  1. Regarding quad core support, in the end its really what you want to play, more and more high end games are taking the 2+ core approach when they're coding. You should probably drop the idea of dual cores especially if you're on laptops. Battlefield Bad Company 2 for example, will be bottlenecked by even high clocked dual cores
  2. Do you still have that same old laptop?
  3. Thanks for noticing, I don't think an innovative battery would have helped here. lol I originally thought it was a menu glitch, because changing it in-game didn't make that much noticeable difference at the spot I was watching, places like my barn roof haha, then I ini edited yesterday, still didn't work, and did a little look around. same thing happened to this ATI user AA only includes some of the objects and distance matters 16xAA http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/95771487-4.jpg didn't notice any performance hit... jagged shit is in the games yo
  4. haha, I expected some sort of desktop replacement hate. I definitely have to plug my ass in if I game, but hey, you can find an outlet anywhere nowadays, I have 3 switchable GPUs, two is for gaming, one is for power saving, I can run for around 2-3 hours browsing or using Word, it's not that bad. Plus having one machine is nice, no file transfers. I have some sort of bad habit about being able to move where I game, took advantage of our campus classrooms with projectors, easy to move to cafeterias, coffee houses, friends' houses, vacations, short trips, basically anything and everything It's just a luxury you choose to spend money on? You do admit there's less performance in general then. About extra battery-life, you can always use that extra 100+ dollar you're paying if you got a Mac on extra battery packs, I understand that reduces portability just a little more, but isn't that just another preference thing where would you rather spend more money for convenience or less money and do a little extra work? Personally I've never had a need for even 4+ battery life. I don't know if it's just me, but the Macbook pros aren't that much lighter than a windows laptop by feel. Batteries have their lifespan, I know some macbooks have irremovable permanent batteries, then again you might already be getting a new macbook by the time that battery is even anywhere near the end of its lifespan. I do like the concept of the Mac batteries though. I should find those pages I read about an IBM thinkpad vs Macbook Air, it really made you see what's up, but that would be redundant because even some Apple fans hates Macbook Air. The problem is apple sells their brand, just because there's an apple on the thing, it's more expensive than it should be. Because it's "the cool thing to have". Not to mention those Apple commercials made by FOX. In the end you should get what suits you the most, they all have their pros and cons, some just have more of one or the other.
  5. http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/95359526-4.jpg you can face forward as a passenger on quads... Yeah, neostead for fun, lol
  6. tl;dr In regards to laptops: When I got this alienware laptop, I checked the apple site, considering it an option, well, turned out the same price gave me only 1 graphics card, not only that, that graphics card is worse than two of the three I'm getting with the AW, the CPU clocks were lower for the macbook too, bigger harddrive though, but it's not like I'm going to need harddrive space. I wish I had screenshotted But I guess I didn't need to, a quick check on Apple and AW seems to show me with similar price range, you'll get more from AW and if you're not looking for the top of the line, Macbook vs Generic HP Here's the pics: http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/6783/10712778.pnghttp://img402.imageshack.us/img402/9863/macbook.png Notice the better specs on the cheaper HP? with 100 dollars more, it upgrades to the same GT330M as the thousand dollar macbook pro, and there's a free upgrade to 4GB ram I'd put my gfx card in the oven before I run windows on a macbook, too much overheating problems Forgot to mention, beauty is really a preference thing, I personally find the dull curve of the Mac to be... well.. dull, so that really shouldn't be an argument at all

    Death Note

    yeah you onemanga'd that b*tch I never got into manga, sometimes the drawings are too erratic, and you have to turn pages, wtf man? It would have been great if it ended at Spoiler! --Click Here to View!--L's death
  16. That's because of ZOE's dong, you have a dong that big, you'll get plenty of showbiz

    Gackt

    L'Arc en Ciel has that badass Full Metal Alchemist song, it's soooooooo good. Inuyasha has good ending themes? lol
  18. psh we are gonna brag nao? I sniped the pilot out of a helicopter with a shotgun before, too bad you console players get a solid cross for special shotgun shell instead of a hollowed out cross like us PC players. and yeah, needs more AA, a good squad can rape the whole map, perhaps faster tracer velocity, but not as fast as normal bullets though? it'd make it TOO easy

    Velociraptors are easy, what about an attractive member of the opposite sex, chains, kinky eheh
  24. Yeah, after owning the game on PC for around two weeks, I've grown tired of all the blah things in this game. They recently nerfed the noobtube's refill rate from ammo boxes, that's good, but now you get a bunch of M60 Rambo medics jump sniping people with iron sight, recons sniping with neostead+improved slug+magnum ammo+mortar scope spotting and last but not least hackers. It wouldn't even be that bad if I could at least find a bunch of punkbuster servers, but not only do they have server hacks that makes pb disabled server bypass the pb filter, its even worse because pb doesn't ban everything... even with all that, if the admins are doing their job right, there wouldn't be this much problem, but these admins are hacking too, afraid of pb kicking them off of their own servers, wtf? After fixing the yaw invert bug with joysticks, flying went pretty well for me, too stiff to feel real though, I heard the console versions got it easy, different flying mechanisms and everything, at least there's no built in aimbot on the console version like Halo. Some guy made a video about shitty hitbox So it's either shitty analog stick aiming or play with hackers, how does a guy know exactly when and where you spawn when he's on the other side of a wall? meh DICE meh Edit: Did I forget to mention http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/94354748-4.jpg
