Morning all,

Was having a chat with a mate of mine who's not as lucky as some and he hates every November as there's always a handful of games that are released that are right up his street, but if he's lucky he can only purchase one, so off the back of that discussion, what is your one must have game released recently or in the coming month?

From the poll above I would probably choose Need For Speed, but Far Cry 3 is a very close contender, as is Assassins Creed 3... Literally spoilt for choice this fall.

I realised yesterday that this November is going to be costly for me. I've bought X-Com which is on it's way to me, I've been looking at buying Dishonored, Assassin's Creed 3 has just been released, and then there is Medal of Honor: Warfighter and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. There are probably some more that have slipped my mind.

I think my vote goes to AC3 for a must have game.

It depends what games he likes because there is a nice variation of games to choose from.

Me personally, it is Assassins Creed 3. I love the series and can't get enough of it. I mention it a lot but it is my favourite game series this generation.

A close second though would be either Far Cry 3 or Hitman Absolution.

Both look like they've improved a lot from their last games.

Ultimately he's made his choice (need for speed) but it provoked the thought to ask what Neowin's one game of choice would be.

Mine would probably be either Forza Horizon (although I'm still a long way to completing Forza 4!), need for speed or far cry 3. I will ultimately pick up most of these games but one of those three will be bought this month, probably alongside football manager 13.

Toss up between Forza Horizon and NFS: Most Wanted.

I will also be interested in Hitman once it's cheap enough for me to get stuck somewhere, never come back to it and not care that I've wasted my money.

Despite the gameplay issues with Far Cry 2 I still really enjoyed it and it looks like with Far Cry 3 they've addressed a lot of the criticism of the previous game. Although I love Dishonored and XCOM: Enemy Unknown I'm still most looking forward to Far Cry 3.

I'm going to say Far Cry 3......played FC2 for awhile but it got kinda stale with the way some of the mechanics worked, which seem to be much improved in FC3. I am definitely getting AC3 as well, but I'm getting that mostly to finish up the story along with the gameplay mechanics (once I finish the story in AC games they bore me enough that I stop playing them), but I'm more interested in FC3 gameplay than AC3 gameplay. No interest in Halo 4, mostly because it's Xbox exclusive and I don't have an xbox, but I never got into the Halo series to begin with. No interest in racing games cause I'm not a console gamer and don't have a wheel or controller for my PC (keyboard sucks for racing games). Already have Dishonored and Xcom so those aren't exactly November games for me. The ones I didn't mention I have no interest at all in.

    • Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge

      And Microsoft got walloped on here for what they were charging for the new Surface book. Not looking as bad now. This was inevitable as they have to maintain those Apple margins.

      Now 8GB of ram looks even worse in the Neo. I'm so happy I purchased 128GB of DDR 4 when I did.... paid $174. Upgraded my parents laptop to 32GB around the same time for $48. Luckily I have a TON of spare laptops. So i'm good on laptops for a while. I also have a lot of desktops too that I could use if i had to. Lets just hope nothing happens to my main 4 monitor couch workstation.

      I will keep my current devices for several years... no planning in upgrading until these devices stop working. Too pricey.

      Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge by Karthik Mudaliar Apple has raised the U.S. prices of several MacBook and iPad models, including the MacBook Neo, which it launched for $599 less than four months ago. The company’s cheapest laptop now starts at $699, while some MacBook Pro configurations have increased by $300. The changes affect the MacBook Neo, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iPad Air, and iPad Pro. Apple has not changed the hardware or storage included with these models, so customers are simply paying more for the same configurations. Here is how the new US pricing compares with the previous starting prices: Product Previous price New price Increase MacBook Neo $599 $699 $100 13-inch MacBook Air, 512GB $1,099 $1,299 $200 14-inch MacBook Pro, 1TB $1,699 $1,999 $300 16-inch MacBook Pro $2,699 $2,999 $300 11-inch iPad Air, 128GB $599 $749 $150 13-inch iPad Air, 128GB $799 $949 $150 11-inch iPad Pro, 256GB $999 $1,199 $200 13-inch iPad Pro, 256GB $1,299 $1,499 $200 The updated prices are already appearing on Apple’s U.S. online store. The MacBook Neo increase will probably attract the most attention. Apple introduced the laptop in March for $599, pitching it as a more affordable Mac for students and buyers considering Windows laptops or Chromebooks. It uses an A18 Pro processor and originally undercut Dell’s new $699 XPS 13 by $100. Following the increase, the two laptops now have the same starting price. The M5 MacBook Air has also lost the price Apple promoted when it launched in March. The 13-inch model arrived with 512GB of storage for $1,099, while Apple’s store now lists the MacBook Air range as starting at $1,299. The 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M5 chip and 1TB of storage has gone from $1,699 to $1,999. Apple has made similar changes to its iPads. The recently released M4 iPad Air, which launched at the same $599 starting price as its predecessor, now starts at $749 for the 11-inch version. The 13-inch version has risen from $799 to $949. The iPad Pro increases are larger in dollar terms. Apple’s 11-inch M5 iPad Pro now starts at $1,199, up from $999, while the 13-inch version has moved from $1,299 to $1,499. Both base models still include 256GB of storage. Apple blamed the increases on the rapidly rising cost of DRAM and NAND flash, which provide system memory and device storage. The company told Reuters that it had tried to shield customers from the increases but could no longer absorb them. “We have never seen a component price increase this much, this quickly,” Apple said. Tim Cook had already warned that price increases were coming. Cook said Apple’s existing component inventory had softened the immediate impact, but that higher memory costs would increasingly affect the company after the June quarter. Much of the pressure comes from the construction of AI data centers. Memory manufacturers are directing more production toward high-margin server products, leaving PC, tablet, and smartphone makers competing for the remaining supply. Apple has not said whether the new prices are temporary or whether further increases are planned. For now, the changes show that even Apple’s purchasing power has not been enough to keep the AI-driven memory shortage away from consumer devices.
