that means also seven hours for me in normal, or soldier, because i'm the kind of gamer who stands and gawks at the graphics as you know, and shoots stuff to see how far they rendered the world ^^

it is a gorgeous game, the most beautiful yet, and much better than Crysis 2, but yeah, if you expect literary brilliance then obviously this isn't it!

Slacking again, been about 2 months since I played. Moved to a bigger place and working more so just haven't had much time for it lately. Xbox still not even hooked up. To think I activated my 12month I got (deals on Neowin (Y) ) last month and haven't even touched it is such a waste!

Need to jump on hooking it up this weekend at least!

Hi everyone, good to see there was some activity here still heh heh. Shotta, I hear you, good thing my Gold is about to expire - sure won't be renewing it. It's good to see your enthusiasm Subject Delta, if you enjoy it, keep it up!

 

I'm officially done with Xbox, it's been a good run. The recent debacle with Xbox One worldwide availability and region locking (as some of you may know I'm originally from the US with a US account but work all over the world) was a horrible start to the generation on their part. Then my current 360's power supply died and service was beyond incompetent. Two weeks and I still haven't received my replacement - which they charged me over the phone on the spot two weeks ago! 

 

Anyway, it's time to say goodbye to Xbox, it's been a good run. Canceled my pre-order for Xbox One, just pre-ordered a PS4 and a bunch of games. These people are idiots. They're just as bad as me, who had the girl of my dreams right in front of me and ignored her for months, and then when i finally woke up to it she was like too late pal, there's other guys out there. But this is just me being an idiot - Microsoft really can't afford to do this if they are to remain a viable money-making business in gaming.

 

Sorry for ranting, and take care! See you at the Playstation section heh heh  :)

I completely agree with you, neo. I've loved Microsoft for many years and the Xbox was my main man, unfortunately, I will be investing in a PS4 and sticking to Steam as well. Only way I will be renewing my sub with LIVE or getting an Xbox One is if someone pays for it for me. It's gonna be a sad day during Xbox One launch. :'(

Hey Delta, sorry for taking my sweet time to post. To put it mildly, I've mellowed out since then on the whole Xbox thing. A friend suggested changing regions to where I live. You know what, it helped. Stuff is more affordable, new features opened up, I can even get the free games with Gold...im not endorsing regional restrictions, those are ###### and need to go away. But I can't lie, I enjoy Xbox and as I get older im tired of being angry.

Plus MS saying Kinect isn't needed is a great step in the right direction. So, will keep my Gold and 360, but still getting PS4 first. Whenever viable, will likely get an Xbox One.

Besides, if DrunknMunky came back, anything's possible!

    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Why does this kind of tactic not surprise me?
    • They used AI based TOOLS to convert the JavaScript engine (the main rendering engine is still C++) and it was not fully automated but was human reviewed. Other subsystems will be looked into to also be converted to Rust in the future. I have no problem with any of that.
    • Why not just bring back Outlook Express at this point? It did everything I needed as a home email app.
    • No we just do it manually, our contact methods are calls, chats and e-mails. Whoever is doing the e-mail task for the day, deals with the e-mail, logs the appropriate ticket, adds the reference to the source e-mail and then files it in the appropriate folder. At least that's how it's supposed to work
