Upgrade Time

Distractions, Hobbies, Tech

I’ve been hemming and hawing about getting a new computer and I just saw the trailers for The Orange Box. Specifically Half Life 2, Episode 2 and Team Fortress 2. I am so going to play “THE HEAVY” because he’s dumb sexy.

    I’d say you are better off getting a console for gaming instead of a new computer. No driver issues, conflicts, etc etc. Plus it will look great on that new flat screen.

    1) If it’s not preceded by the words “Grand Theft Auto” it’s a game not worth talking about… unless it’s Max Payne.

    2) The day I buy a 360 is the day before GTA IV comes out… tick tock…

    3) The local VidStore is selling the entire GTA catalogue as a single package for less than I paid for San Andreas… fuckers.

    4) Have you seen the PS2 console reissue? It’s less than an inch thick and the same dimensions as a trade paperback…

    5) The last time I played Half-Life my heart nearly jumped out of my chest and stabbed me in the eye. I get way too intense on games like Half Life and Resident Evil.

    Half Life 2 runs surprisingly well on my 4 or 5 year old computer (dunno about the new additions though). I think I’ll get the Xbox 360 version though, just cuz it’s easier than dealing with computer stuff. You should totally get an Xbox 360 instead of a computer (but warning: It might die)

    The computer might have to get upgraded for Spore, though.

    Ugh, come play World of Warcraft with me. Be a gnome, take engineering as your profession, and make robots.
