Oh one more thing about SH Homecoming, why do the face models look way worse than the PS2 models? What the hell happened with that. You go from the best face models in gaming to something worse than you had on an older system.

Nintendo stock went up only cause Nintendo mentioned pokemon app on ipad. In reality its just the card game, its getting an app. But the words Nintendo and Ipad made stupid investors go crazy and the stock skyrocketed.

Nintendo should release some random shit on istore every month. The brand new SUPER MARIO trivia game IPAD APP coming soon.

The pokemon card game isn't a bad idea. If they want to keep going in that direction they should do a shitty 2-D Mario temple run game where all you do it tap to jump. That'd sell stupid amounts.

Seems about on par with my setup.  Why no windows 8.1 though?  I've had 7 before, but 8 is just as good.  It seems as if the windows curse has been broken (the one about every other installment sucking).  Is the GPU the boost edition or not?  I got the 650ti boost, and the boost editions should be well beyond the regular Titans for only a small extra cost.

I greatly prefer Win 7.

Not sure, but the spec list has a boost clock listed:

EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti with G-SYNC Support 2GB GDDR5 128bit, Dual-Link, DVI-I, HDMI, DP Graphics Card

  • Base Clock: 1020 MHz
  • Boost Clock: 1085 MHz
  • Memory Clock: 5400 MHz Effective
  • CUDA Cores: 640
  • 2048MB GDDR5 128bit Memory
  • 300 watt or greater power supply required
  • Microsoft DirectX 12 API (feature level 11_0) Support
  • NVIDIA SHIELD-Ready, NVIDIA G-SYNC-Ready, 12% Increased Fan Size
  • NVIDIA TXAA, NVIDIA GPU Boost 2.0, NVIDIA PhysX, NVIDIA FXAA, NVIDIA Adaptive Verticle Sync, NVIDIA Surround, Support for three concurrent displays; dual-link DVI, HDMI, and Displayport 1.2, NVIDIA 3D Vision Ready,NVIDIA CUDA Technology, PCI express 3.0

GME was right SH Homecoming is really awesome. This is totally classic Silent Hill.

You must have played a different game than the one I tried.

A new, cheaper PS3 is launching in Japan next week

Its too bad they don't redesign the controller to make it more like the PS4 pad, instead of just remodeling the system.

Nothing is WRONG with it. It just felt so generic and soulless, like someone trying to copy someone else's passion often does.

I googled it, it seems that there is no boost version of the 750ti yet.  Apparently it's about as capable as my GPU, but consumes little over half the power.  Not being a hardcore PC gaming enthousiast, I can say that I am very happy with 650ti Boost and I assume yours will serve you just as well.

Edit: oh, and I was very skeptical about Win8.1 when I bought my PC as well, but I haven't regretted it since.  It's true, it's a bit scizophrenic, but it performs just as well as Win7.

Ubisoft says Wii U owners don't buy Assassin's Creed They want Just Dance - Watch Dogs the only Mature game they are publishing on it

Well this is sad. From what I've been reading today AC3 sold in similar numbers to Just Dance 2014, yet what Ubisoft has taken away is that Wii U owners are interested in Just Dance but not AC. Seems he's come to this conclusion from Just Dance Wii (not Wii U) sales, where it still sells well. Wii software sales make up 11% of all Ubisoft sales for the last fiscal year, higher than XB1 or PS4.

So:

The company isn’t abandoning Nintendo entirely. Rather, it is simply shifting its focus on the platform. “What we see is that they are very interested in Just Dance, very interested by other kinds of games," Guillemot says. “So what we are trying to do is to focus more on the types of games they are interested in.”

If this means more Rayman Legends and Child of Light type games, that would be cool. if it means Just Dance every year and nothing else... eh
