yeah, i've never seen nmh at a walmart

Interestingly, thats where I got my copy today.  But not at the one in town.  I was kinda surprised...  Oh well, employee discount

Also picked up a game called Cryostasis, which I heard a few people on the Penumbra boards say was good.  Installing that right now

if this is sarcasm then yes actually, it probably is just you being closed-minded. people making sarcastic jokes about being closed-minded is usually a really good indicator of someone being closed-minded about something. shrugging it off, heh, yeah i get it IDIOTS, it's just a piece of shit, ya understand?

if you aren't being sarcastic then sorry, i hope i didn't annoy you but it's true for times when people do act like this.

although i know 0 about heavy rain.

I was being sarcastic. But this comment makes no sense since you know 0 about heavy rain. It's a game that is coming off really, really pretentious. I've looked a lot into it, and it just looks like one huge bore. :\

it does look bad:

it's the resurrection ('new wave') of mid-nineties interractive media games. one thinks of homer. I'M ON FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sweet Jesus...  Playing No More Heroes 2, and I found the first 2 ranked bosses annoyingly frustrating.

The first one, after I got him down to 1/4 of his health, I couldn't even see him to avoid his missile attack, and most of the time, I would get a few steps out of attack range and he'd hit me with it, knocking me back to the other side of the room (where I cant see him because of the moving scenery)

The second guy, in the Giant Robot, I knocked him down to half health or so and barely got hit.  After using my second special attack though, he became 1000x more aggressive and kept knocking me back.  He killed me about 3 times when he was one hit away from dead, and I still had 2/3 of my health left.

Other than that I've been having fun with it.

As for Cryostasis, I only have 2 complaints.

1: Its REALLY FUCKING LINEAR. Pretty much follow this path, interact with this dead guy to "save his life in the past" continue down the path, kill some dudes, etc
2: The flashlight turns off every time you hit a loading screen or interact with one of the dead guys.  This may sound like a small complaint but some areas are so dark that you can barely see without the damn thing on

apart from that, it's pretty cool too.

Well, my dad got new PC parts and we put them together. He got an AMD Phenom 2 550 X2 and we got a motherboard that allows you to unlock 2 other cores. So he got a quad core processor for £64. It's really fast too.

With that he got 2 gigs DDR3 at 1600Mhz and an ATI Radeon 5770 that does DX11.

Have just spent the last 2 hours playing Crysis Warhead on all-enthusiast settings. So incredible to see it in real life and not just on youtube videos where people post FRAPS captures of Crysis to boast about how big their rig is.

To be fair to Crysis it's a good game and I enjoy it a lot. There's a lot more fun to be had than in GTA.

Just downloaded fl0w from the Playstation store because it's FREE until 9 pm PST today and gave it a good 5 minutes of playtime. Definetely need to get a better feel for the controls because right now I can't seem to control how I move.

Sounds like the first one. but I have not played the second one yet.

yeah its the first one. I gave in and changed the difficulty to easy. The whole game's a breeze now. Just beat it. I feel empty though...

have you had any issues with the 5770?!

if i use latest drivers my computer goes to hell :'(!!!

None at all, all the parts worked out the box. The motherboard cost more than the processor though so if it broke I would be pretty disappointed. Compatibility seems good. Asus being good for a change.
