut up about this shit.
Another friend of mine recently built his own PC using bursary money.
I’m not going on Skype for a while. Don’t want to deal with that crap
I had a unique experience with a PC game once. I think it was Splinter Cell Conviction, but don’t quote me on that. I bought the game from a clearance bin for 10 bucks, thinking it was such a great deal. I got it home and installed it, and even though my computer had more than the required hardware to play it, it ran like absolute crap. Pissed, but not exactly torn apart over the loss of 10 bucks, I put it aside and forgot about it.
A few years down the road I bought a brand new computer and decided to try my luck with it once more. Lo and behold, it worked. I played the first mission and I got a message telling me it hoped I enjoyed the trial version and would have to register it for an additional fitty bucks to keep playing.
So, feeling dejected and scammed, I found a serial crack of the game, cracked it, and continued playing. I got about halfway through the second mission, and it hit me: I just had to crack a game I legally bought fair and square from a store.
At that point I uninstalled it, took it to work and fed it to the paper shredder that’ll also do cds and floppy discs, and to this day have never bought a PC game ever again (Emphasis on bought a PC game ever again).
