holocaust bloopers posted:600-700 bucks. Do not cheap out on the power supply and motherboard. Choosing the right Case/PSU/Motherboard is the key to it being an 8 year machine rather than a 2 year machine. Point being, don't buy an i5 Dell to get you by for 400 bucks, spend 600 and get an upgradeable i7, even if you go low on the ram and peripherals.

Handsome Ralph posted:Sooooo Obsidian announced a new game at the Game Awards last night Late, but holy poo poo Also, my 2019 gaming goal is to get through my backlog and buy myself a Switch as a graduation/licensure gift next Christmas so I can play Mario and Zelda (and also Red Dead 2). I don't know how deep my backlog is, but its easily 25-30 games from around Sim City/Arkham Asylum and includes the Skyrim re-release. Gonna be a long year.

A Bad Poster posted:No Fry's around her sadly. One of the dudes at best buy was like "oh we price match" and I was like "cool" but we got a to the register and he checked the Amazon listing and was like "oh, yeah, see, so we only price match if it's being sold by Amazon themselves, not just fulfilled by them" which is dumb as hell. I've obviously googled this while talking, but the headphone situation remains murky. Can I use headphones while playing docked?

I think this is Week 2 of owning a Switch, and even though I'm at a point in Odyssey where I think I have to back track because I went through a checkpoint (Cappy getting abducted), it was a very good purchase. It is a snow day, I am now going to play Zelda for probably 12 hours.

Dude McAwesome posted:Hey dudes, can someone explain the appeal of Diablo? I played through it on Xbox and it was just button mashing for what felt like the entire time. I can't speak for everyone, but sometimes you just need a button masher to bust the hell out of some demons. Also some of it is probably nostalgia for everyone in this age group from D2. e: Also, I haven't played it yet, but definitely downloaded the Switch port of Super Bomberman. e2: At least I thought I did, it does not appear in my program list though. That's annoying and sure ain't paying 40 bucks for Bomberman (yet). SquirrelyPSU fucked around with this message at 18:55 on Feb 20, 2019 |
