Hi all, I got my PC from pcspecilalist back in 2011 with the following specs: Processor (CPU) AMD PHENOM II X4 965 (3.40GHz/8MB CACHE/AM3) - BLACK EDITION Motherboard ASUS® M5A78L-M/USB3: M-ATX, USB 3.0, SATA 3.0Gb/s Memory (RAM) 8GB SAMSUNG DDR3 DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 4GB) Graphics Card 1GB...

Has anyone been playing Tribes? It can be downloaded for free from here: https://account.hirezstudios.com/tribesascend/ It's free and very, very good. It's been getting high review scores and is probably one of the most unique and fun FPS games I've played in years. Reminds me of the Quake and...

So yeah my girlfriend made me go to the cinema with her. The film was awful, but there was a hilarious 10 minute scene where Bella's spine snaps before she gives birth and is given a rather gore fuelled caesarian. I documented it here for anyone who is interested: http://mattyp22.blogspot.com/...

FFFFFUUUUUUUU TESCO!! I am freaking out. I am stuck at work, Tesco was the only place I could of local that would be selling it, and now I may have to face the reality of getting home Skyrim-less. How can I be expected to work under these conditions?! 100s of copies of MW3!! They bloody...

I've been on their website but I can't find a sort of 'log in' area to pay off some of the loan for my PC? Is there an FAQ or something someone can point me toward?

What do you guys think? I was thinking that a controller would be good for Tomb Raider/Assassins Creed type games. I am thinking of getting Arkham City for my PC and I just can't image how a mouse/keyboard combo would work with a 3rd person game. Do you guys have a controller for your PC? If...

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but do you think it would help the forum look a bit more accessible if the sub-forums in 'other topics' were combined? Why not just discuss things like mobile phones, motoring, sports, jokes, photography in the 'general discussion' section to tidy the...

What games throughout history could you just not put down? The ones where you feared may make your eyes start bleeding and burst your bowels? A select few of mine have to be: Spyro the Dragon 3 Banjo and Kazooie Battle Realms Quake 3 Unreal Tournament Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, 3. Goldeneye...

http://edition.cnn.com/2011/10/04/opinion/bennett-men-in-trouble/index.html?hpt=hp_c1 This article is doing the rounds today. In it he basically says women are going to overtake men because we're playing too many videogames. It is pretty right wing stuff, with little basis in reality, so...

I've been pointed towards http://www.fraps.com/ as a good program to record gameplay on PC. Anyone got anything better programs that they use? Thanks!

It's out now, for some reason the open beta for PC is taking a lot longer to get up. To be honest I don't like it. Apart from the graphics it seems like a step backwards. They've removed the unlimited sprint for some of the classes, or at least it seems to be for me. Which is terrible for BF3...

I was wondering if this is possible? Or do I need a capture card? Basically is there any way I can capture my gameplay from Xbox onto my PC easily and cost efficiently? I want to try and get up a Gears of War 3 gameplay channel as I happen to be pretty good and thought it might be fun.

I've tried plugging my speakers and headset into the computer speaker socket and it doesn't work, no sound at all is coming out. It works if I plug the speakers into my monitor instead but now I've just got some new turtle beaches and they require me to use the PC soundcard. I've tried all 4...

We've all seen them. Where you begin typing a question, only for google to make you do a double take at one of it's strange suggestions. One of my favourites is "why are <insert skin colour>" and let Google fill in the blanks. White people being aliens is great. Of course the weirdest one is...

I have: Processor: AMD Phenom X4 970 Ram: 8gb Graphics Card: Nvidia 560ti I have managed to get Crysis on 'very high' for most settings apart from 1 without slowing down my PC which I'm hoping puts me in good stead. I'm pretty sure I wont be able to get BF3 on 'very high' but am hoping I may...

Hi Everyone. I've seen the offer on the website, when was the exact date it started? I only wonder because I bought my PC from PCS with a nvidia 560ti so I should have been eligible for it? Did I get my PC just a little too soon for the offer or something? :(

Does anyone here blog at all? I've made one fairly recently in an attempt to get my comedy writing honed a bit. I find it flows pretty well when a life is as random and weird as my own. So here it is http://www.mattyp22.blogspot.com/ Feel free to add any blogs, be there yours or someone else's...

I loved Modern Warfare 1, and enjoyed MW2, and as PC games are normally cheaper I am considering MW3 for PC (only after i've played BF3 'til the disk is dust however). Is there a big difference between the COD games on console and PC? I've always had the impression that they are mainly aimed...

I was wondering what PC games do you consider absolute must haves? I really only play RTS and FPS games on my PC currently, and am just looking for some suggestions as to some other games to get into. What PC exclusive (or games that are far superior on PC) would you guys recommend? I am...

Hi guys, I recently bought Borderlands from steam during the sale where it was £5 but when I tried to play it yesterday it was running at like 1fps. Honestly I couldn't even use the mouse it was so slow. I tried changing the settings but even on 800x600 it wouldn't play (I normally play games on...
