the true gamers can realize that all systems have thier pros, and thier cons, and will respect and appreciate them for thier unique atrributes and contributions to the gaming world. besides im with 187-boo on this one. the hardcore PC gamers will already be running top notch PCs, which will also include knowing that the newest is not always the best as some games dont even use some of the technology that is being released. But, most PC gamers have thier systems build to take on the next years worth of games if not more and handle them on high quality. Thats how my PC is built, to handle the biggest pulls, and deliver! once you get your PC up to a level like that, its actually not that bad to keep on top of. As for console gaming, i play 360 and Wii, and guess what, they each have thier place. thats right, THEY ARE ALL GOOD AND ALL HAVE GOOD QUALITIES!!

i have a P4 Core2 Duo (3.16ghz) 4gig DDR3 Ram (10k) a 500 gig Sata Gforce 8800 GT 512 PICe 2.0 and in heavy battles (60+ players) the frame rate is still bareable. I am still able to cast/heal players without any adverses effects from the mass maount of players on my screen. If i get 100+ people on my screen, it can get hairy.

I with you Royale, I always picked toad. he was one of the best.

Solar Empire...never heard of it, but totally gonna try it now. RTS will never die, but they are getting harder and harder to learn. LOL. Bring it! TIME TO SEPERATE THE BOYS FROM THE MEN!
