I've been also thinking about getting BF3 and I wanna order it tonight. Does anyone have an extra Back to Karkand code they'd like to share? It'd be greatly appreciated :D PM me if you would like.

I didn't play through Dead Space 1 all the way because I got bored of it. I'm not a huge fan of corridor shooters like Doom 3 but I thought Bioshock was scarier just because of the atmosphere and the splicers are genuinely psychotic. Dead Space didn't scare me after a few moments where monsters popped up, but maybe I didn't go far enough into the game. Like people said earlier, Dead Space is more startles whereas Bioshock, I thought, had a much scarier atmosphere overall.

Also, be mindfull of threads posted. This exact thread question was asked earlier today Here

The prices are roughly the same right now so that isn't an issue. But thanks for your input. I posted a new topic because that user is playing at 720p and I wanted to know if the extra RAM in the 5770 would make a difference when playing at 1080p.

I have two options right now, either a GTX 460 768mb or a HD 5770 1gb. I know that the GTX 460 1GB is better than both but that's about 50 bucks more expensive right now. I game at 1080p so will the extra memory on the 5770 get better framerates than a 460 or should I just go with the GTX 460?

I didn't think Dead Space was that scary at all but Bioshock freaked me out so i just depends on you I guess. I played Doom 3 when I was 10 so to me the monsters jumping out at you wasnt anything I hadn't seen before.

Yeah but is it worth the $60 extra over a 5770?

Haha yeah he can usually spot me a PSU or hard drive here and there he doesn't mind. It's a local business not a large chain so they have more leeway. So should I get a GTX 460? How would an HD 4870 or HD 5770 be at 1080p?

I have a pretty crappy 400W PSU but I can upgrade for free because I have a friend who works in a computer store.

Does anyone know if ATI or Nvidia are coming out with new cards soon. I'm getting a brand new 1080p LCD soon and I thought that I should get a new card to go with it. I'm looking at around the $150 dollar range. I was looking at an HD 5770 but should I wait or just go for it?

I want a game set in Colombia during Pablo Escobar's reign over the drug cartel. It would be a fun, unique, and different than anything else out there.
